While that is totally amazing because you are knowledgeable, talented and can help people to make a real transformational shift in their lives, it’s also a catch-22.WHY?Because when it’s “too much too soon,” our clients become overwhelmed.
UGH…OVERWHELM….kryptonite!
We all know what overwhelm looks like: When our clients are overwhelmed, many times they just freeze and don’t achieve the results that we know they want, need, and completely possible for them. [Tweet it!]
For example, Cassy Client comes to you because she needs help. She’s feeling completely burnt out at her job, eating like a truck driver, not sleeping well, and fighting with her boyfriend on the daily. MAYDAY! You know just the steps she needs to take to whip that life into shape….awesome!So… You decide to put her a brand green juice diet, send her to a headhunter for a new gig, put her on a new sleep routine, and tell her to ditch the dud and get a profile on Match.com.You’ve helped her, right? Unfortunately, wrong.While you had the best of intentions to help her get life on track and headed in the right direction. Poor Cassy Client is feeling overwhelmed with “too much too soon.”
