  • Resumen

  • Freelance AF is a cheeky peek behind the curtain into the world of being your own boss! Join freelancing friends Sean Kelly (owner and founder of Barrel to Basket, a wine and cider tasting event company) and Michelle Elliott (professional brand photographer, and owner and founder of MEE Photography) as they dive into the nitty gritty of owning a small business. These intrepid hosts cover a range of topics - like crucial steps to starting your own business, the importance of developing your brand, and how to stay organized - all while laughing and drinking, and never taking themselves too seriously. From the corporate world to becoming entrepreneurs, Sean and Michelle share their successes and struggles to help you find your own path to freelance freedom. Whether you're an established business owner, or just starting on your journey, their hope is to impart some semblance of wisdom on you - or at the very least show you what NOT to do!

  • Episode 10: Who's Down With GPT?
    Apr 29 2025

    You down with GPT? Yeah, you know me!

    This week, Sean and Michelle are all about the AI. Whether you’re out here using it to make ridiculous memes, fully married to it in your daily grind, or giving it major side-eye, everyone has questions. Like, super serious ones; if ChatGPT were a Transformer, would it be an Autobot or a Decepticon? Michelle’s got thoughts, trust.

    Your favourite freelance duo gets real on how they’ve been using ChatGPT to boss up their small biz game, and where it’s crashed and burned in spectacular fashion (“Paging Nurse Michelle for a full AI meltdown!”). They’re breaking down the highs and the lows, and even discussing the environmental impacts of these Large Language Models (yes Sean, that’s what they’re called; write it down, babes). Love it, hate it, scream into the void about it, you’re not escaping AI. So once again we ask: Who’s down with GPT?

    This week’s pour is another delicious London, Ontario offering: Generation Cider Co.’s 1910 Original!

  • Episode 9: A Day in the Life
    Apr 22 2025

    Guess who's back to spill the entrepreneurial tea? Sean and Michelle are pulling back the curtain and letting you sneak a peek at what really goes down in the wild world of boss life. Spoiler: it's way more than just vibes and vision boards.

    Think freelancing is just chillin’ in your PJs, sippin’ mimosas while the money magically appears? We wish! Our hosts kick off their days with caffeine, obviously! Then Michelle’s breaking a sweat while Sean’s off channeling his inner spa day. After that, it's go-time: emails, social media deep dives, and big-brain biz ideas. Sprinkle in some serious skill-stacking - Sean’s all about that "liquid learning" while Michelle’s earning her degree from YouTube U. Throw in photoshoots, tasting events, admin days and voilà! they’ve officially outworked your average 9-5. Freelance AF? More like Fierce And Full-time.

    This week's cider pour is Porter's Perfection from our homegrown hero, Heeman's Cellar, right here in good ol' London, Ontario!

  • Episode 8: Mythbusters
    Apr 15 2025

    Throw on that lab coat, grab your safety goggles and get ready to bust some myths, freelancer style! This week, your fabulous neighbourhood hustlers are channeling their inner MythBusters – sorry, no Bigfoot or aliens here (though we’re not ruling out intergalactic side gigs). That means diving into the wild, wacky world of entrepreneurial myths. You know, the kind people love to whisper about behind their lattes, and, even more dangerously, the ones entrepreneurs believe about themselves.

    Think you have to be rolling in dough, grinding 24/7, or under 30 with a ring light to make it? Think again. Sean and Michelle are calling BS on those tired clichés. They’re breaking it all down, from the “I must do everything myself” delusion to the “success should be instant” fantasy. And don’t even get them started on the obsession with social media followers.

    Believing a myth now and then? Totally human. Letting it steer your business? Major red flag. Stay sharp, freelancers – these streets are no joke, but with the right mindset (and a handful of sass), you’ve got this!

    This week’s pour is Reif Estate Winery’s Drea’s Dornfelder, a deliciously smooth and fruity red wine from Ontario’s Niagara wine region!
