The Got Side Hustle Show
My side-hustling friends, I have come to the realization that it's time to say goodbye to the GOT SIDE HUSTLE show. As it started, "ELEVATE YOUR 8" and morphed into GOT SIDE HUSTLE, I have made some amazing friends and learned so much about myself and what it takes to build a business. I have come to really understand productivity and time management and how I can make the best of every hour in every day. I have created systems and procedures for working my side hustles in less than one hour a day. And now it's time to do something different. The show will still be around - and from time to...

HAPPY REX MANNING DAY! In honor of this amazing annual event, where we eat special brownies, pizza, and watch the delightful 1995 movie about teen angst, music, and making your dreams come true (sort of) - today's episode features Side Hustle Lessons derived from some of my FAVORITE moments in the film EMPIRE RECORDS. From ABC.NET.AU: " If you grew up in 1990s, you might be familiar with Empire Records.

OH, but I do live this creative accounting lady, Heather Zeitzwolfe of the “Get the Balance Right” podcast. Another Pod Pal I met from Adam Schaeuble’s bi-monthly Zoom Parties, Heather and I share a love of podcasting and crazy, creative hair colors. I really enjoyed talking to her and I know you will love this interview.
In her own words, “I'm a creative, empathic nerd who enjoys numbers. I help my clients understand their finances so that they can make empowered decisions in their business. My approach is the non-judgmental and shame-free approach. Through my coaching, I offer my clients accountability, support, and honest feedback.
I'm not your Dad's accountant (Unless your dad's accountant has funky colored hair, transforms tofu into delicious desserts, and geeks out on writing sketch comedy)! I'm here to get down and dirty in your numbers. I want you to understand your financials so that you can take your business to the next level. I work with creative small business owners helping them get a handle on their cash flow, increase their profitability, and forecast the future. But it's not all about profit, I help clients with a holistic approach to business that focuses on people, the planet, and purpose. I believe as business owners it is our duty to make choices on how it will impact our planet and society. Want to join me in this (peaceful) revolution?
I'm a total geek who loves creating spreadsheets, watching cult movies, and in my past life, I must have been a drag queen. l am passionate about learning, growing, and challenging myself, and helping my clients do the same. I get really excited about data, organizing processes, and exploring new technology. But...I also like to get super crazy on the dance floor and bust a move. My passions include cooking amazing plant-based foods, standing up for animal rights (this includes humans), and hosting my podcast.”
