MWH 536 : The Entrepreneurship Boom: 1 in 3 Adults Want To Start An Online Business (and What This Means For You)

The numbers are in for 2026, and they are extraordinary. One in three US adults plan to start a business or side hustle in the next twelve months. In Australia, one in four. 65% of aspiring founders say they will use AI to launch. Entrepreneurship is officially the number one wealth-building strategy heading into 2026, outranking saving, investing, and working harder at a traditional job.In this episode, I sit with what this shift actually means for the women listening. Because when I started over ten years ago, recording podcasts in 30-degree heat with a baby on my hip, building an online business as a mother was taboo. The narrative has changed. And the women quietly building the most sustainable businesses right now are the ones in their 40s and 50s, with wisdom, expertise, and a body of work earned the hard way.You will hear the story of Selma, a psychologist who joined Freedom Filled® Business Mentorship and sold out her first group programme before she even built it. After three years of feeling stuck, three weeks of clear structure changed everything.Whether you are a coach, a practitioner, a creative, a teacher, or any kind of expert with a methodology that gets results, this episode is your sign. The market has never been more ready. The cultural permission has never been stronger.
