And that could be in your six month plan or your year plan before you leave.

Getting clear on your finances is really important.

Another thing that you'll want to do is start to ask yourself, should I have a side hustle?

I love a good side hustle.

So for me, what I did is I started to take clients on the side doing their social media.

Was this the end all be all for me?

Did I want that to be my entire business?

No, but I needed to do something that I could do right away that I could figure out quickly.

So in the mornings, nights, weekends, I would work with clients on their social media as my side hustle to bring in a little extra money, but more so just to prove that I could put myself out there and do this.

So I'm a big fan of a side hustle, whether it's you create a course, a membership, consulting, service-based business, whatever it might be, but just something on the side to give you that courage to get going.

So the first thing is before you give notice, you're likely gonna wanna tell a few people of your plans to get support.

Be very careful who you tell.

So I only told three people.

I told my future husband, he wasn't even my husband yet.

I told my mom who thinks I could land on an unidentified planet.

She like believes in me more than anything and my best friend.

Three people knew throughout that six months because I knew I was really vulnerable at the time.

If I told somebody I was going to do this and they told me all the reasons it wouldn't work, which people will, I would have believed them.

Recently, I heard the story from Sarah Blakely who started Spanx.

And she said, when I cut the feet out of my pantyhose and created the first prototype of my product, I didn't tell anyone because if they told me it wouldn't have worked, I would have believed them.
