H1 check-in time

+ this week’s hot jobs

You started this year with big goals. Where are you now?

Maybe you've hit milestones you're really proud of and want to build on that momentum. Maybe life or business threw you a curveball and you got off track. Maybe the goals you set in January don't even feel right anymore.

Whatever the case, you want to finish strong rather than just finish.

On July 16, we’re hosting a free 90-minute workshop for freelancers, solopreneurs, founders, and small business owners who are ready to take an honest look at the first half of their year.

We're creating a structured space to be real, get vulnerable, and leave with actual clarity on where you stand in relation to your goals and a concrete plan for what you need to do to make the rest of this year feel good.

I'll walk through my own goals live, sharing what I hit, what I missed, and how I'm thinking about the rest of the year. Then you'll have guided working time to do the same and walk away with a real plan for H2.

This is not a sit-and-listen session. You’ll have time to do the work, and you’ll leave knowing exactly what the rest of this year needs to look like.

July 16. 10 AM PT. Free.

And now an offer from this week’s freelance advocate, and a list of curated hot jobs!

Your Freelance Advocate: DUPAY

Over $1M of recovered late or no payments for freelancers across 16 countries, with invoices ranging from $47 to $120K and an 81%+ success rate.

DUPAY is a lawyer-built income protection service for freelancers. 

Unpaid invoices are a mental and financial burden. 

With DUPAY's Tools + Protection plan ($29/mo), freelancers get unlimited unpaid invoice advocacy, so they never have to decide whether an invoice is worth pursuing, because they all are. 

Whether it's a dispute, an admin delay, or a client who's gone quiet, DUPAY works on subscribers' behalf using demand letters, human-led advocacy, and escalation tactics. 

No collections agency, no legal fees, no cut of recoveries. Subscriptions also include contract tools and professional invoice generation and tracking. 

Use code HARLOW10 for $10 off your first month of Tools + Protection.
