INTENSIVE

Are you settling for less freedom and success than you deserve?

If you're still in a 9-5...

You dream about working for yourself, but fear of the unknown keeps you frozen.

You're tired of rigid schedules, office politics, and feeling like your potential is being wasted.

You keep telling yourself "someday" — but deep down, you're scared you'll look up and realize you wasted years waiting for the right moment.

If you're already freelancing...

You're landing projects — but the clients are low-paying, high-drama, or one-off gigs that leave you constantly hunting for the next job.

You feel like you're stuck on a hamster wheel of proposals, hoping for better opportunities but not sure how to actually win them.

You're craving consistency, higher rates, and dream clients who respect your time and expertise...but you don't know how to get there.

While you’re busy hoping things will magically get better...

 

Other freelancers are building six-figure businesses from anywhere in the world.

They're working 30-hour weeks with full autonomy — taking Fridays off for hobbies, slow mornings at their favorite café, or spontaneous trips to the beach.

They're paying bills without stress, investing in early retirement, and stacking wins that compound into real financial freedom. 

They're creating businesses that give them peace of mind — knowing they can always find new clients, no matter what the economy looks like.

BUT YOU ALREADY KNEW THAT.

You just haven't gotten there yet.

 

And you know what? I don’t blame you at all.
Building a real freelance career — one that gives you freedom and financial stability—is hard. It's so freaking hard, because you know how much is riding on it working out.

It’s a LOT of pressure to put yourself out there:

Creating a profile that feels "good enough."

Writing proposals that are supposed to win you dream clients.

Deciding what to charge without feeling like you’re "too expensive" or "not experienced enough."

Trying to land jobs when it feels like everyone else already has it all figured out.

 It’s no wonder you’ve hesitated to go all-in. 

 

Trying to build a freelance career on your own feels like running a marathon you didn’t train for — while everyone else seems miles ahead.

UPWORK FREELANCER AND RECRUITER TO THE RESCUE

 

Hi, I'm Kristen–


a growth strategy consultant, 6-figure freelancer, and Upwork recruiter who’s reviewed thousands of Upwork freelancer profiles and proposals behind the scenes.

I know exactly how overwhelming freelancing can feel at the start.

The second-guessing.
The "am I good enough?" moments.
The endless applications that seem to vanish into a black hole.

I also know what’s possible when you have a clear roadmap — because I’ve lived it.

From unemployed and stressed... to traveling the world, working with dream clients, and building a six-figure freelance career I absolutely love while working less with no more burnout. 


Trying to freelance without a strategy blows. 
(And trust me, I've been there.)

But when you have a clear step-by-step system — complete with proven strategies, insider tips, and real hiring insights — everything changes.

Suddenly, you're not stuck refreshing your inbox wondering what went wrong.

You're booking interviews.
Landing dream clients.
Growing your income and your confidence, month after month.

This course is everything I wish I had when I started.
And now, what took me years to learn through trial and error is yours in only a few hours.

Real-World Upwork Hiring Case Studies


See Exactly What Works (and What Doesn’t)

Want to know why most freelancers never get responses to their proposals even when they’re talented?

Inside the 6-Figure Freelancing on Upwork Intensive, you’ll also get access to 5+ hours of real-world Upwork hiring case study videos — straight from the desk of a seasoned Upwork recruiter.

 

You'll watch me dissect:

  • Which proposals immediately got passed over (and why)
  • Which profiles made me  instantly hit "invite to interview"
  • How tiny tweaks in wording, positioning, and pricing changed the outcome
  • The subtle mistakes freelancers make without even realizing it
  • The simple shifts that turn a "maybe" into a "hell yes"

No guessing. No wondering.


You'll see exactly how clients think so you can build your Upwork presence to attract and win high-paying jobs with confidence.

This isn't theory.


This is how real hiring decisions happen on Upwork, and it’s knowledge that can completely change your freelance career trajectory.

Think of it like a cheat code.

While 90% of Upwork freelancers are stuck figuring it out the hard way, you’ll already know exactly what clients want — and how to deliver it to stand out and win the best jobs.

Building a Freelance Career Can Be Simple.

