028: How I Matched My Attorney Salary...in Less Than Four Months!

The Self-Starter Podcast

I matched my attorney salary in less than four months. Yep, you read that right. In less than four months since quitting my full-time job (as an attorney), I've now matched that same attorney salary as a wedding photographer. How, you ask?

We're chatting about the topic no one likes to talk about… MONEY! 💰 We all tiptoe around it, and most of us have a lot of formative beliefs about money that affect how we interact with it.

I experienced financial anxiety when I went full-time in June. Would I make enough money to support my family? Would I have to start working Doordash? Even though I wasn't financially where I wanted to be, I knew I needed a change, and that still meant quitting.

So I set some aggressive goals for myself. I pulled out pen and paper and wrote it down!

"I will make as much money working for myself as I did being a full-time attorney by the end of the year."  - Me in June

And then I got 👏🏻 to 👏🏻 work 👏🏻. In less than four months time, I'd doubled the income I had on the books for 2022 when I quit back in June. In fact, I matched my attorney salary! This milestone deserved its own ✨moment✨.

But not only that, I want to prove to you that YOU can also achieve the financial (and other) goals of your dreams. I'm walking you through how in today's podcast episode.
