Is Working for Yourself for You?
From Confusion to Clarity
A Workshop to explore what’s possible
You’ve felt the pull. That sense that the work you're doing isn’t fully aligned with who you are or who you’re becoming. Maybe you’ve wondered what it would look like to work for yourself, but you’re unsure where to start, whether it’s viable, or even if it’s you.
This workshop is for anyone at that crossroads: curious about self-employment, craving more meaning and autonomy, and committed to using their work to drive positive impact especially in the climate or social space.
In this 2.5-hour interactive session, you’ll:
Hear honest stories of transition from two people who left traditional paths to build meaningful solo careers.
Understand the real differences between freelancing, solopreneurship, and entrepreneurship, and which one might fit you.
Explore what alignment really means, and how to find work that fits you.
Learn how to test the waters without quitting your job or risking it all.
Walk away with a practical experiment you can try right away.
This isn’t a “follow your passion” pep talk. It’s a grounded, hands-on session designed to meet you where you are: with tools, frameworks, and a space to think for yourself.
You’ll leave with more clarity, less confusion, and a sense of what’s next.
