This week we talk about the mental fuel that keeps us going creatively, like watching T-Pain live-streaming on Twitch making his music whilst working on our own stuff. There’s something powerful about seeing other creatives in their flow that helps us stay in ours.
We also reflect on Matt’s recent holiday where he brought along his very first camera, curious to see if the tech still holds up today. In the video version of this episode, we showcase some of the photos he shot and talk about whether gear from the past can still deliver in 2025.
But the core of this episode is a conversation around the freelance mindset. What it really takes to stay self-employed long-term. We cover everything from living below your means and the dangers of lifestyle inflation, to how important gratitude, financial buffers, and grounded expectations are for longevity. The real win in freelancing? Staying in the game.
