When the going gets tough, the tough get going! But how do they keep going? This is the million-dollar question that we are going to consider at this short session.
Even though we know setbacks are a normal part of freelance life - through no fault of our own, we don't always get that role, gig or commission we desperately want; the best of plans can go awry and we sometimes don't get the rewards we think we deserve - it can sometimes be difficult to bounce back.
This session will give you some useful strategies and tips to help you deal with setbacks in more constructive and less destructive ways.
