https://www.CocktailLove.com I built last year on my paternity leave and haven’t had significant time to work on it since. I tried to monetize by selling Nick & Nora glasses on the site but didn’t know how to market it (or just no one wanted them).

It still gets a sign-up or so a week and 1.5k visitors a month from Google but it’s far from where I wanted it to be.

I think the biggest learning is that trying to work full time at a new job (moved from FAANG to a scale up), raise a young kid, maintain a relationship with your partner, workout occasionally, and work on a side project all at the same time is near impossible. At least for me :)
