As a freelancer I took on many roles, from webmaster, to content specialist, to editor, to ghostwriter, and even personal assistant. I worked remotelty with clients from all over the world, and in person with local clients.
During this time I gained valuable skills by:
- Adapting to different work locations and environments
- Providing confidential consultation services to people from diverse backgrounds and walks of life
- Organizing virtual meetings with long-distance clients
- Implementing custom strategies and action plans to improve the lives of clients
- Overcoming roadblocks to clients’ goals through creative problem solving
- Editing and reworking hundreds of pages of prose in the client’s own voice and style
- Creating unique and engaging blog and social media content for personal lifestyle brands
- Curating public personae for cultural influencers
- Styling and designing clients’ photoshoots
- Mitigating online disputes, shutting down trolls, and running damage control
- Running all the backend WordPress and web server operations on client websites
Because of these varied skills and experiences, at the suggestion of my clients I began offering Life Coaching sessions.
