Barbora the, Freelance Writer from Prague welcomes you.

I am a freelance writer from Prague.

We can all make the world a little bit better by doing what we do best and remembering who we're doing it for. That's why I write for clients, readers, and people.

Thus, I do my share in making the world a better place, I write.

I write about the evil of social media and the dangers of our dopamine culture.

I write about the shrew in our heads that screams all those shoulds and musts, and cannots. And inspire you to tame her.

I write for women and mothers who struggle to get the lives and careers of their choice.

I write about our society, which seems to have taken a wrong turn at some point. And I write from the point of view of a Central European with a different historical experience than most of the guys here.

I write fiction and poetry because playing with words is my livelihood, passion, and life.

I have two kids (ages 6 and 3). I started a copywriting business three years ago after many years of a university career in history. 

The freelance world gives me enough freedom not to miss the special moments with my kids. But it is challenging.

It has not always been a bed of orchids. As someone who overcame an anxiety disorder, I have had more than just a few bad moments in past years. And I cried and wanted to give up so many times.

As a mother, I feel like I should sacrifice my dreams and my ambitions and just strive to make the family happy.

I felt terrible finding a nanny to babysit my toddler for a few hours a week because the university offered me a chance to teach. We did not need the money; I could have stayed home. But I would not let the opportunity pass.

And I felt terrible for that.

Because a good mother, the perfect mother, stays home as long as she can, right?

Sounds familiar?

Because you can have it, with or without kids, you don´t have to choose between a family and a career.
