Solopreneurship can be lonely

Building my one-person business to $10M in revenue and sharing everything I learn along the way.
You might already know my story.
In 2019, after many years in high-growth startups, I decided it was time for a change and left my executive job. I was excited to set out on a path toward solopreneurship.
I had been building an audience online to support this transition, so I started consulting and immediately landed some clients. Because of my online audience, things got off to a great start, and I never looked back.
But that's not always the story of solopreneurship.

3 年This is a great article Justin. Even though I'm not as far along in this journey as others, I completely get what you're talking about in your article about the need for a supportive community. It's not just me either - some of the close connections I've built here I know are feeling the same. Right now, the vast majority of people simply aren't trying to create for themselves. It's easy to ignore the negative people who don't get it, but the absence of community makes it hard to embrace any positivity too. The net result is a bit of a feeling of isolation - so I'm definitely looking forward to the launch of your community.

3 年Better to be lonely together! And great points in the article. Our company may have been convinced to sign up for Culture Ops had I known about it at the time.
