🌟 Calling all aspiring lifestyle entrepreneurs! 🌟 Does the term "lifestyle entrepreneur" resonate with you? 🌍💼 In a nutshell, a lifestyle entrepreneur is someone who builds and designs a business that aligns with their desired way of life, allowing them to prioritize personal freedom, work-life balance, and pursue their passions while still achieving success. It's about creating a business that supports and enhances the lifestyle you envision for yourself! 🚀💡 #lifestyleentrepreneur #businesswithpurpose #livelifetothefullest
Iynna·Jun 09, 2023Iynna·Jun 09, 2023Lifestyle entrepreneurship is great imo! The other options are a small biz owner (eg own a spa a restaurant) or you run a vc-backable type of company which is tons of pressure and you end up not owning your business at the end (though there are great upsides at the end if things workout).So so long as you find what works for you any option is amazing!
juliezarubafountaine·Jun 10, 2023juliezarubafountaine·Jun 10, 2023Thanks for sharing @iynna! I completely agree with you! Lifestyle entrepreneurship offers a wonderful opportunity to shape your own business while maintaining control and flexibility, without the added pressure of running a venture capital-backed company. It's all about finding the option that suits your goals and preferences, and any path can lead to amazing outcomes.
Iynna·Jun 10, 2023Iynna·Jun 10, 2023Absolutely! But I am very supportive of lifestyle entrepreneurship, we have a number of those here on Elpha and I'm sure they have great things to share e.g @DianePrince who runs her own coaching business and sees plenty businesses!
Yes! I've been an entrepreneur for over 20 years and I believe in always building a business around your life, not the other way around. I also coach startup founders and small business owners (as well as lifestyle entrepreneurs) and I believe that any choice that entrepreneurs make - even if raising VC and not categorized as "lifestyle" - must align with how they want to live their lives. Great post @juliezarubafountaine!
Thank you @DianePrince for sharing! I have found it hard to withstand the pressure of hustle culture. It is very refreshing to hear your comments and the success you have had in your entrepreneurship journey. Congrats to you!
