#105 | How to Set Boundaries in your Interior Design Business (& Life)


Listen Later

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
