🧰 How I’m Rebuilding Life as a Mom Side Hustle”
🌪️ From Burnout to a New Beginning
Not long ago, I was drowning in to-dos — deadlines, housework, parenting, and the endless noise of “what’s next.” My Quantity Surveyor career had trained me to manage costs, but it never taught me how to manage the cost of burnout.
One night, lying awake at 2 a.m., I realized something had to give. I didn’t just need a break — I needed a rebuild.
And that’s when my side hustle journey began.
🌱 How I’m Rebuilding Life as a Mom Side Hustle
For me, a side hustle wasn’t just about making money. It was about reclaiming my voice, time, and peace of mind.
Here’s what I started doing step by step:
- ✍️ Writing — journaling my messy thoughts, then turning them into blog posts that connect with other moms.
- 🎶 Creating — launching my music channel (Little Phoenix Sounds), sharing lullabies inspired by quiet moments with my kids.
- 💻 Building digital tools — from free guides to starter kits that help other moms design calm, meaningful side hustles.
- 🤝 Affiliate sharing — recommending tools and products I actually use (like Systeme.io, wellness supplements, and learning programs).
None of this was polished or perfect. But it was mine, and that gave me the momentum to keep going.
đź’ˇ Lessons That Keep Me Grounded
- Consistency beats perfection. Showing up daily matters more than flawless execution.
- Small steps stack up. One blog post today = more readers tomorrow.
- Community matters. Even as an “independent mom,” I’ve learned I don’t have to do this alone.
🔥 Why I Won’t Quit
👩‍👧 My kids — because they deserve to see what courage looks like.
🕒 Time freedom — because I no longer want to trade all my hours for someone else’s paycheck.
❤️ Purpose — because if my story helps one mom believe in herself, it’s worth it.
