Managing your headspace and internal world when it comes to anxiety in relation to creating can be really challenging.

They also touch on not booking the last flight out of the UK before a shoot as that can go horribly wrong. - Thanks for listening! Follow us or drop us a DM on Instagram. We’d love to hear from you!

Knowing your worth as a freelance creative is at some stage, a guessing game for almost everyone who chooses to create their own path.

Managing your money as a freelancer is a skill that no one teaches you. Unless you have a parent who is particularly on the ball and instills great wisdom of old into you at an early stage. Both of us, in various ways have walked this journey of finance and business day by day; making mistakes along the way and there’s a bunch we wish someone would have told us at an earlier stage. This week we have a chat about some of our experiences with failing to prepare in our business finances and touch on other subjects such as Masterchef, Justin Bieber and how generous of a friend Toby is to Dom.
