Personal Reflection On Being "Independent" For 6 Months

About this episode

David Nebinski reflects on his journey of being self-employed for six months and shares insights on his evolving portfolio career.

Are you looking to be more self-employed or self-funded? Listen to this episode where I talk about how my portfolio career has evolved over the last six months of working on my own. I am currently kind of paralell pathing two similar work streams. You will learn about the two, three month chapters and how things feel more durable and compounding now compared to a few months ago. Hosting events, connecting with friends, and loose ties have all been helpful too. Thank you for being part of this journey! Excited for you to build and grow your Portfolio Career!
