Before you quit your job and start a business, you need a plan. We’re sharing how to leave your job and start a business without blowing up your life.
We talk through the real transition from employee to entrepreneur, including what we got right, what we got wrong, and the steps we’d take today - if we were leaving a stable job to build a business from scratch.
This is for anyone stuck in a corporate career, working a high-paying job that no longer feels aligned, or wondering whether their current career path is actually taking them where they want to go.
We cover how to make the leap safely, how to build momentum before you quit, how to use your current skills and network to create a business idea, and how to set your “leap number” before going all in.
