I thought focusing 100% on my business was the key.
Instead, I burned out.
Don't forget that the first person who has to be well enough to face any challenge is you.
Focus on yourself, get to know yourself first, and go after your dreams.
I went from charging $240 to $2300 for a landing page.
How?
- Stopped relying on agencies.
- Specialized in UX/UI
- Learned business + marketing.
- Built solid processes.
- Became consistent after every failure.
The key?
👉 Solving bigger problems = charging higher rates.
If you’re a designer who wants to level up, remember:
Your #1 skill is solving your client’s problems.
- Leave your comfort zone
- Deliver more value
- Work smarter
- Say “no” to misaligned projects
Solve big problems if you want to grow.

Designers often forget:
your client isn’t a transaction.
❌ Focus only on rates
❌ Deliver work w/out trust
❌ Chaos, no process
✅ Solve real problems
✅ Build relationships
✅ Care about the journey
👉 Clients are why your business exists.
Confidence is something that is built up and allows you to develop, it is also the basis of the work you do.
If every day you are able to believe in yourself and your abilities, you will be one step ahead of your previous self.
I’m shocked!
We just opened this X account and applied to the Framer Expert Program yesterday…
And today we got accepted!
Didn’t expect it to happen so fast.
Excited to collaborate on new projects and connect with more creatives through here.
Want your hero section to stand out?
Forget “amazing” design.
Most effective ones look similar, and that’s the point.
Visitors don’t come to admire.
They come with a problem.
Your hero has seconds to say:
“Yes, we can help.”
✅ Clear solution
✅ Fast message
✅ Zero confusion
We are redesigning our website and branding, also changing our offer making us more niche!
We are even considering the possibility of changing our company name to fit the new focus.
Being in constant movement and improvement is fundamental to gain clarity.
I got burned. And I didn't see it coming.
- No motivation
- Low energy
- Anxious every day
I even thought about quitting work.
Therapy helped. I changed everything.
Now I feel connected again: to work, to life, to purpose.
It's not all work, take care of yourself.

The client isn’t always right ↓
Early on, I said yes to everything.
Avoided conflict.
Let clients make bad calls.
Why? I wasn’t acting like an expert.
Because clients don’t just want pretty screens.
They want clarity, direction, and leadership.
The wrong clients steal your energy.
And when your energy’s gone, so is your growth.
So what changed?
I define a simpler lifestyle that allows me to take only the real clients that interest me.
That allow me to create space to grow my agency with intention.
Clients don’t just want results.
They want predictability ↓
They’re busy.
They’re stressed.
They don’t have time for chaos.
Here’s what helps:
– Clear deadlines
– Constant updates
– Involving them in the process
Focus on offering you a more complete solution.
Momentum is everything.
At first, business feels like pushing a train from a dead stop.
Takes massive effort.
But once it moves, momentum makes it easier.
That’s why we focus daily on:
- Better results
- Better experience
- Better systems
Small actions, stacked daily.
Trying to do everything alone almost broke me ↓
I used to think:
– Partnerships = losing money
– I had to do it all
And experimenting without direction
Now?
– I’ve got a sales partner
– Clear roles
– More time to grow
The right people don’t slow you down, they scale you.
Trying to do everything alone almost broke me ↓
I thought:
– I had to do it all
– Partners meant losing money
– More experiments = more progress
But clarity changed everything:
– Clear roles
– A sales partner
– More time to grow
The right people empower you!
Does overworking make sense? ↓
I used to say yes too often.
I burned out.
And my results? Still mediocre.
I changed everything:
– Chose clients carefully
– Said no more
– Protected my energy
Now results multiply.
Your energy is your edge.
Use it wisely.
