252: Pt. 2 - Slowing Down to Grow Fast (Spring 2022 Student Spotlight Special)
Leverage Your Day Job to Fuel Your Dream Job
We’re picking back up where we left off with Part 2 of the Side Hustler’s Student Spotlight Special featuring my current Spring 2022 students.
I suggest hitting pause and going back to Part 1 - Ep. 251 to catch the program overview, action items, insights, and overall flow of the full convo.
The Side Hustler’s Coaching Program is an intense 12-week course where 8–10 creatives like yourself master the art of:
Betting big on yourself and your creative pursuits.
Leveraging your day job to fuel your dream job.
Getting out of your own way and navigating life’s curveballs.
I originally connected with this batch of students in the Q1 3-week Boot Camp.
We then went deeper into the rabbit hole with the 12-week Spring Coaching Program.
Here are the students you’ll get a chance to connect with again…

The Program in a Nutshell
As I mentioned last week, this program is hard…but everything you want is on the other side of doing hard things.
Not only do they have to navigate the typical day job and pressures of life…
But within the program, they’re expected to:
Create consistent personal/client work.
Show up to weekly 2-hour Hot Seat Calls on Tuesday evenings.
Weekly 1–hour Community Calls on Friday afternoons.
Complete weekly mandatory exercises.
Complete weekly mandatory check-ins to review the past week.
What you’re hearing in this 2-part series are 2 separate Hot Seat Call recordings…
Where we highlight the importance of:
Slowing down to grow fast.
Practicing prioritization, simplification, and elimination.
Creating accountability and community.
If you want to be a part of a future 12-Week Spring or Fall Program, I highly recommend joining one of the Quarterly 3-Week Boot Camps first to get a more accessible taste of what to expect.
