Don't Just Take Our Word for It!

Real people. Real ideas. Real progress. Our Side Hustle Challenge participants came with ideas, doubts, and dreams of creating income on their own terms. They left with greater clarity, confidence, and a roadmap to turn their skills, passions, and life experiences into a business. Here's what they have to say about their journey.

This was worth every penny. My partner and I have easily spent 4 times the amount on other entrepreneurial courses before...The Side Hustle Challenge not only clarified my messaging and positioning but also showed me how to set the foundation for a business that I actually look forward to building over time. That's what excites me most! And this is the ONLY course that got my messaging and positioning so sharp and clear that people are excited to learn more and collaborate with me as I'm building.

"Alone. Overwhelmed. Directionless. Before becoming a student in Halisi and Ric's Side Hustle Challenge, this was my perceived reality toward starting an online business. Building a traditional brick and mortar business was second nature for me. Building an online business, an online presence was foreign. Halisi and Ric's business building course is a safe space to develop crucial, evergreen business skills that builds stand-out-from-the-rest, successful online businesses. Being among supportive, like-minded cohort entrepreneurs was the icing on top of the comprehensive, hands-on, kick-ass course."

Halisi & Ric We’ve had a side hustle for our entire relationship—and it’s one of the key reasons we avoided major debt and built real financial flexibility. Entrepreneurship isn’t something we discovered later; it’s how we’ve always operated. Halisi earned her MBA from Babson College, one of the top entrepreneurship programs in the U.S., and has since led the turnaround of two struggling nonprofits along with multiple small businesses. Together, we’ve generated nearly $250,000 through our YouTube platform and related income streams, helped hundreds of people move abroad or achieve financial independence, and built a life that allows us to live—and thrive—internationally.
