Freelancing isn’t for everyone. In theory picking and choosing projects, making your own schedule and setting your own rates sounds great. But the reality of freelance can be littered with lack of work and slow days that can lead to a strain on your income.
Personally, I enjoy the freedom of being a freelance publicist, but there are challenges that people often don’t realize. These

I love my job, but I have one big complaint about the work I do. It’s unhealthy. And by that I mean I sit in front of my computer for hours each day which drains my energy and allows little opportunity to move around and get my blood flowing.

I have been thinking a lot about my office space lately. I’m not the type of person that can work productively from home so about three years ago I joined a local coworking space. It helped me differentiate between work and home life by providing a dedicated where and when for work. It also gave me human interaction, which is very important to me. I have

I have had this post on my to do list for a few weeks now. Everyday, I promise myself that I am going to write a “What’s Up with Glam?” entry, but then it never gets done. There are a variety of reasons why I haven’t been writing much about Glam lately.
Partially I have been putting off this post because I don’t actually know what to write. For some reason, I have a hard time talking about Glamtrepreneur. I feel like the cause is very close to my heart, so I don’t like sharing it with people. I know,

July 31, 2014 by Rebekah in 3 Things HerRoom wasn’t Tomima Edmark’s first entrepreneurial endeavor. In fact, she is the inventor of TopsyTail, the wildly successful women’s hair accessory that made $150 million in revenue.
When Tomima decided to get into the lingerie business, she made it her mission to learn everything she possibly could. She learned from design teams, manufacturers and consumers. Now, she probably knows more than she wants to about the complex engineering that goes into designing

It’s hard to believe it’s already the end of July and school will be starting soon. With the start of the new school year come the applications for fall internships.
I have mixed feelings about internships. On the one hand, I wouldn’t be where I am today without my internships. They gave me real world experience and the insight I needed to start my own business. Without

A business woman wearing suits. It was always about the clothes for me.
