In this solo 4th of July episode, Megan is flipping the script on what freedom really looks like for women building businesses on their own terms. Spoiler: it’s not just about quitting your job or hitting a revenue goal.
Drawing inspiration from her recent interview with short-term rental expert Madeleine Raiford-Holland, Megan dives into the three types of freedom every Self StartHER should be building for—time, financial, and creative. She shares personal stories, actionable tips, and the mindset shifts that helped her go from laid off and pregnant to building a business and podcast that lights her up.
Whether you’re in the early stages of starting something or simply craving more flexibility, this episode will help you get clear on the kind of freedom you’re really after—and how to take your next best step toward it.
What You’ll Learn:
Why freedom isn’t just about money (and what it really looks like)
How to create more time freedom, even if your schedule is tight
A simple first step to start building financial freedom now
The creative freedom that comes when you stop waiting for permission
Why starting small still counts—and might be exactly what you need
