Beyond The Dollar - Deep and Honest Conversations On How Money Affects Your Well-Being Sarah Li-Cain

In this season finale, we’re going to dig deeper into the idea of what it means to go back to a job after taking a stab at entrepreneurship. How can someone accept the fact that they’ve “failed”, how does one deal with a bruised ego, and well, is it really the end of the world?

You see, these questions about your vocation, it’s more than about how you make money. It’s actually a larger question about your worth. About how ‘badass’ you are. You bucked the conventional trajectory, congrats! How cool are you that you get to dictate your own schedule, work from the beach and be your own boss!

And well, if you go back to a job, is it a message to the world that you suck? That you can’t make it or  there’s something wrong with you. What will people say?
