I thought I knew how to succeed in freelancing. It turns out I was missing one critical element.

As an aspiring freelance writer, I thought I knew what it took to start making money online.

I had a computer, a head full of ideas, and the right tools to start building content for clients.

Yet there was something that I quickly discovered was holding me back from finding consistent work and making a real living as a freelancer.

I was missing an online community of fellow freelancers.

It Takes a Freelancing Tribe

Many freelancers I’ve met are introverted individuals. I mean, what better profession for someone who wants to work from home in their pajamas all day, right?

But the fact is, we introverts need community just like anyone else.

In fact, I would argue that we need it even more. When you spend much of your time working alone, it’s easy to get lost in your own thoughts and spiral down a rabbit hole of self-doubt.

A freelancing community can provide the support, inspiration, and advice that we need to stay focused and successful in our businesses. But that’s not all.
