Freelance besties: I need your wallet's opinion PLEASE. A lot of freelancers I chat with say we need more carved space for us to learn together + meet one another. Funny enough, I was an event planner for 7 years. If I put a shindig together in DC, would y'all come?.

Ok so not one but TWO of my athletes qualified for provincial championships!. Both are lifelong athletes, but neither had thrown shot put (the event I coach) until now. In 5 weeks, they transformed from general athlete into shot putters with potential. I'm so excited for them!.

Freelancers: The best way to make a lot of money ISN'T huge contracts and always raising your prices. It's: .- Land + expand with clients.- Optimize your work capacity so you can deliver more. Big contracts and raising prices play a role, but a smaller one than you think.
