Creating your ideal life without a day job (with Lanuo, part 1)

About this episode

My guest this time is Lanuo (藍諾), founder of Lanuo Photography Academy. She started out as a freelance photographer, built a YouTube channel with more than 180,000 subscribers, and in 2022 founded her photography academy, which now has 15,000 students.

In this episode, Lanuo shares how she moved from client work to teaching online, and the idea behind her "Don't Want to Go to Work Lab" (不想上班實驗室): "Build your own ideal life, and stop working for someone else."

We talk about: • Why she moved from photography work that earned a million a month to teaching online • How she found a new business opportunity in the crisis of the pandemic • The story and core philosophy behind the "Don't Want to Go to Work Lab" course • The real challenges of freelancing, and how to make the transition

If you want to build your ideal life through a personal brand, you won't want to miss this one!
