Episode 37 - Treat Freelance As a 9-5

Author: Ewan Brock October 31, 2019 Duration: 37:02

Oooo! Controversial!! Let’s See what your two good friends have to say about this!! We’re very sorry we’ve been away for a little while!! Please forgive us!! We’ve been very busy working!

In today's episode we discuss if you should treat freelance like a 9-5 job, baby sick on your favourite jumper, travelling in 1st class and I think there’s some dating advice hidden in there too?

We (Ewan Brock and Oliver Cuthbertson) have been freelancers for 7+ years and friends for even longer.

Come and join us for an informal chat about all things freelance/self employment and laugh along as we try to figure out how to "make it" and discuss a new topic every week.

Follow our VERY* successful and VERY* professional careers and tell all your friends.

Ewan Brock hosts Freelance As F, a business podcast that cuts through the glossy, often unrealistic success stories surrounding self-employment. Here, you'll find a candid and frequently humorous conversation about what it actually means to build a career on your own terms. Each episode digs into the unvarnished details-from navigating inconsistent income and difficult clients to the solitude of a home office and the myth of perpetual freedom. This isn't about inspiration without substance; it's a practical, sometimes cheeky look at the daily grind and small victories that define the freelance journey. The discussions are grounded in real experience, offering relatable anecdotes and straightforward perspectives that resonate whether you're just considering the leap or are a seasoned veteran. Tune in for a refreshingly honest take that replaces romanticised notions with the tangible, messy, and rewarding reality of working for yourself. This podcast serves as both a companion and a reality check for anyone in the independent trenches.
