Could Entrepreneurship Be In Your Future?
The Great American Walk Out
There is something that the pandemic brought front and center. It made us re-evaluate how we spend our time and if we have a good work life balance.
For many of us, having the opportunity to spend more time with friends and family showcased what we have been missing out on.
It became evident that there was a big shift or movement for a better work-life balance. More and more people began leaving their jobs to start their own businesses and that number is even higher for women.
