Episode 21: A Hyper Curated Freelance Ecosystem with Karina Rehavia

Author: Sarah Duran March 7, 2024 Duration: 36:24

Karina Rehavia isn't building "just" another freelance marketplace; she's building an ecosystem for freelancers and their clients that focuses on an amazing experience on both sides of the equation. Plus, she's one of the most dedicated and passionate people I know. We talk about freelancing in Latin America, her no a**holes policy, and hope for 2024.

Karina is an accomplished entrepreneur and business leader with a proven track record of innovative service offerings. In her 20-year career I’ve had the honor of contributing to the development and growth of business initiatives for some of the most prominent organizations in the world in the areas of international business development, management and large-scale project leadership, having lived and worked in Brazil, the USA, England, China and UAE. At Ollo, she investigates the future of work and new work-related ecosystems, helping companies and independent professionals navigate the challenges and opportunities of the open talent economy.

Hosted by Sarah Duran, The Future is Freelance moves beyond the typical success story narrative to tackle the real, often unspoken, challenges of independent work. This podcast operates on a core belief: the most practical and resilient solutions are forged by the people living this reality every day. Each episode convenes voices from across the entire freelance ecosystem-from solo creators and agency owners to platform developers and policy advocates. The goal is to break down the silos and echo chambers that often isolate us, creating a rare space for genuine dialogue. You’ll hear frank discussions about pricing, client relationships, systemic inequities, mental health, and the philosophical shifts redefining modern work. Rather than offering one-size-fits-all advice, these conversations leverage collective wisdom to explore actionable paths forward. Tuning in means joining a grounded community effort to not just navigate the present landscape, but to actively shape what comes next. It’s for anyone curious about the human and structural dynamics behind the growing freelance economy, seeking both solidarity and substantive strategy.
