When I first started side hustling, I was drinking the multitasking kool-aid and I was totally overwhelmed trying to balance everything. I was able to learn the power of time blocking and avoid multi-tasking. This one thing changed my world. I was able to really focus on what was important to me. 

Today specifically on the Side Hustle Freedom Podcast, I am talking all about how to balance with your side hustle and your 9 to 5. I’m actually not sure I really agree with this but I think it’s important to talk about.

We are striving for harmony and fluidity with our lives and our schedules. I have five tips for you on just how you can go about creating that harmony.

Here's my free Time Blocking Template.

Today on Side Hustle Freedom, I am speaking with Catherine Calmes. Catherine is well versed in the side hustle world. She was working a corporate job and found herself coming home and watching tv. She wasn’t married and didn’t have kids at the time. That’s when she decided she didn’t want to live her life that way and could better utilize her time. 

Now Catherine is the Director of Operations for coaches and helps her clients organize their business. She took her physical ability and skillset in organizing to a virtual space.

Learn more about Catherine and how she fell in love, planned a wedding, worked full time, and ran a business, all while crushing the side hustle game during this episode. 

Today on Side Hustle Freedom, I am bringing you a bite-size episode about what side hustle success is. The thing about side hustle success is it can be anything you want it to be. You can have success right now, in this very moment. Yes, right now.

A lot of times we can get caught up in other people’s definition of success which can stifle or sway our desire. We don’t start side hustles to be like someone else. We all start side hustles because there is something burning inside of us that we want to get out. Don’t lose sight of that.

During our conversation, Elizabeth shares valuable insights related to building a brand and a thriving business. While some might not agree, Elizabeth believes it’s important to let go of the follow, unfollow game. Treat people the way you would in a real room. Stop curating other humans.
