The world economy has already seen changes as a result of the global pandemic, COVID-19.  We're discussing our first reactions to how this impacts the freelancing community and what to do with client loss.  

We've cleared 80 episodes producing this podcast, and none of it has been easy.  In this episode, we discuss the trials and tribulations of growing a podcast brand; from writing, to post production, to marketing, to monetization.    

For a lot of us, networking face to face is not easy.  It makes us uncomfortable because we feel like we suck at it.  What do I say?  How do I stand?  What the hell do I do with my hands?  There's no one-size, fits all answer.  The ultimate solution is to continually go out and practice.  Today we're discussing a recent networking experience and the takeaways from it.  

Pushing all your chips in on self-employment comes with many challenges, both financially and personally.  Today, Matthew Baker, senior VP of Corporate Strategy and International expansion at Freshbooks accounting, will help you de-risk that move by prioritizing habits that have proven to work best for successful businesses and entrepreneurs.

The transition into a full self-employed lifestyle can provide challenges for everyone.  How do you manage the time to build healthier habits that offset that unhealthy ones?  In this episode, we dive into our challenges that we've faced and how we aim to improve our physical, mental, and emotional freelancing health.

In today's landscape, many photographers and creatives have a reactive marketing mindset, in which they post some form of promotion and expect to get calls flooding in asking for their work.  The reality is we have to be diligent, intentional, and proactive in our marketing approach.  Today we have award winning photographer and entrepreneur, James Patrick, joining the program to discuss marketing strategies that have helped him sustain a consistent six figure photography business year in and year out.
