Freelancing offers a different way to approach work that gives you autonomy, flexibility and access to opportunities traditional jobs don’t offer.
In this session, you learn the exact steps to set yourself up financially, professionally and emotionally to start freelancing — whether you want a career change or a side gig to make a little extra money. This session will cover:
· How freelancing and self-employment help you bust through barriers and bias in the traditional workforce.
· The mindset that makes a successful freelancer.
· Ways to make money as a freelance writer.
· Steps to prepare your finances and your lifestyle for the shift to freelancing.
