Have you found it harder to work for women clients? I definitely have. Not to be critical of our own kind, but it seems that women can easily lose patience and give up on you if they're not getting the personal attention and care they want. I lost a client recently, and I'm not sure what I did wrong apart from not obliging to some demands like meeting for lunch for conversations we could have had over a Zoom call. I've offered great high-touch advisory services for this client, but it wasn't good enough. Have you had experiences like this?

I've found it more challenging too, but not exactly for reasons like this. What's been hard for me is to account for all the distinct financial challenges women face - longer life expectancies, career breaks for caregiving, wage disparities, etc. Does your firm do a good review of client history? Maybe you could look into the feedback and see if there could be other things that made her depart.

Advice needed.
Im a ux designer, i got offer from wipro and leadsquared.
