EP 13:  Underpricing is rampant in the freelance economy, and there are way too many reasons to list in one episode.  In fact, we could pretty much sum it up by saying everyone is to blame.  The economy, the clients, and the creatives all take partial blame for lowering industry-standard rates, but for now, we're going to focus on photographers and how they can take the power back!  In this episode, we identify a few red flags in your pricing strategy by breaking down an employee mindset and start building an entrepreneurial one.

EP 8:  Attracting clients is no easy task as a freelancing creative, particularly when passive marketing has been shown to rarely produce major returns.  Instead, it is proactive marketing and focusing on content that is in-demand that will yield success.  In this episode, I have the privilege to sit down with commercial photographer, Tri Nguyen, about his creative process and the evolution of his career that has picked up more work in 2020 than ever before.

EP 7:  Have you ever felt that you weren't good enough to belong in a perceived class; that maybe you're pulling a fast one on everyone with smoke and mirrors, or even worse, that you shouldn't even try to reach that level in the first place?  Imposter syndrome often seems like it comes with the territory of being a creative professional, and today I get to sit down with a photographer, Brandon Magnus (San Jose Sharks/SAP Center), to dive in on this issue.  What experiences has he dealt with as he's climbed to new levels of his career?  How has he dealt with his own self-doubt to combat these negative narratives?
