Description

This book is an essential guide for anyone considering a portfolio career, whether you're at the start of your journey or rethinking how to structure your portfolio more effectively. Michael's deep understanding of what it takes to make this transition is clear in every chapter. He brings together practical advice, thought-provoking questions and real-life stories (including mine) to show that a portfolio career isn't just a fallback option; it's a dynamic, rewarding way to work that's increasingly relevant in today's world.

Careers are too important to leave in the hands of others.

Building a portfolio career is not a linear path, nor is it a quick fix. It requires resilience, a willingness to take risks and a commitment to lifelong learning. My journey may not be typical of a portfolio career, but it has prepared me to guide those who are ready to embrace this path. Through this book, I hope to share insights and strategies that will help you take control of your career, find work that aligns with your values and build a life that's both fulfilling and financially secure.

Making the leap to a portfolio career isn't about having all the answers from day one.

It's a journey of exploration - understanding your skills, identifying what drives you and learning how to position yourself to add value in different contexts.
