🧑‍🏭: I quit my job too soon


Let me be honest with you, Reader,

I have one major regret about my creator journey.

Something I didn't do despite everyone telling me it's going to bite me in the ass later on.

Spoiler alert: It did.

I'm talking about building an emergency fund. At least 3 months of your salary saved up on your account.

I heard I should do it from practically everyone. But my ego won here, telling me:

"Pff, it's not going to happen to me!"

Of course, I was 100% wrong. In 2023, things went south for 3 months.

No clients. No leads flowing in. A big student load screaming at me each time I opened my bank account.

I managed to turn things around later, but gosh – it was stupid AF.

Your creative business is too precious for such stupid risks.

So, today, I prepared for you a list of 7 lessons I learned after building a well-performing creative business in 11 months.
