Career Wednesday:Things to Consider Before Trading Your 9-5 for Entrepreneurship | Dallas

About this event

The past year has caused many parents to leave the workforce due to challenging childcare situations and new family work-life-balance dynamics. The problem is, many of these families rely on two-parent incomes. And then there are the parents who are still attempting for work-from-home 9-5 while homeschooling their kids at the exact same time. This arrangement just isn't working for them either, and working for themselves on a different schedule seems like the only next choice.

Whatever the reason may be, if you are a parent who's left the traditional workforce or is ready to leave your traditional 9-5 job and start your own business, there are several important aspects to consider before making the leap. Our speaker Katie Malone is a social media strategist and business coach for new entrepreneurs and she's going to share with us the 3 things you'll want to have in place before putting in that letter of resignation and starting your new biz.

Katie left her agency job in 2017 when her son was just 6 months old with no clients and quickly grew her business to create not only the income she desired, but she was able to create the freedom and flexibility that she craved - and now she successfully coaches other mompreneurs to do the same.
