Happy New Year! May this be a year of stacking up incremental improvements and optimizations — getting 1% better every day — that’s the idea.

To help out with that goal, I’m excited to introduce Chris Hutchins. He's a serial entrepreneur, a new dad, a professional life optimizer, and host of the new AllTheHacks podcast.

The stated mission of All the Hacks is to help listeners upgrade every aspect of their life while spending less and saving more.

I think that’s a mission we can get on board with since this show is also about upgrading your life through entrepreneurship.

Chris shared a full docket of hacks in this episode to help you start your year off right, and I did my best to chime in as well.

Many of these are quick actionable ideas you can apply to make little upgrades to your life.

Tune in to this episode of The Side Hustle Show to hear 33 hacks covering work and productivity, networking, money, travel, and health.

Selling JPEGs and other digital collectibles - do NFTs present some of the hottest investment opportunities right now?

You could hardly open your laptop or unlock your phone this year without reading about NFTs or non-fungible tokens.

When you start to see jpegs selling for tens of thousands of dollars, you can’t help but ask, wait, what’s going on here?

And as is often the case when these new shiny things pop up, I try to learn from those who are a few steps ahead.

In this episode you’ll meet Michael Quan from FinanciallyAlert.com, he’s a father of 2 who retired at 36, and calls himself “an accidental NFT investor.”

I met Michael at FinCon this fall, and called him up to try and get some clarity on the murky world of NFTs, and where opportunity may lie for side hustlers, on the buying, trading, and creating side.

How does turning a passion into a profitable side hustle sound?

That’s exactly what this week’s guest, Luke Lorick of Tailgating-Challenge.com has done.

Luke took his passion for tailgating — the pre-game parking lot party variety, not the annoying driving habit variety, and turned that into a long-running and profitable online side hustle.

It wasn’t an overnight success. In fact, Luke says himself that “Overnight successes don’t happen overnight.”

Luke has put in years of hard work building strong relationships with brands - some of which are huge household names - and growing an audience of more than 250,000 across his social media accounts to get where he is today.

Struggling to perform at your best from the moment you wake till you go to sleep at night?

In today’s episode, we’re talking about a key component of your physical and mental foundation to be a high-performing human, and one that we probably don’t give a lot of thought to.

Still, it’s something you spend roughly a third of your life doing, so it’s a huge lever to pull in terms of optimizing your energy and your output in the world.

Yes, we’re talking about sleep.

I promise this episode won’t put you to sleep as we explore 9 quick ways to optimize your horizontal hours to wake up feeling superhuman.

To help walk me through these is Riley Jarvis from TheSleepConsultant.com and SleepForSideHustlers.com.

Riley started through his own health journey many years ago and discovered that sleep was the missing link that brought everything together.

After some biohacking and learning from top doctors in the field, he now helps others get the root of their sleep issues rather than masking the symptoms — all about building that foundation so you can feel amazing and be the best version of you.

Tune in to The Side Hustle Show interview to hear 9 of Riley’s top tips for getting a better night’s sleep.
