105: Stacking 6 Side Hustles

After her employer's demise, Christine Schaub replaced her full-time income by stacking six side hustles. Here’s how she does it.

Christine Schaub didn't just start one side hustle. After the unexpected demise of her employer, Christine turned to hustling and has successfully replaced her full-time income by stacking six side hustles. 

When I first sat down with Christine, I expected a quick chat about her six ventures before diving into her book, "The Queen Of The Side Hustle."

But as our conversation unfolded, I found myself with more and more questions about her diverse ventures, and how she manages to stack them, sometimes tackling 4, 5, and even all 6 in a single day!

So in this episode, we stay focused on each of her side hustles and share valuable tips along the way.

Christine's ventures include;

  • teaching piano,
  • pet sitting,
  • gardening,
  • running a YouTube channel,
  • writing, and
  • cooking in clients' homes for dinner parties (which she considers the most profitable niche in catering).

We cover a lot of ground in a short amount of time, offering insights into each that just might inspire your next side hustle.

Do you like what you're hearing? Consider giving it a caffeinated thumbs up. We'd really appreciate it!
