Welcome, new friends, to Chaos Freelancer.

The No B.S. Guide to Working for yourself on your own terms for freelancers, small business owners & soloists! Now in Super Secret Podcast Form!

Graphic with text stating: When I first started freelancing back in 2009, and the talk came around to jobs and bosses, I had a really annoying running joke.   “My boss,” I’d say, “is SUCH a bitch.”   “But don’t you work for yourself?”  “Yep.”

Let’s Face It

WORKING FOR YOURSELF ISN’T ALWAYS EASY

True Story - in early 2021, I was actually thinking about quitting freelancing and going to work for someone else. The pandemic, homeschooling my kids, and just…everything had me about ready to jump ship. Where I would have gone, I don’t know, but “going internal” was a constant thought. I was ready to stop

Ok, ok, ok, actual true story - I still think about getting out at least once a week. Sometimes once a day. Hourly.

Like I said, Working for yourself isn’t always easy.

Since I started back in 2009 (with an ill-fated earlier attempt in 2007), I have made SO MANY MISTAKES, and I’d like to talk to you about them. I’ve also had some REALLY GOOD THINGS happen, and I’d like to talk to you about them too!

That’s where Chaos Freelancer comes in. From September - December, 2024, I’ll be experimenting with short (under 10 minute) podcast episodes every other week, focusing on topics that are coming up for me in this wild landscape of working for yourself.
