Episode 60: Dealing with Sexual Harassment and Chauvinistic and Patronising Clients

A Little Bird Told Me Freelance Writing Podcast

It's an unfortunate truth that freelancers can be subject to oppressive behaviours from the clients they work with. Women, as well as members of minority groups, can be particularly at risk of being treated with a lack of respect or even downright abuse, especially if they work in traditionally male-dominated areas. In this podcast episode, Lorrie and Philippa discuss how freelancers can recognise when they are being treated inappropriately, and what they can do when it happens.
