Should You Start a Dad Hustle? Ask Yourself 3 Questions
Thursday Sep 15, 2022
Thursday Sep 15, 2022
In this episode, I help you determine whether starting a digital side hustle is right for you. While over 70 million people are currently side hustling in America alone, it's not for everyone. As a dad there are even more considerations that you need to make with your schedule and your family life. We'll talk about:
How to determine if you want or need more income in your life that would be brought in through a side hustle and what you would actually do with it if you got it.
Why identifying a message that you want to share with others or a skill / lesson that you want to teach is central to deciding whether or not you want to side hustle in this way.
How to find the time to spend on your new side hustle and make sure that you are ready for it with your lifestyle, while not compromising time with family.
Clarity is power, so the more clear you can get on whether or not a digital side hustle is for you, the more likely you are to make it happen. I look forward to shedding some light on these important questions for you through this episode.
Happy Dad Hustling!

How a book I learned about 5 years earlier impacted my entire choice of side hustle in 2018.
How I started an online membership site to earn passive income and it exploded over night.
How I cracked the code for how to make extra income while I'm sleeping on any one of my side hustles.
Sometimes we're so close to a breakthrough and we must just continue to push forward for a little bit longer. You'll hear my story of hard work and victory that served as the beginning of the side hustling framework and philosophy that you can now adopt in your own work.

My Dad Hustle Story - Part 2: Building Blocks
Wednesday Sep 07, 2022
Wednesday Sep 07, 2022
In this episode, I go into several building blocks that helped shape for me the framework that has become known as the S.M.A.R.T.E.R. Side Hustle system. Key lessons earlier in my career, created an obvious strategy and path to pursue and now I'm teaching this to others. We'll talk about:
• How the success of 17 small business marketing clients for my own marketing firm drove me back to another day job.
• How I sunk $30K in debt through a poorly planned side hustle and what I learned from it.
• How my first-born son got my attention when he was 3 years old and changed the entire trajectory of my life and career.
Through these stories, you'll realize that there is a better way to find the extra income, influence and impact you've been looking for. Often the most important insights come from lessons that illuminate the many of these things that we don't want for our side hustles or our families. These often can be the most profound lessons we need to learn.

My Dad Hustle Story - Part 1: Beginnings
Tuesday Sep 06, 2022
Tuesday Sep 06, 2022
In this episode, I go deep into my entrepreneurial beginnings and where some of my desire to side hustle might have come from early on. Like me, you'll probably relate to some of the stories shared as often what we're interested in now as adults took root 3much earlier in our lives. We'll talk about:
• My entrepreneurial parents and family
• Early neighborhood exploits including carnivals and circuses in my own backyard!
• Touring with my own magic illusion show throughout the United States during my college years
The lesson through all this reminiscing is that often what you're supposed to be doing now is reflected in your interests when you were a child or young adult. Your past leaves clues to a brighter future...so start looking more closely. A smarter side hustle idea could be closer than you think.
Happy Dad Hustling!
