Being Freelance

Don't let Freelance fill all your time - Graphic Designer Jon Hicks

Listen Later

After 15 years of being freelance has given Jon plenty of thoughts to share.

  • the benefits of long term gigs versus variety
  • the way he found other freleancers to set up a coworking space
  • from freelancing as a dad with babies to when their teenagers
  • along with portfolio polishing, book writing, conference speaking, side project creating and payment chasing

    • He also talks about the guilt you can feel when you're not working, hence: don't let Freelance fill all your spare time.

    At least let some of it be filled listening to this.
