Boundaries to Avoid Burnout as a Digital Nomad

Avoiding burnout as a digital nomad and freelancer starts with setting boundaries with your clients. In this episode I sit down with my friend Camilla, a Finnish video editor and digital nomad based in Da Nang. We talk about starting a business when you don’t know what you want to do and why setting boundaries from the beginning as a new business owner is important.

We talk about:

• how to avoid burnout as a digital nomad freelancer
• setting boundaries with clients when you're just starting out
• why new freelancers get taken advantage of and how to recognize it
• going from one-off gigs to stable freelance income
• designing your work week around ADHD and your cycle
• networking your way to better clients as a digital nomad
• why you don't have to be an expert to get good clients
• learning skills on the go and building your business along the way

Camilla is a video editor and photographer based in Da Nang, Vietnam. She works with SaaS companies on video marketing and has been living the nomad life for two years.
