The Happy Freelancer

Cheryl A Clarke

I quit my job and started a freelancing business 4 years ago. I have lived in Lisbon, Milan, Dorset and then found my roots in Scotland. I brought a little flat in Linlithgow, a beautiful little town halfway between Edinburgh and Glasgow where both sides of my family are from. I work in SEO & Copywriting whilst designing a freedom lifestyle that allows me to paint, drum and explore a more spiritual centred life connected to nature. The Happy Freelancer is a space for me to be creative, to share what I get up to in my freelancing business & outside of it. And a space for others to discover different perspectives about what becoming a freelancer can offer. I hope to encourage those on the fence about quitting their job, to follow their heart & create a freedom-based lifestyle more in tune with who they are.
