Juggling Work and a Side Hustle: Is It Worth It in the UK?

J

Ugh! Is anyone else finding this first day back after the holidays a REAL struggle? 😩 My brain is still in hibernation mode and my to-do list looks daunting! It’s so easy to get comfortable in the holiday bubble. But the reality is that many of us in the UK are thinking about how to earn a bit of extra income right now, and the end of the month will be here before we know it. And that has had me thinking, is juggling work and a side hustle worth it in the UK’s current climate?

But let’s be honest: The internet is full of “easy” side hustle promises that sound too good to be true… because they often are. The truth is, that building anything worthwhile takes effort, time, and dedication. Plus, you need strategies that are proven to be working right now. It might not necessarily be a full-time job, but it is work and new skills need to be learned to advance.

But here’s the thing: nothing changes if nothing changes. We can keep scrolling past those opportunities, feeling sceptical and stuck, or we can decide to take that first step. Even a small one. And this is where my answer to the big question comes in – yes, juggling work and a side hustle is worth it, especially if you’re craving a lifestyle transition.

See, for me, it’s not just about the extra money, though that’s definitely a perk. It’s about the fulfilment that comes from building something which aligns with my passions and interests. It’s about the freedom to potentially escape the 9-5 grind one day, to have more control over my time and how I spend it.

So, let’s make this a Manifest Monday! What’s ONE action you can take TODAY towards building the financial freedom you deserve? Maybe it’s researching a skill you could monetise, or finally signing up for that course you’ve been eyeing up.

Let’s ditch the struggle and choose to build something better in 2025. It won’t be easy, but if you’re looking for a life with more purpose and freedom, that side hustle journey might just be the most rewarding thing you do this year. Together, we can do it!
