Kind of a weird title but hear me out... Sam Pemberton is a freelance photographer, art director & creative.

This week I sat down with Danielle Lazenis to talk about her transition from a 9-5 to being self-employed. Dani is a full-time content creator/ influencer – which is a job that often gets a bad reputation, even though most of us follow influencers. We talk about what being a content creator actually means, whether it's an easy job or not (you know how every influencer says their job is hard and every non-influencer laughs at them), and what I was most interested in: how Dani managed to transitio...

Big thanks to my new therapist, Tom Batson, for joining me this week. But in all seriousness, I think this is something that a lot of people in their 20s are feeling and honestly I haven't seen many people speaking candidly about it. And the title is sort of clickbait, because I don't think we really came to a conclusion here. Listen to Three Pints In on Spotify or Apple Pods etc :)
This week I caught up with Peter Havers, a freelance copywriter who is currently traveling the US to speak to experts and founders in the climate tech industry. Quitting a full-time job to do your own thing is scary. It's even scarier when you don't already have an income from that thing. So we sat down to discuss: - Life in NYC - How we get freelance work - What it means to "own the stage you're at" - Easy self care methods - Spending time alone - Imposter Syndrome (my fav topic apparently) Ple...

The last 2 minute episode went down pretty well so here's another one. They're also like really fun for me to do soooo. I haven't watched the news for a year and a half and it's been so much fun. Is it selfish? Yes. But I don't need to hear about every minor crime, I don't care about everything happening in politics, and I don't really want to know too much about what's going on with the economy. I'm not saying become a zen monk and retreat to the mountains far away, but if you want to keep up w...

This was a selfish episode.

Holly Rollins is a spatial and furniture designer, and the founder of Rol Studio. We're talking inner critics, staying focused, and self reflection. This episode gets deeeep and I wouldn't have it any other way!! We all have that voice in our head that tells us we're not enough, not doing enough, or we could be working harder. Sometimes I kind of like it, because it helps keep us on track. Without it, we literally wouldn't do anything at all. But when it gets too much, or you pay it too much att...
