How does learning music have anything to do with entrepreneurship and business? In this episode, I speak with a dear friend of mine, Tom, who has reminded me through music classes how important it is to step out of your comfort zone every now and then.  Tom recently left a 9-5 type role and realized how important freedom and flexibility is for his life. He talks about the realization of really crunching the numbers and coming to a conclusion that a freelance work life meant working less and getting paid the same (if not more than a 9-5). He learned through evaluation of his work and the types of students he enjoyed teaching, that it could look different. Through his reflections, he realized he didn’t have to have a work week that meant exhaustion.  And in this episode, he shares his journey on how he really started curating his life into one he truly enjoys and the moments during the pandemic that helped shape that.  Hop into this episode now! You won’t want to miss this conversation between two friends who are both former 9-5ers who now have full-time freedom!     If you want to listen to Tom’s music, you can find him on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/45558nRrnIpEhl2fFFzT2L?si=sqp1wPkFQ5mHPwNebHTrYw  Insta here: https://www.instagram.com/fromtomxo/    Email here:  tommcgeoch@gmail.com    Follow Leslie on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@letgoanddiscover    CutClass' website: https://www.letscutclass.com     Are you an employee or an entrepreneur?
