The 1-Hour A Day Side Hustle Podcast
I’m Sharon, a HR practitioner, working mom, and side business builder.
I used to be terrified of speaking up at work, in meetings, and online to promote myself and my business. Now, I run leadership workshops, speak to hundreds, post on LinkedIn weekly, and run a coaching business in just 1 hour a day.
This podcast is for women like me - ambitious, exhausted, still showing up.
Here, we talk about:
- Fear of being seen and how to move through it
- Building a coaching business on the side of a full-time job and kids
- Speaking up online without worrying about your boss or HR
- Mindset, energy, and systems that make it possible
- Real stories - not perfect influencer life, just honesty
New episodes every week.
