When most people picture an entrepreneur, they imagine freedom, luxury, and success that looks effortless. The reality is very different. In this episode, I break down four of the biggest myths about entrepreneurship and share real stories from founders like Mark Zuckerberg, Elon Musk, the creators of Mailchimp, and Howard Schultz.
We will talk about whether you need a “genius idea” to start, what freedom in entrepreneurship actually looks like, the truth about raising money, and why entrepreneurs are made, not born.
By the end, you will see that entrepreneurship is messy, imperfect, and challenging, but also deeply rewarding. My goal is for you to feel less pressure to live up to the social media highlight reel and more motivation to start solving problems, pursue your ideas, and grow through the process.
