    157: Why These Business Owners are Running Back to Their 9 to 5's...

    Is it time to quit your job? In just 5 minutes, I'll show you the framework that helps women build profitable businesses while they're still collecting a paycheck. 👉 build.bossbabereset.com Thinking about quitting your 9-to-5 to go all in on your business? Before you hand in that resignation letter, you need to hear this. After falling down a YouTube rabbit hole of creators and influencers announcing their return to corporate jobs, I noticed a pattern that every aspiring entrepreneur needs to understand. The problem wasn't that they failed. The problem was that they exited too soon. In today's episode, we're talking about the difference between a desperate exit and a strategic one, why burnout happens when you build a business without infrastructure, and the three things every female entrepreneur needs before leaving her 9-to-5 behind. If you're currently building a side hustle while working full-time, this episode might save you from making a very expensive mistake. A growing number of creators and influencers are quietly returning to their 9-to-5 jobs—and their stories reveal an important lesson for every entrepreneur building a business on the side. In this episode of Boss Babe Reset, Ericka Nicole breaks down what these "back to corporate" announcements are really teaching us about entrepreneurship, burnout, business infrastructure, and sustainable growth. If you've ever felt impatient to leave your job, wondered how much revenue you really need before quitting, or questioned whether you're moving fast enough, this conversation is for you. You'll learn why visibility is not the same thing as a business model, how your paycheck may actually be your greatest business asset right now, and the three non-negotiables you need before making your exit. Because the goal isn't to escape your 9-to-5. The goal is to build a business strong enough to hold you once you're gone. IN THIS EPISODE, WE COVER: • Why so many creators are returning to traditional jobs • The hidden risks of relying on brand deals and social media income • The difference between business revenue and attention-based income • How burnout impacts creators and business owners • Why your 9-to-5 may be your greatest advantage right now • The "desperation threshold" and how to avoid crossing it • The three pillars of a successful exit strategy • Why proven revenue matters more than projected revenue • The importance of business systems and infrastructure • How much financial runway you really need before quitting • The identity trap that keeps entrepreneurs stuck • Building a business that doesn't depend on your daily presence • How to create sustainable income while working a full-time job KEY TAKEAWAYS ✔️ Your job is not the obstacle—it's funding your future. ✔️ A platform is not a business. An offer is a business. ✔️ Burnout often happens when your income depends entirely on your visibility. ✔️ A successful exit requires proven revenue, infrastructure, and runway. ✔️ Building a business with a 9-to-5 gives you more flexibility and better decision-making power. ✔️ The best exits feel like decisions, not relief. If this episode helped you rethink your exit strategy, leave a 5-star review on Apple Podcasts and Spotify and share it with another ambitious woman building her business alongside her career. Because we don't gatekeep over here. Free 5-Minute Training Every woman I know who successfully built a business while working a 9-to-5 followed the same four steps — and almost all of them tried to skip step one. So I created a free 5-minute training specifically for the woman who is still clocking into work every day while trying to build something bigger on the side. ➡️ Watch the free training here: build.bossbabereset.com 👀 Join The Reset Room Boss Babe Reset  business and productivity podcast for the high-achieving female entrepreneur building a side hustle while working a 9-to-5.

Watch my free 5-minute training at 👉 build.bossbabereset.com Think you need a fancy studio, expensive equipment, or thousands of followers before you can start a podcast? Think again. In this episode, I'm joined by podcast strategist and producer Marie Walker, founder of Your Girl Media, to break down exactly how female entrepreneurs can use podcasting as a lead-generating machine while they're still working a 9-to-5. If you've been putting podcasting in the "someday" pile because you're short on time, worried no one will listen, or overwhelmed by all the moving pieces, this conversation is for you. Marie shares the same strategies she's used to help founders build six and seven-figure businesses through podcasting, including how to create a show that converts listeners into paying clients, where a podcast fits inside your marketing funnel, and why you don't need YouTube to get started. Whether you're looking for a side hustle, building a business after work hours, or ready to establish yourself as an authority in your industry, this episode will show you how to start a podcast without burning yourself out.

    154: How to Pay Yourself From Your Business While Still Working a 9 to 5

    You know that weird moment when your first business payment hits your account… and instead of feeling successful, you’re just staring at your banking app like: “Okay… now what?” Because nobody talks about this part. Not the branding. Not the LLC TikToks. Not the “quit your job in 90 days” nonsense. I’m talking about the actual mechanics of handling money when you’re building a business while still working your 9-to-5. In this episode, we’re getting real about: how to pay yourself from your business,how to structure your money,why your side hustle needs systems ASAP,and why your paycheck might actually be your biggest business advantage right now.Because if your business is making money and you still have no structure around it? Girl… that confusion will drain you faster than a slow month ever could. IN THIS EPISODE Today we’re talking about: Why most new entrepreneurs struggle with paying themselvesThe biggest money mistake side hustlers make early onWhy you NEED a separate business bank accountThe simple “Owner’s Pay Formula” you can start using immediatelyHow to split your business income for taxes, operations, and owner’s payThe difference between reinvesting everything vs building sustainablyWhy your 9-to-5 paycheck is actually helping you start a business strategicallyHow to avoid burnout while growing your businessWhat an owner’s draw actually is (without the confusing accountant language)Why paying yourself—even just $50—changes how you see your businessKEY TAKEAWAYS ✨ A business that runs on sacrifice instead of systems will eventually collapse. ✨ Your side hustle income should not be floating around in your personal account with your direct deposit. ✨ Structure creates clarity. Clarity creates control. ✨ Paying yourself is not a reward for “making enough money.” It’s a habit that builds sustainability. ✨ Your 9-to-5 is giving you something most entrepreneurs wish they had: stability and runway. ✨ You do NOT need to replace your salary overnight to start treating your business like a real business. THE OWNER’S PAY FORMULA A simple beginner split for service-based businesses: 25–30% → Taxes10–20% → Business OperationsRemaining → Owner’s Pay / Business GrowthThe percentages may shift depending on your stage of business, but the point is this: You decide BEFORE the money comes in where it’s going. Not after.

