Escape The Rat Race is a personal and professional development company based in London which teaches and supports highly-motivated professionals to successfully transition from employee to starting their own businesses.
The company was founded in 2014 by Christian Rodwell.
The term ‘Escape The Rat Race’ can mean different things to different people. Most commonly, people refer to the ‘Rat Race’ as the repetitive 9-5 work lifestyle where you exchange time for money, living from pay cheque to pay cheque every month.
However, for others, escaping the rat race does not necessarily mean leaving your job, but simply creating a lifestyle that gives you more time freedom and enough money to be able to live on your own terms.
''Escape the Rat Race is a group of people who are actually changing their lives. I am not really one for networking groups, but the people at this Meetup are so welcoming and friendly, it didn’t matter that I was just starting out, they were so supportive.'' - Liesha Eggink
