A little reminder that freelancers are humans, too. ❤️
This freelancer is moving apartments next week, and not all stress comes from work.
After a year of amazing clients, projects, and even winning Contra hackathons that helped make this new chapter possible, it feels like a lot is changing at once. I'm scared, but happy.
And right after the move, I’m off to Europe to visit Christmas markets, something I’ve dreamed about for years. 🎄
So I probably won’t be as available as usual for a little while, and I’m learning to be okay with that.
Sometimes growth looks like new projects. Sometimes it looks like a new home, a long-awaited trip, and making room for life outside your laptop.
I collaborated as a Staff Product Designer on Homebase, working through the Hakuna studio. I contributed to designing experiences for a workforce management platform, focusing on modules such as employee scheduling and payroll to make everyday tasks clearer and easier to manage. 👉 https://www.joinhomebase.com/
Been freelancing on Contra and building a tool for freelancers at the same time lol.
It's called ProposalForge. You give it a client brief and your rate and it drafts the proposal, and I use it on my own drafts too.
It's live now and free to try (3 proposals, no card). The video shows a free checker I made along the way that marks the phrases that make a proposal sound like ChatGPT. No sign-in: proposalforge.site/check
I'm trying to see where people actually get stuck. What part of writing a proposal takes you the longest? The opening, scoping and pricing, or just getting started?
