Thanks for sharing Femke! This is something I'm trying to build towards as a new Product Designer. Making additional income on top of my full-time income is GOALS ✨

Thank you so much for being so transparent and sharing your journey Femke! I've learned a TON from you over the years. I'm wondering how you thought about building your income strategy (I know you mentioned at the end of your video that you're thinking about doing this moving forward), but what are your thoughts for someone who just wants to start out. What kind of free content did you start with or how did you know what needs were most needed by your audience? Thank you! Your videos are the reason why/how I broke into design!

Hi Lauren! I did a lot of stuff for free initially to see what piqued interest, gathered feedback and learned what folks found valuable. I think it's good to start with something low lift just to test the waters before moving into bigger ticket items!

It really is very very hard to start working as a product designer since there’re way way too many who want to work in this business. This is the fact that nobody told me before I put too much money and energy into it.

You are such a rockstar, Femke! Thank you so much for sharing and Kudos to you! As a side project, I'm working on how/what to do for my gluten-free for families food blog and this has been immensely helpful. Have you considered running a workshop for folks on how to "get started as a content creator" where you go into a bit more granular detail?

Wow, this was amazing. It makes me feel so inspired to do more. Thanks for sharing and being so transparent about it. You surely got a lot of freelance work done. It would be great if you could create a video about how do you find clients as a freelancer, how do you send your quotations and how you make sure that you get paid on time. Like an end-to-end freelancer journey of a full-time job person.

Thank you! However, I don't do traditional design freelance work. The client work I do is more in a brand sponsorship capacity rather than design work.

Hi Femke. Was this side hustle in addition to having your FT gig as a product designer? I'm wondering if someone can actually have two FT design related jobs.

Majority of the side hustles are passive income. It's a lot of work up front, but once established, passive income won't need as much maintenance as a full-time job and KZitem. Plus I'm sure she has some help like an assistant or an editor -- or both.
