    Ivy Insights

    The Side Gig School with Sindy Warren podcast is an absolute gem. Sindy's wealth of wisdom and expertise shines through in each episode, offering valuable insights that extend beyond just starting a business. It feels like you're having a friendly chat with a wise and helpful friend, as Sindy shares practical tips on navigating life and business. I find myself listening to these episodes multiple times and eagerly awaiting each new release.

    One of the best aspects of this podcast is the depth of knowledge that Sindy brings to the table. As a coach and host, she exudes confidence and offers spot-on advice for solopreneurs and small businesses. The interviews she conducts are thoughtful and inspiring, featuring interesting guests who provide nuggets of wisdom applicable to any entrepreneur looking to start or grow their business. It's clear that Sindy knows her stuff and has a knack for breaking down complex concepts into easily actionable steps.

    There really aren't any major downsides to this podcast. However, if there was one minor criticism, it would be that the episodes could sometimes benefit from more diversity in terms of guest selection or topics covered. While the content is consistently valuable, adding different perspectives and industry experts could offer even more insight for listeners.

    In conclusion, The Side Gig School with Sindy Warren podcast is a must-listen for anyone with a side gig or an entrepreneurial spirit. Sindy's no-hustle approach to growing a small business is refreshing, providing simple yet effective guidance that is invaluable for aspiring entrepreneurs. Her ability to break things down into manageable steps is particularly beneficial for those starting out in the business world. Whether you're looking for inspiration, practical advice, or just some words of encouragement on your entrepreneurial journey, this podcast delivers it all with warmth and expertise.

    Heather Zirke started her law firm a little over 18 months ago. She was a lawyer with a full-time gig but, like so many of us, noticed that Covid changed her priorities. While she never thought of herself as an entrepreneur, a seed was planted when she thought about fitting work into her life, and not the other way around, which is how she'd worked and lived for many years. One of the things I love so much about Heather's story is how slowly she made a professional shift. Going slow, and taking one step at a time, is an important skill that so many of us need to exercise as we grow our businesses, consider leaving our 9-5s, or shift our identities around what work actually means to us.
