Hi. I’m Satta Sarmah Hightower, a former journalist turned freelance writer and content marketer.
Over the last 12 years, I’ve built a multi 7-figure solo business, using the storytelling skills I cultivated as a journalist to produce content for corporate clients and national publications.
I always tell people I became a freelancer by accident, but I’m now a freelancer by choice. I fell into freelancing in 2014 after back-to-back layoffs, while saddled with $55,000 in student loan debt and persistent doubts about why I had chosen a path with such career and financial instability.
More than a decade later, that “accident” has led to more time freedom, flexibility for my family, and opened the door to financial freedom.
I wrote The Forever Freelancer as a guide for those who are looking for an off-ramp from rise-and-grind culture, institutional policies, and cultural narratives that implicitly and explicitly tell us career success and happy, thriving families can’t coexist.
This book exists because I wholeheartedly believe people have the power to craft careers that better align with what they value — and what they’re worth.
