I'm sitting down with my student Qianlei Li, a second-generation Traditional Chinese Medicine expert and acupuncturist, who's sharing how she grew her local practice from opening to fully booked with a waitlist in less than 6 months -- then how she's gone on to grow her Instagram to over 1 million followers and launch digital products to a worldwide audience in less than 1.5 years.
She's candidly sharing the mindset shifts that helped her overcome the fear of charging premium rates, navigating the perception of being a "newbie" and even dealing with being ghosted and rejected.
