| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome. Welcome to Side Usual School. Welcome to Thruback Thursday. This is a weekly segment |
| 0:16.0 | where we take a look at someone who's story has evolved since we first featured them. Now there |
| 0:20.0 | have been all kinds of industries, all kinds of businesses, side hustles, all kinds of little |
| 0:24.0 | projects over the years that have taken shape or have gone from maybe earning a small amount of |
| 0:29.5 | money to earning a bigger amount of money or sometimes selling the business, just all kinds of |
| 0:33.8 | evolutions dealing with challenges in such a long the way as well. Let's see, last week we heard from |

| 1:35.7 | Five years ago my fascination with minimalism and sustainable living led me to discover the tiny |
| 1:41.2 | home movement. As an architect and interior designer I was captivated by the challenge of creating |
| 1:47.0 | functional living spaces with a limited footprint. I realized there was a demand for bespoke tiny |
| 1:53.2 | home designs that went beyond the standard blueprints available online. And so my side hustle is a |
