We need real chats and honest inspo when it comes to creating and scaling your business, because there’s a lot about building a business that’s thankless and lonely - yet somehow once we get started, it’s kinda hard to stop at one.

Marie Dowling is CEO of Newsary and EzyCom and is so incredibly real about this journey, just the kind of business builder we love here on Unemployed & Afraid.

In this chat you’ll hear about:
Getting bitten by the business bug
Validating your ideas and not being afraid to iterate
How chance encounters can elevate your business
Going to market with an MVP
Working on two businesses with a young family
The lack of visibility we have on the challenges we face (and how to face them anyway)
Defining your story to the media and why it matters
And the loneliness we experience in business

Plus she has the most magical French accent that we could just listen to all day.

A business podcast for the brave self-employed.

Growing your own business can be one of the most gratifying, wonderful, life-changing experiences around. It’s also scary as hell. This is a weekly podcast for the ones who have made the brave decision to employ themselves anyway.

We're for the full gamut of business experience - from Solopreneurs, Side-hustlers, Micro-business, Small Business, Medium business, Independent, VC backed, Bootstrapped and more - here for the real stories and priceless insights of it all, well beyond the PR headlines.

Join fellow business-builder Kim Kerton as she dives into the realities of starting something from scratch, helping you feel less alone in the lows and reminding you of the highs that make it all worthwhile. Hear real talk and raw feels from people right in the thick of it and feel seen as you listen.

Small business is tough - all business is tough - it will be one of the most intense things you'll ever do but it will also be the most impactful experience you can imagine. So surround yourself with a community of business owners willing to share with you their learnings, from those a few steps ahead, to many business milestones ahead, and even those just behind, and feel supported to build the business of your unique dreams. 

This is a podcast built to support you to build your own small business, to tackle the statistics and keep more of us in business for ourselves. To say thanks, you can support this independent podcast and small business by shouting your host a cuppa at buymeacoffee.com/unemployedpod

Get in touch at unemployedandafraid.com.au to be part of the show or to become a sponsor (we would love the support!).
