remote work

Two years of business… already!?

Two years of business… already!?

Thanks to LinkedIn’s handy “anniversary” reminders, I remembered (/learned) that this month signifies something that’s actually kind of shocking.

It was two years ago that my little “side biz” went full-time. It was two years ago that I quit my 9–5, said goodbye to routine and benefits, and jumped into the entrepreneurial pool full-time.

"The dream" is not quite as curated and pretty as my Instagram feed makes it out to be. There are cold, hard costs to living the remote working, entrepreneurial life. Packing a years' worth of tax work into a month is a surefire way to learn this. Thank you, 2015 taxes, for teaching me so much about myself.

In the spirit of transparency, and to inject some realism into my dreamy, "beach office for today" posts, I thought I'd share some of those stats.
