Lemonada.

In this week's first $1,000 story, discover how a Seattle hairstylist unofficially sets up shop near comic

conventions, charging cosplayers for last- minute wig rescues and hair touchups.

This is a fun one. We're going to emphasize the unofficial nature of it. She does it kind of

renegade style without asking for permission. She just goes for it. And the whole point is to see

how she made her first thousand dollars. That's what we do with this whole segment. How does a

sidestler get an idea, take action on it, make a thousand dollars, and then often much more.

Often people in the segment go on to make $10,000, $100,000, sometimes well beyond that.

But the whole point is to see what is the origin. And how can you, our listener, also go from

idea to income? That is, in fact, the goal of

side hustle school to give you lots of ideas, to give you a blueprint, to give you case studies,

answer questions and such, but basically kind of steer you along this path of transformation.

Because once you can begin to start these kinds of projects, then so much as possible from there.

You can scale them, you can grow them, you can learn to start different projects, you can get out of debt, then so much as possible from there. You can scale them,

you can grow them, you can learn to start different projects, you can get out of debt,

you can stop being dependent on a day job, even if you love your day job and you want to stay there.

Again, all things are possible, but you need to learn these skills. So that's what we do. We teach

through storytelling. And with that in mind, and without further ado, today's feature comes from

Sage in Seattle, Washington. Let's hear this cool story from her. I'll be back at the end with a few

words of wrap up.

I'm Sage, a hairstylist in Seattle who never intended to make money off cosplayers, at least not at first.

It all started when my friend, a die-hard anime fan, asked for help styling her wig for a local comic convention.
