E29: My Journey From Corporate to Entrepreneur — Lessons & Surprises

E29: My Journey From Corporate to Entrepreneur — Lessons & Surprises

In this episode of Empowermente, Gina gives you a behind-the-scenes look at her entrepreneurial journey—sharing both the wins and the challenges of running a business. From creative autonomy, freedom of time, and limitless possibilities… to the tough stuff like taxes, legal worries, lack of built-in structure, and dealing with self-doubt when no one’s clapping for your work.

Gina also shares life updates, including wedding planning in Mexico, becoming a cat mom (hi Canela and Silver!), and surviving the Phoenix heat. Whether you’re dreaming of starting a business, already building one, or just curious about what it really feels like—this honest reflection is for you.

Key topics covered:

  • The pros and cons of entrepreneurship
  • Lessons learned after leaving corporate
  • Navigating self-doubt and validation hangover

  • Creating your own structure and staying focused

  • Balancing life, business, and personal growth
