From Hobby to Empire: Breaking Free From Your 9 to 5
Tired of the endless layoffs and job cuts? Want to shield yourself from that mess and kiss your 9 to 5 goodbye? Let me show you how to turn your passion project into a money-making powerhouse with dePepi. What started as my tiny hobby, and became a successful side hustle, has now exploded into a happy business — and guess what? You can do it too!
Let’s get real: transforming a hobby into a successful side hustle isn’t some overnight fairy tale. Sure, some online mentors might promise instant success with AI or some secret formula, but the reality is a bit different. For me it was all about the happy grind — and what a wild ride it’s been!
From Humble Hobby to Successful Side Hustle
Rewind to the days when T-Rexes roamed the Earth. Just kidding, let’s not go that far. Let’s hop back to the 2000s in Tokyo, where my adventure began. I was writing emails to friends about my life in Japan like a printing press in the 90s. Then, I had a lightbulb moment: why not blog about it? So, I did — in English, so all my global amigos could tune in.
Fast forward a few years, and my little blog on Blogspot evolved into a WordPress wonder, with a twist — it started making money! Who would’ve thought?
No Mistakes, Just Learning!
Now, let’s be clear: I didn’t have a roadmap. I stumbled, tripped, and face-planted my way to creating this thriving platform full of courses, musings, and golden nuggets on how to hit the jackpot with your hobbies.
You might not be into writing books, designing card games, or conjuring up courses like me. Maybe you’re the crochet master, a wizard with wool. Well, why not turn those patterns into cash? Write about it, share it, sell it! Let me share this with you and skip all my headaches!
Here’s the deal: start with what sets your heart on fire and build a side hustle that doesn’t feel like a hustle. When you’re juggling a 9 to 5, going big from the get-go is like trying to sprint in quicksand. But small, steady steps? That’s where the magic happens.
You Can Do This Too!
And now, the golden ticket: learn from my rollercoaster of triumphs and face-palms. Join the FAE membership with the code VIPSUBSCRIBER and snag a jaw-dropping 50% off for an entire year of awesomeness. Just £45 for a year packed with courses (and more on the horizon) is a total steal.
