So excited to start this week with #freelancewisdom tailor made for our community from @ilanagriffo, designer, illustrator, teacher, mother, and now author of #MindYourBusiness. bit.ly/2I3t5Is
One thing @hallonatcarroll wish she knew when she was starting out: That it was ok to say no, sooner. I know it's super scary to say no to projects... but I feel ultimately, having a scarcity mindset...really cost me opportunities to grow further, sooner. bit.ly/2Fz84UC

We’re returning to Australia this week to chat with #CreativeLadyDirectory member Nat Carroll. Nat is an art director, graphic designer, and illustrator with loads of wisdom including tips on investing in your business and saying no to projects sooner bit.ly/2Fz84UC
In the world of social media, we don't think we can share this sentiment enough. We are all for lifting each other up and pushing ourselves to be better. Happy #freelance Friday ladies! Thank you to Timia Lewis for this week's #wisdom bit.ly/2TG7gWB
Absolutely loving Timia Lewis' detailed answer to how she continues to attract her ideal clients. It's all about her #portfolio. Find a taste of how she decides what to include below http://and get the full answer and more #wisdom here: bit.ly/2TG7gWB
What can't you live without when working on a #freelanceproject? For Timia Lewis it's her sketchbook: It’s where I start writing about my project, where I go to put my designs, and where I return when I’m stumped on a problem. bit.ly/2TG7gWB #graphicdesign

Loving this list of why Timia Lewis transitioned quickly from firm work to freelance work: "I missed being able to talk to my clients; I missed being able to say no to projects that weren’t the right fit for me; and I missed being able to work every single part of a project."
