I'd suggest avoiding giving specific dates next time, unless you're 100% confident you'll meet them. Maybe just share how progress is going instead. Deadlines can create anticipation, but missing them repeatedly leads to disappointment.

Thank you, I completely agree. Definitely something for me to work on. Even when I was 100% sure I’d have enough time to meet the deadline and added some extra time in case work went slower, life still threw things at me that needed attention, and it backfired anyway, but it helped me see the problem with my workflow of trying to do all events at once instead of one by one.
