Cliff Beach – Musician and Author of Side Hustle & Flow: 10 Principles to Live and Lead a More Productive Life in Less Time

We all have the same amount of time, but some people are
maximizing it. There are people that think ‘how do you spend your
time,’ but really you need to be thinking ‘how
do I invest my time.’

Cliff Beach

Cliff Beach knows how to side hustle. Cliff has an MBA from Pepperdine University and a BM in Music Business Management. He is a Distinguished Toastmaster & Member of Toastmasters International based in Culver City, CA. He is the house band leader for Josh Gates Tonight on Discovery Channel, host of Deeper Grooves on 88.5 FM KCSN, a TEDX speaker, and his hit song ‘Confident’ is approaching 1 million streams on Spotify – all while maintaining his full-time day job as VP of Digital Operations with an online beauty company. In Side Hustle & Flow, Cliff tells the story of how he found a happy, balanced way to live a passion-filled and successful life –  and how we can, too. Side Hustle & Flow eschews the avalanche of books that make vague promises of fame & fortune. Cliff describes a detailed and realistic approach to building a more fulfilling life using practical productivity practices and real life techniques built upon 10 principles. Cliff’s story helps us to discover a thoughtful way to embrace our own side hustle – as a creative outlet, a chance to give back, an additional income stream while we continue to work our ‘day job’ – and helps us to flow.
