Om Podcasten

I am a producer, project manager, and business specialist. I created this podcast because I’m passionate about helping business owners, freelancers & other self-employed creatives succeed… and have fun doing it. There’s nothing like the privilege of working for yourself – making your own rules, owning your time, and trusting your instincts to make the right decisions. But I’ll be honest – it’s not always easy. It can feel overwhelming with all the things you have to do, but you CAN do it – you just have to be motivated and willing to do the work. My tips will help you handle the “business” side of things so you can focus on your talent. I’ll share the common issues we face, along with the solutions that have worked for me and my clients. You already have everything you need to succeed. I’m just here to guide you.
