Hey freelancers, do you have any tips for beating loneliness/isolation?
I started working freelance while I was on furlough last year and then quit my job to go full time freelance. I currently work from home and love being my own boss and helping clients achieve their dreams. I do, however, find myself missing working in a team sometimes - whether that be problem solving, helping, or just general chats and bants.
I mainly do fashion design (including all aspects such as design, pattern cutting, sampling so need decent amount of space and access to my machinery), admin work and some website design (all on my laptop).
I've contemplated signing up for a co-working space to work at 2-3 days a week or saving up for a studio space, but would also love to hear other ideas.
If you are in a similar boat or further along in your freelancing career, I would love to hear your thoughts on this issue. :)

- Perhaps join Freelancing Females or another freelance network, and suggest IRL meet-ups.Equally now we are able to socialise indoors, perhaps invite a freelancer friend over or someone who’s perm but can WFH, so you have company ☺️
- Maybe you can find something new , a new innovation , something unique
