Is It Time to Make the Leap? A Workshop for the Self-Employment Curious

Is It Time to Make the Leap? A Workshop for the Self-Employment Curious

Thinking about leaving your job to work for yourself—but not sure if it’s the right time, the right move, or if you’re even ready? You’re not alone.

In this 90-minute virtual workshop, we’ll talk honestly about the questions, fears, and possibilities that come up when you start imagining a life beyond the 9–5. This isn’t a sales pitch or a business-building seminar—it’s a space to reflect, connect, and get a little clearer on what’s next for you.
Whether you’ve been dreaming about it for years or just started feeling the itch, you’ll walk away with:
  • A better understanding of what’s drawing you toward self-employment (and what’s holding you back)
  • A simple framework to help you assess where you are in the process
  • Normalization of common fears and mindset traps
  • Clarity on a small, no-pressure next step you can take

Tuesday, July 22, 2025, 6pm-7:30pm, Zoom
