    275: Managing Capacity & Boundaries During the Holiday Rush

    With the holidays right around the corner, it's the perfect time to revisit the ever-challenging topic of boundaries—especially when your schedule feels maxed out. In this episode, we dive deep into finding the balance between capacity and demand as business heats up and life gets even busier. We share one listener’s personal struggle with managing her calendar, especially when new clients throw off her well-laid plans (we’ve all been there, right?).   We’ll explore the concept of capacity vs. demand, a lesson borrowed from physical therapy that translates perfectly to real estate. Your capacity is how much you can handle before hitting burnout, while demand covers everything from client needs to family responsibilities. The key takeaway? If you want to handle a busier season without losing your sanity, you've got to increase your capacity—whether that’s by adding systems, streamlining processes, or getting help.   Plus, hear how Alissa found her own capacity sweet spot and tips for differentiating between real demands and the ones we create in our minds. Get ready to set some boundaries and approach this holiday season with more clarity and calm!   Tune in, take a breath, and let’s tackle this together! 💪 Leave us a review at ratethispodcast.com/hustlehumbly Get your FREE Database Template  Email Templates 101: emailtemplates101.com Build Your Own Business 101: hustlehumblypodcast.com/byob Agent Systems 101: agentsystems101.com All Resources: hustlehumblypodcast.com Submit your topic ideas and toasts to team@hustlehumblypodcast.com
