Winter Solstice: Why We Hate the Side Hustle
For the next two weeks, Mimi and I are doing what we’re calling the Winter Solstice series where we will be riffing on topics. We are all smack dab in the middle of the holidays and we want to provide you with some thoughtful points of view on different concepts and ideas.
You can’t be a woman in business and not have heard people talking about the side hustle. This term ranges from the woman who has a creative side business on Etsy to a freelancing service business, or those selling MLM products, side hustle is all everyone is talking about.
In this week’s episode, we’re talking all about the side hustle and why I personally hate the term.

Are YOU a Modern Gen X Woman?
In this episode, we riff on:
How the word hustle does sound exhausting. Hustling -- when you’ve got a full-time job and other responsibilities are the quickest way to burn out. We believe you can build a business, step-by-step in a way that may take longer but is more successful and sustainable.
Much Like Tuesdays, Side Hustle needs a rebrand. The word hustle gets under my skin. We work hard enough in every single thing we do, why the heck do we have to be ‘hustling’ too?
“I have an even better idea, why don’t we say, I work full time AND I’m an entrepreneur. TO me that’s much more powerful than moonlighting or freelancing.”—Mimi Bishop
