How to Set Boundaries for More Freedom, Better Clients, and a Healthier Life | Mark Williams
#752 What if the fastest way to more freedom, better clients, and a healthier life isn’t working harder — but setting better boundaries? In this episode, host Brien Gearin welcomes back builder and podcast host Mark Williams (Mark D. Williams Custom Homes / The Curious Builder Podcast) for a powerful conversation centered on one core idea: boundaries create freedom. Mark shares how setting clear expectations — like communication protocols, protected meeting times, and even “no texting after hours” language written directly into client contracts — creates healthier client relationships, better projects, and a more sustainable business. The two also dig into personal boundaries at home, especially around phones and screen time, and why protecting your time, energy, and presence isn’t selfish — it’s what allows you to show up at your best for your business, your family, and yourself! What we discuss with Mark: + Boundaries create freedom + Client communication rules + No texting after hours + Protecting family time + Avoiding entrepreneurial burnout + Confidence in setting limits + Better clients through boundaries + Proactive communication systems + Wellness and performance + Leading by example Thank you, Mark!
