Show Notes

In this episode, I talk with fellow creator and curious human Anne-Laure Le Cunff. She left her job at Google and embarked on an entrepreneurial journey about one month before I did in April 2017.  We compare the lessons we have learned over the past five years as well as talk about:

  • How her mother's experience as an immigrant influenced her work scripts
  • Her creative interests vs. practical career choices
  • Getting into google and getting sucked into the tech world
  • Quitting her job and thinking she needed to found a company
  • Shifting to freelancing and creating space in her life
  • Creating and writing online and building an audience
  • Creating in a second language
  • Hiring employees vs. hiring contractors
  • Pursuing an academic path at the same time as a solopreneur path
