I Quit My Perfect Job in a Pandemic... Here's Why I’d Do It Again

In this episode, I share my personal journey of quitting a secure full-time job during COVID to go all-in on my web design business. I explain why so-called "job security" is often a myth and how running your own business—with multiple clients—can actually offer more stability. I also break down the common mistakes freelancers make when transitioning, and why the subscription model is the future of sustainable web design.
