Are you ready to learn how to be a successful freelancer on your own terms?



I had the pleasure of talking with Mateo Melgar, a family-first digital entrepreneur, who built a successful freelancing business from scratch. He shares his journey from making a mere $3 an hour as a virtual assistant to earning over $5,000+ a month as a freelancer, all while maintaining a healthy work-life balance.




We dive into Mateo's entrepreneurial beginnings, discuss the importance of finding a niche skill that people will pay for and uncover valuable freelancing tips to market yourself on platforms like Upwork.



Mateo discusses how he uses his mental health challenges to his advantage by carving out a system that makes him more productive in business but allows him to be present for his family.

Don't miss Matteo's insightful advice on achieving freedom and success in the world of digital entrepreneurship without losing yourself along the way.
