✨ Episode Summary

If you’ve ever felt deeply alone on your business journey or caught yourself whispering. “I’m just a freelancer” like it’s some kind of apology… this one’s for you.

In today’s replay of our #2 most downloaded episodes ever, I sat down with the hilarious and whip-smart Rachel Meltzer to talk about her transition from freelancer to business owner to community builder.

We went deep on:

  • How to stop thinking like an employee and start owning your power as a business owner
  • Rewiring your brain around follow-ups and outreach (hint: you’re not annoying)
  • Letting go of the “I’m not confident enough” myth and just borrowing it like an Abercrombie polo
  • Why community isn’t optional, especially if you want to actually enjoy running your business
  • And yes, the real grief that comes with finishing big things (even when they’re awesome)
