b"In the second part of my conversation with Nathalie Ross, we discussed what brought her to the regulatory affairs domain and I asked her to describe in more detail what the job entails and what the day-to-day of a freelance medical writer looks like.

\\n
\\nThis episode\\u2019s pearls of wisdom:
\\n
\\n\\u201cWhen you are an employee, the responsibility of finding the clients and the projects is not on your shoulders, but when you transition to be on your own, all your good skills remain but it's up to you to find the projects. So you have to add the marketing strategies, you need to think about how you will promote yourself \\u2013 it might not be something super natural, but it's much needed if you want to be known.\\u201d
\\n
\\n\\u201cWhen I was asked to do this column, I was talking with a senior friend of mine and said 'well, I don't know if I want to go that way, I might not have time'. And she told me something I will never forget: 'when you finish your PhD, you'll start with your life, you might be a research scientist, you might have kids... you won't have time. So take the time now.\\u201d
