There can be great freedom and empowerment in being self-employed, but it also brings its own challenges and stressors. Many workplace challenges transfer to the world of self-employment, from setting boundaries and advocating for ourselves and the value of our work to managing our time and finding objective forms of self-evaluation. On top of that, we have less access to the resources and safety nets that usually come from working for someone else. Finding the supports we need and discovering techniques that lean on our capabilities and reinforce the areas we struggle with are crucial in keeping our lives fully balanced and centered on our well-being.
