This colourful book offers many suggestions as to how you can develop your skills into a viable and successful business. It’s full of motivation, well chosen quotes, and activities to help you start your entrepreneurial journey. It tackles challenges from multiple angles and touches on human psychology, marketing, branding, and bringing ideas and dreams from paper to life. If you want to start but don’t know where to start, I strongly recommend this book. It’s a survival guide in the busy and competitive world out there. I personally have found a lot of value in this book, and plan on re-reading it and spending more time going through the activities. One thing I wish this book had is a contents page.

Pure brilliance. This book is relatable, actionable and full of savvy advice that got me off my ass and got me going. I found fresh new ideas and had lightbulb moments that steered in me in the right direction, and fast. Kay cuts through the overwhelm and gives you the information you need, step by step. For anyone who wants to kickstart their dreams and turn them into reality. LOVED IT.

This book was actually really cool. It includes goals, activities, and writing reflections to help you. The book is true to it's introduction: if you follow the guide, you will have a plan for a side hustle (or a main hustle!) by the time you complete it.

Not sure what my business would look like without this book!
Kay is full of insights into not only what it takes to start your own business but how to get into the right headspace to make it work and be successful. I'm so thankful for this book and all the valuable lessons I learnt along the way. I already have it on my Christmas list for friends and family and I can't wait to see more of Kay's work on the shelves.

Run off the mill advice, but it is a complete overview and leaves no stone unturned.

I expected a book about starting a side hustle would be more focused on creating a supplementary income and have inspiration on how to do that. But this is just a generic book about starting your own business. I cut my losses and stopped reading after halfway.

Short & to the point. Gave me the motivation I needed to get through my mid year motivation slump.

Reading this book is like finding out about the skeleton of your side hustle or business plan. For details, you need to read some other books targeting specific aspect of the business.
