Building a side hustle without burning out with Elizabeth Ogabi

This week's guest is Elizabeth Ogabi - a real multi-hyphenate and queen of the side hustle. In 2016 Liz founded For Working Ladies, a digital media platform that equips women with the tools and knowledge needed to start a successful business. The venture established Liz as one of the most influential people in the UK’s business scene and in 2019 she was named one of the UK Ambassadors of Women’s Entrepreneurship Day.

Always one to have multiple projects succeeding at one time, Liz recently co-founded Leicour.com - a membership network focused on accelerating women within organisations into leadership roles. She is also the host of the How I Made It Happen podcast and recently published her first book - Side Hustle in Progress: A Practical Guide to Kickstarting Your Business. Whether it's through pursuing an entrepreneurial dream or breaking through the glass ceiling, her ultimate goal is focused on the advancement and economic empowerment of women.

In this episode we discuss:

• Juggling full-time work with your side hustle
• How to know when you know you’re ready to take the leap
• Tips on how to surround yourself with the right support network
• How to avoid burnout when pursuing your dreams
• The power of your personal brand and how Liz managed to add ‘author’ to her ever-growing list of achievements
