When you think about "Entrepreneurship" many people think it means flexibility, more freedom, more joy, more recognition, more meaning and hopefully in the long run, more money. Right?   The reality is being an entrepreneur is much harder than most people are willing to open up about. In a culture where successful entrepreneurs are idealized like rock stars, it's easy to feel like we're not good enough when comparing ourselves to the picture that’s painted by social media.   In this episode our Co-Founder, Raph Leroux exposes the truth behind the life of the everyday entrepreneur and why it’s important that we talk openly and truthfully about the pressures and struggles associated with starting a business and what it actually feels like.  If you wanting to be an entrepreneur or looking to grow your already existing business, this episode will be for you.
