I thought the hardest part would be building the business.

It wasn't.

The hardest part was letting go of the identity I had built for over a decade.

In this episode, I'm sharing what my first year as a full-time entrepreneur has really looked like—the uncertainty, the mistakes, the growth, the systems I wish I'd implemented sooner, and the surprising amount of personal development that comes with betting on yourself.

We talk about:

✨ The identity shift from employee to entrepreneur
✨ Why I struggled to call myself a personal stylist
✨ The burnout I didn't realize I was carrying
✨ Learning to operate like a CEO instead of a side hustler
✨ The loneliness, joy, and self-trust that entrepreneurship builds

If you've ever dreamed about starting something of your own—or you're in the messy middle of building it—this episode is for you.

Listen now and let me know what resonates most.
