BEYOND Design: 20% Is Design — Here’s the Rest

When Clients Ghost You (And You Start Doubting Everything)


Listen Later

Ever been ghosted by a client?
You send the concept, the quote, the carefully worded email… and then—nothing. No reply. No feedback. Just silence.

In this episode, I’m sharing what to do when a client disappears—without disappearing into yourself. We’ll talk about why ghosting happens, how to gently follow up (with copy-paste scripts!), and how to protect your peace, your pricing, and your confidence.

It’s real, human, and full of soft boundaries to help you design a freelance life that actually works.
