Reach out to former coworkers/managers/employers, see if they need any consulting work.

If that fails talk to one of the agencies that will get you consulting work (e.g. https://www.gun.io/).

Reduce your living expenses as much as possible.

Thanks for the shout out.

Most freelance platforms should be happy with ~20 hours/week of consistent work. One freelancer that mainly works with us at that volume had enough stability through Gun.io contracts alone to get a mortgage, which was a pretty big coup for us.

Feel free to shoot me a line at teja at gun.io.

I'll check it out and get in touch if it looks like a good fit. Thanks!
