942: The Price of Entrepreneurship No One Talks About (And Why I'd Pay It Again)

About this episode
Jenna Kutcher discusses the hidden costs of entrepreneurship and the personal transformation it requires.
Becoming an entrepreneur is the most expensive personal development program you will ever pay for, and I'm not even talking about the money. I'm talking about the version of yourself that you have to let die: the people pleaser who waits for permission, the woman who apologizes before she speaks, that part of you who thinks staying ahead of everything will finally make you safe. I've watched the “girl boss” era rise and fall. I've witnessed hustle culture get worshipped and then finally questioned. I've been in rooms I thought I needed to be in only to realize those weren't my rooms at all. Here's what I know: entrepreneurship is not just about building a business. It's about becoming someone who can. For women especially, this journey will ask you to unlearn almost everything you've been taught: to stop making yourself small, to stop waiting for permission, to stop apologizing for wanting more.
