5 Weird (& Wonderful) Things I’ve Done For Money
Now I won’t go so far as to say I’d do anything for money but my limit is quiet high. One of my friends recently told me that when her mum was asking what I was up to now, she replied with “erm I’m not actually 100% sure, but if it makes money, Jess is doing it”. Pretty accurate.

In 2024, I am embarking on a 10k Side Hustle Challenge. Ten grand. Even writing that down seems INSANE! But I’m very optimistic that I will smash this goal!
