Thu, 14 May 2009 14:28:33 +0000 http://soloprpro.com/?p=502#comment-400 Nice post; really useful info. The second point in the "challenges" section really resonates. I recently turned down a lucrative contract with a financial services company who appeared more slimy each time we met to discuss their needs. My wallet told me, "yes" but my gut screamed, "no way!". It was a tough call, but I turned it down. Two months later, they've been shut down. So glad my name was not tied to theirs. Note: Link to Jen's blog doesn't work... Nice post; really useful info.

I'm considering going solo part-time to spend more time as a mommy and less time in the craziness that is my work life. This was really helpful. I look forward to future posts. @kescovedo <abbr><em>Kristen Escovedo’s last blog post..<a href="http://themissinformation.wordpress.com/2009/05/06/the-mommy-pull/" rel="nofollow">The Mommy Pull</a></em></abbr> Thanks for sharing Jen’s experience.
