The other freelancers in my journalism cohort and I started meeting monthly to share leads and support each other but it's become this weird performance where everyone pretends their work is going great and we've stopped talking about the real struggles. I want the community but I don't know if anyone else is willing to be honest about how hard this actually is or if we're just networking now.
More people experience this than they realize.
Your group of freelancers pretends everything's great and won't admit how hard the work really is.
