Purposeful side hustle meet-up

Everyone wants their life to have meaning. To feel valued and to feel like there's a purpose to what they do. While many people get purpose and meaning from jobs (even if they don't realise it) there's a growing segment of our society that are turning to purposeful side-hustles to fulfil something that's missing from their lives.

Purposeful side hustles, side gigs, part-time volunteering, pro-bono work - call it what you will, it's a growing part of our society and helps keep many charities and not-for-profits running. A purposeful side hustle can be a great way for you to try new things which you care deeply about, or give you a boost of happiness and satisfaction, without leaving the safety of your full-time job.

Purposeful-side hustles can stay part time, turn into full-time jobs, or open up new opportunities that you hadn't ever considered.

Come along to our evening event (co-hosted by Ikabo) where (as well as some speed networking) you'll hear our expert panel discuss how to choose a successful side-hustle, get it up and running and make it a success.

Full Time Lives’ Co-Founder Natalie Yan-Chatonsky will be facilitating the panel discussion with business, social and community leaders:
