“You can’t serve everyone - and you’re not supposed to.”
When you’re just starting out, the pressure to say “yes” to every opportunity can feel overwhelming.
You want to be seen. You want to succeed. But trying to serve everyone waters down your vision, your message, and your energy.
Here’s the truth: The more specific you are about who you serve, the more powerful and impactful your work becomes.
Don’t be afraid to verbalize your ideal client.
Don’t be afraid to own your niche.
Don’t be afraid to say:
“This is who I’m here to help.”

You’re not here to blend in. You’re here to stand out with clarity and confidence.
When you know your client, you serve from a place of power.
