How to Manage Multiple Client Projects and Maintain Your Sanity

Today’s question is:

“How do you manage scheduling and project overlap? Especially when clients are slow to respond or projects take longer to complete then you originally thought they would?

I’m constantly struggling with old projects that drag on and take up the time I’ve set aside for new projects to start.”

Listen now:

In this episode, we cover two things you need to know about yourself to maintain balance with your client projects, how to set boundaries with your clients, some ideas for handling multiple client projects at once without losing your mind, what to do when clients don’t follow the rules, and we also talk a bit about how we each handle our own schedules when we’re working with multiple clients at one time.

“Amy and Kirsty are wonderful, wise and witty!

I already push myself hard enough so I'm not interested in working with coaches that are going to "crack the whip" and "kick my arse".

Kirsty and Amy both have a gently challenging coaching style. I always left sessions feeling validated, smart and capable but with a clear idea of how to make things even betterer.”

“Kirsty seems to have this ability to see things that aren't being said. And then she brings them to light in such a nurturing way.

Amy is direct AND caring all at the same time. It makes it easier for me to get to the point cause I know you'll get to the point when you ask about the things you need more info on.

Together — I love that neither of them hold back when their opinion/suggestion/perspective differs from the other's. It just makes it all so much more valuable.

Also, they’re both so genuine, warm, smart and hilarious. Those 'good' traits just compound when you put the two of them together, ya know?”

“All I'd ever heard about Amy was that she's a great coach. Welp, she's a great coach. Knows the right questions to ask to get through the bullshit and get to the root issue.

And my sweet, sweet Kirsty. Using all of her best therapy tricks to keep us moving forward. And making us feel loved :)

Together? Stop. So good. I have never felt so supported.

I think the value in coaching is having someone hold a bigger vision for you than you can see yourself. So having TWO of you hold that for me was extremely motivating.”
