Working for yourself is exciting! I wouldn’t have it any other way. But I’ve had to learn—largely through trial and error, and lots of lost money—how to speak up for myself when no one else will as a self-employed person. I’ll share everything I’ve learned, and the tools and skills I’ve cultivated to get paid and paid well.
I started Consent Wizardry at the start of the pandemic out of my childhood bedroom. I’ve learned a lot in 5 years, from setting my rates and negotiating, to clarifying my offers, to being realistic about my capacity so I can be selective about the projects I take on. I’ve learned how to identify and ask for what I want in both micro (project by project) and macro (big-picture goal-setting) instances; support myself through challenging conversations about money, time, and energy; and set boundaries to avoid resentment. I’ve also learned that clear boundaries are extra important when I’m bartering or working for free. I look forward to sharing everything I’ve learned with you and helping you avoid the mistakes I made, while empowering you to work for yourself at the highest caliber.
