Mid-life awakenings

Unemployed & Afraid

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. 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.

Your host knows exactly how it feels to be a small-business owner, she is one.

Kim’s building a branded podcast consultancy firm (check it out at Good Side of the Bed) while also growing the Unemployed & Afraid podcast and brand.

On this podcast, Kim brings together business owners from all stages and scales to share the very personal journey of growth that is small business ownership, all to help others find the courage to get started and stick it out.

There’s a lot of successful people out there talking to other successful people about their success, that’s wonderful, but sometimes you need to feel genuinely seen and heard alongside the aspirational stuff.

She’s your business-building equal, creating a safe space for learning from each other so that nobody gets left behind - because this gig is tough.
