Hi everyone,

I started my side hustle this February and will be expanding a bit in 2024. Since it’s starting phase, I still have my full time job to pay my bills and am still learning how to prioritize things. One thing that I didn’t expect was how lonely entrepreneur life can get. To prioritize my side hustle, I have been saying “no” to a lot of social gatherings, and now I feel like my friends don’t even bother inviting me, and I am shunned. Did anyone else feel this way? How did you cope?

Thanks in advance!

    Man this is so crazy I was just meditating on how isolating this journey is (going) and honestly this just feels like a rite of passage more than anything else. I’ve been entertaining myself with new hobbies, masterclass courses, online games, or just random discord communities. Now it does not replace the real thing however it is a lot better than nothing, also I keep in mind where I intend to end up and look at it as a “give to gain” type of thing. I give up the extent at which I had a social life to achieve a better life across the board

    Wishing you well in your journey, you got this! 🙏
