Leaving the structure of corporate life for the uncertainty of entrepreneurship takes guts—and Roxy Ayaz knows this journey firsthand. In this episode of The Corporate Hangover, I sit down with Roxy, a front-end developer turned business owner, who founded Paper in the City Shop, a South Asian greeting card company with bold, expressive designs.



We dive into the challenges of balancing a creative passion with a corporate career, battling imposter syndrome, and taking the leap to build something of your own. Roxy shares hard-earned lessons about rejection, scaling a business, and the reality of being an entrepreneur. We also talk about mindset shifts, manifesting success, and the small wins that make it all worth it.



If you’ve ever felt stuck between chasing your dreams and the comfort of a paycheck, this conversation is for you!
