What do you do when your inbox goes quiet and the client work that once filled your calendar suddenly disappears?

For many freelance medical writers—especially those transitioning into the CME space—quiet seasons can feel like failure. But what if those fallow periods are actually the most fertile ground for growth? In this conversation with seasoned writer Addie Nagy, we explore how to reframe slow seasons, rebuild confidence, and manage client relationships with steadiness and purpose.

You’ll learn how to

  • Reimagine client relationships as a dialogue rather than a power struggle so collaboration replaces anxiety.
  • Turn information gaps and slow communication into opportunities for curiosity, clarity, and boundary-setting.
  • Use “fallow time” to strengthen business foundations, refresh systems, and cultivate the mindset shift from freelancer to business owner.

Press play to learn how to transform uncertainty into strategy and make every season of your freelance CME writing business work for you.
