Pricing, Podcasting, Permission to Quit, and More: 20 Questions with Nick

I’ve got another 20 Questions episode for you today, diving into the ol’ listener mailbag.

As is customary on these episodes, I’ve pulled out questions from the Side Hustle Nation community from over the last few months and will attempt to answer those for your benefit and listening pleasure.

This is the 14th installment of this series so feel free to check out the older ones:

A common piece of advice you’ll hear is to take audience questions and turn them into content, so here’s a meta example of that in action.

We’re talking pricing, podcasting, pre-aged domains, privacy, personal growth, permission to go full time, and lots more.

Enjoy!
