Thank you for watching, I hope this was an interesting video and I would love to know if you are also working as a freelancer or thinking about it! And if any freelance experts are watching this, please feel free to share your own tips 😊

Such a good video! I have so many questions: - what about insurance? Are there special things for freelancers? - have you tried going to a co-working space? How do you find it? - have you ever considered you client actually your boss? And how do you set boundaries in that perspective? - how are you defining your brand and selling approach? - what about self development and training? Sometimes corporates cover for that

Omg these are such good questions! Maybe I should do another video answering any freelancing related questions 🤩
