When I started freelancing 10 years ago, social media was basically brand new and wasn't a part of my promotion strategy. Today, it's almost a necessity for freelancers to be on Instagram, LinkedIn, TikTok, and Facebook--but is this causing issues in the freelancing world?

I discuss the pros and cons of social media in freelancing and how it's impacted the landscape. 

Things are rough out there. Budget cuts, layoffs, fierce competition--they're all leading people to ask "is now even a good time to be a freelancer?" 

In this episode, I breakdown why now is both a good AND bad time to be a freelancer and how you can increase your chances of success if you do decide to take the plunge right now.

Does it feel like £100k has become the ultimate marker or success in the freelancing world? If you're constantly finding yourself bombarded with the six-figure freelancing narrative, you're not alone.
