Summary
You landed your first client. And then... they started asking for more. And more. And you said yes. And now you're wondering how the hell you get things back on track.
In this episode of Dear Jamie, I'm answering a question from a new entrepreneur who's navigating a client that keeps demanding beyond what they paid for — and how to handle it with grace, clarity, and zero guilt.
Here's what we cover:
→ Why scope clarity at onboarding is everything
→ Exact scripts you can use to redirect out-of-scope requests
→ What it means energetically when a client doesn't respect your boundaries
→ How to reset expectations mid-engagement (yes, it's allowed)
→ Why protecting your energy IS good business
Because boundaries aren't just a business strategy. They're an energetic standard for how you want to show up — and who you want to show up for.
You're allowed to change. You're allowed to create structures that support your time, your energy, and you as a person.
