You can write. Now let's build the career to match.
1:1 support for new(ish) and early-career freelance writers and creatives who are ready to stop winging it and start building something real.
The bit nobody tells you
Being good at writing is one thing.
Being good at being a freelancer is something else entirely.
Finding your niche.
Building your confidence.
Figuring out what to charge.
Working out how to get clients.
(Seriously, that last one is something almost everyone struggles with.)
As someone who’s been there, it can be exhausting.
And it can take years to figure out on your own — but what if there was a shortcut?
Meet your mentor
Hey, I’m Rachel.
And I have a feeling I’ve been where you are now.
Ten years ago I was a baby freelancer, staring at a blank page, wondering how on earth I was going to make my dream of having my own freelance business a reality.
Now, I work with clients around the globe, writing, editing and strategising, working in a way that suits me and to my own schedule.
But, I made some massive mistakes along the way. Like, super annoying mistakes. I didn’t know how to promote my work. I undercharged, I undersold, and I spent years lacking confidence and direction.
Over the years (and thanks to my own experience of being mentored by other successful freelancers), I learned how to work (and find work) in a way that works for me — now I’d love to help you do the same.

Pre-call Questionnaire
Before we speak, you’ll fill in a short form about where you’re at: what you write, who you’ve worked with so far, and what’s going well (or really isn’t).
It means we can skip the small talk and get straight to the useful stuff. (Brutal honesty encouraged. I’ve heard it all, and probably done most of it.)
45-Minute call
This is the main event. We’ll dig into whatever’s holding you back most, whether that’s finding your niche, setting rates you’re not quietly embarrassed by or working out where your next client is coming from.
You’ll leave with a clear, realistic plan, not just a vague feeling that you “should probably post more”.
Follow-Up
Two weeks later, I’ll check in by email to see how you’re getting on. We’ll look at what’s worked, what’s stalled and what needs a tweak.
Because the plan is the easy bit… actually doing it is where most of us get stuck. (Think of it as a friendly nudge, not a telling-off.)
