Notes from Chris
Episode 421
LISTENER QUESTIONS: I recently received a great email from Rachel. She has a question that a number or people have asked in different ways, but I love the way that she phrased it. Here's what Rachel had to say:- Hi Chris! Today, I was filled with excitement as I opened my Amazon box to the bright, yellow cover of your book. I can’t wait to dig in! My question for you: is it possible to create a side hustle for a brick-and-mortar business while maintaining your day job? It seems like many people’s success is with low overhead online businesses, but my dream is to open a wellness studio. Am I biting off too much to chew with a side hustle of this nature?Thank you for taking the time to read this!

We've already launched our first iteration of the Side Hustle Society, and if you missed round one, round two is coming very soon!
This online training program is designed to take you step by step through starting a side hustle project of your own, and it's also going to be an online community where you can connect with other side hustlers, make introductions, and get peer feedback.
We'll be opening round two on Tuesday, February 27th, so visit our Society page if you're interested in being a part of a strong and supportive side hustle community!
Here's what's coming up next...
Each week I'll feature more stories from people who are starting side hustles without quitting their job. Here's a sneak peek of what's coming next week:
- A California-based professional uses her autoimmune disease to learn about healthy performance food, creating two businesses in the process
- When a young woodworker receives a wooden bow tie as a gift, he’s unimpressed. After making his own, he earns $20,000 while going to high school full-time
- And so much more!
