Become Your Own Boss

The Mango Effect Podcast

07. With The Great Resignation all the rage right now, should you consider becoming your own boss or making a career pivot? Making an informed decision is key to creating a workstyle by your own design.
In today's episode, let's discuss the pros and cons of becoming your own boss, how to ask yourself the right questions to guide your process, how you can thoughtfully prepare for a career or business transition, and exactly what it takes to make it through your first 90 days (and beyond!)
Approaching entrepreneurship or business leadership from the perspective of mindfulness and intention, rather than just jumping headfirst into the unknown, will serve us better in the long run. It's both an art and a science.
In this episode, we discuss:

• The questions you should ask yourself before you make a change
• Pros and cons of starting your own business
• What to do with your finances to make it through the danger zone of the early days
• Running smart experiments to generate revenue
• Enlisting the support of your friends, family and communities
• Whether or not you should keep your 9-5... and what to do then!
