In this bonus content we read a snippet from our previous episode after running it through a transcription service, spoiler alert ... I didn't go well.
It's here! episode one - in this episode Pete and I talk about getting started in the world of freelance, how we started ourselves and mistakes we've made.
We also throw in a few tips for anyone thinking about going freelance, and introduce the podcast.
No real notes for this episode sadly, short and sweet, but I promise in future episodes I will be adding as much useful information here regarding the topics we talk about.
