5 Beliefs That Keep Women Stuck in Corporate Jobs (True or False?)
Hey everyone 💛
I’m working on a YouTube video for The Workshop Way™, and I’d love your thoughts before I film it.
These are 5 common beliefs women have about starting a creative business, and how I see them.
Please read through and tell me in the comments:
Does something resonate?
Is something missing?
Would you add your own belief or experience?
Your input will help me make the message even stronger and more supportive for women who are still afraid to start.
“Entrepreneurship is hard.”
True… and false.
Being employed (or unemployed) is also hard.
It’s difficult to find a job that aligns with your values AND respects your private life. Even in a “dream job,” you still need to manage impressions, politics, and relationships with people you’d normally avoid.
In your own business, you only need to make one person happy, your customer.
And the best part: you get to choose your customers.
“Entrepreneurship means constant hustle.” (selbst & ständig)
False.
You decide when and how you work.
I know entrepreneurs who work 2 hours a day and earn more than many full-time employees.
It depends on your business model, your pricing, your systems, and your energy, not on hustling.
“I need a business degree.”
False.
You need a skill, a way to create value, and the willingness to learn step by step. Not a degree. Not a perfect plan.
Business nowadays is simple:
Solve a real problem for real people.
“If I fail, I will lose everything.”
False.
You can start small, safely, slowly.
You don’t need to quit your job or take huge risks. Failure is feedback, not a catastrophe.
“It’s not the right time.”
False AND true.
There is never a perfect time.
But your life changes the moment you stop waiting for perfect conditions — and start with what you have.
What do you think?
Which belief do you hear the most from others?
Which one did you struggle with before starting?
Do you feel something important is missing here?
I’d love to hear your experiences, and I might include your insights in the video (with your permission )
Which belief has affected you on your journey of becoming an entrepreneur and how did you overcome it?
Entrepreneurship is hard
Entrepreneurship means constant hustle
I need a business degree.
If I fail, I will lose everything.
It’s not the right time.
