Congratulations!. You’re now your own boss, have control over the pace at which you want to grow. And basically a master of your own time. No more constant pressure of running after deadlines, producing a continuous upward sloping sales graph. And you can truly enjoy the freedom of your own venture. There is also this hunger or drive to prove your mental justify why you left your job. Therefore there’s still a string of goalposts marking your way. And suddenly you’re asking yourself the question. If I knew starting my own venture would have this much pressure, I was better off in my comfortable corporate job. Is it a way to avoid replicating corporate burnout in your passionate Venture? Hi there! I’m Neha. I’ve always been part of the corporate tragedies, unfortunately for me. Today I have Shagun Malik, a health enthusiast who quit her corporate job to follow her passion after working for EY and HSBC. She quit and started her own brand of health cookies called Yoga Superfuel. I’ve seen her throughout this journey and have always admired her for how zen she is when she’s dealing with issues like missed shipping or sales during pandemics. And I thought she’s a perfect person to talk about how to avoid a burnout in your own venture.

  3. Hi Shagun. Thanks a lot for coming on this podcast and sharing your philosophy and your learnings from your journey as an entrepreneur. I have known you for decades, but could you just walk our listeners who are new to this, through your decision of leaving your corporate job? Hi, I am Shagun. I was in corporate life for about 15+ yrs (EY & then HSBC), doing well & earning well. And honestly never thought I would ever leave my comfort zone. I suppose that thought sowed the seed for a personal challenge along the way. And 3 yrs back I left my thriving profession to pursue my passion of empowering people on their health & wellness journey. That’s how Yoga Superfuel (my second baby) was born. So what were the dilemmas that you faced? I’m sure it wasn’t an easy decision in terms of implementation. One of the dilemmas I had was figuring out “what would drive me daily” so that I would genuinely enjoy building out the venture. To be honest one of the fears was “what if I get bored or I find it too challenging or regret leaving my job!” I did not want to be in that state. I wanted to genuinely share my passion of leading a healthy lifestyle. So I had to ask a few tough questions like: “would I run after the big numbers”? With aggressive targets and valuations. That’s what everyone seemed to be encouraging me towards. (with all good intentions of course). How else would I otherwise justify leaving my lucrative well-paying job? But then I asked myself: What brought me daily joy? What was I insecure about? Because no matter what, we all (mostly) always will have enough to survive. Food, shelter and my health – that’s never going to be a challenge to take care of! It’s a journey. Once I realized the main driver of why I started my own venture, the choices became easier. So my big why is learning and doing new things. Staying out of my comfort zone plus enjoying the journey every day and not postpone the happiness to a future hypothetical event. This meant minimizing things that didn’t bring me joy . www.crazytok.online
