Trusting Your Gut and Firing Problematic Clients

This month, I am celebrating 10 years of full-time freelancing! I can’t quite believe it’s been that long, but I’ve loved nearly everything about it. 10 years of freedom! 

Here’s what I share with you in this episode:

• What the freedom of freelancing has meant to me and what it has allowed me to do.
• How I now realize I was never cut out for a desk job. 
• How I adapt my work schedule around my life schedule. 
• The freedom of not having to deal with the drama of a workplace!
• At least three lessons I learned as a freelancer. 
• A few things I wished I had done sooner as a freelancer.
