My biggest aim with my side projects is to generate income and make it my full-time work, but I always learn a lot, and it helps me grow as a Technical Product Manager.
Although it helps, it's a tough schedule to keep up with that, because I tend to focus on the project and lose track of my day job work.
Would be fun to chat on a Zoom some day. I'm an ex-TPM as well. Replacing f/t income with side gigs is something I have spent (literally) decades decoding. Certainly haven't figured it all out. But I'm actively learning learning from past experiences now (vs passively before). Becoming a PM helped a lot. Saw a different view on business besides "solution space" where I would hang out a lot. I'm still working on perfecting my master recipe for startups.
