In this episode of Your Biz, Your Rules, I’m chatting to freelance coach extraordinaire, Miss better-than-Google herself, Emma Cossey!

The key takeaways:
💛 Freelancing was made for introverts – you get to work from home, you get to take your control back and you get the flexibility of working around your energy.

💛 You will never get to the point where you will entirely finish your to-do list. Accepting that will never happen is the healthiest approach you can take!
