Feeling trapped by debt? Get the strategies, tactics, and resources to help you pay yours off faster! Using Side Hustles to Pay Off Your Student Loans and Other Debts FasterDepending on where you are with your financial journey you may be dealing with debt. In some cases, a mountain of it. Right now people are keeping an eye out on student loans and understandably so. It’s been estimated that 62% of college seniors who graduated from nonprofit colleges in 2019 had student loan debt. It’s a burden on many budgets and can feel even heavier if you have other debts like car payments and credit cards. Did you know that the average payment for a used car is over $400? It may be that earning more is a necessity if you’re trying to get out of debt as soon as possible. This is why I wanted to share from the archives a discussion I had with Kevin, attorney, side hustler, and the creator of Financial Panther. Years ago, he used side hustles to pay off $87,000 in student loans in less than 3 years! In this episode we'll get into:

Looking to balance work and family? LaTisha Styles shares her take and story on being a happily married entrepreneur! Entrepreneurs + Marriage One of the ways the pandemic has reshaped things is by seeing how many more people are working from home. I’ve seen different reports and estimates give ranging from 25-32%. Working from home offers many benefits, but has its challenges. I’ve been working from home for years and had a flow. When my husband went full-time remote and the kids did the virtual academy with school, we knew we had reconfigured a few things to make it work. We created spaces for school and work and had to adjust our schedules and routines. As working parents, we have to be careful that work doesn’t spill over to family time. It’s especially hard as an entrepreneur, where you have a huge impact on your business’s bottom line. This is why I’m pulling from the archives an interview I had with LaTisha Styles. She’s the Founder & CEO of You’ve Got Clients®, a marketing consultancy. When I first met her she created Young Finances to help millennials build better habits with their money. During our chat, Latisha shared her thoughts, experiences, and tips on being an entrepreneur and being fully engaged with her family. In this episode we get into:

Looking to boost your income? Learn how to find and launch a side hustle so Are you thinking of starting a side hustle, but you're afraid of burnout? Learn how you can have the best of both worlds – diversify your income and earn money on the side while keeping it sustainable and fit around your schedule! Boost and Diversify Your IncomeAll this month we’re focusing on ways to earn more. The concern though is about the time and effort involved with building up another stream of income. Most of us are busy and we're not looking to take on a second job at night or the weekends, especially if we have other responsibilities, including kids. This is where a side hustle can be a practical solution. First, though, let's talk about some of the worries people have about starting a side hustle. Type in ‘side hustle' on the web and you'll get some pretty ridiculous claims. Too many times it's this empty promise of getting rich quick. Or it's all about the grind, where people brag about the crazy hours they put in. When I say side hustle, I'm referring to part-time entrepreneurship that is built around your schedule. I know there are those who push the grind, but I’m not interested in sharing ways you can burn-out. I want you to find and launch a sustainable business on the side. Today's show is designed to help you figure out if this is the right option for you. From the vault, I found a gem of conversation with Nick Loper. He’s the creator of Side Hustle Nation and author of multiple books. One thing I respect about Nick is how open he is about when things work and when they don’t. If you decide to pursue a side hustle, I want you to have a clear view of challenges that can come up and resources that can make things easier. In this episode we get into:
