The KEY to Successfully Transitioning from employee to Entrepreneur, with Kayann Saunders.
Text Me, I'd LOVE to hear from YOU!
"Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time. We are the ones we've been waiting for, we are the change that we seek" - Barack Obama.
It's the first Bustle to Boss Success Story for 2023, and I just LOVE my guest's approach to life and how much faith she has in herself. Because of that, she left her corporate job because she had to follow through on what her REAL purpose was.
In this episode of The Shine to FIVE™ Method for Side Hustlers, you'll hear from Kayann Saunders, Mortgage Agent and Personal Assistant and I guarantee that she'll leave you inspired to GET MOVING so you can leave your 9to5 in 2023!
Here's what is covered:
- the questions she asked when she started to "plan her escape" from her unfulfilling corporate job.
- how the type of employee she was then made her into the type of Employer she is now.
- the SURPRISING corporate support she received that solidified her decision to leave.... Even to this day!
