    LWP Business of Writing Ep. 03 - Break out of a 'broke freelancer' mindset

    Ever felt stuck in survival mode? You're not alone—and you don’t have to stay there. In this episode, I break down what I’m calling freelance poverty thinking and how to shift into a more strategic, sustainable mindset as a freelance writer. Hear tips and questions to ask yourself to shift out of a “grind or die” mindset and into something more realistic, more sustainable, and more aligned with how you want to live. You’ll also hear two stories from the road to full-time freelancing: one about the time I burnt out on low-paying content work, and another about a colleague who finally gave herself permission to quit the grind and build a calmer, more aligned freelance life. If you’re ready to stop scrambling and start leading a focused freelancing life, this is your mindset reset. 🎧 Listen in—and get more actionable advice in the companion blog post at LiveWritePublish.com (link goes straight to the post!) 📩 Did you get value from this episode?
