This isn’t a new topic by any means – we know the state of the industry we work in. We’re in it for our reasons, and we stay in it because we love what we do.

While I love my job, it’s flexibility, and the outcome, I never find enough time to enjoy one of the main reasons I started freelancing: to spend time with my son.
