Ask How do you know when your freelance business is stable enough to quit your day job?

[Edward22]

A lot of freelancers run both at the same time for months or even years before feeling confident enough to let go of their regular job. The question is, what does stable actually look like? Some people say you need to have a certain number of months of consistent income saved up, while others say it is more about having a steady flow of returning clients. There is no single rule that works for everyone. What made you feel ready to go full time, or what signs are you personally waiting for before you make that move?
