Let’s Talk Entrepreneurship
Let’s talk entrepreneurship in advocacy. Many of us come from healthcare and advocacy work not business backgrounds but we bring so much experience, knowledge, and connection to this work.
I chose an LLC business structure and have found some amazing resources through local networking and community.
I am still balancing my nurse practitioner work while building my advocacy business intentionally.
I’d love to hear from others.
What structure did you choose?
Are you working another job while launching?
And for those established when did you decide to take the leap full time?
What resources helped you most along the way?
Let’s share and support each other as we grow this advocate community!

I opened an LLC. Although I am not actively building out my client list, as most of my time is spent working for GNA, but I often have kept a small client list.
The best resources along the way have been fellow advocates, who generously have shared their «what worked for me, what didn't»s, encouraged me to keep going and not be intimidated by the business aspect of ..well, running a business, and who willingly have shared their professional expertise when a case felt too big, or perhaps had an aspect I wasn't as comfortable with as the rest of the case. It gave me lived experiences that showed me just how invaluable having a community of advocate colleagues can be.
