Writer Shea Karssing

Shea was changing jobs every couple of years. Boredom setting in again.
Taking freelance projects on the side to keep things interesting, she eventually realised she didn’t need a ‘job’ after all.

Building a business without the help of social media, growing a network on a one-on-one basis. Now the freelancing side hustle has firmly become the main income. Boredom banished thanks to Shea being ‘niche resistant’. Her flexibility has become her calling card - it keeps her interested, learning, and happy - keeps her a freelancer.
