Description

If you have a desire to leave your job and be your own boss, you are at the right place and time in history. Never before have there been so many opportunities to go out on your own, especially as an accounting professional and working mom.

Just the thought of not having to deal with a difficult boss, having your own clients to service and being able to make your financial goals a reality can be exciting. But, there's also a harsh reality that you might want to consider - most of your formal education has prepared you to be an employee, not to be self-employed.

One of the most important factors when making the transition from employee to self-employed is brain management. Brain management is the key when you:

• Are afraid to make a big leap
• Need to quit your current job
• Are afraid of what other people will think
• Don't know how to manage your time
• Are overwhelmed with all the decisions that need to be made
• Miss having coworkers to bounce off issues with
• Don't believe you can do it
• Need to get work done and your child is home sick
• Are suffering with imposter syndrome
• Have an unhappy client
• Aren't making enough money
• Are afraid to ask for more money
• Want to give up

This week on the podcast I discuss what brain management is, why it's so important if you want to be self-employed, and the best way to make the transition from employee to self-employed.
