No #SundayScaries when you work for yourself.

I am one of the most risk-averse people I know, and I’ve always been plagued with a scarcity mindset. Working 50+ hour weeks for minimum wage + being a victim of wage theft will do that to you (glaring at you, former news directors).

When I left the news business for the corporate world — my salary went up, but the Sunday Scaries remained.

I had to make a choice. Play it safe, stay in a career I hate, and ruin every single Sunday for the rest of my life - or woman up, quit my job, and pursue freelancing.

I went from a low-risk lifestyle to taking risks DAILY. There’s a different type of anxiety associated with my new life, but holy hell, I got my Sundays back. No one is ever taking them from me again.
