The Calm Exit: Transitioning from Corporate to Confident Solopreneur with Paul Rise
Description
In this episode of Founders Future, with host Milan Kohut, we sit down with Paul Rise, a solopreneur coach who specializes in guiding mid-career professionals out of the corporate world. Paul shares his own journey of feeling unfulfilled and "stuck" in the corporate structure, leading to a failed first attempt at entrepreneurship before he finally found his path. He opens up about the unique challenges faced by professionals at this stage in life—burnt out and burdened with responsibilities—and why their transition requires a calm, confident, and planned approach rather than a dramatic, impulsive leap.
Paul delves into the core of his coaching offer, a structured 6-week program designed to be executed while clients are still employed, building a safe "runway" and exit plan. He explains his two-pillar marketing system of high-quality content and strategic outreach on LinkedIn, which he both uses and teaches. The conversation explores the scalable nature of a modern one-person business through digital products and AI-assisted coaching, offering a compelling vision for a sustainable and impactful solopreneurial career without the need for a large team.
