I did. It's probably the easiest transition.

You just do it. You have the skills. You hear all the latest ideas. You sometimes end up in weeks long talks with a client who decides not to do a project that you're excited about. In fact, you can do those things without requiring funding.

It's a lot easier for freelancers to pivot too. In my case, I was just solving my own problem in trying to eat healthy.
