It's series 9 of the podcast and we are going back to basics. In the first episode of the new series we discuss how to go freelance.
How do you take the leap into the freelance world? What is the best way to do it, and how do you overcome the freelance imposter syndrome? Our guests this week, Laura Cooke and Charlotte Scotland, are experienced journalists who have both recently gone freelance.
