Description

Unfortunately, many employers have held onto outdated beliefs about employment and entrepreneurship. In this episode, I share why I agree with Nassim Taleb’s belief that getting a monthly salary (i.e. full-time employment) as opposed to working as a consultant often does more harm than good!
