Teacher to Freelancer: Career Pivots & Creative Courage with Scott Gordon | The Chatty Freelancer22 Jul37 min

Scott Gordon is a pure great example of how no matter where you are in your career, you can always decide to change where you are headed.

From being a full-time secondary school teacher for 15 years to now a brand designer and founder of Pure Good Graphics, Scott joins me for a chat about career pivots, creative courage, and why sometimes you just need to do it before you are ready.

We chat about his unconventional journey into freelancing, how learning on the job can be the best, and the importance of having a good support system around you.

This is such a refreshing, laughter filled conversation about transferable skills, confidence, self-motivation, and how it is never too late to change your story.

If you've ever thought about a career change and wondered how to carve out that path for yourself, I think you'll get a lot from this one.
