Self-employed professionals whose work is creatively and intuitively led are in a unique position when valuing their non-commodity work. Is it right to charge for something that springs from a natural gift? MindstreamConnect.com Editor Liza Horan explores this topic by sharing research on this special workforce and leading a panel discussion that Mindstream hosted for National Freelancers Day 2019.

• Part I focuses on national trends on independent professionals' money mindset and the joys and challenges of the self-employed workers in complementary, alternative, and natural health, and spiritual growth disciplines; and the panel participants discuss their own journeys from employee to self-employed, sharing anecdotes and learnings. This audio file is Part I.
• Part II delves into insights on money mindset by the attendees of the National Freelancers Day event, while the panel discusses how to set boundaries, when to work for free (or not), and steps to self-belief.

Bonus: Listeners are invited to join the test panel for the upcoming new website.
