Been doing this for 6 months (50% time), and loving it. In my case, a former employer reached out and asked if I’d like to work part time. I’ve got a friend who’s working 2 full time gigs; 15hours each. He’s more productive than his peers in each company, and only puts in a fraction of the hours. If you deliver high value, you can negotiate.

Yeah it would probably help if I get better at identifying work that is actually high-value. It’s kinda easy to fall in to the trap of doing busywork that demands lots of hours but doesn’t really produce so much value.
