The Practice Check

My income is inconsistent and unpredictable

I’m busy, but still financially stressed

I undercharge but don’t know how to change it

I avoid looking too closely at my numbers

Still thinking about clients hours or days later

Struggling to separate my life from my work

Very clearly – people immediately understand my value

Somewhat – but I adjust depending on who I talk to

Only within my community – outsiders don’t get it

I constantly rephrase to avoid judgment or confusion

I have basic structures but many open questions

I rely on “common practice” rather than clarity

I worry about legality, platforms, or payment blocks

I enjoy being visible and expressing my work

I struggle with content ideas and consistency

I dislike social media but feel forced to use it

I fear being judged, reported, or misunderstood

I avoid visibility even though it limits my growth

Offline (word of mouth, referrals, events)

I don’t know how to use them effectively

I have some connections but feel mostly alone

I lack people who truly understand my work

I’m mostly gathering clarity and understanding

I know something needs to change, but I’m unsure what

I’m actively looking for structured support

I want to stabilise my practice within the next 6 months
