Just looking to connect and learn

Hey, I’m Jon. I’ve worked in a corporate environment for nearly 20 years now - I’m one of those millennials you hear about that is completely burnt out and sick of the 9-5 toxic corporate culture!

Let me start by saying I’m not selling anything, I’m not looking for work, and I’m certainly not here trying to flog any of you guys any AI slop or vibe coded solutions!

I am not a small business owner, but I feel as though it’s something I’d love to pursue.

My problem is a lack of understanding of what really goes into running a small business, warts and all.

I’d love to connect with like minded people across the whole spectrum of small business owners - from the ones just starting out, to the ones that have been going five years but tearing their hair out, to those going twenty years and have it all figured out!

I just want to hear your story, what was your motivation to start something for yourself? What’s the biggest challenge you face every week? What are you most proud of?

I’d honestly appreciate any comments you have, or a DM to start a conversation, anything really to allow me the opportunity to learn from you.

If you made it this far - thanks for reading! Hope to hear from some of you 🙂
