In this raw and reflective episode of the Quitting My Job & Building series, I take you inside what life has looked like just 2 weeks after leaving my 9–5.


I share the unexpected blessing of having my last working day fall during Ramadan, and how — on the very same day — I got approval for my company papers.


But it hasn’t all been smooth. From technical hiccups like domain issues while setting up my business to the emotional weight of canceled plans — including my trip home to Kenya for Eid — I talk about what it really takes to step into entrepreneurship.


This episode is a reminder that:

→ Every job, even the one you want to leave, teaches you something.

→ Sacrifice is part of building something new.

→ The right coach can save you months of trial and error (my podcast coach did just that!).


💡 What You'll Learn:

  • Why timing matters more than we realize
  • How to handle setbacks with patience and faith
  • The power of trusting that where you are is preparing you for what’s next
  • How investing in the right mentors can accelerate your growth


📍Tune in if you're:

  • Building your dream in the background
  • Feeling overwhelmed by setbacks
  • Wondering if it’s “too late” to go all in


🎧 Listen now and remind yourself — every detour is part of the path.