    153: Why Nobody Is Buying from Your Business ( Even If Your Offer is Actually Good )

    If I’m being honest, messaging has humbled me more times than I’d like to admit. For the longest time, I thought if people weren’t buying, it meant I needed to change the offer, lower the price, or completely pivot my business. But the real issue? My messaging wasn’t making people feel anything. I was describing my business instead of actually selling it. And if you’re building a side hustle while working a 9 to 5, that mistake is expensive. Because when you only have a few hours a day to grow your business, your messaging has to do the heavy lifting for you. Today, I sat down with copywriter and messaging expert Lucy Bedewi from My Write Hand Woman to talk about the messaging mistakes quietly costing female entrepreneurs sales every single day. We unpack the difference between explaining your offer versus making people feel like they need it, why bland messaging is hurting your brand, and how to stand out online in a world where AI is making everyone sound exactly the same. If you’re trying to grow your business, improve your productivity, create better work-life balance, and eventually quit your 9 to 5, this episode is going to completely shift how you think about your messaging and sales copy. Because your words matter more than you think they do. In This Episode, We Talk About:  Why weak messaging is leaving money on the table  The difference between describing vs. selling your offer  Why female entrepreneurs struggle to communicate their value clearly  How to create sales copy that actually converts  The messaging strategy every side hustle owner needs  Why “confused buyers don’t buy”  How to stand out online without sounding generic  Why AI is making everyone’s messaging feel the same  The importance of having a strong point of view in business  How to attract aligned buyers and repel the wrong ones  Why your website matters more than constantly posting content  Messaging tips for women balancing a business and a full-time job Episode Timestamps: 00:00 – The messaging mistake that changed everything for me 02:00 – Lucy’s journey to building a multi-six-figure copywriting business 03:00 – Why messaging matters even more when you’re building a side hustle 05:00 – The power of clarity in sales copy 06:00 – Why weak messaging has no point of view 07:00 – How AI is making everyone’s marketing sound the same 08:00 – What a strong brand voice actually looks like 10:00 – Why buyers care more about themselves than your offer 12:00 – Messaging advice for women still working their 9 to 5 13:00 – Before-and-after examples of stronger messaging 16:00 – Demographics vs. psychographics in marketing 18:00 – Why your messaging should match how your buyers want to buy 20:00 – Where to focus first when improving your copy 21:00 – Building a brand while still employed 23:00 – Managing messaging across multiple businesses 25:00 – The biggest messaging mistake quietly costing women money Connect With Lucy Learn more about My Write Hand Woman and follow Lucy for messaging, branding, and sales copy advice for female entrepreneurs ready to grow their business and stand out online.

    152: What Burnout Is Actually Telling You About Your Business Strategy

    I used to think burnout meant I needed rest. More sleep. A vacation. Better boundaries. A weekend off. But the truth? Burnout was actually exposing the holes in my business strategy. In this episode, I’m sharing a very real conversation about what burnout actually looks like when you’re trying to balance a 9-to-5, a growing side hustle, content creation, life responsibilities, and somehow still maintain work life balance without completely losing yourself in the process. Because if you’ve ever opened your laptop and had absolutely nothing left to give… girl, I know that feeling. And I need you to know this:  Burnout does not mean you’re not cut out to be a successful female entrepreneur. In This Episode, I Talk About:  Why I believe burnout is a business diagnostic, not just exhaustion  The moment I realized my business strategy didn’t account for my actual human capacity  Why rest alone won’t solve burnout  The difference between having time and having capacity  My “Capacity Equation” and why energy matters just as much as hours  How adrenaline helped me start my business — but couldn’t sustain it  The Needle-Moving Test I use to prioritize what actually matters  The “Stop, Swap, Shift” framework we teach inside The Reset Room  Why recovery has to be built into your business systems before burnout hits  Key Takeaways: ✨ Burnout is usually a systems problem, not a personal failure  ✨ Time without energy still equals zero capacity  ✨ Not everything in your business deserves the same level of urgency  ✨ Sustainable growth requires intentional recovery  ✨ Simplifying your business is strategic, not lazy Free 5-Minute Training Every woman I know who successfully built a business while working a 9-to-5 followed the same four steps — and almost all of them tried to skip step one.
