    Women Independent Contractors are Physically and Emotionally Healthier

    June 12, 2025 // One benefit of no longer being pigeonholed into traditional work is time to pursue deeper social interactions that do not involve vocation. I found it exhilarating to be free to pursue civic interactions through Meetups and chambers of commerce, as well as deeper relationships through the church. Because I am now able to craft my work around my schedule, rather than the other way around, I have regularly participated in women’s groups and Bible studies that meet in the mornings (my preferred time). These interactions are a huge boost to my mental and spiritual well-being. Having things to look forward to is a big part of this.
