Boundaries are a CEO's best friend

Raise your hand if any of this sounds familiar...

πŸ™‹πŸ»β€β™€οΈ You've been struggling to stick to your calendar because you're constantly saying YES to last-minute appointments and work requests.

πŸ™‹πŸ»β€β™€οΈ You've tried blocking off time to work on those big-picture projects, but instead of working on YOUR business, you find yourself constantly 'catching up' on clients and all those tasks that never get finished.

πŸ™‹πŸ»β€β™€οΈ You've been frustrated that clients not only send you emails requesting immediate attention over the weekends, but follow it up with a DM and a text message to literally chase you down.

πŸ™‹πŸ»β€β™€οΈ You've been building a team, but instead of feeling like you reclaimed your time, you spend most of your day with Slack open, answering questions and making decisions, and non-stop interruptions.

πŸ™‹πŸ»β€β™€οΈ You've felt like you can't unplug from your business for more than a day because you want to be accessible to your client 24/7 (so yes you're responding to clients while you're supposedly 'OOO')

If you can even vaguely relate to any of that, it may be time for you to sit down with yourself and take a long hard look at your CEO Level Boundaries!

Look - I get that when you're first getting started in your business, yes is our immediate answer for nearly any question. We don't want to pass up an opportunity!

  • Hey, can we meet up for coffee? Yes.
  • Are you available to meet at eight o'clock in the evening? Yeah.
  • Can we add this and this and this to our project? Sure.

Suddenly, you're saying yes to so many things that it starts to get a bit out of control.

As your business starts to grow (you're taking on more and more clients, you have more team behind the scenes, you just have more going on), all of these yeses actually start to mean no to doing the CEO-level work that you really need to be focused on.

In this episode, we're talking about boundaries, a CEO’s best friend, so that you can be more confident and comfortable saying no.

I can’t wait to see how you use boundaries to set yourself up for growth.

To your success!
