Living with a chronic illness, disability or mental health condition is not always compatible with working. Your job wants you up and functioning full speed at the same time every day, but your illness isn’t always on board. When it comes to working, sometimes you may need to be a little bit creative.

Creativity in your work life can mean different things for everybody. Maybe it’s asking for accommodations at the office you commute to every day. Maybe for now it’s picking up a few freelance gigs when you’re up for it, or you might need to shift around how, when and where you work. That was the case for Mighty contributor Jennifer Ishbel Bell, which she shared in her article, “How to Cultivate Your Work-Life Options When You Have a Chronic Illness“:

I work for myself part of the time and have a part-time work-from-home job too. It’s nothing like what I did before — it’s not even what my qualifications and studies prepared me for. I spend most of my time now helping overwhelmed professionals stay with sass or leave with class, in a spoonie-friendly environment, and the rest of my time teaching English online. It’s different to anything I could have imagined but it gives me the flexibility I need to give my body what it needs when it needs it, and most importantly I am happier than I ever was.

If finding a gig you can do from home sounds like something you want to try, here are seven companies with open remote jobs you can apply for this August:

1. SmartrMail

An email service like MailChimp, SmartrMail is a start-up technology company with a small team that’s looking for an extra hand. According to the company’s website, the team is international — employees live in Australia, Portugal, Lithuania, the U.S. and Nicaragua — so candidates across the globe are welcome to apply. Not many details on benefits outside of a flexible work environment.
