0:00.0	You're listening to the CIPA to CEO podcast, episode 96. Hey, guys, Ellen here. I am really excited for today's episode. I have a real treat for you. Instead of me interviewing a guest or recording my own solo episode, I am actually the one in the interview seat today. And my friend Tiff Chang is going to be interviewing me. So this episode is actually one that was
0:24.0	published on her own podcast, which I highly recommend. If you love business podcast, you're going to
0:29.1	love hers. Hers is called Become an Entrepreneur. And I just felt like it was such an honest
0:36.9	conversation about what it's really like to leave your
0:41.8	full-time job, leave the corporate or cubicle world, and go out full-time on your own as an
0:47.9	entrepreneur, as the CEO of your business. And there's a lot about my story that I shared
0:53.3	with her in our original conversation that I feel like I've never really talked about on this podcast, even just touching on, you know, growing up what it was like as a first generation Asian American. You know, I immigrated here from, from China with my family when I was very young and how that experience molded
1:13.6	me up to things like ultimately what decisions led me to leaving my corporate job, why I believe
1:20.5	your comfort zone is like a wolf and sheep's clothing, how to ditch the employee mindset for good,
1:26.5	my number one strategy in business, which has
1:29.5	nothing to do with marketing at all, which I think you guys will really enjoy some of the
1:34.9	tips that I have to share around that. And just so many other things that I've learned
1:40.9	along the journey going from cubicle to CEO. There's a ton of good advice in here
1:47.0	that I just really felt like you guys would benefit from and I wanted to be able to share it
1:51.7	with you all. So I just want to thank Tiff real quick for letting me republish this episode on our
1:57.6	show. And again, if you are a podcast listener, definitely go check out TIF's podcast
2:02.2	too. It is Become an Entrepreneur. And if you want to connect with her on Instagram, her handle is
2:08.7	at it's Tiff Chang, C-H-E-M-G. Her website is the same name. I'll link all of her stuff below
2:15.1	if you want to go say hi. But without further ado, let's just
2:19.9	roll this episode. Enjoy.
2:25.2	Welcome to the Cubicle to CEO podcast. I'm your host of marketing minimalist, Ellen Yin. I'm a first
2:35.5	generation Asian American founder who profitably grew my business to $1 million by age 26,
