LISTENER Q&A: This week we had a listener question from Amanda:- Amanda has been a face painter for the last seven years, but she's essentially hustled herself to the bone, and it has taken a physical toll on her and her health. She's really enjoyed episodes featuring side hustlers who are bringing in passive income, and she's thinking about adding an additional branch to her business that would allow her to bring in a passive income on the side in addition to the physical face painting that she already does. Right now Amanda is considering starting a YouTube channel for this purpose, but she hasn't really heard of any episodes that use this model.
CHRIS' RECOMMENDATIONS: If you're interested in creating a passive income stream like Amanda, here are some past episodes that you may find helpful:
