In today's episode, I sit down with Vasavi Kumar, licensed therapist, mindset coach and author of Say It Out Loud, who's redefining what it means to show up authentically online. Vasavi brings raw honesty about overcoming visibility wounds, speaking with certainty and conviction, and why the "do it anyway" mindset is the only way through. This conversation will completely shift how you think about visibility, content creation, and what it really means to be seen.

Send us a textThank you, Steve Garraty, for making this week's episode possible!  Today, we welcome Lon Stroschein to the podcast.  Lon's story hit home for me after spending over 20 years in corporate America. He is now an author, a podcast, a coach, and more, and you will hear all about it today.  At Normal 40, his relationship-based process starts by helping you articulate your dream—identifying the bigger life you've been waiting to build. They then organize those dreams into bold, actionable steps, remove the perceived risk, and design a life aligned with your aspirations. This is about betting on yourself, avoiding future regret, and creating an impactful family legacy.Lon's shares how moments in life will shape a leader at home and at work, and they thread through a conversation about values, courage, and the trade you make when success no longer feels like fulfillment.The spine of the story is a South Dakota farm and the 1980s crisis that forced his family to make hard choices. Instead of bankruptcy, his family sells land to make debts whole and rebuilds over decades with conservative discipline. That decision burns in a set of values—do what's right, operate as a team, protect your name—that later guide a midlife shift. We unpack a practical life model: what you inherit, what you build, when you realize your work here is done, and how you turn that into a legacy worth passing on.You'll also leave with a simple script that can change your home this week: ask “What do you need more of from me?” and only reply with “What else?” at least four times, then ask “What do you need less of from me?” and keep digging. No defense. No speeches. Just truth and follow-through. And if you're standing at your own fork in the road, you'll hear how a public company executive found the courage to step away when his best work wouldn't happen inside the org chart—and how a spouse's belief became the push that made his next journey so real.If this resonates, follow the show, share it with someone who needs a nudge, and leave a quick review so more parents and leaders can find these conversations. Your next chapter might start with one honest question.Support the showPlease don't forget to leave us a review wherever you consume your podcasts!

Ich wollte von ihm wissen: Was macht einem Mann Lust auf Persönlichkeitsentwicklung? Was macht einem Mann aber auch Angst? Wie finden Männer Zugang zu ihren Gefühlen und der Bereitschaft, sich ihnen zu stellen? Was kann passieren, wenn Männer heilen und fühlen? Wie zeigt sich das im Außen? Welche Rolle spielen Partnerinnen dabei? Was uns mit ihm in unserem ersten gemeinsamen Couple Retreat vom 27.2.-2.2. erwartet und worauf sich vor allem die Männer freuen dürfen.

Burnout recovery for high performers begins here. Discover why success fatigue and performance pressure aren't personal flaws—but signs of identity misalignment. Learn how to recalibrate before exhaustion becomes your normal.Even the strongest leaders reach a breaking point when excellence becomes identity. In this episode of The Recalibration, Julie Holly unpacks the hidden cost of high performance — how burnout, success fatigue, and emotional exhaustion are not signs of weakness but symptoms of misalignment.Through the lens of predictive processing, Julie explores why your brain equates slowing down with danger — and how to teach it that peace is safe again. When productivity becomes protection, rest feels risky. But exhaustion isn't failure — it's feedback.Drawing from the story of Tiger Woods, Julie illustrates what happens when discipline turns to dependence — when the very excellence that built success begins to erode the self beneath it. You'll learn why high-capacity humans often mistake depletion for devotion, and how to reclaim excellence as an expression of identity, not a substitute for it.This episode weaves together psychology, neuroscience, and faith to reveal a deeper truth: You've been loving people through your excellence. Now, you're invited to love them through your presence.Inside this conversation, you'll discover:Why burnout recovery begins at the identity level — not in your calendar or habits.How predictive processing keeps you overperforming long after your peace runs out.The difference between devotion and depletion — and how to recognize when one has disguised itself as the other.Why rest feels unsafe, and how to retrain your nervous system to experience stillness as security.The spiritual reality of presence over performance — that your worth was never meant to hang on what you produce.Today's Micro Recalibration:“I no longer mistake depletion for devotion.”If you lead others, bring this to your next conversation:“What part of our culture rewards depletion as proof of dedication?”Because collective burnout isn't about weak people — it's about misaligned patterns.This episode reminds you that The Recalibration isn't another mindset tactic or productivity strategy. It's the root-level recalibration that makes every other tool finally work again.If this episode gave you language you've been missing, please rate and review the show so more high-capacity humans can find it.

Why your success, control, and mental load are killing polarity (and what to do about it) || In this episode, Monica unpacks the root causes of burnout in hyper-successful women—not just the exhaustion, but the nervous system patterns that drive it. She unpacks how chronic over-achieving, mental load, and a refusal to ask for help become blocks that impact your health, your business, and your relationship.  From nervous system dysregulation to running the entire household while still expecting him to lead, this conversation exposes what's actually keeping you stuck in your masculine, and why your current version of “success” might be the very thing disconnecting you from your feminine, your man, and your peace. More inside the episode:

Are your toddler's meltdowns leaving you “touched out” and wondering how to stay calm? What if the fastest way to end tantrums is more connection—not more limits?In this video, we break down attachment parenting for toddlers—the practical, science-aligned way to reduce tantrums, boost cooperation, and rebuild calm (in you and your child). You'll learn why kids imitate your emotions but can't yet regulate them, how to be the adult in the room, and the exact strategies we used to go 16+ years without tantrums in our home.We'll show you how to increase your capacity (food, sleep, recovery) so you're not running on empty, plus simple co-regulation tools like cuddle-pauses, couch resets, and family calm breaks. Attachment isn't coddling—it's how kids become secure and independent. When their emotional bucket is full, clinginess drops and behavior improves. Parenting isn't convenient—but it can be effective.Key Takeaways✅ Attachment first makes every other parenting strategy work better✅ Capacity over boundaries: build yourself up so you can show up✅ Food & sleep are fuel for patience, presence, and self-control✅ Fill the bucket daily: secure kids act better and rebel less✅ Pause > push through: a 2-minute cuddle beats a 20-minute battleMemorable Quotes

In this raw and honest solo episode, Tracy Cherpeski shares what happened when the burnout prevention expert found herself sliding into Stage 4 burnout. During one of the busiest seasons of her career - launching Thriving Practice Community, facilitating a CME-accredited wellness retreat, and developing new programs - Tracy experienced firsthand the insidious nature of burnout she teaches others to prevent. But this isn't just a story about struggle. It's about what actually works: the difference between near-burnout and full burnout, why clarity is 50% of prevention, and why community isn't optional but essential infrastructure for sustainable practice. Through stories from a powerful San Jose gathering and TPC's inaugural Community of Practice session, Tracy reveals what healthcare leaders are truly hungry for and what most of us are trying to survive without.  Click here for full show notes  Is your practice growth-ready? See Where Your Practice Stands: Take our Practice Growth Readiness Assessment  Episode Highlights  The irony of teaching burnout prevention while experiencing Stage 4 burnout during an intense launch season  What happened at the San Jose CME-accredited wellness event when physicians finally had space to connect  The "worst wellness advice ever" improv game that revealed the band-aid solutions healthcare leaders are tired of hearing  Dr. Robert's story: navigating impossible income swings, two practice models, and life-altering decisions completely alone  Gianna's journey: why even successful practice owners need community to navigate next-level growth decisions  The WHO's 12 stages of burnout and why Stages 1-4 look exactly like the "model physician"  Why clarity about your WHY is at least 50% of burnout prevention  How community serves as prevention infrastructure, not just a cure for burnout  The difference between three days of intentional rest and three months of burnout recovery  Memorable Quotes  "The irony was not lost on me. And that's the thing about burnout - it's insidious. You don't see it creeping up until suddenly, you're in it."  "That feeling of 'I'm keeping all these plates spinning but I've lost sight of why I'm in the circus to begin with.'"  "My body basically said, 'Okay, you pushed through the event, now you're STOPPING whether you like it or not.'"  "The 'worst advice' they were sarcastically giving? That WAS their lived experience."  "They grabbed onto connection like oxygen."  "And that's what I mean by isolation at the survival level. It's not that he's not capable - he's proven he is. It's that he's trying to navigate impossible complexity without anyone who actually understands the terrain."  "Success doesn't eliminate the need for community. It just changes what you need community FOR."  "Clarity is at least 50% of burnout prevention."  "Community isn't optional. It's infrastructure."  "Isolation intensifies everything. The doubt. The comparison. The overwhelm. The weight of decisions."  "That's the power of community. Not as a cure for burnout, but as prevention. As the structure that keeps you from getting there in the first place."  "This isn't about waiting until you 'have it all figured out' to connect with peers. It's about recognizing that connection IS how you figure it out."  Closing  Tracy's vulnerability in this episode is a gift. She didn't just teach us about burnout prevention - she showed us what it looks like to catch yourself at Stage 4, course-correct with clarity and community, and come out stronger. If you'refeeling isolated in your practice, making high-stakes decisions alone, or wondering if you have time for community, this episode is your reminder: you don't have time NOT to invest in connection and clarity. Because without them, you'llkeep spinning until your body forces you to stop.  Tracy's Bio:  Tracy Cherpeski, MBA, MA, CPSC (she/her/hers) is the Founder of Tracy Cherpeski International and Thriving Practice Community.

This episode explores how women can break free from burnout, toxic productivity, and traditional expectations around success. Through conversation between Rachael and Tamu, the discussion focuses on redefining what success means personally, finding harmony (not just balance), honouring your needs without guilt, and taking simple, practical steps—like simplifying routines and setting boundaries—to create a more peaceful, self-cherishing life. ABOUT THE SHOW: Things I Wish I'd Known is a podcast that aims to create positive change in your life through conversation, with new episodes released regularly. Host Rachael shares her knowledge, emotions, and laughs, covering everything from mental health, suicide, and spirituality to makeup and skincare.

Listen and follow on Spotify or Apple Podcasts.   ABOUT TAMU: Tamu Thomas's journey is shaped by her honest reflections on work, life, and self-defined success. There were times when she worked too much, pushing herself beyond healthy limits. From these experiences, Tamu learned that life isn't always about achieving perfect balance but rather finding harmony—accepting that, at times, work may take precedence and, at other times, rest or personal life might take the lead. Now, at 47, Tamu is passionate about helping others redefine success on their own terms, understanding that what fulfills us changes with each stage of life. Through her story, she encourages others to get clear about what success truly means to them in each season of their journey.

"You just need more self-care."That's what I kept hearing when I was burnt out, seeing 30+ clients a week, barely breaking even. I tried bath bombs, meditation apps, yoga breaks. None of it worked.Because the problem wasn't my self-care routine. It was the business model.In this episode, I'm dismantling the 7 lies that keep therapists overworked, underpaid, and stuck in unsustainable practices. The toxic narratives about burnout, pricing, marketing, and what it takes to build a therapy practice that doesn't destroy you.Here's what I cover:Lie #1: "If you're burned out, you're just not cut out for this work" — Why burnout is a business design problem, not a character flawLie #2: "Good therapists don't talk about money" — How pricing shame keeps therapists broke and resentfulLie #3: "You need to work at the pointy end of the spectrum to be a good therapist" — Why helping people flourish is just as valuableLie #4: "You have to be beige and invisible" — Why your personality is your competitive advantageLie #5: "Marketing is sleazy and unethical" — Reframing ethical marketing as informed consentLie #6: "If you just keep pushing through, it'll get easier" — Why waiting isn't a strategyLie #7: "Wanting more means you don't care" — Dismantling the false binary between money and integrity

Click Here for the Show Notes In this episode, Melissa sits down with a first-time real estate investor who recently took the leap into purchasing her very first long-term rental property. She shares how her interest in real estate began nearly a decade ago while living in the Bay Area—an environment where investing felt out of reach due to the high cost of living. Drawn to the tangible nature of property ownership and the hands-on process of buying her first home, she found herself captivated by real estate in a way the stock market never quite inspired. Tune in to hear her journey from curiosity to action, the lessons she's learned along the way, and how she's turning her passion for real estate into a path toward financial freedom.

In this episode, Amy Natalie sits down with Dr. Nona Djavid for a powerful conversation about balancing masculine and feminine energies, nervous system regulation, and the art of intentional manifestation. Dr. Nona shares her journey from a hypermasculine, high-achieving lifestyle to one rooted in flow, embodiment, and freedom. Together, they explore how early conditioning shapes emotional patterns and how tools like neuro tagging, visualization, and movement can rewire the nervous system for deeper fulfillment.Listeners will be inspired to create an “unreasonable” vision for their lives—one that blends structure with intuition, logic with creativity, and action with surrender. Through emotional embodiment and conscious practice, this episode invites women to step into their next-level identity and manifest from a place of wholeness.Themes:Balancing masculine drive with feminine flowHealing and rewiring the nervous systemManifestation through visualization and repetitionEmbodying new emotional patternsCreating freedom through identity transformationLimited Time Offer

