You’re in business, you’ve got customers and things are going great. But there may come a point where you either want to do something else and expand your skills, or maybe your customers love you so much they want more goods and services - and they want them from you specifically. How do you add more services into your offering? In this episode, we talk about how to expand what you offer in a way that's manageable and sustainable!

In the olden days of our parents or grandparents, you had one job and you did that job for life - or at least for a long time. Now the ways of work have changed and people are used to switching jobs, but although having a “side hustle” is more common, there’s still some stigma around having more than one project, business or role as a freelancer. In this episode we look at whether you can have your cake and eat it by doing more than just one thing!

Big business is rubbish at looking after our planet, so it looks like it’s up to us micro-businesses to lead the way.  But can we make a difference?

In this episode we talk about what it means to be authentic beyond an Instagram hashtag.

In this episode, we're talking about the challenges of being a female freelancer. Do women face more challenges in freelancing than men? What’s the difference? And what can we do about it?
