Let’s talk about adulting— actual adulting. Not just paying bills or keeping a houseplant alive, but the kind that involves emotional maturity, healthy boundaries, and conscious self-leadership. Because let’s be honest, most of us weren’t taught how to be fully functioning adults… and it shows. Joining us is Michelle Chalfant , licensed therapist turned holistic life coach, creator of The Adult Chair® model, and author of the new book The Adult Chair: Get Unstuck, Claim Your Power, and Transform Your Life . With millions reached through her podcast, coaching programs, and retreats, she’s here to walk us through the five pillars of being a healthy, grounded adult. Here’s the truth: being an adult isn’t about checking boxes or pretending you’re fine. It’s about owning your truth. Feeling your feelings. Practicing compassion without letting yourself off the hook. It’s about setting firm boundaries—with no need for justification—and recognizing that your triggers are not flaws, they’re clues. None of us were handed a guidebook for how to grow up emotionally. We inherited patterns from people who were figuring it out as they went. But what Michelle shares today is empowering: it’s never too late to unlearn what no longer serves you and become the adult you were meant to be. Whether you’re starting this work or knee-deep in your personal development era, this episode will meet you where you are—and help you move forward with clarity, self-trust, and strength.

$500/day doing work you love? Let’s talk about it. In today's topic, we'll look at the delicious business of being a personal chef, with someone who’s been doing it for 25 years and turned her skill into a six-figure solopreneur business. Jessica Leibovich, from ChefJessica.com , didn’t start off aiming for this. She was working in catering, young, overworked, and — like a lot of us at some point — burnt out . But one suggestion changed her life: "Have you ever thought about being a personal chef?" she was asked. So not only was she good at it, but her first client paid her more in a day than she used to make in a week. And she's been doing it ever since and sharing it with her students through her Prosperous Personal Chef’s Success Suite .

Anthony and Jhanilka Hartzog erased $114k of debt in 23 months. The side hustling couple were making good money at their day jobs, but realized there's only so much you can cut from your budget. That’s when they turned to the income side of the equation and started a ton of different side hustles. They picked up second jobs at their gym, rented out their car on Turo , dogsitted , and -- inspired by my episode with Chris Schwab , they started a residential cleaning business called Maids2Match.com . Today, that business is doing $20-25k in sales a month, with other people doing the cleaning. Anthony and Jhanilka are fully in business-owner mode, dedicating just a few hours a week to it.

With Mother's Day coming up, I wanted to share some of the best advice and lessons I got from mom growing up. Most of the time, this was pretty literal advice, but I found a lot of it has a broader application to entrepreneurship. Mom has always been probably my biggest advocate and supporter. For background, she essentially had a couple different careers, first in nursing and then as a library assistant. (At the library, she actually helped me get one of my first jobs in high school.) Lots of wisdom I hope to be able to pass along to our little ones! And if you like this format, be sure to check out the companion list/episode on dad's advice !

669: The Piggyback Principle: The “Lazy” Way to Build a Successful Side Hustle 49:39

8 weeks ago49:39

49:39

The Piggyback Principle is a business idea framework that looks at popular market trends or “ecosystems” and seeks ways to support or supplement those trends. It’s a faster way to start a business because you can capitalize on what’s already hot with an additional or complementary product or service. Basically, your side hustle can ride piggyback on a larger business or trend. You could even say that my now-retired shoe-business was a piggyback business on the e-commerce trend and the comparison shopping trend. It’s a concept I first wrote about 10 years ago, but at that time, I took a pretty narrow view by just talking about marketplace trends. At that time, it was things like the rise of WordPress, or the popularity of the Paleo diet. Now, I’ve broken this principle into three stages: Idea generation Startup creation Marketing/growth And to make this practical, I’m bringing in real-world examples from fellow entrepreneurs who’ve used this approach to build real businesses. Here are the new and updated trends for the Piggyback Principle in 2025. Full Show Notes: The Piggyback Principle: The “Lazy” Way to Build a Successful Side Hustle New to the Show?
