In today's episode I am joined by the wonderful Pearse O'Halloran, a freelance designer and creative powerhouse behind Loom Graphics! Join us for a very witty, very entertaining and very honest conversation about the power of no!!

To begin we laugh and learn about Pearse's origin story,  from creative awakenings ignited by a 90's army canvas bag to the evolution of his craft from a bustling Glasgow city to the serene Scottish isles.

Then for our hot topic segment Pearse and I get personal about the struggles and triumphs of freelance life and uncover the importance of self-worth. Pearse offers his wisdom on the transformative power of "no" – a simple yet scary word that many of us are reluctant to use. He also shares insider tips on nurturing freelancer-client relationships and talks about the necessity of setting boundaries.

To wrap up the episode, Pierce enlightens me in the 'Movie and Pie' segment, praising the virtues of a mac cheese pie paired with an adrenaline-pumping movie pick from the 'Mad Max' saga. Which one you ask? Well you've just have to listen and find out 😉 

Whether you're a seasoned freelancer or just starting out, this episode is a hearty blend of nostalgia, humour, and practical advice! So get it in your lugs!
