Eva and Danielle are so relatable and drop knowledge in a fun, insightful way. They tackle topics of conversation you don’t necessarily find elsewhere in business podcasts. Great listen, I don’t miss a week.
Apple Podcasts5ThemallomanUnited States2 years ago - Great podcast
Danielle and Eva are so relatable! The podcast topics are everything we are going through! Looking forward to more episodes!
Apple Podcasts5X3kiddUnited States3 years ago - Finally. Real talk about turning your dream into a reality, and what it takes.
While I am not a full-time freelance creative (in-house is my current gig with some freelance on the side sprinkled in), this podcast is so entertaining and enlightening. It resonates with me on so many levels - setting boundaries, making time for yourself and realizing I might be an introvert? I had no idea.
Can’t wait for the next episode!
Apple Podcasts5KMH1077United States3 years ago - They get it.
Finally a group of women that do freelance design and talk about all aspects of that life. It’s very entertaining, relatable and informative. I feel like I am sitting in my home office with some friends in the room with me. Love this podcast!
