A Bite-Sized Blueprint for Creative Freelancers Who Want to Ditch the Hustle and Build a Business That Pays Well, Feels Good, and Actually Works You didn’t leave your 9–5 to be glued to your laptop at midnight, chasing late invoices and wondering if the barista job you had in your teens might actually be less stressful. You went freelance for freedom—but what you got was a feast-or-famine cycle, unpredictable income, and a calendar full of demanding clients who treat you like an employee instead of the expert you are. Sound familiar? You’re not broken. And you’re not alone. You’re just stuck in what I call the 5-Figure Freelancer Trap. And this podcast? It’s the roadmap out. Welcome to The Six-Figure Freelancer Recipe—a no-fluff, 8-part podcast series created for creatives who are ready to stop playing small, start making serious money, and finally run a business that works for them. I’m Jaz, your Pricing Queen™, and over the past 15 years, I’ve gone from undercharging and overwhelmed to running a $300K/year solo freelance business with high margins, no team, and zero burnout. In this series, I’ll walk you through the exact shifts that helped me go from stuck at five figures to consistently earning six—all while working less, charging more, and only saying yes to clients who light me up. My scratch-made recipes will teach you: How to shift from “just another freelancer” to confident creative business owner Why being a generalist is hurting your income (and what to do instead) How to price for value, not time, and finally break up with hourly rates What it takes to create productized, recurring offers that sell themselves How to stop attracting red-flag clients and start building real partnerships The systems that helped me scale without a team and how you can too And how to get crystal clear on your vision of Future Freelance You Each episode is short, honest, and designed to give you a hit of clarity, strategy, and momentum —fast. This isn’t vague “charge your worth” advice or recycled content from the algorithm. It’s real talk and practical action steps for creatives who are great at what they do but never got taught how to run a business. Before you hit play, download the free companion guide at creativebusinesskitchen.com/6figures to follow along, take notes, and start putting these shifts into action today. If you’ve ever thought, “I didn’t go freelance for this,” this series will show you exactly how to build the freelance business you actually wanted — one that’s profitable, peaceful, and uniquely yours. Let’s meet Future Freelance You.
