On this episode we talk about: – The journey from corporate layoffs to successful solopreneurship – Building confidence and overcoming fear, uncertainty, and doubt (FUD) – Networking strategies for solopreneurs, including the "one person in person once a week" mantra – Pricing strategies: how to charge what you're worth and transition from hourly rates to fixed fees – Financial tips for solopreneurs, including the importance of saving and leveraging home equity Top 3 Takeaways 1. Overcoming fear, uncertainty, and doubt is critical to succeeding as a solopreneur. Use techniques like "name it and tame it" to identify obstacles and develop solutions. 2. Know your worth and price accordingly. Fixed-fee pricing often yields better results than hourly rates, especially as you gain expertise. 3. Consistently nurture your network through meaningful connections—whether in person or virtually—and maintain trust through agendaless conversations.
