It’s Saturday morning, you’re at your kid’s swimming lesson, and you’re replying to a client voice note about something that could easily have waited until Monday. You tell yourself it’s fine, it only takes two minutes. But it’s never just the two minutes, is it?
You may not even realise how much of your exhaustion comes from how available you’ve made yourself.
You gave your clients your mobile number “just in case.” You added a bonus session because she seemed a bit stuck. You sent the extra resource, the extra Loom, the extra check-in, because you really want her to get results and you’d hate for anyone to feel like they didn’t get enough from you. And somewhere along the way, being that available became what your clients expect, and you’re the one paying for it with your weekends, your energy and your headspace.
After coaching hundreds of women in business, I can tell you your clients don’t need more of you. They need you rested enough to actually show up well for the time they’ve paid for.
So this week, I want you to pick one boundary and hold it. Maybe that’s turning off notifications after 5pm, setting a 48-hour reply window, or delivering exactly what’s in the container and nothing extra. Just one, and notice how quickly the energy starts coming back.
What’s the one boundary you know you need to put in place? Tell me below 👇
Your clients will be just fine ❤️