In this episode of The Body Grievers Club, Bri sits down with therapist, drama therapist, and creative arts therapist Danny Bryant—a fat, neurospicy clinician from upstate New York and one of Bri's dear friends. Together they unpack the messy, beautiful intersection of neurodivergence, ADHD, body image, and body liberation.Bri and Danny talk about what it means to work with your brain instead of against it—how perfectionism, masking, and executive dysfunction show up in everything from laundry to therapy notes. They explore the grief that comes with realizing your brain (and body) may never operate like everyone else's, and how to build systems, compassion, and community around that truth.They also dig into the overlap between body liberation and neurodivergence, from shame and self-blame to the ways capitalism, ableism, and diet culture all demand conformity. Expect laughter, tangents, and a lot of “same, same” moments as they name what's hard, hilarious, and healing about existing in a brain and body that don't fit the mold.If you've ever wondered whether you're “just lazy” or living in a world not built for you, this conversation will remind you: you're not broken. You're living in a system that wasn't designed with you in mind. And you deserve care that honors both your body and your brain.TIMESTAMPS:05:00 Interrupting, hyperfocus, and why voice memos help our brains13:10 Pandemic clarity, fidgets, and “something's off” → assessment16:00 Bri's “wait, do I have ADHD?” moment in real life18:30 Executive dysfunction: notes, laundry, and tasks-within-tasks22:10 Systems that fit you: redefining “done,” micro-steps, and dopamine25:10 Burnout cycles, urgency mode, and freeze vs. rest27:50 Missed diagnoses in women/AFAB folks + masking as survival30:40 ADLs with compassion: showers, brushing teeth, and ritual > routine33:10 Habit stacking, duplicates (chargers everywhere), and shame as the enemy36:00 All-or-nothing thinking, internalized ableism, and seeing ADHD as disability39:00 Curiosity > criticism: Finch, allowances, novelty, and changing what no longer works41:50 Interoception, meds, intuitive eating adaptations, and sleep/circadian quirks45:00 Energy rhythms, gray-scale phone, capacity planning, and Mondays vs. Fridays47:30 Boundaries, FOMO parts, and letting people be disappointed (community = annoyance sometimes)50:10 Assessing “stay home or go?”—facts, context, and momentum vs. depletion52:00 Culture check: conformity pressures (thinness, ableism) and finding your people54:00 GLP-1s vs. stimulants: safety, autonomy, and why changing size ≠ changing beliefs56:00 Spectrum ≠ line: the “pie chart” view + how presentation varies widelyRESOURCES:Mentioned in this episode:Love Dani Donovan's art and writing on ADHD:Comics: https://www.adhddd.com/comics/The Anti-Planner: https://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/122842465-the-anti-plannerKC Davis's Strugglecare: https://www.strugglecare.com/resourcesA Radical Guide for Women with ADHD: Embrace Neurodiversity, Live Boldly, and Break Through Barriers by Sari Solden and Michelle Frank:www.newharbinger.com/9781684032617/a-radical-guide-for-women-with-adhd/ srsltid=AfmBOoqIlhzeA5jvKuvaBqnjZZcQUZeGo5LMRX1vThmBMYFM1pWa2OtnGifted kid with ADHD essay:https://blackgirllostkeys.com/adhd/double-trouble-navigating-life-as-a-gifted-kid-with-adhd/This person is writing about Neurocomplexity in a interesting way:https://lindseymackereth.substack.com/ADHD & Nutrition@rds_for_neurodiversityWANT MORE OF DANI BRYANT?* Instagram: @danibtherapy* Website: www.danibryant.comWANT MORE OF BRI?*Instagram: @bodyimagewithbri

We inherit shame like an unspoken family heirloom — stitched into our bodies, our ambition, our idea of enough. It's the quiet undertone behind so many brilliant women asking, “Why do I still feel like I'm not enough?”In this conversation, Jennifer Walter sits down with therapist and facilitator Kyira Wackett to unpack the hidden ways shame shapes our lives — from body image and burnout to perfectionism and belonging. Together, they explore how shame isn't just a feeling — it's a learned survival strategy. One we can unlearn.You'll hear about the difference between “good” and “bad” pain, why setting boundaries feels so hard, and how to start building shame resilience without burning yourself out.This episode is part psychology, part real talk — a compassionate deep dive into the quiet stories that keep women performing, proving, and people-pleasing.If you're tired of hustling for worth, this one's your permission slip to rest, reflect, and begin again.

