Episode 890
THEMES & TAKEAWAYS: We’ve just finished week 23 of Season III! This week, we featured a juice bar owner that sells weighted blankets (earning hundreds of thousands of dollars), a designer who leads guided sailing tours in the Mediterranean (and I want to sign up…), a personal finance blogger who works from a 180 sq ft Airstream trailer … and so much more! In other news, I’ve been on the road!! It's week one for the 100 Side Hustles book tour, and I’m so excited to be able to share stories with a live audience again. Next week I’ll be in New York City, Boston, SF, and Portland, Oregon. Head on over to the tour page to see where I'm headed! In this action-packed recap: I want to talk about something important: insecurity, vulnerability, and the dreaded imposter syndrome. If these topics resonate with you, know that you're not alone—I hear about this ALL the time! I’ll also bring you an audio update from a previously featured side hustler.
WHERE ARE THEY NOW: Today, we have an update from Linda Trieu who was featured on the show in Ep. 355. Listen to the Weekly Recap to hear from Linda! You can also check out her website, Three Hearts Apparel!
