What did that look like? And then, you know, over time or over as you've gotten older, has that connection with what you can't define God, God, whatever it is, spirit, has that changed at all or evolved?

So what did it look like? My, I went to church every week for growing up all my life.

The, The teachings were amazing.

I grew up with two great parents.

They were in the church as well.

Dad was, sometimes he was one of the leadership in the church sometimes.

Things that stick out to me.

I did a little bit, but I also like to be authentically surprised.

I did a little bit, but I also like to be authentically surprised.

So I lost my lower left leg in 2024.

March 25th, 2024, my lower left leg was amputated.

Here is my leg.

It has the side hustle samurai on it.

So it's tax deductible.

Okay.

Oh, my gosh.

But yeah, go ahead.

Well, yeah.

Employment is gonna make the big guys rich.

It's not gonna really help you.

They, they can get rid of you whenever they want.

Once again, I'm not anti-rich either.

I'm just saying you need to think differently, and you need to figure out how to do these things.

It's because you programmed your mind all of this time to look for these opportunities, and now you see it's, it- it's like second nature to you now.

Mm-hmm.

And I have them make these lists.

And so I was working with Stephanie.

She's a bus driver, a school bus driver, and she came to me with an idea, and I said, "Okay, just humor me and go through my process." And so I had her make these lists.

And I said, "Okay, go and continue to grow these lists for this week, and then we'll meet next week." About two days into it, she called me, "I'm so mad at you." And I'm like, "For what?"

Um, I do know we're coming to the end of the time that we have together today, so I wanted to ask, like, do you have an offer that you would like to extend to our listeners? And if they want more information from you, how can they contact you?

So my, my website is thesidehustlesamurai.com. A lot of my information is there.

I have an offer right now.

What is your definition of a side hustle?

So my whole life has been, is full of side hustles.

Some of them turned into big, great side hustles where it takes a little bit of time and it, the, the outcome is really well.

And, and people would define that as a business or some of them, some of them are just little tiny time and little tiny income, but it still helps with whenever things go wrong.

And so a side hustle is, for me, is something that I'm already doing that is right in front of me that I could turn into a stream of income.

Sure.

But after the shock and awe was over, I said, "Okay, I don't like this, but it's going to happen.

How can I monetize it?" And six months post-op, I was in a, an appointment with my prosthetist.
