Last year, I gave a $3k refund to an unaligned client. And even though it was anxiety-inducing and hard and challenged me, I learned a LOT from that experience that empowered me, taught me about trust and standing up for what you believe in, and helps me run my business to this day.

In today's episode, we chat about:

The story of what happened with this client & refund
How to know if a client is unaligned + the importance of trust
The lessons learned about mindset and support system
The importance of saying no to clients who don’t light you up
Why optimizing your online presence helps you work with who YOU want
How to align with dreamy clients in your brand, web & socials
Why you shouldn’t actually have to “sell” on inquiry calls (and how to make that happen for your biz)
