Being Freelance

When Jess Bruno left her corporate job in marketing, to help with managing her chronic illness - she had no idea freelancing was even an option. It was her mum that made her realise all the free marketing advice she was giving to her friends should be worth paying for.The next time they called asking for help, it would cost £25.Since then, Jess has built a six-figure freelancer business.And what's more, she's built it on her terms: around her health, around surgeries, around grief. The past five years has packed in a lot for Jess. And we pack a lot into this episode:- How chronic illness shaped her business model- Rebuilding from grief, surgery and burnout — twice- How she grew her business without posting perfect content- The shift from doing it all to coaching and strategy- Why her content converts, even with 30 likes a post- What Netwerking is, and why it’s worth every penny (even in the red)- How she’s planning a sustainable new version of her businessIt’s bold, honest and brilliant — just like Jess.--Hos
