Holy moly, this week marks the Season 1 finale of the Freelance AF Podcast!

Sean and Michelle are strutting down memory lane, spilling tea, and cackling their way through the highs, lows, and utterly unhinged tangents that made their very first season what it was. We’re reliving our favourite moments, discussing behind-the-scenes chaos, and handing out a few delightfully fake awards nobody asked for (but we’re giving out anyway).

This show simply wouldn’t exist without the love and support from our family, friends, and every single listener who tuned in – whether you’ve been here since episode one or just popped by for a little freelance wisdom (or nonsense). From the bottom of our hearts, thank you. Creating this season with you has been pure magic.

We’ll be taking a short break (because even your favourite freelancers need a nap) but don’t worry. Season 2 is already brewing and will be hitting your ears in the first quarter of 2026.

Until then, keep freelancing, keep dreaming, and remember: you’ve got this, you’re the boss, and if we can pull this off so can you.

Or, as the ever-iconic Porky Pig said best: “That’s all, folks!”

This week on the Freelance AF podcast your favourite hosts are slipping on their proton packs and gearing up to battle every entrepreneur’s nightmare: ghosting.

Ghosting is all-too common, with over half of Canadians saying they’ve been ghosted at least once in the past year. And for small businesses? Depending on the industry you’re in that could be even higher (think 60-70%).

Whether you blame app and phone-based culture or our ever-increasingly apathetic populace, it’s clear us small biz owners need to toughen up. After all, it’s business not personal! Sean and Michelle dive into it, talking about the how, what, why and when of those eerily ephemeral clients and what you can do to ease the toll on yourself. And maybe, just maybe, even reduce the chances of it happening to you.

So ask Janine to hold all calls and say it with us now: I ain’t afraid of no ghost!

Who you gonna call?

Feeling tired, run-down, or like your motivation packed its bags and ghosted you? Good news; this week we’re serving up a full-on Motivation Makeover!

Motivation might be our ride-or-die, but wow does it love to play hard to get. It’s not magic; it’s a muscle. And we’re talking how to grow it, flex it, and keep it from tapping out when life gets a little “nope.”

Sean and Michelle are diving into what motivation actually is, how to build it from scratch, and how to keep that fire lit so you can keep showing up like the boss you are.

Because let’s be real: down days happen. What matters is how fast you can bounce back, dust off, and strut right on through.

Buckle up, because it’s time to get Motivated AF.
