Webinar: The Anti-Hustle Method for Freelancing Freedom

May 24, 2022 Editor Event

As a freelancer, being a “one-person business” can feel stressful and exhausting—but it doesn’t need to be! If you’ve ever struggled with managing your time effectively and staying on top of your never-ending task list, this workshop will help you become the productive boss of your own life and business.

By the end of the workshop, you will:

Learn how to stop the cycle of toxic productivity and the trap of unnecessary “busy” work
Identify the productivity mistakes you’re currently making—and how to resolve them with confidence
Create a productivity action plan that promotes work-life balance, reduces overwhelm, and frees up five to 10 hours per week

This webinar is part of the Canadian Freelance Guild's Business of Freelancing series.
