Some clients are dream bookings. Others make you question your career choices before your second cup of coffee. In this Hot Take, Jennifer and Robin get honest about toxic clients, scope creep, people-pleasing, and the moment you realize a trip is no longer profitable because a client is draining every ounce of your energy. They break down how to set boundaries before things spiral, when to try salvaging the relationship, and how to professionally “bless and release” a client without the guilt, drama, or five-paragraph apology email. Consider this your PSA to stop bending your business to fit the wrong people.
