emily freeman @emilyfreeman.bsky.social · 17/12/2025Explaining to my kid that St*phen M!ller’s Vanity Fair portrait was not the best of the bunch — “his isn’t so bad” — and was designed to make him look like Goebbels was not on my 2025 bingo card. This is why art is important. 2251

emily freeman @emilyfreeman.bsky.social · 15/05/2025Freeman & Forrest is a year old! It's been a wild, incredible journey and we've learned so much. I'm remembering an executive we pitched early on who called us a "small business for shitty little companies." Anyway, we've paid technical content creators $1.7M. I'm proud of that. fnf.dev/one-yearfreemanandforrest.com5 Big Numbers from 1 Big Year at Freeman & ForrestWith one full year under our belts, here are a few of the numbers from this year that we’re most excited about. 141106

emily freeman @emilyfreeman.bsky.social · 09/05/2025I’m far from perfect. I’m learning every day. But I swear 80% of this is hiring talented humans and then getting out of the way. 2392
emily freeman @emilyfreeman.bsky.social · 09/05/2025I’m not charmed by “perfect” resumes. I believe people with rockier paths have more grit. They’re capable of figuring it out, no matter what “it” is. And I love it when people say “we” but can identify how they individually contributed to a larger mission. That matters. 1400
emily freeman @emilyfreeman.bsky.social · 09/05/2025I love finding people who have historically been overlooked or under appreciated. People who continue to strive despite not getting the credit they deserve are intrinsically motivated. They’re gonna work hard no matter what. 1220
emily freeman @emilyfreeman.bsky.social · 09/05/2025If I’ve seen you transition careers or take time away or juggle a bunch of things at once, I know you know how to pivot. Adapting to change is always hard. I believe people who have experienced big changes in their lives adapt faster to changes at work. 1221
emily freeman @emilyfreeman.bsky.social · 09/05/2025I have somehow assembled one of the best teams I could possibly have. A couple things I’ve found work: I hire kind, low-ego humans. These are people who can learn, accept feedback, admit mistakes, and grow as a team. I strongly favor weird backgrounds. 61613

emily freeman @emilyfreeman.bsky.social · 30/04/2025The Democrats are a great example of what happens when you prioritize minimizing negative feedback vs. prioritizing visibility. Being visible is 80% of the battle. So what if some people don’t like you? Stop prioritizing people you’re never going to win over anyway. 1504

emily freeman @emilyfreeman.bsky.social · 22/04/2025I know this runs counter to a lot of advice but… Do not try to improve on the things you’re awful at. You’re probably always going to be bad at them. Instead focus on the things you’re good at. Rise to the absolute top at those things. The rest either doesn’t matter or can be outsourced. 7635
