EPISODE 190| 23:46 minutes

If you’re working in a job and growing a service-based side business, your life is probably already very full. Work, family, ageing parents, life admin, hormones!… and somewhere in there, your business dreams.

It’s completely understandable that “I just need more time for my business” is such a familiar thought.

In this episode of The Transit Lounge podcast, host Shandra Moran shares a practical, honest conversation about what it looks like to grow your side business when you don’t have endless hours.

She talks about her own experience of travelling for work, ending the day exhausted, and still telling herself she “should be doing more” – and the real shift that happened when she stopped waiting for life to quieten down and started working with the time and energy she actually had.

Rather than giving you a rigid schedule or a long to-do list, Shandra walks you through three simple shifts to help you:
  • Stop relying on “when things settle down” as your business plan
  • Decide what “enough” looks like for your business right now
  • Protect both your business time and genuine rest, so you’re not running on crumbs

You’ll get some simple reflection questions and a few practical ideas you can start using straight away to reclaim pockets of time for your side business – without sacrificing your wellbeing.
