    As someone who’s just made the leap into freelancing after 20 years in studios, The NDA Podcast has been a lifeline. The Freelance & Furious episode in particular hit home, insightful, honest, and full of practical advice that made me feel seen and supported. It’s refreshing to hear real talk about the creative industry from people who truly get it. Highly recommend this to anyone navigating the freelance world or thinking of making the switch.
