No more guessing - find your focus instead.

Published about 1 month ago • 1 min read

👋 Hi Reader

Freelancing gets easier when you know who you are.
​

When I first started freelancing as a UX Designer, I thought I had to fit into a box - minimal, slick and corporate. Not me at all.
​

And this made it impossible to find clients. I had no idea how to even start a conversation, let alone sell to them.
​

But then, after taking steps to find my focus it all changed.​
​

Now, 4 years later, I work with clients that I enjoy speaking to, on projects that get me excited.

​

And you can too...

​

I’ve turned that exact process into a mini-workshop to help freelance designers do the same.

​

In this workshop, you’ll learn how to:

​

✅ Understand your unique perspective as a designer

✅ Find clients who need what you bring to the table

✅ Present your services in a way that’s easy to sell
​

If you’re feeling stuck or overwhelmed, this is a simple, action-focused way to get moving again. It's short, practical and only €27.
​

You can work through it in an afternoon and start taking intentional action straight away.

​

The first 5 buyers get a free clarity call too - so get in quick!

​

​

If you have any questions, reply to this email.

Until next time, have a wonderful week!

P.S - Here's baby me trying to be Steve Jobs back in the days when my business was NOT aligned with who I was! 😂

👋 Hi Reader Recently someone booked a discovery call with me. And when I read the responses to the pre-call questions, I almost cancelled. There were a lot of specific instructions. And a tight deadline. I could already feel that this project could be a nightmare… But I thought I’d give the call a go anyway - I could always say no. On the call, they seemed kind - stressed, but reasonable. So I decided to gently set some boundaries and explain that while I absolutely respect her input, she...

👋 Hi Reader If you’ve felt stuck or uninspired in your business lately - you’re not behind. You’re not doing it wrong. And no, you don’t need to burn it all down...
