I used to panic about every single client email
For my first two years freelancing, I'd drop everything and answer emails instantly, even at 10 PM. I burned out hard in 2022. Now I have a rule: I only check my work inbox at 10 AM and 3 PM, and I use a simple auto-reply to set that expectation. My stress is way down and my focus is way up. How do you guys handle the constant ping of messages without losing your mind?

Turning off notifications entirely was the real game changer for me.

But what do you do when you actually need to know something?
