You must design your career
(and business)
Complete overwhelm.
You have more control than you think.
What kind of business+life do you want?
BAD. GOOD. GREAT.make a list.
Let go of what is not supporting your goals.
Sometimes it hurts.
My “client from hell” told me that working with her would change
my life. And she was right.
Use your pain points as opportunities.
Systems will save you.
You teach people how to treat you.
Because, boundaries.
You now.
The Worst.
You as you know you could be.
Uncomfortable. Embarassing. Hurts. Sucks.
(This is where everybody quits.)
aka “The Gap”
F*ck the rules, do what comes naturally. (why I sign emails with xo)
Be genuinely helpful. Overdeliver & Delight.
Listen. Give people what they want.
