Lessons Learned in my 1st Year Self-Employed!
In this episode, I am sharing the first-hand lessons I learned during my first year self-employed full-time. My first year as an entrepreneur was scary yet very insightful. Somehow I managed to work full-time as a Licensed Counselor providing therapy to clients throughout the week, market my real estate business, and plan my other business ventures. It was A LOT!
As a single mother of two in a new city with a higher cost of living, I could not afford to fail. In my upcoming book,”Wounded Healer: The Art of Overcoming” I will share greater details of my first year fully self-sufficient. Throughout college and graduate school, I utilized government resources to supplement my salary in order to provide for my children. In less than one year I went from low-income to more than doubling my income and catapulting to the Middle-Income tax bracket. (my own rags to “riches” story).
I am an advocate for entrepreneurship but highly recommend thoroughly planning for expenses. Self-employment can be scary as it is unpredictable. Check out the 10 lessons I learned during my first year FULL-time Self-Employed!
