Episode Description from the Publisher

Interior Designer's Business Blueprint   In this episode, Becca and I talk about the role boundaries play in building a sustainable interior design business. We explore why boundaries can feel difficult to set — especially for women and service-based entrepreneurs — and how designers can begin creating healthier expectations around time, scope, communication, and client relationships.   In this episode, we discuss: What boundaries actually are and why they're simply expectations Why interior designers often struggle with setting boundaries The four types of boundaries that help protect your business Time boundaries like office hours, meeting schedules, and communication response times Scope boundaries and how to prevent scope creep in design projects Emotional boundaries and protecting your energy with clients Financial boundaries, including payment expectations and project terms Why clear boundaries help protect your professional reputation How listening to your intuition can help you recognize when a boundary is needed Practical ways to start practicing boundaries in both business and life   If you're ready to build a design business that supports your life — not the other way around — I'd love to invite you inside the Interior Designer's Business Blueprint + Membership.
