Working in silence is for the birds!!

Welcome back to another episode of Freelancing in Orbit City. I wanted to take time to talk about "working in silence" and how the negatives dramatically outweigh the positives. Don't let lack of confidence or fear of the unkncown stop you from doing what you know you need to do. Working in public might just be the one thing that pushes you the fastest towards Life/work balance and any other goal along the way!

Welcome back to another episode of Freelancing in Orbit City! In this episode, we talk about finances as a freelancer, independent, or solopreneur. Basically, if you're 1099 you need to be here!

There are gold nuggets sprinkled throughout as we talk about what to do with receipts, what exactly a write-off is, and how you probably should be paying QUARTERLY TAXES!
