Today's guest, Diana Bernal, joins us to discuss financial freedom when you need a way out, whether that means leaving a toxic workplace, an unhealthy relationship, or a life situation that no longer feels sustainable.
Diana explains why staying with one employer can sometimes be riskier than becoming self-employed, what mindset shifts are needed before making a major career move, and how to start building confidence around a side hustle or self-employment path.
She also shares practical guidance on choosing a side hustle, talking with your spouse or family about the transition, building a financial cushion, closing sales beyond friends and family, and preparing for the unexpected realities of becoming self-employed.
