Quotations

"When you're going through stressful or busy times,, make sure you hang on to your WHY to help you get through the times of craziness” - Rob Da Costa

Setting Boundaries with Clients: "It's much easier to get your boundaries with clients right from the beginning than it is to retrospectively put them in place. After all, if a client is used to you responding as soon as they send an email, then of course they expect you to respond every time they send an email!" — Rob Da Costa
