Ready to give up....

Oh I'm sorry you're having such a rough go. If it makes you feel any better, I've done about 12-13 interviews, and I have had a total of 5 clients in and out. Since July, I've had TWO kids come and go. It's SO rough. This job is HARD. I'm at the breaking point too, wondering if it's all worth it. Only YOU know if it's worth it. I don't think you're doing anything wrong in your interviews, maybe they can feel that you're getting paniky? Maybe you're offering more information than you need to? I tend to talk too much lol I was doing the follow up emails for a while, but it made me feel like I was chasing them around and I've noticed the people I do the emails for, I don't hear back. I've stopped doing them. I do everything in my power to seem like I'm in demand and that I don't NEED their business, but that I WANT it. I also found that sitting down and asking tens of questions makes me seem more like I know what I'm doing.

It's SO hard this business - it's frustrating, stressful and emotional. Since last week, I've had permenant chest pains. You just need to decide what you want. Perhaps get a small job on weekends or in the evenings so you're not depserate for cash and you can really look for clients that work for you.

Good luck! Sending you good vibes!
