- It’s like having friends in your ear cheering you on!
I feel so lucky to have found this podcast when I was just starting out in my freelance biz earlier this year!
I have gained so much incredible information, inspiration, and knowledge from Rachel and Lynne and all of their guests - it’s been invaluable.
I’ve gone from feeling “how am I going to do this?” to “I think I can do this now!”
Thanks Lynne and Rachel for making this podcast and being so generous with your knowledge but doing it in a really fun and lighthearted way 😀

Australiaa year ago - Must-have practical advice
Surely this is one of the most practical and helpful podcasts for freelancers? The audio isn’t great but what’s lacking in slick production is made up for by the quality content. Get a pen and paper and be prepared to absorb all the wisdom shared by the expert guests.
