The #1 Career Boundary That Saved My Sanity


Hello Reader,

The Career Boundary That Saved My Ass

Another day, another crisis.

That’s how I used to operate.

Everybody’s monkeys became part of my circus.

Client running late? No problem. (Even though it was.)

Client forgot to make a reservation during a holiday? I got ya. (Even though they’d ignored three reminders.)

Client couldn’t possibly drop off or pick up during business hours? Come on in. (Even though I wanted to slam the door in their face.)

I was quietly seething and resentful, simmering under a mental load of catering to other people’s panic. My schedule was shredded, my patience worn thin, and my own needs? Ignored.

That was until I created the single best career boundary of my entire working life
