08/29/23 • 12 min
Hi there babe! Which of these sounds more like you: You’re a fierce freelancer with iron-strong boundaries set around your free time so that you can do the things you love, OR that you’re a busy business owner who’s rushing around working all the hours under the sun, cramming in client work to get everything done? I know which one I want to be! So in this episode of Fiercely Freelance, I’m going to tell you about designing your Dream Schedule to ditch the dashing.
I explain why you might have weird feelings about trying to work fewer hours (hello, bullsh*t corporate culture nonsense). Then I ask you a few key questions to get you thinking about how you’d like to spend your time at work and outside of work. You’ll hear me introduce my Dream Schedule time management theory that lets you focus on you first and your freelance business after.
If you want to learn more about redefining your schedule and making your time work for you, then book a FREE Offer Clarity Call with me here. I can’t wait to chat with you!

Real Talk: These 4 Mindset Blocks are Slowing Your Growth
Hi there my love! In this episode of Fiercely Freelance, I’m taking a step back from all the strategy stuff and looking at the other key element of your freelance business: you. Get ready to go deep into the mindset work as I walk you through the 4 mental blocks you might have which will hold you back from having the business you want.
I go through the 4 very common mindset blocks that I see in freelancers that affect how they run their business. I’ll be unpacking the subconscious fears and doubts you might experience around money, your self-worth and your relationship with your clients. If any of these mindset blocks sound like you, then first things first, you’re not alone! You can change your mindset and being aware of your mindset issues is the first step in correcting them ❤️
Thanks for sticking with me through this episode, I know it was a heavy one! If you learnt something from Fiercely Freelance and are enjoying listening along, then it would be amazing if you could type me out a quick review. It’s so motivating to me to get your feedback! Thanks babe! 💜

[1:09] Hey babe, thanks for joining me! I’m talking about the mindset blocks that might be holding you back
[2:15] Block #1: You’re not good enough to charge more money
[4:20] Block #2: You’re not experienced enough
[6:20] Block #3: Saying ‘No’ means that you’re being a b*tch
[8:48] Block #4: You’re always thinking about the worst-case scenario
[11:47] If you’re dealing with these mindset blocks, you’re not alone
[13:40] Got feedback for me? I want to hear it!
