Sarabia Anna has spent over a decade navigating the unpredictable waters of freelance life. After leaving a corporate marketing role in 2012, she experienced the full spectrum of independent work—from scrambling for gigs in her first year to building a six-figure consultancy with recurring revenue from a portfolio of retainer clients across Europe and North America.
Her writing on freelance business strategy has been featured in publications including Freelancers Union, The Creative Independent, and a handful of industry newsletters that accidentally went viral among communities of independent professionals. She has spoken at conferences, led workshops, and hosted a podcast that ran for three seasons, where she interviewed freelancers about the specific systems that kept them afloat during slow seasons.
Alongside her consulting practice, Sarabia runs a small online teaching platform where she guides new freelancers through the transition from side hustle to sustainable business. Her students consistently report breaking through income plateaus and landing their first retainer clients within months of implementing the frameworks she teaches.
She is based in Barcelona, where she shares a home studio with two surprisingly loud cats and an espresso machine that gets more use than she'd like to admit. When she is not writing, consulting, or building curriculum, she can be found hiking in the Collserola hills or plotting her next trip to a city she has not yet worked from.
Sarabia Anna is available for speaking engagements, consulting, and the occasional guest appearance on podcasts that take the business of freelancing seriously. She believes deeply that the freelance life should be a choice made from abundance, not a fallback option driven by desperation. She wrote this book to help make that belief a reality for as many people as possible.
