It’s Fine, I’m a Freelancer is by pro writer Lizzie Davey who aims to demystify what it’s really like to be a freelancer.
I’m diving into something I’ve been thinking about for months: is niching down still the smartest move for freelancers, or has it become our Achilles heel?
With AI evolving fast and creative work becoming increasingly commodified, I'm seeing more freelancers get replaced, undercut, or overlooked. So today, I unpack what I’m calling The Great Skill Reset, a.k.a. a shift that’s changing how clients hire, what they value, and what it means to be a resilient freelancer in 2025.
I talk about:
Why old-school niching advice doesn’t quite hold up anymore
The rise of "contextual intelligence" and consultative creatives
How to future-proof your freelance business without becoming a jack-of-all-trades
Why outcomes > outputs (and how to reposition yourself accordingly)
