Alright alright, what's up? Welcome to Sideosal School. This is Chris Gilbo. Thank you so much for tuning in today. Welcome as well to Throwback Thursday, our weekly segment.

We take a look at someone who's story has evolved considerably since we first featured them.

Now last week we heard from a full-time voiceover artist. Other features this year have included a LAN surveyor who changes careers when he discovers an accidental side hustle, painting, signs and murals.

That is now a full-time six-figure business and of course many other episodes as well.

Today in our latest feature we'll hear from Cecilia Ibrahimi and Nash built in a sea.

Now Cecilia does a lot of things. I have a long list of notes here.

I'll try to summarize. She is a musician, a real estate agent. She recently bought a restaurant as well as something called a Salt Cave.

So perhaps another episode we'll come back and talk about the Salt Cave.

What we're going to hear about here today is her side hustle with a business called Music City Lugage Lockers.

And this business offers short-term luggage storage for tourists visiting Nashville.

So what has happened since we first featured her? Lots of stuff. It turns out including a copycat who kind of came along and duplicated her business model for themselves, which cut into her customer base as you will hear.

But you'll also hear how she handled it. So all of this from Cecilia brief comments from me at the end.

Hey everybody, my name is Cecilia Ibrahimi from Nashville, Tennessee.

And the name of my side hustle is Music City Lugage Lockers. And I was featured originally on episode 948 on side hustle school.

I got started with this side hustle about three and a half years ago as a lift driver. And I had a music studio.

And I would wake up early in the morning and go make a hundred bucks so I could take my kids out to the movies on Sunday afternoons.

And the more I worked on the weekends, the more I saw tourists lugging their luggage from their Airbnb to the restaurant to the country music association anywhere they were going the bars.

And I felt a lot of compassion for them. And I was already a lift driver, so I passed a million background checks.

I had a music studio with fingerprint access. So I knew it was safe. And I talked to my customers about storing their luggage for them.

And they thought it was a brilliant idea. And so I dropped them off and then pulled over and I started a dot com and a Facebook page called Music City Lugage Lockers.

And it was born from there. A lot has happened since I've been on this show. And I'm glad to report that Music City Lugage Lockers is still alive and well.

And as we moved forward, I moved from my music studio to a restaurant where I bought a restaurant in Midtown. So I went from the neighborhood of Germantown to the neighborhood of Midtown.
