Seeking mentorship on running my own businesses

Veteran

Sidney Scott Hanover, MD

I'm getting out in 10 months hopefully at which point I'd like to put forth more energy towards making other forms of income. I recently launched an online fitness business and I'm having a hard time balancing my service with trying to grow and scale that.

I'm looking to have a smooth transition into civilian life and I'm aware in 10 months I may not be able to do that just yet. I've been looking into different contracting jobs and apprenticeship/internship programs to help me transition out of the military with a potential job lined up (Microsoft MSSA).

My ultimate goal in the next 5 years is to have enough financial freedom to explore life a bit more and be able to have more time to learn and experience.
