Hey there, freelance friends! 👋If you've ever fantasized about quitting your job (and let's be honest, who hasn't?), today's training is going to give you the REAL tea about what it actually takes to go from "maybe I should try freelancing" all the way to "see ya later, corporate overlords!"But first, a quick heads up: I'm still recovering from COVID that absolutely DECIMATED me for two weeks (hence the lovely froggy voice you're about to hear in the video).
