I’ve been freelancing for a while now, and it got me thinking if freelancing were a vegan meal, would it actually be nourishing, or just one of those pricey salads that leaves you hungry an hour later? On one hand, you have the freedom to choose your projects and set your own pace, which feels like a wholesome, balanced plate. But then there are the dry spells and unpredictable income that can make it seem more like a bland, overpriced dish with no real substance. For those of you who’ve been in this space, what’s your take? Does freelancing truly satisfy in the long run, or does it often fall short of expectations?
