this family life episode 74: on coming up with an idea

on coming up with an idea

For this season of the this family life podcast I am going to talk more about “mum” as opposed “family”and some things she can do to make her life feel like it has more purpose, is more productive and more fulfilling. It is always hard to separate mum out from family, but in these episodes we will be looking at ways you can organise yourself and sometimes your family to achieve your own personal, professional or physical goals.


After talking last week about what you can do once you have your idea, I had many listeners get in touch to tell me that they want to do something different but don’t know what! They were after tips for how to come up with an idea for a side hustle or a business. So in this week’s episode I share five activities you can do to help you come up with an idea:

  1. Determine when you get into flow
  2. Write down your core competencies
  3. Write down 10 ideas a day for 10 days with a time limit of 5 minutes
  4. Immerse yourself in a topic
  5. Set a deadline to start

If you want to come up with an idea for a side hustle or business, grab a notebook and pencil and have a listen!
