About this listen
Here for the IG reel-novella “I started a biz and now I work 4 hours a week from a sun-drenched balcony” story?
Well, this is the other story. The one where a hypothetical mum of two (okay, fine, it’s me) left her corporate hellmouth thinking it would be easier, discovered it was… not, and spent three years trying to make maths, meaning, and motherhood all play nicely together.
This episode does not contain 7-figure screenshots, or 5 steps you can follow to create your own Kardashian empire. This is the episode where I share the real story - real numbers, real hours, real mess - of my first three years as a solo business owner.
In this episode:
Exactly how much I earned each of the last 3 years
How many hours I actually worked
Where the money went: coaches, courses, software, childcare, tax, and the line item I call “coffee, obvs.”
The sneaky costs no one mentions (context switching, illness, downtime, switching business models… twice)
How my nervous system coped (sleep, anxiety, focus… and why “be more disciplined” wasn’t the answer)
What productivity did to me vs. for me, and the moment I realised I didn’t need more willpower
