Small business is big business, no matter which way you look at it.

This episode with Narelle Wilson, founder of Volta Consulting, is all about giving you the real, relatable, vulnerable experience of making small to medium businesses you love, so that you’re hyped to keep smashing it.

We talk about:


The realities of stepping away from a long held corporate career, in particular within male dominated environments, and the sneaky glory of a slow goodbye when doing so


Studying for the sheer passion of it, whether for the first time or 5th, at any damn age you like


Mitigating start-up mode risk – some very valuable advice on that


And considering the legacy you might be able to leave with the work that you do, a particular area of interest for me and anyone else who may be living a life childfree.

It’s encouragement to lean into your core, developed skills to bridge you into the new space you want to be in while learning new skills along the way.

There is so much goodness in the sharing of this incredible woman’s business building story, if you’re aligning a business o your values, this episode is for you.

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 and side-hustler 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
