As a freelancer with clients, are you generally on deadlines? Or is it work when you want? Essentially I would like to work somewhere around 3 days a week but I am not sure that projects would be able to meet deadlines that clients want. In digital agencies I have worked for, I have had to shown work done every week. And the amount of work given to me was such that I had to work the full week. If I were to do that freelancing I would certainly make more money, but I am hoping that there are jobs where deadlines are based on average around 3 days work...

Either charge a fraction of your weekly price, position yourself as part-time, or prove you can hustle. If you can get 5 days worth of what they think of a week's worth of work in 3 days, you've arbitraged the effort
