Entrepalooza
A self-paced online workbook for adults in the middle of a change who want to test what comes next in real life, not just plan it on paper. It’s written for people navigating a transition, including people in recovery or reentry. You don’t need a business idea, a passion or a personal story to start.

Each step ends with a choice that’s yours to make:

Online and self-paced. The workbook is open now. Pilot 1 tests the program, not you: whether it’s clear, doable and worth your time.
In development
Working with community organizations
We’re talking with community organizations about running Entrepalooza alongside the work they already do. If your organization supports adults in transition, we’d like to hear from you.
What we don’t do
- Therapy, treatment, diagnosis or crisis support.
- Promise a job, an income or business success.
- Decide your direction for you.
