In this episode, Pete speaks to Hazel Ruth Thomas who has a keen passion for creating passive income streams and believes that our work should fit in and around our lives not the other way round. Hazel recently created the concept ‘The Passive Income Mum’ as she is a mum of 3 and wants to get out there and help others to create passive income streams and support them in doing so.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Passive income is all about doing a job once and getting paid repeatedly for doing it. Some describe it as a pension style income and is about having money coming in whether you are at work or not.
• There are many approaches to creating and sustaining a passive income so it can be a bit of a mind field to anyone who is considering it. This is one of the reasons Hazel has created her concept The Passive Income Mum.
• Hazel is a photographer and she built a photography business. Although it did really well and she loved what she was doing she recognised that she had actually just built herself a job and she didn’t earn money unless she was there ‘creating’ and working. There was no way to outsource what she was doing and she wanted more balance in her life so she made the decision to create passive income streams.
• Financial freedom is Hazel’s end goal. What this means is she wants more money coming in than she needs to think about, to have everything covered and create a lifestyle where she has multiple choices.
• Hazel owns a network marketing business which has been perfect for her. She also runs a property company alongside some friends including rent to rents and air bnb as well as being involved in stocks and shares. None of these things are full time but they all work alongside another to give her a passive income that works for her lifestyle.
• You are the sum of the 5 people you spend the most time with. Spend time with those that are where you want to be and if you don’t like the level you are at now then look at the people you are spending time with.
• The school system is great at giving children the basics but Hazel teaches her children more than this. She wants them to understand how to thrive in life and give them the practical and emotional tools to deal with everything life will throw at them.
• Your relationship with money and how you decide to use it dramatically affects your lifestyle. You can’t get through life without spending money but think, what you are spending your money on, is it something you need or something that will give you a return or is it just instant gratification?
