Life as a freelancer and business owner is paved with thorns. That’s why I’d recommend The Freelancer’s Academy for their supportive community. I have seen for myself the sincerity and heart that the TFA community has and it is truly remarkable! They are a community that keeps on giving - immense value through knowledge, skills and community mindshare. If you are looking for a community that at its core is about helping you boost your business with poise and heart, choose TFA! The founders, AJ and Renee are incredibly warm, sincere and thoughtful. Working with them has been a pleasant experience and if you value working with professionals that are ambitious, dedicated and service-oriented with a keen eye for detail, Renee is who you should work with!

I realized (quite noobly) that I could have just reached out to Azurah Jan and Renee Ismail to ask for their recommendations! I have access to BOTH an audio and video expert through TFA Circle and it totally skipped my mind 🤦🏻‍♂️ Long story short, I hopped on a Clarity Call with AJ and Renee, and voila! Got my problem settled in 30 minutes 🥳 So THANK YOU both for your generous advice and thoughtful suggestions. I super appreciate it! PSA to TFA members: Just ask! If TFA Circle isn't our quickest shortcut, I dunno what is. Big hugs 🥰

I went for my first clarity call with the amazing ladies from TFA Renee and AJ. I came with a few questions that have been in my mind for awhile and have learnt a lot from their expertise, sharing and experience - which were real-life scenarios! I also found it helpful when they gave me pointers and small steps as homework, so I had better clarity and understanding on how to move forward from the first call. I now feel more empowered and equipped to do better. If you ever thought of going on a clarity call them them, don’t think twice! 😊
