Freelance Feels - Freelancing is a marathon...
It’s 18 years since I completed the London Marathon. I still get the feels - the pride of knowing what an achievement it is. For me, thinking about the marathon reminds me that I don’t run anymore and that I never found running easy. Well the second part is true for freelancing! Often it really is a slog, and I wonder why I even began. Someone once said to me, when I joked about how I had a badge for my coaching accreditation, that ‘having a badge doesn’t make you a coach’. It made me think about how, for some of us, freelancing is about the badges and medals. Certainly, I love the ‘proof’ of my running exploits in medal form. And I am proud I’ve been shortlisted for awards and as a digital woman to watch by Digital Women. If it matters to you to complete the freelance marathon and get the medal, don’t be deterred!
