EPISODE 305 SHOW NOTES
Hey there! Happy Monday! In today’s episode, we’re catching up with Hayley Lame, a former school counselor who took a huge leap last spring by quitting her job before reaching her income goal as a freelancer. Fast forward a few months, and she’s now fully booked, replacing her previous salary while working just 20-25 hours a week! Hayley originally shared her story back in June on Episode 290, and today, she’s back with an exciting update.
Hayley shares the route she took to landing clients. She likes to network in Facebook groups where her ideal clients—educators, TPT sellers, and coaches—hang out. She talks about why she shifted from general VA services to social media management and how she got started. She also shares what her daily routine looks like as a mom working from home with her kids.

More about the Live Free Podcast with Micala Quinn:
How do I get started? What if I fail? Who will hire me? Is it really possible to create a consistent, full-time income from home?
Welcome to the Live Free Podcast with Micala Quinn where we will be answering these questions PLUS many more! Whether you’re just starting your freelance business (heck even if you don’t know what freelancing is yet) or you’re looking to scale, this podcast will give you tangible business advice along with inspiring interviews to help you create a life and career that works for YOU and YOUR family.
Your host, Micala Quinn, started out teaching high-school English, but when her first child was born, she immediately began searching for something more. She wanted a way to stay-at-home with her daughter (and future babies), but still needed to bring in a full-time income to help support her family. Micala started freelancing, quickly replaced her full-time income, and now helps other moms (like you) get started and grow their freelance business from scratch to 5K and beyond! She believes that being a working mom or a stay-at-home mom no longer needs to be a black and white decision. You CAN have both. On your terms!
Our motto is Mom Strong, Work Smart, and Live Free. Are you in? We’d love for you to join us each Monday, as well as in our Live Free Podcast Facebook community!
