<description>&lt;p&gt;In this episode, I go over the idea that people can't get started freelancing if they have no 'skills.' I first talk about why the concept of 'expertise' doesn't really exist, and I move into why you &lt;strong&gt;should just get started anyway.&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Everyone started at square one at some point in their career. You need to get experience, first, if you want to have skills. Don't let the gatekeeping stop you!&lt;/p&gt;</description>
