The Remote CEO Podcast - Building System Create More Freedom

SHARE THIS POST:

What really happens when your business fails? And how do you start again at the age of 40?

In this episode of The Remote CEO Life Podcast, I’m chatting to social media agency owner and podcast host Jen Kinal.

After running a successful event planning business for over a decade, Jen lost everything during the pandemic and was forced to start over – at 40.

She shares the raw truth behind burnout, rebuilding her confidence, and starting a brand new business that finally gave her the freedom she wanted.

You’ll hear:

– What it really feels like when your business fails
– How Jen went from events to launching her own social media agency
– The steps she took to recover from burnout and rebuild her confidence
– Why undercharging can keep you stuck (and how to fix it)
– The systems and mindset shifts she put in place to avoid burnout for good
– How to create recurring revenue in a service-based business
– What freedom looks like when you design your business your way

If you’re starting over, feeling stuck in your current business, or ready to build a more sustainable path to freedom – this one’s for you.

Listen now to hear how Jen made her pivot work.

I'm Sophie

Online business coach, podcast host, mental health advocate, speaker, founder of TINAH, community builder, full-time digital nomad, and general trailblazing, rule breaker…

I tried to live a “normal” life: I spent 11+ years working my way up in the fashion industry, working for brands like Ralph Lauren and Burberry. I had the apartment in the city, I lived for going out at the weekends, spent money on designer bags and holidays – until I realized this lifestyle DID NOT FULFIL MEI was waking up with anxiety every day – surviving, but definitely not thriving.

So I quit. I left my 9-to-5 behind to start an online business that supported the lifestyle I actually wanted. Now that looks like slow mornings, daily beach walks, co-working with like-minded entrepreneurs, yoga, meditation, and lots of social connections.

Since 2020, I’ve built multiple online business offers – from online business coaching and consulting to online courses, digital products, and a mental health marketplace – all while travelling the world and living life, and earning money on my own terms.

Now… I’m on a mission to help more people break free from lives that don’t feel good for them and create more freedom through starting and growing an online business.
