Imposter syndrome and self-doubt are killing you.
You’re unsure of what step to take next.

How it works
Focus on progress, not perfection
Perfection and imposter syndrome hold most side hustlers back. But not you anymore.
In the Launchpad, we'll push you to take consistent action towards testing and iterating your side hustle. You'll build real confidence along the way.
Bite-sized video lessons and exercises. 8 weeks.
We get it. You're already busy with your 9-5. You don't have time for courses offering "50+ hours of content."
Not us. Each week, you'll get 2-3 short video lessons and exercises to take action. We focus on getting results, not consumption.
Peer learning and community
Feeling like you're on an island by yourself sucks. With our cohort, you won't be alone. You'll join a group of like-minded peers.
Learn together. Exchange feedback. Hold each other accountable. And celebrate each other's wins.
Build real-world skills from positioning to sales
There are countless courses on theory. In contrast, we'll show you exactly what's worked for us and other side hustlers.
No-fluff, just actual examples and case studies. Level up the crucial skills you need to monetize your expertise.
Live Q&As, clinics, and demo day
Got burning questions? Our live Q&A sessions are designed to provide you clarity, so you can get back on track.
Plus: Clinics to get live feedback. Demo day to pitch your side hustle at the conclusion of the program.
Bonus resources. Side Hustle Database.
You'll get access to our treasure trove of resources we're constantly keeping fresh. From our Side Hustle Database (20+ case studies) to exclusive talk recordings.
Think of these as your turbo chargers.
