Okay. I had 10k saved then life happened. I got preg, went through an abusive relationship, had to get my own apartment and start from zero.

I really want to get my savings back at 10k. My biggest weakness is DoorDash omg it’s convenient and I love it but I spend way too much on there.

I’m also a business owner so I can’t really set aside a certain amount consistently. My income fluctuates.

Right now I’m at 6k. I plan on hitting my goal around February.
Any tips? I know I can do this. I would love to hear any tips.

Ok so… I’m about to graduate with my Doctorate in Business Admin & Entrepreneurship. I run 3 businesses that are doing well. I mainly went back to college to learn how to be a better entrepreneur/businesswoman.

Yet, people keep telling me to “start looking for jobs”.. I don’t really want to work for another company and when I mention this, people side eye me... I just went for educational purposes and honestly, I’ve learned a lot.

But deep down, I feel guilty for not working a traditional 9 to 5 and the fact that people keep suggesting it, makes me feel even worse.

Why do I feel this way? Has anyone dealt with this? I’m starting to feel guilty about graduating and not having a corporate job. 🥹 I’ve been running my businesses for almost 7 years now. I haven’t worked a 9 to 5 in so long.
