How I turned a rocky start into my best year yet

Hi Reader, Happy Friday! When was the last time you celebrated a project you were proud of? Creative fulfillment isn’t just about doing the work—it’s about acknowledging the wins. Finished a tough project? Celebrate. Landed a client? Celebrate. Learned a new skill? Celebrate. Give yourself permission to be proud. You’ve earned it. P.S. This week on Instagram, I shared some of the scripts I use to manage boundaries with clients. See them here. Here's what I've been up to this week work-wise: 👉...

Hi Reader, Happy Friday! I don't know about you, but I'm always under the false illusion that this time of year is quiet... and yet, it's SO busy right now. In the past week alone, I've had 4 new client enquiries. I'm hopeful that this means things are looking up for 2025 🤞 P.S. This week on Instagram, I posted a "day in the life" video, where you can see what I worked on and got up to. Watch it here.

Hi Reader, Happy Friday! Big news 🎉 I'm launching The Promo Playbook v2.0 on Monday for the final time this year. If you want to get in on this cohort and start 2025 with a promo strategy that attracts the kind of clients you've always wanted to work with, get yourself on the waitlist.

Hi Reader, Happy Friday! It's been an exciting week. I finally set up some Facebook/Instagram ads, I joined a "fireside" chat with Sarah Greesonbach, Jenni Gritters, and Stacy Corneau (watch it back here), and I launched the new Freelance Magic brand on Instagram.

Hi Reader, Happy Friday! I hope you've had a great two weeks. I'm back from sipping cocktails on a Greek beach and I'm pumped for everything I've got coming up over the next couple of months (except, obviously, reinstating the bathroom ceiling which still isn't up). P.S. This week on LinkedIn, I spoke a bit about how I went from 0-10,000 followers over the past two years. See it here. ALSO. I'm doing a fireside freelance chat with Sarah Greensonbach, Stacy Corneau, and Jenny Gritters next...

Hi Reader, Happy Friday! Just to get the accountability out of the way: I did not reattach my bathroom ceiling last weekend. But I did make great headway with the Freelance Magic rebrand. I'm in the process of making a ton of new content (mostly for Instagram, so make sure you give me a follow there), but also for the podcast and blog. I've got SO MUCH planned for the next few months, including relaunching The Promo Playbook, launching an upgraded, even better version of Workflow Wizard, and...

Hi Reader, Happy Friday! I've been speaking to a lot of freelancers this week while I finalise the remaining chapters of my book for pro freelancers. It's been fun and inspiring and, most of all, incredibly thought-provoking. Excuse me while I sit in a dark room and recover this weekend. Just kidding, I'm finally re-attaching my bathroom ceiling 🎉 P.S. This week on Instagram I posted about how it's not enough to have talent as a freelancer (sad face). Watch it here. Anyway, here's what I've...

Hi Reader, Happy Friday! Where has September gone?! This month has been crazy busy and October isn't looking like it's going to ease up. Here's hoping for a quieter November and December?! P.S. This week on Instagram I posted about the eternal freelance struggle of having either too much work or not enough work. Watch it here. Anyway, here's what I've been up to this week work-wise: 👉 I wrote 3 pieces for clients (including Salsify and a WFM tool) 👉 I refreshed 1 piece for Shopify 👉 I only...
