How to Know When You’re Doing Too Much
I’ve learned over the years that my No.1 culprit for anxiety, stress, and burnout is...
DOING TOO MUCH.
For years, I've always felt like I had to do ALL the things ALL the time.
This stemmed from feeling like I got a late start, and/or I wasn’t doing enough compared to everyone I looked up to.
I saw quick growth early on by saying YES to everything...
But then it led to some seriously defeating plateaus.
I want to share today how I’ve been able to constantly get myself “unstuck” over the years.
It’s all about my daily mindset and motto that’s helped me explode my once-hobby and side hustle into a full-time dream job.
The goal of this episode is to show you how to reduce the overwhelm and increase your focus, so you can experience more results.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- You Can Crush a Side Hustle Outside a 9-5
Feeling like the only way to gain clout is to be a successfully self-employed creative?
I’m here to dispel the bullshit and show you examples of people crushing it in the industry AND proudly slaying a 9–5 as well.
That’s what you can expect from today’s guest, Sam Bledsoe, who throws down under the alias of Samborghini.
Sam clocks in at his day job at Universal Music Group knocking out dope tee designs for some of the biggest artists in the music industry like Migos, Pop Smoke, Katy Perry, Billie Eilish, and more.
On the side, his personal work is being slung all over the US in Tillys, Zumiez, and PacSun.
He’s also co-founder of KernClub, a type foundry that consistently kicks out fresh fonts to spice up your design work.
In today’s episode, we share side hustle tips for making shareable work, building routines, managing your time, making merch and fonts, and more.
With this episode, I’m here to prove you can make big waves with your personal work outside a day job.
