Hi hi! Episode nine is out guys! This is the first episode where I actually am talking to someone, and that someone is my boyfriend Zander. It was so fun to have him on the podcast, and definitely fun to not be just talking to myself. In this episode Zander and I talk about becoming your own boss, and how to go about monetizing your passions.
We've all had or have jobs that we don't totally love, but it can seem impossible to do something else. Becoming your own boss can feel a little scary, you're giving up financial and schedule security, while also putting yourself out there in a way that can make you feel vulnerable. When creating something, whether it's a business or a creative project, it's just you. You expressing yourself and showing the world who you are, which can be totally scary! So, Zander and I talk about how to start the process in a manageable way, from a financial, scheduling, and emotional points of view.
The episode covers how you don't need to quit your day job to work on your passions, or start your own business. Goals, and good financial planning, are truly what create a strong foundation for taking a leap into the unknown. We also talk about the importance of long and short term goals, and how those fit into coming up with the inspiration and execution of becoming your own boss. Zander and I then talk about success, what to do when you fail (which you will), and how to overcome naysayers. So if you've been wanting to start your own business, be your own boss, and try to monetize your passions, go give episode nine a listen! I would super appreciate if you guys would head on over to iTunes and give us a rating and review. It will help me make the podcast better, and do episodes on info you guys want to hear. So give me some feedback, ask a question, let us know what's on your mind! You can also go to our website casualadulting.wordpress.com and drop us a line too. Thanks in advance!
