Here's the truth about running this business. People will come and people will go. I took on this client about a month ago and since then have been questioning if it was the right fit. I knew in my gut that what I was doing with this client wasn't worth my time. It bound me to my desktop, took extreme focus and to be super detail oriented and with the kids screaming at the door or pulling me away from the desk...that nagging feeling saying "this isn't going to work" only got louder. BUT a big part of me didn't want to give up that income even though I could book someone else if I didn't have her taking up a spot. I've done this before in my business and I will be totally honest. The clients that pay you the least...have been the clients where I'm doing WAY more than I should for the pay. So last night I got an email that she had decided to make a change in her business with what she was outsourcing. The meant she would no longer need me. I was flooded with relief! But then the "I did something wrong" thoughts came in even though she clearly said I didn't and that my work was great. I want to tell you this because it's normal. And its normal to be nervous when you get a client to be scared they will move on. They might. It's normal to have insecurity. We are freaking humans! But every time I loose a client I didn't love working with...I gain one that fits WAY better into my life. You just have to keep going. There will be road bumps and thats okay. It will only make you better and stronger in your business. When you are starting this journey remember to focus on what is easiest for you and what feels the most natural. Be kind to yourself but also be so freaking proud that you are here and making these steps! So tell me what are you goals this week and how can I help get you there?!
