CHRIS GUILLEBEAU / ONWARD PROJECT
About this episode

In this week’s “Failure Friday” segment, we hear from a tech professional who started offering design and development services as a side hustle. As the business grew, balancing it with a full-time job and personal life becomes overwhelming, leading to stress and performance issues at work.

Side Hustle School features a new episode EVERY DAY, featuring detailed case studies of people who earn extra money without quitting their job. This year, the show includes free guided lessons and listener Q&A several days each week.
