So, Amy has just jumped into the world of freelancing, and while the flexibility of it is exciting, there are plenty of challenges that come along with it! We sit down this week and talk about all our tips and tricks for killing it in the freelance world, from our preferences on where we work the best, to apps we use to stay focused.