I think everyone would agree that all of us are under a huge amount of stress and our world seems to be out of balance. Join Jackie Vick and I as we delve into how to move our life from burnout to finding balance again.Listen to this podcast to discover:How to set clear boundariesHow to make time for rest and self-careHow to find support in your communityHow to exercise and use mindfulness techniquesJackie Vick can be reached for consultation via the following links:JackieVick.comListen to this week's program below or on your podcast platform of choice by clicking Here.

Every entrepreneur dreams of freedom, the kind where your business grows, your team thrives, and your calendar finally breathes. But for most high-performing leaders, that dream starts to feel more like a trap. The harder you push, the more control you lose. The faster you grow, the more chaotic things get. In this episode of the Level Up + Live Podcast, host Sean Meyers sits down with Bryce Moore, Certified EOS Implementer, business coach, and trusted advisor to visionaries across the country. Together, they unpack what really happens when the business you built starts running you, and the systems that can set you free. Bryce shares his own journey from burnout and bottlenecks to breakthrough and balance, revealing the real reason most leaders get stuck. It's not about talent. It's not about effort. It's about structure. When your vision outpaces your systems, chaos fills the gap, and that's when leaders start losing the joy that got them started in the first place. Through raw honesty and powerful takeaways, Bryce and Sean break down: The six core components of the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS) and why every leader needs them. How to recognize when you've become your company's biggest bottleneck, and how to step out of your own way. The mindset shift from “doing it all” to building a team that scales your vision. Why leadership without clarity leads to exhaustion, and how to fix it without losing momentum. How to build a business that actually runs without you, so you can lead with purpose, not pressure. This is more than a framework. It's a wake-up call for every visionary, business owner, and leader who knows they were made for more but feels buried by their own success. If you've ever felt trapped inside the empire you built, this episode will help you find the blueprint to break free, reclaim your focus, and finally lead from a place of peace, not panic.

If you've ever walked out of a session wondering, “Was that good enough?” — this one's for you. I'm naming a sneaky burnout loop that traps a lot of high-achieving SLPs: the cycle of over-delivering and over-functioning just to feel effective. We'll unpack why that urge to “do more” is quietly draining your energy, confidence, and joy — and how to define what enough actually means in your sessions and your life.By the end, you'll see that the value isn't in the extra few minutes or the perfectly prepped materials. It's in how you show up — and what you choose to believe about your work and your worth. What You'll Learn:How the “good enough” trap creates a burnout loop for high-achieving SLPsWhy tying your worth to client outcomes keeps you stuck in over-functioning modeThe sneaky ways “doing more” shows up in your day — and how to catch it soonerA mindset shift to stop delegating your self-worth to your caseload or clientsWhat it looks like to end a session on time and feel good about itIf this hit a nerve (in the best way), I'd love to help you explore what enough looks like for you.Book a free 1:1 consult, and we'll talk through how to quiet that “do more” voice and build a version of balance that actually feels good. 

An IBS diagnosis gets handed to you when everything else is ruled out—so it feels like the diagnostic equivalent of a shrug. Where do you go from there? On this episode of Medical Disruptors, I sit down with Dr. Will “Dr. B” Bulsiewicz—a classically trained gastroenterologist who rebuilt his approach after getting sick himself. Dr. B maps IBS as a gut–brain axis disorder. A disrupted microbiome derails motility and sensitizes the enteric nervous system. That's why scopes can look clean while symptoms rage. We cover celiac testing pitfalls, why diagnosis is still by exclusion, and how early “normal” labs don't rule out emerging disease. If you've been living around a bathroom or gave up after your IBS label, this conversation is your pivot point.

We've reached the point where “AI in HR” isn't just a buzzword—it's a mandate. But with every vendor promising a smarter, faster, more predictive future, it's getting harder to tell the difference between innovation and smoke and mirrors. In this episode, Alana Fallis and I go deep on how to navigate the noise: What should you actually invest in? How do you build real AI readiness, not just compliance theater? And how do you make sure your “data-driven” decisions don't quietly erode employee trust?We also tackle the people-and-technology dilemmas that HR leaders are facing right now. From scaling culture without losing soul, to drawing red lines on surveillance and privacy, to the sheer absurdity of AI-generated workplace flirtation—we're not short on material. These aren't hypotheticals. They're real, messy, and urgent. Let's get into it.Related Links:Join the People Managing People community forumSubscribe to the newsletter to get our latest articles and podcastsConnect with Alana on LinkedInCheck out Quantum MetricTalk HR to MeSupport the show

