Freeality: What It’s Actually Like to Be a Freelancer & How to Succeed as One

"If you don't know who you are and you don't know what you believe in—and you don't know what your standards are and you don't know what your message is to the world—that's all being manifested consciously or unconsciously in the brand experience that people are having with you in your personal brand and with your company."

In this wide-ranging and inspirational conversation, coach and consultant Tasheen Thomas tells the story of his journey building an independent career and offers advice for others: "I would encourage anyone who's listening to choose yourself. There are so many people out here who do not have the heart that you have, who don't have the intentions that you have. You have an incredible gift to offer the human family. And if you're listening to me today, I would encourage you to go. Go with the light within you and create and make a platform available to receive people who want to learn what you have to teach. Choose yourself because you are a worthy cause, choose yourself because no one can do what you do better than you."
