Anyone who has completely changed careers/became self employed...

And inspire me with tales of how it all worked out? I have always been employed, owned a business with ex DH and dabbled in part time self employment alongside being employed. But from tomorrow I begin training in a completely new area, after months of living like paupers to fund it, and plan to become solely self employed once completed in a few weeks. I am fucking terrified 😬

I have done all the research I can, spent months perfecting my business plan, am confident in my abilities and yet still I am sat here nursing a coffee and my head is rolling around on the floor full of questions and I'm really battling that little fucker Self Doubt who keeps trying to swipe my feet from underneath me!

What area are you going into? I want to be self employed in the future, well I want to earn enough from it to go part time in a traditional job at least, I just don't know what do for a business

Beauty 😳😬 specifically semi permanent make up (eyebrows, eyeliner, lips), but also training in Dermaplaning, Plasma Fibroblast, and a couple of other diary fillers like LVL lashes and wax/tints/henna brows. Not all of these things are needed but I guess the more in demand services I can offer the better chance I have long term.

It has cost an extortionate amount. I think that is why I'm so scared. DP kindly pointed out we could have gone all inclusive in an island bungalow set in water for 3 weeks when I was completing payment for it last night... 🙄