January doesn't fail you—your timing does. When most entrepreneurs try to plan and execute at the same time, the daily grind eats their goals by week two. We take a different path: build a 90-day plan before the year turns so you start with clarity, momentum, and a short list of actions that actually move numbers.We walk through a focused framework: reflect on last year's metrics, choose just two goals for the first quarter, and translate each into precise projects and tasks you can schedule and measure. Using a real example—adding 1,000 qualified email subscribers—we map the projects (podcast guesting, list swaps, and creating a relevant opt-in) and outline the task lists that make them work: researching aligned shows, crafting targeted pitches, aligning the opt-in to episode topics, setting dates, and tracking conversions with simple attribution. You'll hear how weekly check-ins on leading and lagging indicators help you pivot fast, protect your energy, and compound wins.We also share two client stories that underscore the payoff of early planning. One entered Q1 with tasks queued and saw a 25% revenue lift in the first 90 days. The other waited until January to plan, spent two weeks catching up, and never found traction. The takeaway is clear: planning is a multiplier when done before the calendar flips. If you want a calmer January and a stronger February, build your quarter now—set two goals, define your projects, break them into tasks, and measure what matters.Want the template and prompts we use?

A lot of lawyers believe they shouldn't feel burned out because they haven't been practicing very long. But burnout isn't measured by years in the profession. For many lawyers, it started long before their first legal job. Sarah hears from people who have only been in practice a few years and are already exhausted, overwhelmed, or checked out. They feel embarrassed or confused because they can point to colleagues who have been doing it longer. But measuring burnout by the calendar misses the reality of how it develops—especially for high-achieving perfectionists who have been pushing themselves for years before they ever set foot in a law firm.See show notes at formerlawyer.com/288

What if you could create a private practice that truly works for you—one that honors your energy, values, and clients? That's exactly what Bailey McBride, occupational therapist and founder of The Glimmer Project in Houston, Texas, has done.Bailey's journey began long before she became an OT. As the sister of an adult with Down syndrome, she grew up around people with support needs and quickly developed a passion for helping others. But it wasn't until college that she discovered occupational therapy—a field that perfectly blended her love for connection, creativity, and care.After years of working for other private practices, Bailey realized something wasn't working. She loved her profession but was exhausted by the pace, the lack of autonomy, and the misalignment between her caseload and her passions. “I loved my job,” she shared, “but it was killing me softly.”Like many therapists, she began to consider leaving the field altogether—but instead, she decided to bet on herself. With the support of her partner and guidance from the Start Your Private Practice Program, Bailey took the leap and started The Glimmer Project, specializing in sensory processing and nervous system regulation for both children and adults.Bailey's private practice started as a side hustle. When a speech therapist in her area offered her a shared clinic space, she decided to give it a try—renting a single room and seeing clients part-time. Within six months, she realized her private clients were not only filling her schedule but also replacing her salary. Now, Bailey works three days a week with clients and spends one day on admin tasks—earning more while working less. In this episode, Bailey shares how she helps clients understand their sensory processing patterns and develop tools for nervous system regulation. Her clients include both children and adults, and she emphasizes education and collaboration with families. She also uses creative marketing tools that help families identify if they're a good fit for her services. “I wanted clients to come to me already understanding what OT at Glimmer Project is all about,” she explained. “I don't want to convince people to work with me; I want them to feel drawn to it.”In Today's Episode, We Discuss:How Bailey went from almost leaving OT to thriving as her own bossThe simple “crunch the numbers” mindset shift that helped her make the leapThe creative ways she attracts her ideal sensory-focused clientsWhy “bet on yourself and you win” became her mantra for successBailey's story is a reminder that private practice isn't about working harder—it's about working smarter, with heart, and on your own terms. She's living proof that when you lead with purpose and set strong boundaries, you can build a business that supports both your clients and your life.Ready to create a private practice that gives you the flexibility and fulfillment you deserve—just like Bailey has? The Start Your Private Practice Program will show you exactly how to do it, this is where Bailey and so many other SLPs and OTs have gotten the tools, systems, and confidence to make the leap.

In this week's podcast, we talk about burnout verse resting. Creative burnout and creative rest may look similar on the surface, but they come from very different places. Burnout is the slow unraveling of connection to your work . It shows up when the camera feels heavy, ideas feel stale, and even looking at images becomes tiring. It often shows up after long periods of constant output or comparison, when making photographs becomes more about productivity than discovery...
