Lucas and Luna explore the rise of the one-person business economy, where individuals trade corporate security for the freedom of going solo. Each episode examines a specific aspect of solopreneurship: how a freelance graphic designer in Berlin built a €300K annual retainer practice without employees, why a former McKinsey consultant launched a solo law firm specializing in digital rights, and what the IRS data on Schedule C filers reveals about income volatility among independent workers. Lucas brings the numbers—tax implications, healthcare costs, retirement strategies for the self-employed—while Luna challenges assumptions about burnout, isolation, and the myth of 'being your own boss.' They dissect tools like Stripe Atlas, Gusto, and Notion, and debate whether platforms like Upwork and Fiverr are pathways or traps. The show is for the part-time freelancer eyeing full-time independence, the side-hustler scaling up, or the wage employee wondering if they have what it takes. No motivational fluff—just concrete trade-offs: How do you price your time when your time is your only inventory? What happens to your identity when your job title is simply your own name?
