@shanarra_goode: People asking which box they're in. People realizing they've been chasing status they don't even want. Someone wondering if you can build in the "low status, high income" box while staying in your 9-5. That's when I knew this needed a deeper breakdown. The framework comes from @itshannahzhang — she put language to something I'd been living but couldn't articulate. Income on one axis. Status on the other. Four boxes. And the one nobody tells you to want is often the one that gives you your life back. I've lived in every single quadrant. Business analyst making $57K. Fitness instructor in New York making even less. Director-level at a major retailer making $200K with the title, the healthcare, the 401K, and the identity crisis that came with it. Now I'm a founder. Two companies most people have never heard of. No institution backing me. No recognizable title. Just building. The hardest part wasn't getting to the "impressive" box. It was realizing I wanted to leave it. Swipe through to see what each box actually looks like — and where I landed on purpose. If the money stayed exactly the same, which box would you actually choose? #femalefounder #corporatetocreator #buildinpublic #leavingcorporate #financialfreedom INCOME VS STATUS FRAMEWORK · HIGH INCOME LOW STATUS CAREER · LEAVING CORPORATE FOR FREEDOM · BUILDING WEALTH AS A SOLOPRENEUR · FEMALE FOUNDER CAREER JOURNEY · CORPORATE TO CREATOR · UNGLAMOROUS BUSINESS OWNER · FINANCIAL INDEPENDENCE FOR WOMEN
