Ep. 8 On Letting Your Clients Struggle (Why Over-Delivering is Sabotaging Your Clients' Results)

I know a lot of you pride yourselves on over-delivering.

The extra calls. The bonus Voxers. The “just send it to me and I’ll fix it” energy.

But what if that instinct — the one that feels generous and high-integrity — is actually getting in the way of your clients’ growth?

In this episode, I’m unpacking the uncomfortable shift that has to happen when you move from one-to-one work into scalable programs. The shift from “I get my clients results” to “I build the infrastructure that helps them get themselves results.”

We’re talking about struggle, structure, boundaries, and why rescuing your clients can quietly erode both their capacity and your scalability.

If you’re building programs meant to grow with you — and not depend entirely on you — this one’s important.
