I speak to a lot of people who daydream about leaving their current job to start a business. Alison Forster is someone who has done just that.

After about 20 years in corporate world, it got to a point where she could no longer keep doing what she had been doing. She saved up a nest egg and made the leap, leaving the corporate world and its accompanying six-figure salary, moved across the continent, stopped what she calls “destination obsession”, started her new business, and began her new life.

In this interview, she shares how she made it happen. Enjoy.

“You’re never going to feel ready. Just do it.”—Alison Forster
