Ever trusted someone’s word instead of getting it in writing? Same. This week, I’m pulling back the curtain on what happens when you work, hustle, and pour your heart into a project — with zero strings attached — and then realize you should’ve tied some knots (and maybe added a padlock).
In this solo episode, I talk about feeling completely lost lately, getting burned in business because I didn’t protect myself, and how I’m learning (sometimes painfully) to set boundaries, demand clarity, and stop doing free labor for people who should know better.
This isn’t just about me — it’s about how we all, especially those of us building dreams from scratch, can stop letting people blur our lines and undervalue our time.
If you’ve ever felt lost, underpaid, or afraid to speak up: this one’s for you.
✨ Listen. Laugh. Learn. Then go tie your strings, babe.
