Listen "90. How to Stop Overdelivering as a VA/OBM Without Losing Clients"
Episode Synopsis
Ever catch yourself adding "just one more thing" to a client deliverable? You know, that voice that says maybe you should send one more message, create one more graphic, or throw in an extra bonus—just to be helpful?If you've ever felt compelled to go above and beyond what you were hired to do, this episode is going to shift everything for you. Most service providers think overdelivering makes them valuable, but the truth is, it's not about being helpful at all. It's about trying to feel safe in your business. And when you constantly give more than what's agreed upon, you're not just creating an energy leak—you're actually training your clients to take advantage of you.In this episode, I'm breaking down why overdelivering is really about survival, not service, and how this pattern is keeping your business stuck in chaos and burnout. Plus, I'm sharing the exact first step you can take today to start breaking this cycle.
