Summary
We’re kicking off this new year by welcoming new and returning listeners to Side Hustle Pro with a reminder that it’s never too late—or too early—to pursue a side hustle. Inspired by an email from a listener, I was reminded that my focus on Black women entrepreneurs still resonates with a wide audience, proving that clarity in your target listener doesn’t exclude anyone else who might benefit.
In this episode I share the five areas of focus for starting or growing your business in 2025:
- Get clear on your main priority
- Choose a channel to showcase your expertise
- Organize your content (you likely have more than you realize!)
- Trust yourself to figure things out, even when you get stuck
- Invest in education and resources that level up you and your business
Highlights include:
00:00 Intro
03:00 Uplifting women entrepreneurs
