Hello Reader, In episode 35 of the Wisepreneurs podcast, I had the pleasure of speaking with an incredibly dynamic Sue Ellson, an independent LinkedIn specialist based in Melbourne, Australia. Sue shared her fascinating journey of carving out a career as a "gigster" after leaving the corporate world. Her story and insights are especially relevant for independent professionals, particularly women over 50 who may be considering a career transition. Key Takeaways:
If you are over 50 and considering a move to independent work, Sue provides an inspiring example of what's possible with the right mindset, habits and strategies. While not a path for everyone, "gigstering" can provide stimulating work, autonomy and flexibility in the later stages of our careers. The key is continually developing our skills, networks and ability to adapt as the world of work evolves.
