What happens when your clients are no longer aligned with the business you’ve built, but you feel too guilty to let them go?

This episode of the Serve Scale Soar® podcast is your guide to navigating that uncomfortable, emotional space of outgrowing your clients (even the ones who were with you from day one). Whether you’re charging more, offering different services, or simply evolving as a business owner, there comes a point when holding onto the wrong clients is hurting you and them.

Today, I’ll walk you through how to know when it’s time to let go, how to do it with integrity, and why it’s one of the smartest leadership moves you can make.


Topics Covered In This Episode:

  1. Outgrowing clients is normal and it’s a sign of growth, not failure.
  2. Holding onto misaligned clients out of guilt hurts both you and them.
  3. Letting go with integrity is possible when you follow a clear process.
  4. Audit your client roster regularly to identify who energizes you (and who doesn’t).
  5. You don’t need to over-apologize or justify your decision to evolve.
  6. Every time you let go of the wrong client, you make room for something better.
  7. Leadership means honoring your growth and making bold, aligned decisions.
