Navigating freelance success course: Habits that work, stick, and help you thrive

Course information:

This comprehensive 5-week course focuses on helping you overcome the key obstacles that most established freelancers and independent professionals encounter on their business journey.

Having worked with over 100 IPSE members and business owners in recent years, life coach and wellbeing consultant Kate Horwood has identified pivotal areas where people typically get stuck – Time and energy management, resilience, wellbeing, stress management, mindset, and the critical intersection of business vision and personal fulfilment.

She’ll be sharing practical, real-world skills and straightforward strategies that go beyond the surface, making a substantial impact on the tangible results you’ll achieve in your business for sustained growth – the very same strategies that have proven successful for numerous IPSE members she has worked with.

Throughout the course, you’ll have the chance to assess your current business standing, pinpoint and resolve what’s holding you back, and you’ll emerge with some powerful new habits that will allow you to move ahead confidently on your path towards a more resilient, productive, and fulfilling freelance career.

The course is for you if you resonate with ANY one or more of the following:

• You struggle with your time and energy management.
• You identify as a procrastinator, perfectionist and/or people pleaser.
• You’d like to be able to eat better, exercise more, work smarter whilst running a successful business.
• You’re experiencing some degree of burnout.
• You’re often stressed and/or anxious.
• You feel like you’re always juggling one too many plates.
• You feel like you don’t enjoy your business enough or anymore.
• You’re not where you’d like to be with your business or your wellbeing and you’re finding it hard, if not impossible, to make effective improvements that are sustainable.

This course is suitable for those with established businesses. Whether you’re currently struggling or perhaps you would like to go to the next level in yourself and your business, these are the areas that Kate is going to be able to help you with in this course.
