Working with difficult clients

Dealing with a nightmare client who constantly changed his mind and added scope creep, causing me to work excessive hours and leading to burnout.

What I wish I knew
"To set clear boundaries and expectations with clients from the start."
If I could tell you one thing
"Be prepared to walk away from clients who are not respectful of your time and boundaries."
