Not every path moves in a straight line. Not every progression is a ladder. Say hello to the alternative path. Say hello to your portfolio career.
Portfolio work can totally transform your life, but we get that it’s not for everyone. That’s where our Intro to Portfolio Careers workshop comes in!
Join us for an immersive deep-dive into all the benefits and challenges of portfolio work.
Portfolio careers are shaped around your passions, interests and expertise. No two look the same, and it can be hard to know where to start when you’re working with a blank canvas.
That’s why we find it helpful to bucket all the different styles into these four categories.
Multi-hyphenate
You juggle a diverse mix of unrelated projects (often at the same time)
Side hustler
You have passion projects that earn you money outside of your main job
Freelancer
You’re self employed and work on a project or contract basis
Focused expert
Your expertise is highly specialised and you monetise it in lots of ways
We’ve got loads of resources to help you figure out your next step and start building your very own thriving portfolio career.
