In this very first interview episode of Dirty Thirty Chats, we’re having a real girl chat about one big question we’ve both faced in our late twenties and early 30s: ⚡ is freelancing actually worth it? ⚡

I sit down with one of my closest friends – Meg Donnelly, a graphic designer who built her own freelance business in her twenties — and together we unpack the highs, lows, freedom, uncertainty and anxiety that come with carving out your own path as a solopreneur versus sticking with the stability of a 9–5 and a steady employment contract.

We talk openly about shifting away from hustle culture and into a lifestyle-first mindset, making career decisions that feel good rather than just financially “safe,” and giving ourselves permission to pivot when things no longer align.

If you’re debating freelancing, craving more balance, or trying to figure out what work should look like in this season of your life, I hope this honest chat helps you feel seen [and reminds you that your path doesn’t have to look like anyone else’s 😉).
