Side hustles and entrepreneurship are often glamorized under a rose-colored “girl boss” lens.  People are drawn in by the allure of working on your own schedule, following your passion, or being your own boss.  However, it takes a lot of hard work and oftentimes the problem is knowing how to create a side hustle or business that won’t leave you feeling burnt out. Jess Joswick is the founder of Backbone Business. She is a business coach for online entrepreneurs and helps her clients earn the money they need with plenty of time to spare for happy hour, hobbies, and happiness. Jess will be joining us on the podcast today to give us her best tips for creating a successful (and most importantly sustainable) side hustle.
