I had a delightful conversation with Daniel Vassallo a self-employed creator for the last three years who seems to have gone through many of the same "a-has" as I have. He walked away from Amazon despite making an absurd salary of $500,000 a year. We talk about why he made that leap, why he would never go back and some of the unexpected lessons and insights he's learned from becoming self-employed.
