This is The Do It For Yourself Podcast. Each week I sit down with someone who is doing it for themselves and chasing a dream they just couldn’t suppress. This is often speakers, entrepreneurs, or athletes. They all share one thing in common, they are overcoming challenges and never giving up. Someone who is Doing It For Themselves is not selfish in their pursuit, they are simply chasing a dream or working towards a goal because it is something THEY want to do. They are not forging down a path because society or someone is telling them it’s what they should be doing.
My guest on the podcast this week is Laura Briggs. Laura is a freelance writer who helps clients with their copy on their websites. Laura was a teacher but found it difficult to maintain a job because of her husband's career in the military. She felt even though it was a full-time position when she had a job, it would never last because they always had the chance of being relocated. Laura needed to come up with an alternative, something she could do no matter where they were living. This is when Laura began to build her writing career. We get a chance to dive deep into the early days of Laura's freelance work, to building a client base that she wants to work with after getting burnt out.
This was such a fun conversation and I really look forward to sharing it with you today.
