Hi lovely listeners,

This week, I’m joined by the amazing Anna Maskell from Animated Physio to explore side hustles, smart business growth, and knowing when to say “yes” (or “not yet”).

Anna, a physio and Pilates instructor, has transformed her clinic and built a thriving side hustle designing high-quality Pilates mats. From running her clinic solo to overcoming the challenges of product development, Anna’s journey is truly inspiring, and she’s here to share it all.

If you’ve wondered when to start a side hustle or how to balance big ideas with running a business, this episode is for you.

🎯 IN THIS EPISODE, YOU’LL DISCOVER:

  • How Anna turned a problem in her clinic into a sellable product that’s now used in studios across the UK.
  • The importance of timing and knowing when to focus on your core business before diversifying.
  • Why first impressions and high-quality equipment can elevate your client experience and reputation
  • How Anna’s journey shows the power of persistence, strategy, and staying true to your vision.
  • Practical tips for clinic owners who want to create an additional revenue stream without burning out.

⭐ KEY TAKEAWAYS FROM ANNA:
1️⃣ First Impressions Matter: Your equipment and environment speak volumes about your brand. Investing in quality shows your clients you care and positions you as a premium service.
2️⃣ Remove Barriers to Movement: Make it easy and enjoyable for clients to engage with your services by creating an exceptional experience.
3️⃣ Timing is Everything: You can’t do it all at once. Focus on building a strong foundation in your core business before diversifying into new ventures.
