296. Three Tips for Managing Multiple Clients as a Freelancer

Hey guys! Happy Monday! In today’s episode, I'm chatting with Kaitlin Christensen about how she built a flexible freelancing career while managing motherhood and narcolepsy. Kailyn has a background in marketing, but her medical condition, narcolepsy, forced her to leave the traditional workforce.
