🧌The Top 10 Bad and Ugly Truths about Being an Entrepreneur

The Microdose Diet with Peggy Van de Plassche

🎢 Ready for the Rollercoaster of Entrepreneurship?

This week, I’m pulling back the curtain on the real truths about being an entrepreneur—and trust me, it’s not all bubblegum and rainbows.

From free-stuff seekers to friendly backstabbers, and from WTF business proposals to the joys of navigating podcasting bait-and-switches, I’m spilling it all in my latest newsletter:

🧌 The Top 10 Bad and Ugly Truths About Being an Entrepreneur

💬 Some highlights (or lowlights, depending on your perspective):

• That time someone asked me to endorse a competitor’s product—while holding it up to my face.
• Why "free coaching over coffee" has become the modern entrepreneur’s bane.
• The strange phenomenon of “frenemies” who buy your $25 book and expect lifelong devotion.
• And yes, I’ve thought about starting a side hustle in blackmail and extortion. 😉

But it’s not all grim—I promise there’s humor, some hard-earned wisdom, and a reminder that even the worst situations can turn you into a diamond. 💎

If you’ve ever been in business—or just enjoy a good laugh at the expense of those “WTF” moments—this edition is for you.
