How I Balance Freelance Work With a Full-Time Job (Without Burning Out)

As a freelance marketer with a 9–5, I’ve spent the last few years experimenting with ways to get high-quality work done without losing my mind (or my weekends).

This tiny change helps me maintain the psychological boundary between relaxing and getting things done.
