Why You're Stuck at 5 Figures Freelancing

Six-Figure Freelancer Recipe

Welcome to the very first episode of Six Figure Freelancer! I’m Jaz—your pricing queen—and I couldn’t be more excited to kick off this bite-sized podcast series for creative freelancers who are ready to finally build the business they actually left their nine-to-five for.

If you’re feeling stuck in that awkward space where you know you’re talented, but your income just isn’t showing it, trust me—you’re not alone. I’ve been there too. For years, I struggled to break through that five-figure ceiling, always hustling, chasing clients, and getting pulled into the chaos of late nights, unpaid invoices, and a calendar that never seemed to let up.

This podcast is all about changing that. I’m here to share the exact shifts that took me from stressful, unpredictable months to running a $300,000-a-year solo freelance business—with high profit margins, no team, and zero burnout. You won’t just get vague advice or “charge your worth” pep talks here—these are real strategies and frameworks I’ve personally tested and refined, both in my own business and with hundreds of creative freelancers I’ve helped since 2021.

In this episode, I start with why so many talented creatives are stuck feeling underpaid and overworked. I’ll show you the biggest traps freelancers fall into and why mastering pricing, packaging, positioning, and client relationships is the real recipe for success. If you’re ready to shift from just another freelancer to a confident creative business owner, you’re in exactly the right place.
