The Freelance Revolution Podcast

Leah Meyers & Sarah Duran•freelancersaligned.mykajabi.com

The Freelance Revolution Podcast is hosted by Leah Meyers & Sarah Duran. We do different work as freelancers, find our clients in different ways, and have different business models. The thing that unites us is a passion for helping others work on their own terms. We’re not here to give you a silver bullet or sugar-coat the work it will take to develop and run a successful business. We're here to guide you through the journey we’ve already taken, bust common myths about the freelance lifestyle, and give you the support you need to keep going when things get tough.
