149: Nonprofit Side Hustle: Give Back and Get Paid Well

Most people think making money and making a difference are two separate paths—but what if your side hustle could do both?

We cover: How Andrew launched Mealshare for less than $100 The difference between nonprofits, charities, and for-profits—and how to choose the right model How a side hustle can scale into a full-time mission with real income His newest venture, No Story Lost, which helps families preserve loved ones’ life stories What it was like to pitch on Dragons’ Den (Canada’s version of Shark Tank) So if you’ve ever wondered whether you can build something that more than pays the bills and does good in the world, tune in for some how-to answers. Do you like what you're hearing? Consider giving it a caffeinated thumbs up. We'd really appreciate it! Need a little (and sometimes big) push to start and stay focused to grow your side hustle?
