Episode 14: The Soul Searcher with Rachel Meltzer

Bold Women In Business Podcast by honeybebold

Entrepreneurship can be lonely and soul sucking, if you’re not careful. It can also be an incredibly meaning-filled opportunity for soul searching and values alignment.

In this episode, we’re talking with Rachel Meltzer about her experience shifting from a lonely freelancer mindset to a community-driven, meaning-making, soul-infusing entrepreneur mindset. We talk about how she’s made that shift, her experiences with van life and solo traveling, and her path to finding herself.

If you need a little positive soul infusion as we head into 2025 (who doesn’t??), this episode is for you.

Key takeaways:

• Transitioning from freelancing to business ownership requires a mindset shift and being proactive in your marketing.
• Always follow up with people more than you think you should!
• Building connections and nurturing relationships is key to avoiding loneliness in entrepreneurship AND finding clients as a freelancer.
• Women in business often struggle with underpricing and seeking validation, but it's important to value yourself and charge what you’re worth.
• The best part of running a business as a woman is the opportunity to connect with and support other women in the entrepreneurial community.
