I Burned the Ships | Here's What It Cost Me
About this episode
Would love to hear your thoughts!
"How's the pod?"
That question came up at a recent farewell party for a former colleague - and it cracked something open. So it's time to pull back the curtain on the part I've avoided talking about the most: MONEY.
How much I paid in startup fees. Whose money it was. The trigger that catches me off guard. And a response to a comment that got wedged under my skin about how I'm able to do what I'm doing financially.
It's uncomfortable. It's honest. And by the end, it's EMPOWERING.
I'm also revisiting two earlier conversations that still speak to me today: Lynn Mull, who left Wall Street to reinvent as a Holistic Career Coach and talks about financing your dream, and Sean Turi of Turi Productions - my headshot photographer, who captured the look of this podcast's cover - who taught me what it means to burn the ships and never look back.
If you've ever wondered what it actually costs - financially, emotionally - to walk away and build something of your own, this one's for you.
