Kim Palmer stopped by The Side Hustle Show this week to talk about her various side hustles and how you can get started. As the author of The Economy of You: Discover Your Inner Entrepreneur and Recession-Proof Your Life, Kim has connected with dozens of part-time entrepreneurs and is one of the biggest advocates for having a "side gig" as part of your financial backup plan.
