In this episode, Julie Herres and her guest Davia Roberts discuss the differences between the nonprofit and corporate mindsets in the therapy field. They explore the challenges faced by therapists working in nonprofits, such as low pay, unrealistic expectations, and the guilt associated with prioritizing financial security. They also debunk the stigma around therapists transitioning from nonprofit to corporate settings.Financial Challenges in Nonprofit SettingsThe conversation highlights the financial challenges faced by therapists working in nonprofit settings. Many therapists in these settings are overworked and underpaid, with unrealistic workloads and limited resources. Struggles include making a living wage, paying off student loans, and the overall financial stress that impacts the well-being of therapists. On top of that, there is the guilt associated with charging higher fees for services, despite the value and importance of their work.The Impact of StigmaDavia highlights the perception that going corporate is seen as being greedy or money-focused, while nonprofit work is viewed as selfless and dedicated to helping others. The conversation challenges these stereotypes, pointing out the importance of financial security and acknowledging that therapists should not be expected to sacrifice their own well-being for their clients. They discuss the need to break free from the guilt and reframe the conversation around the value and worth of mental health services.Shifting the MindsetThe transition from a nonprofit mindset to a corporate or private practice mindset involves a critical evaluation of goals, motivations, and expectations. This process is crucial for therapists considering such a shift. They need to align their financial goals with their career aspirations, highlighting the significance of negotiating appropriate pay and understanding their worth. Additionally, the conversation addresses the necessity of financial planning and budgeting. Awareness of the seasonal fluctuations in income that can occur in an entrepreneurial or private practice setting is also a key aspect of this transition.LINKS & RESOURCESBook Recommendation: The Wealthy Speaker 3.0 More than a Therapist: Listen to the Podcast and join the community!GreenOak Accounting - www.GreenOakAccounting.comTherapy For Your Money Podcast - www.TherapyForYourMoney.comProfit First for Therapists - www.ProfitFirstForTherapists.comProfit First Academy - www.ProfitFirstForTherapists.com/AcademyPodcast Production and Show Notes by Course Creation StudioGet our free KPI tracker to see how you practice measures up to others in the industry! www.therapyforyourmoney.com/kpi

“Follow the path of peace when we think about unhealthy relationships, not only with others but within ourselves. Some of us have toxic beliefs about ourselves, limiting thoughts, and self-sabotaging behaviors... Allowing yourself to really believe that you deserve the peace and kind of giving yourself permission to have a life that's full of it.” - Davia Roberts Welcome to Stay a While with Tommi Vincent! Ice Cube once said, “Check yourself before you wreck yourself” and while the song was a bop in the 90s, it still begs the question, “How often do we actually check ourselves?” Do we have the tools we need to recognize when we're being less than loving? When we're being petty? Do we know how to course-correct? And then, what about our boundaries? If others don't know how to check themselves, how do we set proper boundaries to maintain our peace of mind and forward movement? Well, of course, we're not just posing questions. We have Davia Roberts, a licensed professional therapist at the table and we're serving up some real talk on recognizing and navigating toxic behavior because nobody likes a Petty Betty.   In 2020, the weight of our personal lives seeped into our careers more than ever. Some companies took note and made a commitment to integrating mental health and wellness into the company culture. I've had the pleasure to partner with companies like ServiceNow, Fidelity Investments, and Lululemon to develop therapeutic programming to support the mental health and wellbeing of their staff members.   As a mental health consultant, I cultivate space for professionals to process their feelings and develop new tools for coping. Employees often share how they feel valued when leadership is willing to invest in their wellbeing. Plus, leadership notes the boost in morale. In 2021, I hope more companies become wellness-minded and I'd love to help more companies make the transition. - Davia Roberts In this episode we cover [00:01 - 04:16] Take a Seat at the Stay A While Table [04:17 - 10:52] Food Is Love, Therapeutic, and Nourishing [10:53 - 23:21] Identifying the What and the Who: Behavior, Abuse, and Relationships [23:22 - 36:55] The Intentional Call to Action - Paving the Path to Maturity [36:56 - 48:34] Becoming the Most Important Person in Your Life [48:35 - 52:56] Closing Segment Key Quotes “If we don't communicate what those things [boundaries] are, we're going to continue to be in a toxic relationship, because we're both contributing to this pattern of frustration, not having healthy boundaries or healthy communication... It's important to figure out or just start with the question, one, ‘What's really bothering me in this situation?', ‘What do I need to communicate as far as my hurt?', and ‘What do I need to communicate for my boundary or my need moving forward so we can have a healthy relationship?' And lastly, if that doesn't change, what am I willing to do about it?” - Davia Roberts   “When you don't recognize that the environment that nurtured you, and, you know, formed you into the adult that you are, if you're not able to see the dynamics of that, the behavior you're learning is just going to carry over into your adult life, and into your relationships. And until you're able to see that for yourself, then you're not going to make the changes necessary to become an adult, and to be mature. ” - Davia Roberts   “Yes, it is easier said than done. But I'm like, if you want something to be different, imagine or just revisit the discomfort you had when people use those same techniques on you when someone you cared about didn't speak to you for weeks when you didn't know what you did wrong, but you could feel the discontent and the strain in the relationship, even though you wanted to fix it.” - Davia Roberts   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
