Let's stop glamorising self-employment - it's f*cking hard

Leaving corporate and starting your own business is hard.

Add burnout into the mix, and leaving corporate to start a business with your confidence at rock bottom, your decision making abilities having left you, and the fear of reaching burnout again meaning that you don't want to take as many risks or push yourself too hard, then starting your own business can feel like trying to walk a tightrope with one broken leg and both hands tied behind your back.

The good news is that it can be done, and like me you can find yourself completely and utterly unemployable and loving what you're building and creating - but, the promises of this business building being easy, glamorous, and frameworks that promise you overnight success, don't help - especially if your burnout isn't being factored in your business growth, your strategy, your energy levels, and everything else that burnout impacts in your life.

I'm talking about this, and more, in this week's episode of FRAZZLED.

And the quiz I mention can be found here.

Same time next week.
