    5 Ways I Sabotaged My Own Business Without Realizing It

    I’m one of those people who believe that self-employment is safer than being traditionally employed. (I don’t think it’s “easier” though. Choose your hard.) I accidentally fell into self-employment and entrepreneurship in December 2020. I was fresh out of a PTSD diagnosis and had found habit tracking to be pivotal to my recovery. I decided to package my tracking techniques into a workshop, that workshop paid my rent for the next month, and the rest was history. In case you’re considering working for yourself, here are the 5 key lessons that are shaping how I rebuild my consulting career (B2B) and launch new group courses (B2C). You can find this pod on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and Substack. Until the next episode, come play in my world at maeganburke.com.

    #breakups

    At some point in our lives, we were sold a narrative that in order for relationships to be deemed successful, they’ve gotta last forever, but that can’t be further from the truth. Letting go of people, places, and situations that no longer serve you is the true definition of love.

    #septembersurge

    Here are some tips to help you attract job opportunities that align with your authentic self. Showing up in all spaces, even professional ones, as your true self makes it easier to find opportunities that last. Have you heard about the #septembersurge? Apparently it’s the time period between Labor Day and Halloween when there’s a distinct increase in open job opportunities. Here’s the resumae that I designed for Genius. “Sometimes we try to adapt too much, especially to corporate culture.” — Issa Rae “Why the ‘September Surge’ is overhyped for job seekers” Your journey to mindful entrepreneurship starts here. Stay mindful and stay kind!

    #sundayscaries

    In the midst of #startuplife in my 20s, I realized that I couldn't live a life that included dreading tomorrow. Before I knew how I was going to escape the #sundayscaries, I committed to the end game. I committed to a life of freedom, a life where I wake up excited for the day, and a life where I'm never just counting down to Friday. And now I have that life. You can too, if you want it. *** If you'd like help creating a life free of the #sundayscaries, consider first learning how to work with your natural energetic rhythms so you can have clarity around the lifestyle that you desire. If you're a freelancer, entrepreneur, content creator, or side hustler (or aspiring to be one), invest in The Vault. A video library of educational resources maed just for you. Enjoy $50 off your one-time investment through September 6th with the promo code LABORDAY.
