In this episode, I talk with fellow creator and curious human Anne-Laure Le Cunff. She left her job at Google and embarked on an entrepreneurial journey about one month before I did in April 2017. We compare the lessons we have learned over the past five years as well as talk about:
- How her mother's experience as an immigrant influenced her work scripts
- Her creative interests vs. practical career choices
- Getting into google and getting sucked into the tech world
- Quitting her job and thinking she needed to found a company
- Shifting to freelancing and creating space in her life
- Creating and writing online and building an audience
- Creating in a second language
- Hiring employees vs. hiring contractors
- Pursuing an academic path at the same time as a solopreneur path
