As we close out 2025, reflection matters just as much as goal-setting. In this solo episode, Rob looks back on five of the most impactful conversations from Surviving the Side Hustle so far — not tactical how-tos, but core truths about health, identity, effort, and alignment.
Guest: Holly Porter
Holly shared her near-death experience and the health collapse that forced her to stop everything. What stood out most wasn’t just the trauma — it was the clarity that followed.
For years, she succeeded on paper while ignoring the signals her body was sending… until they couldn’t be ignored anymore.
Reflection: Where have you been ignoring physical, mental, or emotional warning signs because slowing down feels uncomfortable?

Those beliefs don’t show up immediately — they reveal themselves through repeated patterns.
Reflection: What belief about yourself quietly guided your biggest decision this year? Was it empowering or limiting?
