Freedom Found Copywriter Podcast | Business & Marketing Strategy for the Copywriting Industry

If your copywriting business or freelance career has felt like it’s been in a transition season for months (or years!) and nothing's actually changed—you're not transitioning anymore. You're probably just stuck on a plateau. And it's not a reflection of your skills or credentials as a copywriter. It's because you're waiting to be ready, trying to do it alone, or preparing as a form of procrastination instead of taking decisive action. If that sounds like you, copywriter, this episode is going to show you how to finally move forward.   *This is Part 5 of The Shift Series—a 6-part mini-series on moving through transition instead of staying stuck in it. Tap ‘PLAY’ to listen now. Tune in To Learn: * The honest difference between being stuck and being in transition (and how to diagnose where you really are) * The three reasons you've been stuck so long: waiting to be ready, doing it alone, and preparing instead of acting * Why "ready" never comes—and why moving is HOW you get ready * What it actually takes to get unstuck: start NOW, change your environment immediately, get support   **********   Like this show?

Not all proximity is created equal. You can be surrounded by people and still feel alone in your transition. You can have a network and still not get what you need. Because what matters isn't just BEING around people—it's WHO you're around. And during transition, you need specific types of relationships that actually help you become.   This is Part 4 of The Shift Series—a 6-part mini-series on building the relationships as a female copywriter that support your becoming.   >> Press ‘PLAY’ to listen now <<   In this episode, you’ll learn: * Why comfortable proximity doesn't create growth (it creates stagnation) * The four types of relationships you need during transition: people who challenge you, share perspectives, collaborate with you, and reflect your next version * What makes friendships feel expansive vs. draining * How to actually find these relationships (and why you have to be intentional) * Why I created Juno—the space I looked for for years and couldn't find   Ready to surround yourself with the right community of copywriters?

Being in a transition season as a copywriting business owner isn't just about building something new—it's about releasing something old. The version of you that got you here? She has to go. Not because she wasn't good enough, but because you can't become someone new while clinging to who you were. And that takes a kind of courage most of us aren't prepared for.   In this episode, we're covering: * Why transition is actually identity work (not just a strategy problem) * What it means to undo who you've become in a beautiful collection of changes to become who you want to be * Why you can't hold onto the old version while stepping into the new one (and what happens when you try) * The fears that keep us clinging to who we were (losing yourself, outgrowing people, being too much) * How identity transformation actually happens (new experiences, mirrors, practice)   This is Episode 3 of The Shift Series—a 6-part mini-series on navigating the gap between who you've been and who you're becoming. >> PRESS PLAY TO LISTEN NOW << Join The Copy Classroom Newsletter at krystlechurch.com/copyclassroom [http://krystlechurch.com/copyclassroom] for weekly behind-the-scenes insights on building a business that supports who you're becoming (not just who you've been).   **********   Like this show?

You can have the best strategy, work the hardest, and be completely committed to your growth—but if your environment isn't supporting the transformation you're trying to make, you're going to stay stuck. Because transition isn't a strategy problem. It's an *environment* problem.   In this episode, we're covering: * The truth about becoming: you can't create new beliefs in old environments * Why you literally cannot step into a new season while you're still in your old environment * What happens when you try to become someone new in a space that only knows the old you * How the women who move through transition fastest approach their environment differently This is Part 2 of The Shift Series—a 6-part mini-series on what it really takes to move from where you are to where you want to be.   >> LISTEN TO THE EPISODE NOW <<   Not on my email list yet?

I've been in a transition season for two years. And for most of that time, I kept asking myself the same question: "Why is this taking so long?" If you've been feeling restless in your business, like you've outgrown what you've built but can't quite reach what's next—this episode is for you.   Tune in To Learn: * The emotional and logistical signs you're in a transition season (and why recognizing them changes everything) * Why transition seasons feel so lonely—and why it's hard to talk about with people who aren't in one themselves * What it actually means to live in the gap between who you were and who you're becoming * Why the discomfort you're feeling isn't failure—it's growth * What's possible on the other side of transition (and why it's worth staying in the gap) This is Episode 1 of The Shift Series—a 6-part mini-series on what it really takes to move from where you are to where you want to be.   >> Pres 'Play' Now   Not getting The Copy Classroom Newsletter yet?
