Talking Freelance with Jessica Hische, Lettering Artist and Author

March 22, 2021 • Jason Porter, Jessica Hische • Season 2 • Episode 1

This week, Jessica (@jessicahische), lettering artist, author, and professional procrastiworker, talks about knowing when your freelance job is your full-time job. We get in the weeds with artist reps and making connections to people at places that want to hire you and, more importantly, work that people know how to hire for in the future. In the end, we agree to not worry about having your shit together in five years; it’s not a race to the top.
