As designers, it’s easy to look sideways and think we need to follow what everyone else is doing. But that cycle drains your energy and clouds your own path. In this episode, I’ll show you how to flip your pattern-recognition engine, spot the hidden gold inside your client work, and step into the role your best clients are already waiting for you to claim.
Every project you finish carries seeds of potential. But where you scatter those seeds determines whether your work withers - or multiplies.
In this episode of Double Your Squarespace Business, we unpack the Parable of the Sower and how it mirrors what happens after the project is over.
We’ll walk through the beaten path, the rocky ground, the thorny ground, into the good soil where your business can multiply 30, 60, even 100-fold.

You’ve heard the advice a hundred times: “niche down.”
But if you’re like most Squarespace pros and creative freelancers, every time you’ve tried it, it’s either fallen flat or left you feeling boxed in.
In this episode, I unpack why the typical “niche down” approach doesn’t work—and what to do instead. You’ll learn how to identify your true niche by looking at the clients who’ve already gotten the biggest ROI from your work, where you’ve been most profitable, and the projects you’d love to repeat.
By the end, you’ll know how to niche up—not down—so you can find more of your best clients, create demand on repeat, and grow without feeling like you’re leaving people behind.
