Millionaire University Want to Make Money as an Introvert? High-Income Side Hustles for "Anti-Influencers" | Megan Spencer
#713 What if you could make multiple 5-figures from “introvert side hustles” without ever becoming an influencer? In this episode, host Kirsten Tyrrel sits down with Megan Spencer (“Meg the Creator”), a small-town, introverted mom who helps people build high-income side hustles through UGC, Amazon onsite commissions, TikTok Shop, and freelancing — no followers required. Megan shares how she quit her government job on maternity leave, burned out as a social media manager, then rebuilt her income by focusing on authenticity and income over aesthetics. She breaks down exactly how beginner-friendly UGC platforms work, why brands are shifting budgets away from traditional influencers, how creators can land their first paid deals and free products, and why niching down can actually hurt you at first. If you’ve ever felt “too introverted,” “too normal,” or “too late” for the creator economy, this conversation will show you practical, low-barrier ways to start making real money online!
What we discuss with Megan:
+ Balancing motherhood, business, and side hustles
