My bf and I both work full time, but we’ve been wanting to start something on the side to make extra income instead of just relying on our main jobs (we did amazon kdp and having a hard time with sales)

The thing is, we’re pretty different. He’s more into online/tech-related stuff, while I’m more hands-on and creative. We’re both busy, but we’re willing to put in effort if it’s something actually worth building over time

Curious what people are doing right now that’s realistically profitable or growing. Could be online, service-based, creative, local, anything honestly.

Would love to hear ideas, experiences, or things you’ve seen work lately !

To those working in creative esp in Canada, how do you balance your full time // personal projects, freelance, side gigs or even a part time job?

Ive been thinking about getting a second source of income because everything is getting so expensive and I want to earn more without completely burning myself out. At the same time, creative jobs can already be mentally draining, long hours, etc so curious how other people manage it

Do you still have time and energy for your own work after your 9 to 5? Does having a side job affect your performance at your main job or your creativity overall?

Would really appreciate hearing how you structure your schedule, what kind of side work you do, and any advice or tips that helped you make it sustainable
