Hey Shea! I want to say a huge thanks for all this valuable information. I'm a freelance content writer and English/French translator and dared to take the plunge thanks to people like you who shared their experience. Even though I'm already working as a freelancer, I always like to hear about others' experience and tips.
I really like your channel and enjoy watching the videos you post here. Keep up the good work! 👍
