“Be your own boss” is sold as freedom.
But for many people today, it quietly turns into something else.
In this highlight, we talk about how low barriers to entry, hustle culture, and constant accessibility have created a new trap — where being your own boss means being the CEO, employee, marketer, and creator all at once. What looks like freedom on the outside often becomes a 24/7 hamster wheel, especially for creatives, freelancers, and Gen Z.
The conversation moves through why so many young people choose independence, how awareness and comparison change expectations, and why working for yourself can sometimes feel even more exhausting than having a boss.
This clip is taken from a longer podcast about youth burnout, low-desire society, opting out, and the pressure to find meaning in work — not just survive.
