Featured editor question from Rebecca Burton, rebeccaburtoneditor.com:


“I’m new to building a freelance business and am finding it hard to get work. How do I manage my feelings of doubt about my ability to find work?”


A lot about building a business comes down to confidence. There’s a cycle at play in our work – when we feel more confident we’ll be able to promote ourselves better and get more clients, which makes us feel more confident.

Those feelings of doubt don’t go away. The key is to keep taking action.

So push past the doubts and connect with more clients. In this episode, I’ll help you manage that doubt and share your message with confidence.
