Show Notes
In this solo episode, I’m sharing the exact 12 week sprint system that completely changed how I set and complete my goals.
Instead of giving myself an entire year to “figure it out,” I learned that shrinking the timeline created clarity, urgency, and momentum. I walk you through how I choose my goals, break them down into manageable weekly actions, and build in a recalculation rule that allows for real life instead of an idealized version of it. If you have ever started the year motivated only to feel your goals quietly drift away by February, this episode gives you a simple and realistic framework you can start using right now.
In This Episode, I Share: Why yearly goal setting gives side hustlers too much room to procrastinate and how 12 week sprints create clarity and momentum How I choose just three goals per sprint with one clear focus per month The simple way I break monthly goals into realistic weekly tasks that actually get done Why daily five minute reviews and one weekly self accountability day keep my goals from drifting The recalculation rule that helps me keep going when life gets messy without guilt or quitting
Highlights Include 00:00 Why annual goals do not work for busy side hustlers 02:50 How 12 week sprints eliminate procrastination 05:55 The rule of only three goals with one focus per month 10:20 Why writing my goals down is non negotiable 12:40 How I break goals into simple weekly tasks 14:45 The recalculation rule that keeps me moving forward 17:00 Choosing a weekly self accountability day 21:00 Your 12 week sprint challenge

In this solo episode, I break down why so many people are starting shows right now, drawing on 10 years of running Side Hustle Pro, which I launched in 2016 and have grown past 10 million downloads.
I kept putting off this solo episode because I did not want to get camera-ready. So I took the camera out of the picture. This audio-only life update is about the changes that helped me feel like myself again, a year after sharing that I was burned out.
One of the biggest misconceptions I see when it comes to making money is the belief that you need to start from scratch. A new certification, a brand new idea, or a completely different skill set. But the truth is, most of us already have everything we need. The real problem is not a lack of knowledge, it is not knowing how to package and position what we already know.
This week in the guest chair, Symone’ Austin shares her powerful journey from being laid off to building a thriving YouTube platform.
In this episode, I sat down with Jannese Torres, host of the Yo Quiero Dinero podcast, to talk about how she went from a corporate career in engineering, pharmaceuticals, and consumer manufacturing to building a $500K-a-year media business. Jannese shares how getting laid off pushed her to take entrepreneurship seriously and how her food blog, Delish D'Lites, became her first profitable side hustle. We talk about how she used her blog income to pay off her student loans, why she launched Yo Quiero Dinero in 2019 to create the personal finance show she wanted to hear as a Latina, and how the podcast became the engine behind her book, speaking engagements, brand partnerships, and other income streams.
