Net-60 and the Reality of Creative Work

Net-60 and the Reality of Creative Work

In this new episode Kalisha Zachery and Kachelle Zachery are diving into a reality many independent creatives know all too well: the net-60 payout. Whether you’ve worked on an indie film, freelance production, or small creative project, you’ve likely encountered the experience of being paid long after the work is complete. In this episode, we unpack why net-60 payment structures exist, how delayed payouts impact creatives trying to sustain themselves, and the difficult balance between passion, professionalism, and cash flow. From independent productions to major companies, we explore the financial realities of creative labor and ask an important question: How do you stay grounded when the work moves faster than the payment?

Sisterhood and creativity continued…

In Part 2, the conversation goes deeper as we challenge the idea of whether family is automatically meant to be your built-in support system—or if purpose sometimes requires navigating misunderstanding, distance, or unexpected paths to fulfillment. Through honest reflections on partnership, creativity, and calling, Yvonne and Yolanda share what it means to build individually and collectively while protecting vision, identity, and alignment. This episode is a thoughtful exploration of ambition, sisterhood, and the reality that support doesn’t always look the way we expect—but purpose remains the assignment.
