Have you ever found yourself just not engaged with your freelance business anymore, sick of the hustle and the invoice-chasing – and dreaming about taking a permanent 9-5 job? Joh Leggatt did – and in our latest episode, she talks to us about why she left her successful freelance business behind to take a full-time role with Forbes Australia.
It’s a fascinating chat in which we discuss:
- When Joh knew it was time to return to the 9-5
- The challenges of dismantling a 6-figure freelance business
- The advantages and benefits of going in-house
- The bargaining power job-seekers have right now
- How going in-house could benefit your freelance business later
- Why it’s a knowledge intensive, taking a full-time job
- How it can help you get a new niche and upskill in tools + tech
- Joh’s advice for other freelancers considering going perm
- And much more!
