Circling back to my last post about taking a step back one of my biggest takeaways was this; being an entrepreneur made me a more valuable employee.
In most jobs, qualifications and experience are the golden tickets. But sometimes, even when you have both, the door still feels hard to open. What I’ve learned from building my business, working inside my clients’ businesses, and adding new qualifications (even in small ways) gave me real, hands-on added experience that set me apart.
It has even changed how I show up in an interview. A direct result of me having to learn to show up in meetings with clients or potential clients. Imagine applying for a job that asks for a completed BSc in Business Administration, mine’s still in progress, but being able to confidently explain and sell the experience I’ve gained as an entrepreneur? That’s powerful isn't it.
Betting on yourself builds confidence, credibility, and opens doors you might never have considered or tried. Sometimes, creating your own table is exactly what leads you to new ones. ✨
