Do you want to get paid to write? My special guest and dear friend Abbi Perets knows pretty much everything there is to know about freelance writing, and today she’s on Free Mama Radio to let us pick her brain.
Abbi wants moms to know that they don’t have to choose between kids and career. She’s the coach and mentor that moms turn to when they want to break into freelance writing and earn great money from home on their own terms. She has a combined twenty years experience freelancing for some of the world’s biggest companies with firsthand knowledge of having five kids of her own, including one with special needs. She understands the unique challenges moms face every day, and has created programs specifically tailored to meet those challenges and empower moms all over the world to have it all.
Today Abbi is sharing the story of how she started freelance writing, and trust me, there is a lot to be learned from her. She’s also sharing her experience of getting back into writing after taking time out to care for her sick child. She took a heart-wrenching experience and turned it into a way to help other moms who were struggling to pay hospital bills and feed their families.
In Today’s Episode We Discuss:
- Abbi’s journey in freelance writing
- How you can get paid to write from home
- How she pitched to her first clients
- What qualities you need to have to be a freelancer
- The value of asking questions, even when it’s scary
- Finding formulas in writing
- Getting back into writing after taking a break from it
- How to stay motivated
- Actively seeking out joy
