🎧 Audio Drop: You’re Not a Volunteer. Stop Running Your Business Like One.

When the CEO makes less than the intern, it’s not strategy—it’s self-abandonment in a capitalist costume.

In this episode, I pull back the curtain on a business epidemic no one’s talking about—founders pouring everything into their work while paying themselves scraps.

Inspired by a jaw-dropping conversation with a million-dollar entrepreneur who still couldn’t justify paying herself a livable wage, this piece walks you through the quiet harm of under-earning, the resentment that builds when your business no longer gives back, and what it means to reclaim your right to be fully resourced.

This is a call back to the body. Back to your worth. Back to the truth:

You didn’t leave a 9–5 just to be broke with better branding.

You deserve sovereign profit. Not someday—now.

Because profit isn’t selfish. Profit is protest.
