  Empowered Boundaries: Setting Boundaries in Your Organizing Business for More Serenity, Authenticity, and Abundance

  
  

  Agenda

  Is it difficult for you to set boundaries in your work life so you can get your work done and walk away from it into your personal life? Do you feel like you’re always connected to work? Would you like to learn the secrets to gently set boundaries that are win-win for everyone?

  Erika Salloux will share the strategies she has given her clients so they get what they want without creating stress for themselves and conflict with others whom they want in their lives. This CEU-eligible program will be full of techniques you can use in your business for yourself AND share with your clients to help them succeed in their organizing projects.

  In this program, you’ll learn:

  • The top three boundary tools to increase your gross income and serenity
  • The Fabulous Five steps to setting a loving and powerful boundary
  • The revealing of the surprising myths on boundaries and business
  • Three soft, affirmative, boundary scripts
  • An exercise in which you walk away with a new, empowering boundary you can begin tomorrow.

  Join your NAPO-WDC colleagues for an Off-Site Workday on Friday, June 9th, 8 am to 4 pm.

  

  Leave home to hyper-focus on a project or two. Set aside a day to tackle your business projects and get accountability and support from fellow chapter members. We work independently and then gather for intermittent discussions to share ideas and offer support and suggestions.

  Where:

  In-person: Janet's home in Centreville, VA. Let her know you would like to participate and she'll send her address to you.

  There is a kitchen and dining room table and two comfy sofas and some chairs to sit in all day. If the weather is nice we can spread out to the back porch and patio too.

  You can use the kitchen or there are some places close by to pick up lunch and you can come and go anytime. If people are interested, we can have a happy hour at the end of the day.

  Virtual: Work via Zoom, with the ability to join in on the discussions.

  When:

  The next Off-Site Workday is Friday, June 9th. We meet from 8 am to 4 pm. You can come and go as you please during this time.

  Format:

  We work for 1 hour and 45 minutes and then stop for accountability and feedback for 15 minutes. We'll do this 4 times throughout the day.

  To do:

  If you are interested in attending, please email Janet Schiesl at janet@basicorganization.com and she'll send you the meeting address or Zoom link.
