Being Freelance

Creativity is self-care - Brand Designer Hope Meng


Listen Later

Hope woke up one day to realise that she hadn’t accomplished even half of the things she’d envisioned for her career. Motivated to recover from the low-grade depression she’d been in, she began making time for creativity again.

Hope set out to find more purpose and meaning in her work, to connect with other creatives, and to explore her own interests and creative projects. She shares her story with Steve,  from bricks-and-mortar business owner to world-traveller; to mum of two and now brand designer with plenty of creative side projects on the go.

 

This episode is sponsored by the very first Being Freelance course!

Steve’s rolled up everything he’s learnt from over 6 years of conversations with more than 240 freelancers.

There’s no ‘one way’ to be a successful freelancer, but this course will help you avoid the many mistakes that most of us make. Learn from our experiences.

Find out more about the course.
