So I had a goal and I had to get the clients.

I was doing social media for them.

And the truth is I hated it.

I hated this business that I created.

One of the biggest mistakes is that I was desperate.

I was so scared of not making enough money that I freaked myself out at every turn and was terrified I was going to lose a client.

And so I really, if I could go back and talk to that girl, I'd say, let's chill out just a little bit.

We're going to be fine.

And we don't have to like be so desperate and hold on to everything that came our way.

So I said yes to everything that came my way.

And I was a yes girl to my clients.

I'd get on a phone call with a client and we would leave and I'd have 20 action items to their one thing that they needed to do over the next two weeks or so.

Like I didn't know how to set boundaries.

So I resented my clients.

I hated them.

I hated working with them.

I hated the work I was doing.

And I did this for two years.

And then I realized this is worse than a nine to five job.

I feel like that freedom, where is it?
