Freelancing—and even just learning the mindset of freelancing—can radically improve your career, income, and clarity, whether or not you ever become a freelancer. After 10+ years as a freelance software engineer, I’ve seen firsthand how these principles lead to more money, stronger careers, and a clearer sense of purpose at work.

In this video, I break down three key ideas:

Cut the noise – Understand exactly why your work matters and how it drives value.

Everything is a contract – Get clear on goals, expectations, and how to advance in any role.

CYA (Cover Your A**) – Track your work, protect yourself, and build long-term leverage.

These freelancing principles apply to everyone—not just engineers. If you're serious about leveling up, this video is for you.

👩‍💻 Learn to Code here: https://scrimba.com/?via=codycodes (I've found a lot of great value)

I've been a software engineer since 2008 and with over a decade of experience, the industry is as crazy and as varied as ever.

I continually get asked for career advice and how to navigate writing code for a living and I wanted to share everything I've learned in hopes that I can help someone who is just starting in software engineering, who has been in it for a while and is too afraid to ask, or the seasoned vet to either agree or argue with me.

The intent of this channel is to have multiple series that include the following topics:
💰 Compensation
📈 Negotiations
📚 Career advice and guidance
📈 Stocks, RSUs, Stock options, and ESPP plans
👨‍🏫 Engineering interviews

I've done just about everything in software from working for 3 person start ups, 300 person start ups, silicon valley companies, Fortune 500 companies, small teams, big teams, W2 employment and 1099 contracting, full time contracting and moonlight part time work, independent development, launching my own web apps and iphone app.
