@abundancewithmichael: That's how a lot of real transitions happen. Not in one dramatic leap, but in quiet evenings, early mornings, weekends, and hundreds of small consistent steps no one sees. Your day job can be more than just a paycheck. It can be your runway. Your first investor. Your way to build something on your own terms without rushing from desperation. You do not need to have everything figured out on day one. You just need to start building before you're forced to. Build the skill. Build the audience. Build the product. Build the proof. And one day, the thing you did after work becomes the thing you no longer need to escape from.
