The former website Elance is one such example. For a new freelancer trying to build up a portfolio, […]
Read MoreAs a copywriter, it’s important to understand modern business needs and how the internet can help. I’ve been reading a lot about content creation and repurposing and have found the following articles helpful. I’m still learning, so if you have any suggestions that you think I should read, please send them over! Kim Garst – Come up with 50 Content […]
Read MoreThought Leader can sound both exciting and vague, like a meaningless title bestowed on a senior executive or someone who’s mastered the newest social media platform. But perhaps thought leaders are people we want to know about, listen to, emulate and be inspired by, and can be found in all walks of life. The Thought Leadership Lab says this: “Thought […]
Read MoreWell, I’ve made it to Day 10! Writing 200+ words isn’t hard for me, but even though I haven’t been rushed off my feet, posting consistently is a commitment. I’d love to know how many others have got to today as well. This blog post is in response to Natalie’s 10 Day Freedom Plan Blog Challenge Day 10 Favourite Freedom […]
Read MoreI thought today’s video asked a really good question – if you want to get location independence right, how will you balance work and play? I’m having a mini test-run when my husband and I are in Glasgow for a couple of days next month (for his work) and possibly in France at the end of the month. As I’ve […]

Read MoreToday’s video about procrastination and overwhelm really resonated with me. I’ve done a LOT of reading over the last year to learn more about copywriting as a business, content marketing, social media, technology and location independence. I’ve definitely suffered from overwhelm more than once from trying to cram in information. I’m also guilty of procrastination, which I’ve touched on in […]
Read MoreI need a tribe! This is the topic I’ve been looking forward to, because I know I need to spend time virtually or face to face with like-minded people and create a tribe. I’m lucky that my parents & husband are fully supportive of my goal for a freedom business, but because they’re not immersed in this world they don’t […]
Read MoreSo today’s challenge – set yourself a daily success plan – concerned me slightly! I’m not great at disciplining myself and being consistent about what I do every day, although I’m aware that it’s really helpful to be organised. I think I’ve said before that my workload at the minute varies, so it’s hard to plan when I’ll do things. […]
Read MoreFor Day 4 of the blog challenge, we’ve been asked to identify our superpower (or superpowers), things that we’re good at. This is an incredibly valuable exercise that I would recommend to anyone, particularly if you want to be inspired to make a change. The first time I did this, when I was unhappy about my working life, my single […]
