Over the weekend, I chatted with a few people about the Munay Ki. I wrote a short blog post about it in December 2019. This month, I have the opportunity to further my studies by working through the year-long Mesa Chakuy (Andean Medicine Wheel). 💜

Well shoot! Maybe make it ONE per day, and it has to pertain to something you're doing/working on that day? Make it more specific!

Love this as a chat topic! I have added it to my master list of topic ideas. Thanks, @shanecarpenter.bsky.social!

And no, I don't have an official offboarding list, but I do have ideas if I were to formalize it! Ask for testimonials, add clips to my portfolio, etc. #FreelanceFriends

NICE!! "A woodpecker landing on you spiritually means that you should be persistent in pursuing your goals, as the bird symbolizes resilience and divine timing. It can also be a message to listen to your intuition, pay attention to the subtle signs around you."

A3. I've been freelancing for decades and consulting for 13 years. To keep things professional and reduce my stress, I try to have a predictable new client onboarding process and promptly invoice.
