What no one tells you about being a Freelance Designer
Episode Summary
In this solo episode of Brand Your Brain, I’m discussing the over-glorification of being a freelance creative versus having a traditional job or career. I’m talking pros, cons, personal experiences and highlighting the true challenges and rewards of freelancing.
The Confession:
“Sometimes, it’s really not glorious. It’s not fun, it’s not easy, it’s not for everyone. You have to make more sacrifices than you think, and while *I’m* making the sacrifices, I think both traditional career and freelance career should be applauded – not just freelance.” Sent in by Madi Mae
Main Discussion:
- Benefits of Freelancing
- Hardships during freelancing
