It’s a glitter-soaked, confetti-filled kinda week on the podcast as your favourite Freelancers throw a double celebration: Pride Month and Sean’s birthday!

That’s right, Sean’s another year older (but no wiser), and Michelle’s putting him in the hot seat with all the hard-hitting questions. Like which Fab Five member does he emulate? What really matters when you're celebrating your birthday? And how has being a gay man shaped his journey as a boss-level biz owner?

Spoiler alert: it’s all about leading with love, embracing your sparkle, and never saying no to glitter, especially on your birthday.

So pour yourself something strong (because hydration is cute, but cocktails are cuter), throw on that feather boa, and join us for laughs, honesty, and a whole lotta Proud AF energy.

This week’s pour is Loch Mór Cider Co.’s Sour Cherry Cider, from Prince Edward County! This cider was a recent winner at the 2025 GLINTCAP Awards!

Your favourite Freelancers are back with their second-ever interview episode, and this one’s a motherload of goodness.

We’re sitting down with the incredible Jessie Daypuck, author of Me, Myself and Motherhood, a guided journal that’s basically a love letter to moms who are doing their best while trying to keep their sanity intact. Jessie took her own mental health journey and turned it into a jam-packed collection of tools and exercises to boost positivity, self-worth, gratitude, and tackle that never-ending mom guilt. If you know, you REALLY know.

But let’s be real – this is Freelance AF, so things veer off the rails in the best possible way. Michelle’s out here researching the perfect murder (don’t worry, it’s hypothetical… we think). Sean’s spiritually Spice-Girling alongside Jessie to “Wannabe.” And somehow we end up learning that Michelle is a full-on “peeper” pleaser and Sean has a vendetta against Jos Louis'. We also talk about how passion projects, especially the ones close to your heart, don’t always come together overnight. But when they do, they’re worth every messy, glorious step.

So grab a coffee, stake out your comfiest corner, and get ready to Journal like a Mother. Trust us – this one’s got heart, humour, and a hell of a lot of honesty.

This week’s pour is Sober Carpenter’s Dealcoholized Craft Cider, courtesy of our friends at Designated Drinks!

Father’s Day is upon us, and your Freelance AF hosts are getting sentimental (but like, in our own unhinged way). This week, we’re raising a glass to the father figures who taught us everything from how to use power tools and our voices, to why showing up matters – and why farts are never, ever to be trusted. (Seriously; apparently, Michelle has stories.)

We asked our listeners to spill the best life lessons they’ve picked up from their dads, stepdads, bonus dads, and dad-adjacents, and y’all delivered. From heartwarming gems to wildly inappropriate wisdom, we’re dishing it all out with our signature cocktail of chaos and charm.

So whether you’re a dad, a daddy, or just someone who gives big “hold my flashlight while I fix this” energy, we’re toasting you today; fatherly AF and proud of it!

This week’s pour is Spirit Tree Estate Cidery’s Draught Cider, a deliciously bubbly and smooth creation from Caledon, Ontario!
