Where do I begin? The finances terrify me!  What if this doesn't work out? How will I know I am really ready? I have NO IDEA how to take care of all the legal stuff!

In today's episode, we will navigate the transformative path from being a teacher to an entrepreneur. Tag along with me as we delve deep into crafting a rewarding and booming homeschooling program or microschool business.

Get ready for an honest deep-dive into the emotional and mental struggle that comes with transitioning from an educator to an entrepreneur, and learn how to turn this into an opportunity for freedom, creativity, and personal growth.

Overcome the fear of the 'mundane tasks' that intimidate most budding entrepreneurs through a creative approach that makes these tasks less daunting. Explore the struggles, learn about starting a microschool and discover the importance of muscle memory in honing entrepreneurial skills. 

Navigate the alternative education services and understand their impact on your teaching business. Get acquainted with concepts like the 'Educational Savings Account (ESA)' and understand how it can shape the success of your microschool. Teaching is viewed as a noble profession, while entrepreneurship requires gallantry - learn how to meld these two together to create a significant revolution in the educational landscape.

Engage in interactive conversations about financial planning, marketing strategies, setting achievable timelines, and understanding the emotional aspects of these decisions. 

 Journey through my personal story of transitioning from a classroom teacher to running a microschool from my living room, bearing witness to my ups and downs, fears, and triumphs. Prepare to be inspired and motivated to start your own educational endeavor.
