August 8th: How to Be a Proactive Solopreneur

If You Don't Know Where You're Going,  How Will You Get There?

There's an irony to being a solopreneur. It's based on the fact that smart solopreneurs go solo to build a life AND a business. Unlike most entrepreneurs, it isn't all about scaling. It's about building a business that is financially successful AND serves one's life.

 

It's kind of like trying to build Ikea furniture without the instructions! It's not easy!

 

And it can't be done without constant planning and review, especially in the early years. In this week's podcast feature, we spoke to  Nancy Gentle Boudrie about making a life by design.

 

It's like she's got the missing Ikea instructions. Which means, I don't know anyone who won't benefit from a listen.

 

We also got a little crazy and did an interview with ChatGPT on solopreneurship. We had a lot of fun. Her answers were pretty good, and some of the glitches cracked us up

 

So check them out... and enjoy!

 

Solo together,

        Alright, you guys. So we actually don't know how this episode is going to go. This could be our best-performing episode to date that people just can't get enough of or it could totally flop!

        We decided to take a different approach, and instead of interviewing a guest today, or at least a human guest, we thought it would be fun to interview ChatGPT and have it answer questions about...
