Dealing with Overwhelm and Anxiety in Your Web Design Business

Feb 6, 2025

In this episode of the Web Design MBA podcast, I share an update on my unexpected break and return with insights on dealing with overwhelm and anxiety in your business. After losing my biggest client, I discuss how I bounced back by closing several new deals and taking on coaching clients. I emphasize the importance of sharing true experiences, staying relatable, and not portraying myself as an unattainable guru. The episode dives into handling mental health struggles, the illusion of control, saying no for a season, and the value of having a support system. I also highlight focusing on effective inputs, identifying what’s working, and the power of locking in to move forward with determination. If you’re dealing with stress or uncertainty in your web design business, this episode offers practical advice and encouragement to help you navigate these challenges.
