We're 1 week into lockdown and there's a LOT going on. We sit down with Tessa Kleingeld, founder of The Resource, to get her insight into the freelance community, and talk about some of the fundamental shifts that the industry, country, and the world is undergoing right now. We talk about how the affects of COVID-19 have yet to be felt, and how that's leaving freelancers on a high-wire between complacency and anxiety. We discuss side hustles, skills development, "hustle porn", the possibility of financial support from various government and private funds, and banana bread. Note: At the time of recording, we chatted about the Sakuma Relief Programme. As of Tuesday 7 April, that fund of R1bn is oversubscribed to the tune 10 000 submissions and R2.8bn, and has been closed. That speaks eloquently of the situation that sole proprietors and SMEs are in.
