Leaving any long-term career and entering entrepreneurship is, well, pretty damn scary – but there’s one thing that can feel scarier, the thought of never trying.
My guest today is Leigh Kuhlmann, the man behind the chilli oil of DC Cartel – and he was in the same industry as me, so you know I feel his pain, but the lessons he’s about to share make sense for any major change and to the building of any kind of business.
In this episode you'll hear about:

Recognising when you’ve lost the love for what you’re doing
Rebuilding your sense of self after leaving what you did
Building a brand with personality
Taking a bet on a business idea with a “why not” approach
The head noise of self-doubt
And pushing forward after getting off to a false start

If you need a little inspo to keep going on the path you’re building for yourself, you’re in the right spot.