 

It used to feel overwhelming. It used to feel like a guessing game.
But not anymore.

I've taken everything that slows freelancers down — the endless second-guessing, the messy profiles, the spray-and-pray proposals — and turned it into a clear, step-by-step system that gets real results.

Instead of spinning your wheels and wondering what to do next for years, you’ll move forward with confidence, and actually start landing the clients and freedom you’ve been dreaming about in weeks, not years. 

Your future self will thank you for taking this shortcut to success.

“I've landed clients, priced myself confidently, and built a freelance business I feel proud of.”

“Before taking this course, I was completely stuck — sending endless proposals on Upwork with no responses and feeling ready to give up. Kristen’s guidance completely changed my mindset and my strategy.

The real hiring case studies were eye-opening, and for the first time, freelancing finally felt simple and doable.

Since completing the course, I've landed clients, priced myself confidently, and built a freelance business I feel proud of.

I finally feel empowered, confident, and excited about my future on Upwork. I can't recommend this course enough!”

    You're finally...

Landing client interviews, contracts, and steady income with ease

Generating stable income with consistent, high-paying client offers

It’s Easy to Stay Where You Are.

 

Even when you want more.
Even when you know you’re capable of more.

It’s easy to keep tweaking your Upwork profile.
Keep sending the same proposals.
Keep working for the shitty 9-5 job you hate and telling yourself you’ll "get serious" about freelancing someday.

Because change is scary.
Taking a real chance on yourself is scary.

And staying stuck — even if it’s frustrating — can feel safer than facing the unknown.

BUT HERE'S THE THING:


The freedom, the income, the clients, the career you want...
They’re on the other side of the leap you’ve been afraid to make.

And you are so much more capable than you realize.

You’re not here to settle for scraps.
You’re not here to keep hustling and hoping.

You’re here to build a business — and a life — that actually feels good.
That supports you.
That reflects who you are and what you want out of this life. 

The opportunity is right in front of you.
The only question left is:

Are you ready to move toward it?

What a Thriving Freelance Career Really Gives You:

Fewer bad fit clients

When your profile, proposals, and interviews are aligned with your true value, you'll attract serious, high-quality clients...not tire-kickers, lowballers, or nightmare projects.

Smoother client onboarding

When you communicate your offers and process clearly, discovery calls feel easy, confident, and stress-free. (Goodbye, awkward sales convos.)

More time back in your day

With a steady flow of quality leads and repeat clients, you’re not spending hours every week scrambling for new projects. Your business runs smarter, not harder.

More money– from projects you actually love

No more saying “yes” to crappy gigs out of desperation. You get to say “hell yes” to projects that excite you — and charge what you're worth.

Total confidence in your business

Gone are the days of feeling embarrassed by your profile or proposals. You’ll show up proudly knowing you have the skills (and strategy) to win top-tier clients.

True flexibility to live life on your terms

Want to travel? Take Fridays off? Launch a new offer? Raise your rates? Work only 20 hours a week? You can! Because you’re in control of your income, your clients, and your calendar.

Peace of mind (for real)

When your freelance business is built on strategy—not hope—you finally get to rest easy.
No more “what if I can’t find another client?” panic. No more late-night worry spirals. Just steady momentum and real freedom.

It's 100% Possible to Build a 6-Figure Freelance Career, Even If...

You’re not a “salesperson” and the thought of pitching yourself makes you want to hide under a blanket.

You’ve never written a proposal before and you're pretty sure your first one might accidentally sound like a bad Tinder message. (It’s okay, bestie, we fix that!)

You’ve applied to 10 Upwork jobs and heard crickets — and you’re wondering if freelancing is even for you.

You’ve DIYed your Upwork profile a million times but still feel like it sounds "meh" instead of magnetic. (That changes now!)

You’re scared to raise your rates because you're secretly afraid no one will ever hire you again.

You don't know what a "niche" is, how to "position" yourself, or how to "sell without feeling salesy." (I’ll walk you through every step.)

This course was built for you.

(Yes, even if you feel like the "most unprepared freelancer ever." We’re about to change that.)

Don't let your dreams pass you by.

Take action now.
