Therapists, we need to talk.
If you’ve ever felt like no matter how much you do, it’s never enough—this episode is for you.
I see so many therapists caught in the cycle of overworking, overgiving, and thinking that the answer is to just push a little harder. More clients. More hours. More effort.
But let me tell you something that took me way too long to learn: Working harder is NOT the solution—it’s the problem.
I know this because I lived it. I was fully booked, had a growing waitlist, and was doing everything “right.” But behind the scenes, I was running on empty. And the more I worked, the further away financial security and freedom felt.
In this episode, we’re breaking down:
✔️ Why the therapy hustle is broken—and why more clients won’t fix it
✔️ The invisible work that’s stealing your time (and how to take it back)
✔️ The shift that finally helped me step out of survival mode and into ease
✔️ Why financial freedom isn’t about how much you make—it’s about how you make it
💡 Plus, I’m sharing the mindset shifts that helped me move from overworked and overwhelmed to running a business that actually supports me too.
If you’re tired of feeling like you’re doing everything but still getting nowhere, hit play now.
