How I’m balancing a full-time job, two kids, and a growing side hustle (while avoiding the dad bod)
Hi everyone!
This page is about helping each other, sharing issues and sharing advices on how to overcome problems.
I’ve been working full-time in finance, raising two kids under five, and slowly building a side hustle on evenings and weekends (which has just started and is at £0). It’s been far from easy — juggling family time, gym sessions, work, and still trying to stay sane... Lack of sleep is criminal.
Over time, I created a system that’s actually working:
  • I wake up at 5 am, prepare milk for my wife, then off to gym by 5:30am
  • 6-8 gym session to organise my thoughts (which is how I got here)
  • 8-9 look for ways on how to get out of this swamp!
  • 9-6 full-time job
  • Weekly financial goals
  • 4-day workout split
  • And most importantly… protecting family time
I want this community to be for dads, professionals, side hustlers — where we share what’s working and help each other stay accountable (without all the hustle culture noise).
In the next post I would like to share what made me do it all, as it might be of interest to you.
What systems or routines are working for you right now? Let’s swap notes
