"I advertise my businesses everywhere, even in trotros. Although I'm a nurse, I don't lose a moment to introduce my businesses to people. These side hustles fetch enough money to cater for my needs without depending solely on my monthly salary." she said.

She further advised her fellow women to venture into entrepreneurship as a side hustle to their regular jobs.

"Through this business, today, I'm able to save GH¢100 a day. If you are a young lady, don't depend on a single stream of income. Be interested in side hustles, she advised.
