Motivating!

I love listening to this show. Every single time I find myself more motivated to keep up the pace! Thank you!

Inspiration is good

Right after my morning meditation and coffee listening to side hustle school is the first thing I do. Each show inspires me every day. I'm gaining enough inspiration and knowledge from each of the shows to hopefully someday take action and start my own side hustle. The show is so well done, short and to the point. I can't wait to hear what's coming the next morning.
