EP 154: HEALTHY BUSINESS BOUNDARIES -- Being available for clients

 

Just as we need healthy boundaries on the therapeutic side of our practice — things like keeping our professional lives separate from our private lives — we also need solid boundaries in our business.

In this week’s episode of the Do It With Intention podcast, I dive into honoring healthy business boundaries, specifically around your appointment schedule, how you’d like to be contacted, and when to return messages.

Listen in to learn how setting and honoring strong boundaries is one of the kindest things you can do for your clients.

“I invite you to think of your boundaries with your schedule as your opportunity to teach people how to treat you.”

This week on the Do It With Intention Podcast:

  • Learn why you should not be available for your clients 24/7.

  • How setting a schedule and sticking to it can lead to better relationships with your clients.

  • And why clients who are emboldened to contact you through any channel — text, phone, work email, personal email, social media — can lead to huge time sucks. Instead, educate them to respect and honor you and your time.
