A hard decision (most entrepreneurs never want to make)

Are you feeling uncertain about whether to keep working for yourself or consider becoming an employee again? You’re not alone. After 25 years of running my own business (with a short teaching stint during the 2008 recession), I faced the same crossroads. The idea of switching gears brought a lot of questions. Would I lose my freedom? What if the structure wasn’t a good fit? The thought of leaving behind the autonomy I’d built for years felt daunting. But taking that leap proved eye-opening.

Date: September 25, 2025
Join us for a round table talk about what it’s like to go back to being an employee in today’s world. See you there,
