She ran her own planning business for 16 years culminating in a sale to an enterprise firm in 2019. Now, shes simply just obsessed with helping other amazing advisors do the same thing.

363: How to Say No to Clients (And Still Deliver an Incredible Experience)
Friday, 24 April, 2026
If you’ve ever had a client ask for something and your immediate reaction was “ugh… I really don’t want to do that,” but then you said yes anyway… this episode is for you. We’re talking about one of the most important skills for advisors: how to say no without making it weird, without damaging the relationship, and without creating a bunch of friction in your business.In this episode, we’ll discuss: Why saying yes to out-of-scope requests quietly blows up your calendar, creates hidden work, and makes your process feel… not like a process anymoreWhere scope creep actually shows up in real life, from AUM-only clients asking for planning work to all those “quick favors” that somehow take 30 minutesA super simple four-part framework you can use to say no in a way that still feels kind, clear, and really professionalExact language you can borrow to redirect clients, offer a path forward, and reinforce your value without overexplaining or apologizingAt the end of the day, this is really about clarity. Your best clients don’t need you to do everything—they need you to do the right things really, really well. And when you can say no with a path, you’re not pushing people away… you’re actually building more trust and protecting the experience for everyone, including yourself.Want to learn more about having your own app?
