Social and Intellectual Wellness For Freelance Editors

Welcome to our fourth and final episode in our wellness for editors series! In this episode of The Modern Editor Podcast, we’re talking all about social and intellectual wellness.

There’s a lot to mull over in this episode, including the difficulty of making friends as an adult, cultivating critical thinking skills, and why you shouldn’t outsource your brain.

As always, this episode could bring up some emotions. Please take what works for you and leave the rest. Give these concepts time to sink in so you can apply them to your life in phases rather than all at once.
