About Event

Dreaming of moving to France but unsure how to make it work financially or legally? This workshop is for you.

In this 90-minute live session, I’ll walk you through how I moved to France—not with a corporate relocation package or a partner’s job, but by building my own one-person business and applying for the Profession Libérale/ Entrepreneur visa.

I’ll share exactly how I packaged my skills, structured my solo business, and navigated the French visa process—not just for myself, but also for my husband (who had zero freelance/ self-employment experience when we started). This is a real-world, boots-on-the-ground look at what’s possible when you take self-employment seriously as a path to global mobility.

But this workshop isn’t just about visas—it’s about helping you think like a business of one and giving you the tools to start making your move.

🎯 You’ll walk away with:

  • A clear understanding of how the French Profession Libérale/ Entrepreneur visa works, what’s required, and whether it’s a good fit for you

  • A breakdown of the documents, planning, and financial benchmarks needed to apply (including how renewals work once you're in France) with updated visa changes as of July 2025

  • A step-by-step guide to packaging your existing skills and experience into a solo business you can run from anywhere

  • Live brainstorming exercises to help you generate business ideas, clarify your niche, and identify your first service offer

  • Concrete advice on tools, systems, and structures to keep your business lean and professional

  • Ample time for Q&A, discussion, and idea-sharing—so you leave feeling confident, not confused

  • A take-home Solopreneur Startup Kit (PDF) including templates, checklists, prompts, and tools to help you take your next step


👥 This is for you if:

  • You’re a professional with years of experience—but no clue how to work for yourself

  • You’re seriously exploring a move to France

  • You want to start freelancing or consulting but feel overwhelmed by the business side of things

  • You value honest, grounded guidance over vague inspiration
