Hey Friend, Welcome to the “Start That Business” podcast, where I help Christian moms working a corporate job launch their first coaching or consulting business from scratch without quitting their jobs yet. If you’ve ever wondered what it really takes to go from the security of a 9-to-5 paycheck to building your own business, this episode is your roadmap. In the first part of our 5-part series on transitioning successfully from employee to entrepreneur, I’m joined by Samuel Mpamugo to unpack the mindset shifts and strategic steps you need before making the leap. We’ll explore: The key differences between the employee mindset and the entrepreneur mindset, and why ignoring this gap can sabotage your success. How to plan your transition so you avoid the “crickets and panic” phase so many new entrepreneurs face. Why coaching can be the bridge that helps you replace limiting beliefs with the tools, skills, and confidence to thrive. Whether you’re still in corporate life, preparing to launch your side business, or counting down the years to retirement and wondering what’s next, this conversation will challenge the way you think about entrepreneurship and equip you to start strong. Listen in, reflect on your current mindset, and take your first step toward creating the future you want. I pray this blesses you. .
