Hi, I’m currently unhappy at my current FT job and looking to go freelance with 4 yrs exp. Seeking any advice about how to transition /how much more prod coord exp one needs before being a producer.

At your level, it’s very difficult to get freelance opportunities that will help you further your experience. I’d suggest looking for another full time job instead, where you can continue to expand with different types of projects. And hopefully be happier!

Only a general suggestion: have a minimum of three months expenses saved, it will make it way less stressful. Best of luck!

Thank you!

Agree with EP1. Until you’re able to take on full ups without any (or with minimal) oversight, the freelance game is going to be tough. Try a different agency to see if that helps you. Work at a big agency now? Try a small one. You’ll get your hands on bigger projects faster than you would at a big agency.

I’m having a really hard time with my changing body. 13 weeks, I don’t have too many bad side effects of pregnancy or anything so I consider myself lucky (no nausea ever etc) but I’m depressed at work, my skin is completely broken out and showing new broken face capillaries, and I’m not showing a bump yet so I just feel fat and big. I don’t know where this “glow” is but I look in the mirror and literally am grappling with not recognizing myself :( it’s been impossible to find any clothes too.

I’m currently at a medium sized tech startup. I was interviewing for a role that would be a bump in pay and title at a multinational public F50 company. At first, the hiring manager and head of legal were very complementary about my experience. Almost too much so. After a week of interviews with the team (softball-esq), I was informed that if I wanted to join, they would bring me on at a lower title. I’m not sure about comp yet. But if comp is still an increase + experience at a public..

My husband just sent in 150$ to his cousin, whose friend who was in need. I keep getting requests for help with charities, go fund me, school pta etc. I am not opposed to helping out when I can, but sometimes there are 5/6 a month. The 150$ really bugs me. It’s not the amount he sent (I would have preferred 50$). But it’s the fact that he didn’t consult me in the amount. He apologized but I am now wondering if I am too cheap.
