Girls That Startup: Why I Love Being a L...

Girls That Invest
About this episode

Welcome back to Girls That Startup, a weekly series where we spill the tea on how to create a seven-figure side hustle - because no one saves their way to wealth. You’re joined by Sim, a seven-figure business owner, and Maia, an entrepreneur in the making.


This week, Sim and Maia discuss the concept of lifestyle entrepreneurship, emphasising the importance of creating a business that supports one's lifestyle rather than consuming it. They explore the flexibility and freedom that come with being a lifestyle entrepreneur, as well as the challenges and boundaries that can arise. The conversation also covers practical steps for aspiring lifestyle entrepreneurs to determine their financial goals and structure their businesses accordingly.
