Self-Employed Dad Life

The only downside to being self-employed?
Apparently, I’ve been promoted!!!
TO
School drop-off manager
Pick-up chauffeur
Head chef (specialising in “one pot cuisine”)
Business owner or somewhere in between
Turns out, self-employment isn’t just about flexibility it’s about integration.
Work and family don’t live in separate boxes anymore, they overlap (usually around 5pm when dinner’s burning).
The apron clashes with the tie, the kids crash the calls…
But the trade-off?
Freedom, balance, and happiness through the roof!!
And best of all!! It means my wife gets to keep smashing her career while I’m right here, building mine around the life we want.
