Weekly Recap: Free Video Training + How to Start a Workshop

Notes from Chris

Episode 197

LISTENER Q&A:

This week we had a listener email from Julie and a listener question from Melinda:

• Julie wrote in to say that she has officially launched her side hustle, 'Peace, Love, and Sisters'—a weekend workshop for sisters. She got the idea for her side hustle after attending a couple’s workshop with her husband, and she realized that there was an opportunity to create something similar for sisters since there wasn't really a venue for such a thing.
• Melinda is a high school English teacher with a Masters in Communication, and she's considering starting a side hustle as a workshop facilitator where she would teach others how to create meaningful workshops. Someone she knows recommended that she join this Association that would facilitate networking and connections, but Melinda says the fees are a little much for her current budget. Her question—should she join this Association anyways because its benefits outweigh the costs, or are there other ways she can network with those in her field?
