Hi everyone, thanks so much for listening. I just wanted to note today that we recorded this in the past two episodes a few weeks ago actually in May when Emma came for a visit.

That said, it feels strange and wrong that we haven't had a chance to very clearly say the words,

Black Lives Matter.

For the rest of June, we're donating 100% of proceeds from our new print shop to color of change.org.

You can download digital prints and print them at home

you can find the new shop at

printshop dot a beautiful mess dot com

will also include links to this in the show notes.

Okay, and now we're going to go back to our recording, which we did in May,

and this is episode 40. Love you all. You're listening to the beautiful mess podcast. Today's episode is dedicated to

side businesses. This is just one thing that we've heard from

listeners and friends over the years asking how to come up with side business

ideas, what makes a good side business, and so we're going to share our past

experiences in perspective.

So first we wanted to start off by sharing our first side

biz, which they're both embarrassing,

but for different reasons.

So you go first, Emma.

I think yours deserves to go first so mine I was probably

17 or 18 years old so before you judge me too harshly yeah this is actually really

cute I feel like you had a light bulb moment and then you went for it.

Yeah, no I'm kind of proud of it. I think I was learning about business like on my own
