What students are saying

"I loved this course! I've been freelancing for a while, but this is definitely the course I didn't know I needed, I learned so much! I'm excited to work on my onboarding experience, get more organized with my business and also be able to improve my communication with clients."

"I came to Sarah's workshop in the very early stages of jumping back into freelance design work. In just 5 days, she provided a wealth of guidance, advice, and resources. Her detailed templates take the guesswork out of setting up a workflow for running a business without burning out. By the end of the week, I had a much better sense of direction!"
