By Melissa Talago, founder and chief fire starter at Campfire Communications. I spent years working for a global PR agency. I loved the team vibe and creativity, the ability to travel the world and be supported. But I hated the long hours and office politics, and the fact that I had no say in which clients we worked with. I headed into freelancing after the birth of my first child and never went back.
