“Doing what you love on your own terms sounds amazing—until you actually have to manage it all by yourself.”
Working for yourself as a designer, writer, creator, or photographer sounds like the dream. You get to set your own hours and choose your own projects. But what does a normal day actually look like when you don't have a manager telling you what to do?
Choosing a freelance or solo path instead of a standard 9-to-5 gives you incredible freedom, but it also means you become your own boss, assistant, accountant, and IT department all at once. If you want to balance multiple passions without burning out, you need practical skills that school doesn't teach you.
Figure Out & Mingle is a casual space to look at the real skills you need to survive on your own, work through common everyday challenges with peers, and connect with people who share your mindset.
Come figure out what it actually takes to run your own day-to-day, test your problem-solving skills against real situations, and meet people trying to build the same lifestyle.
