WEEKLY RECAP: Episode 1,000 And Beyond!

Notes from Chris

Episode 1002

THEMES & TAKEAWAYS: We’ve just finished week 39 of Season III! This week featured the wildlife biologist who shoots and scores with gloves for outdoor hockey players, a student who gets a perfect score on the SAT and then builds a $20 million business on the side while going to med school. What can I say, we had to level-up this week… because we crossed over the rubicon to Episode 1,000!! Just some brief comments on this before we keep rolling. I feel really great about this and I don’t mean “Wow, I feel great that I recorded 1,000 episodes” - it really is a team effort - but I feel great because of the community.

- Thanks to all 900+ stories that these 1,000 episodes draw on.
- Thanks to everyone who has left a review or told their friends about the show.
- Thanks to everyone in Side Hustle Society.
- And thanks to all of our listeners.

The best is yet to come. We will be continuing through the end of 2019 and I can’t yet tell you exactly what will happen after that, but I will say that we won’t be stopping. There are too many people who need ideas and daily motivation! Among other things, in the next two months I’ll be making updates to the SHS site about…

- Events
- Society
- Resources
