Synopsis

Thinking about leaving your 9 to 5 job to start your own business - but don’t want to burn it all down?

You’re not alone. Whether you’re craving more time with your family, more meaning in your work, or simply more space to breathe, Outside of the 9 to 5 will guide you in designing a business that works for you - without the hustle, hype, or burnout.

This isn’t a get-rich-quick promise or a leap-before-you-look fantasy. It’s a grounded, step-by-step roadmap from Anna Lundberg - former corporate strategist turned trusted coach for solopreneurs and experts ready to do things differently.

Drawing on a decade of experience supporting clients to successfully transition from employee to business owner, Anna shares her proven 5 Pillars framework to help you:

🔹 Redefine what success means to you (hint: it’s not just about hitting six figures)
🔹 Build confidence and resilience to navigate the messy middle of self-employment
🔹 Choose a business model that supports both your income and your ideal lifestyle
🔹 Create a personal brand that attracts the right clients - without shouting online
🔹 Design your weeks for real work-life integration, not just more work from home

Whether you’re just starting to explore your options or you’ve already quit and are now wondering "What next?", this book will meet you where you are - with clarity, practical exercises, and honest advice from someone who’s been there.

You won’t find hype or hollow motivation here. Instead, you’ll find:

• A clear alternative to the corporate career path
• Tools to build a business that’s both profitable and purposeful
• Encouragement to trust yourself - because your next chapter is yours to design

If you’re ready to escape the 9 to 5... but not your ambition, your values, or your sanity - this book is for you.
