Meet Jacqueline Fisch, copywriter, editor, author and fellow Chicagoan! 

Jacq is a member of the Courage and Clarity community and a listener of the show, and it feels like a special treat to dive deep with a member of our tribe.

In this episode, you’ll discover the crazy twist that prompted her to go full steam ahead with her writing business despite being a wife, mother to 2 kids, and full-time employee for 13 years.

Then, in the Clarity half, she’s sharing 5 concrete steps to growing a hustle — WITHOUT hating yourself and making your family crazy in the process.

Then in Clarity, we’re diving into:

• Exactly how to set up boundaries
• What to do with the extra money you make from your new side hustle 
• The importance of talking about your big dream and telling lots of people
• How to find gratitude, even when it feels crazy
