On this show we talk al lot about starting your own business, go build stuff, be creative. That seems like a good thing to do in these times, but how do you start freelancing? How do you define your rate? How do you get clients? To answer those questions I sat down with two amazing freelancers: Frederique Matti (https://frederiquematti.com/) and Stephen O’Neill (http://stev.ie/).
