I am never off the clock': inside the booming world of gen Z side hustles
"Aashna Doshi, a software engineer at Google, is constantly monitoring her headspace. This way I don't burn myself out, she said. And I stay a lot more consistent with my podcast and content creation work. On top of her day job in the tech giant's security and artificial intelligence department, Doshi also publishes social media content about working in tech and her life in New York City, and records podcasts sometimes all three in a day."
"She is part of a seismic generational shift: 57% of gen Z Americans have a side hustle, according to recent Harris Poll research, compared with 21% among boomers. Rather than throwing everything into a single career, many young adults are now spinning plates using their main job as financial bedrock while directing their passion, and ambition, elsewhere. In my side hustles I can finally offer myself an outlet to be creative and express myself without any constraints, said Doshi, 23."
Aashna Doshi works at Google in the security and artificial intelligence department while producing social media content and recording podcasts, sometimes three projects in a single day. She monitors her headspace to avoid burnout and to stay consistent with creative work. A generational shift shows 57% of Gen Z Americans have a side hustle versus 21% of boomers. Many young adults use primary jobs as financial bedrock while pursuing passion projects for creativity, fulfillment, and flexibility. Young professionals increasingly favor portfolios of careers, side hustles, and investing over a single 9-5 path.
