Sarah Townsend has spent 26 years as a freelance copywriter helping other people say exactly the right thing. She's written a bestselling guide to self-employment, sold books in 29 countries, and built her entire career around getting words right. She also has ADHD, still switches productivity systems mid-project, and has "learn to cook quinoa" on her bucket list.

She's one of us.


What You'll Learn:

  • The "Do, Delegate, Delay, or Ditch" framework she uses instead of the Eisenhower Matrix, and why it works better for brains that need action words, not categories
  • Why she went five weeks without posting on LinkedIn and considers it the right call
  • The moment she stopped thinking "I can't afford to outsource" and started thinking "I can't afford not to"
  • How her 60 before 60 bucket list works: firewalk, helicopter ride, rugby match redemption, and yes, eating a prawn (verdict: "still reminds me of maggots")
  • What 26 years of freelancing actually looks like vs. what the hustle-bro crowd posts about
