Becoming an entrepreneur takes grit. Deciding to do it solo takes courage. This is 1,000 Routes, the podcast where we explore the stories of solopreneurs who have made the bet on themselves to build a business that serves their life. Every episode you'll hear about the lessons they've learned and the uncommon routes they've taken to stand out in a world that is purposefully trying to commoditize them.

Rerelease: #9 The Chris Marr Route

Chris Marr is the founder of The Authoritative Coach, a practice dedicated to helping coaches and consultants become trusted experts in the eyes of their clients.

In this episode, Chris shares his journey from entrepreneur to employee and back again. He talks about how The Authoritative Coach started as an experiment, how he knew it was time to leave his job, and how he signed his first clients without even having a website. Chris also discusses the value of iteration, the importance of asking for what you want, and why he believes "figuring it out" is the real work.
