Learn to Monetize Your Skills With Side–Gigs, with Christine Schaub
Manage episode 432127774 series 2632721
Women are natural multitaskers and can benefit from monetizing their downtime if needed.
Christine Schaub is the author of the book Queen of the Side Hustle: Unleashing Your Potential for Extra Income. She makes her living with six side gigs, including hosting the award-winning web series Come On Over. She co-authored the number one Amazon Best Selling memoir, and was a former press secretary for a US congressman. Christine also has a background in corporate communications within healthcare, pharmaceutical, real estate, and entertainment companies.
Women are master multitaskers. Christine explains all the options and skills women accumulate throughout life, often not recognizing these skills as opportunities for side gig income.
She shares how to learn more skills without financial risks and how to strategize for success in the side gig economy.
The side gig economy offers freedom and flexibility but lacks benefits like healthcare so keeping corporate jobs with side hustling is a win-win combination. However, just like any job, side hustling can lead to burnout, so balancing multiple side jobs and learning when to say no is crucial.
The key is to experiment with side hustles to ensure financial stability. Be flexible and open to all avenues to maximize your potential.
