This is a really juicy episode, and I encourage you to hit “play” with bravery and self-leadership; I have no hesitation in saying that this ep. is going to change your financial life.

In this ep., I chat to performer and financial wise-woman, Suzanne Fischer, about how we can get empowered when it comes to managing our freelancer finances (in fact - when it comes to thriving, in that space!)

Take the brave step, and empower yourself with this ep - I promise that you won’t regret it…

Some of the things we cover:

- Challenges that can typically come up.
- The feeling we are “supposed to suffer”.
- Where to begin?
- Steps we can take to get in control of our finances.
- Consciously choosing.
- Paying ourselves a salary.
- Calculating income as percentages.
- Putting aside money for tax, and agent fees, and how we factor that in.
- Play money?
- Money for singing lessons (or training equivalent).
- How we can divide up our accounts for maximum success and visibility.
- Financial sustainability.
- Planning for a family.
- Future planning - pensions, and investing.
- Not feeling we have to put our life on hold, to be a performer.
- Limiting beliefs around side-hustling.
- Golden takeaways for action, today.
