Even with her successful career, she had dreams of being an entrepreneur that started when she was in the 3rd grade and those dreams remained with her as she got older.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The opportunity for entrepreneurship eventually presented itself when her husband unexpectedly lost his job in the culinary industry. They began thinking about how to develop a business based on foods they love, and it was an experience at a pop-up ice cream shop while on a trip in Washington, DC, that sparked the idea to open an ice shop in Harlem. Petrushka and her husband went all in and found a location, secured a loan, got permits, and opened Sugar Hill Creamery in only 10 months!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Listen on <a href=\"http:\/\/sidehustlepro.co\/Podcast\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">Apple Podcasts<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/show\/13qDj08lBR4ymzGhXIKy8t\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">Spotify<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/soundcloud.com\/sidehustlepro\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">Soundcloud<\/a>, and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.stitcher.com\/podcast\/side-hustle-pro\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">Stitcher<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;<strong>Links mentioned in this episode<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sugarhillcreamery.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">Sugar Hill Creamery&nbsp;<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/gusto.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">Gusto<\/a>&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodreads.com\/book\/show\/78428.Your_Money_or_Your_Life\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">Your Money or Your Life<\/a>&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Click here to subscribe via RSS feed (non-iTunes feed): <a href=\"http:\/\/sidehustlepro.libsyn.com\/rss\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">http:\/\/sidehustlepro.libsyn.com\/rss<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Announcements<\/strong><\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Join our Facebook Community<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re looking for a community of supportive side hustlers who are all working to take our businesses to the next level, join us here: <a href=\"http:\/\/sidehustlepro.co\/facebook\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">http:\/\/sidehustlepro.co\/facebook<\/a><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Send questions to \u201cAsk Nicaila\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can now send questions for the new \u201cAsk Nicaila\u201d segment that\u2019s coming to Side Hustle Pro.
