I’ve always loved the flexibility of freelancing, but it wasn’t until I started a side gig writing marketing copy that I realized how much my day job had prepared me for it. I work in digital marketing, so crafting ads and social media posts came naturally it was almost like getting paid twice for skills I use every day.
Has anyone else stumbled into a side hustle that unexpectedly matched their full-time work? I’m curious to hear what skills from your job ended up being useful in ways you didn’t expect. Maybe there’s something I haven’t even considered yet!
