EP 428 Parents, Digital Nomads, and Side Hustles: Why We’re Shifting Gears on the Podcast

Embracing Change: A New Chapter for Parents and Side Hustles on The Dark Horse Entrepreneur Podcast Welcome to a new chapter of The Dark Horse Entrepreneur Podcast, where we’re shifting our focus towards parents eager to embark on the journey of becoming digital nomads via side hustles.   The Journey to Digital Nomadism: A New Focus Our host, Tracy Brinkmann, draws on their personal experiences of juggling work, kids, and the arduous quest for a work-life balance. Realizing that a large part of our listeners share similar struggles and dreams, we’ve decided to gear our podcast to cater explicitly to hardworking parents.   Reasons for The Shift: Parents and Side Hustles This shift in focus isn’t just on a whim. We’ve narrowed down three compelling reasons why parents are the perfect candidates for starting a side hustle:   Financial Pressures Faced by Parents Parents face unique financial pressures, such as daycare and education costs. A side hustle can alleviate these pressures by providing an extra income stream.   The Quest for Time Control Parents yearn for control over their schedules to spend quality time with their kids. Side hustles offer the flexibility to achieve this.   Setting a Good Example for Your Kids Parents aim to set good examples for their kids by demonstrating that hard work and creativity can lead to success. Side hustles are perfect platforms to demonstrate this.   Quick Tips for Parents Considering a Side Hustle In this new chapter, we also share practical advice for parents ready to plunge into the world of side hustles. Here are three quick tips:   Passion Over Profit Start with something you love. It’s easier to find time for a hustle when it’s something you’re passionate about.   The Power of Starting Small Start with achievable goals, celebrate small victories, and allow your hustle to grow organically.   The Importance of Patience Remember, you’re a parent, you’re working, and you’re starting a business. Take it slow and be patient with yourself.   Join us in our new journey on The Dark Horse Entrepreneur Podcast, where we transform from hardworking parents to trailblazing digital nomads. Let’s make the dream a reality, together!
