You're listening to Side Hustle Pro, the podcast that teaches you to build and grow your

Side Hustle from Passion Project to Profitable Business.

And I'm your host, Nakela Matthew Zakome. So let's get started.

Hey guys, welcome back to the show. It's Nakela here with another episode of Sidehous of Pro, specifically a solo episode.

Today I'm going to do my first ever entrepreneur diaries check-in where I just share candidly what's been going on with me how my first

month of entrepreneurship has gone so far and yeah just let you guys know what

I've been up to so let's's get into it. So there are a couple of things that I'm going to touch on. Number one is my first

premium launch, which I've been working on. Also some of the anxiety episodes that I've experienced, and also having to truly be an adult and make the right choices, specifically when it comes to money.

Finally, I'll talk about some small pivots

that I've made even just in the few short months

since I've left my job.

And then finally, I'll just get into you know what's on tap for the rest of

Q2 so here we go where do I start you know what I think I'll start where I left off I'll start

with the whole anxiety episodes thing. So I'm really, I don't even know if I can call it anxiety because it's not like I'm crippled. I don't really know what, if it's medical anxiety, but anxiety have been experiencing some episodes where I just feel a little bit like I'm so

scared of what I have to do and it will be so small it's uh, like I'm hyperventilating because I have to send an email and it kind of scares me because I know once I send the email, you know, and that person is on board that sponsor whatever, what have you, then I have like 10 times more work to do and I really have to prove myself.

And it's one of those things where you know you have it inside of you, you know you can do it, but at the same time it's new

territory and it's intimidating and it's the, you know, quintessential entrepreneur dilemma that we face but it's real it's real so it's

something that Nicole Walter has mentioned in her episode as well as like you know

and even Tanya Rappley in the most recent episode where you are so high for the first couple of days after you quit and you know you're so ready and I'm still so ready for everything on my like I cannot wait, but at the same time like you think you're going to be

popping champagne and celebrating but you're actually like slowly experiencing panic like it just starts to creep up on you out of

nowhere that's like oh like I really have to do this I said I'm gonna do this oh my

gosh like this is I this is it like I am responsible for me bringing in money every month like there is no you
