Ash Czarnota from Alpine Start Creative joins us today on the pod. She's a small business owner, freelance writer, thru-hiker, and fan of failing forward!

Our freeform conversation talks about:

• what it was like to start her biz (spoiler: she flew by the seat of her pants)
• how she saved for, prepped her biz for, and went on a thruhike of the PCT
• what coming home from a thruhike to diving back into work felt like
• pro tips for new freelancers

You can find Ash online:
