Saying no to any type of client was particularly hard for Christy in the beginning. This also holds true for many therapists especially in the midst of the pandemic when there's an urgent need to get therapy. However, the lack of niche and attention to the back office of one's business won't bring about a thriving private practice. In this episode, Christy and Doctor TK talk through the ethical processes of therapy related to serving identified clients and creating waitlists. Christy also shared some of the big wins in her private practice after she had successfully broken her agency mindset and started tracking her numbers. ---  Take the first step to Manifest A Profitable Private Practice!

I noticed that I will have sessions at 7 o'clock at night and I still have this drive." (06:36) "I thought I was doing something but in reality, I wasn't doing anything. So now whenever I'm doing my consultations, I'm okay with, if you're in my niche and I have the availability, let's make it happen. But if not, let me refer you to somebody else that can help you because I don't have to be all things to all people."

(27:56)   Standout Quotes from Doctor TK: "You're very unto something if you sometimes, not in all cases, feel like you're actually seeing the wrong client. And ethically you shouldn't keep seeing that kid just because the parent wants you to when we know that that's not the identified client." (13:04) "I just wanna give a disclaimer to therapists that you need to pay attention — or I suggest that you pay attention to your numbers — how many phone calls you get per week, and the comparison to how we were last year at this time because the fact is people are going back to work, kids are back in school, and so the level of urgency may not be as present as it was 12 months ago, specifically because people are moving back to their new norm."

Have you been sucked into the #hustle and #grind of entrepreneurship? Is your creativity being compromised because you're working all the time? Well my friend, this episode is for YOU. This week on The Ultimate Creative Podcast I'm talking with Christy Cegelski, host of the podcast Captivate + Convert about how she started her copywriting business, what it was like to develop (and stick to) boundaries within the business, and how she uses her podcast as a way to support the core mission of her business - to help more women achieve wealth, success, and independence, and to do it in a sustainable way.“Sometimes I do that by creating email funnels so my clients can automate their sales process and save time. And sometimes I have a guest on the podcast to talk about how to address and managing anxiety, because you can't effectively run your business if you're having panic attacks every day. To me, success isn't just about how much money you make. It's about really the quality of life.

In today’s episode of the As Told by Nomads Podcast, join me and my guest, Christy Jeziorski, as we talk about using music as a form of diplomacy. Christy is a social entrepreneur, music consultant, creative strategist, and founder of Inity. At a young age, she has already been passionate about music and her journey always led her back to it. Music is so powerful in many ways; listen to the episode now and learn how this has changed her life! Listen to your Intuition Intuition or gut instincts are personal feelings and immediate understandings of certain matters that are mostly always right. Many people neglect their intuition because they’re afraid of the outcome if they follow what they feel. It can be very difficult to follow them, especially when you’re focused on the negative situations that might happen. On the contrary, listening to your intuitions protect you from harmful situations and relationships. It helps you become more aware and avoid unnecessary matters that will waste your time. If you start to acknowledge and accept your gut instincts, your path will be clearer. You can’t really say that your intuition is wrong when you don’t try to prove it right. There are many instances in our life when we wished that we should’ve followed our intuitions from the start. Don’t let overthinking interfere or hinder you from what you think is best for you.Breaking Away from ExpectationsPeople will always have expectations for who you are and what they want you to do. It is hard to break away from these expectations when they’re from our families. We start becoming hesitant to follow our passion because of what others are saying. However, it is important that you realize that you’re the one that should create your future and not anyone else. When you let other people dictate who you should become, you’ll live your life unfulfilled and confused. Christy said that it is important that people find that passion or purpose in their life that makes them feel happy that they could turn into their careers. By having the courage to work hard for your passion, you will never feel like you’re simply working to earn money. Instead, you’ll feel and living your life with a purpose.About Christy Jeziorski:,Christy is a music industry professional with over 40 concerts and festivals under her belt as an independent producer and promoter, including the reggae and global music series at Cervantes Masterpiece Ballroom in Denver, Colorado, and two seasons of Miami Reggae Festival.A consultant and strategist for artists in the global roots music scene (reggae, jazz, afrobeat, folktronica, music of Latin America), and she strives to help artists and brands connect with their audiences through campaigns that are both insight-driven and socially impactful, while at the same time catalyze a form of cultural exchange and diplomacy across borders.Over the last decade, Christy lived and studied in Los Angeles, South Africa, Belize, Denver and Palm Springs.

As my guest this week said, “We know as marketers that a strong, consistent brand is important to success. It builds customers’ trust.” But it can be tricky to maintain consistency when your company has multiple locations or franchises across a wide geographical area. This week I sat down with Christy Barnes, VP of Marketing at Camp Bow Wow, to discuss how she manages brand consistency across nearly 200 franchised locations — and how she uses marketing to not only build the Camp Bow Wow brand but also support its franchise owners.    What we discussed: - How Camp Bow Wow adjusted messaging to better address the needs of its customers during the pandemic - The importance of understanding marketing from a franchisee’s point of view, and building trust among franchise owners - How Christy uses her creative team and high-caliber marketing materials to encourage and promote brand consistency - Why collaborating with franchise owners and employees is pivotal to creating meaningful marketing strategies - How to coordinate both national and local marketing campaigns to get the most bang for your buck

Christy Tending is back for her sixth visit, and this time we’re talking about how our lives and businesses have recently evolved. It’s a living discussion, and one that started when we met to co-work at a cafe this summer and found ourselves diving into a conversation about how we’d recently had a very mindful and impactful experience of making decisions that have intrinsically changed who we are, and how we approach things.

I’ve decided to focus the next few episodes on momentum, specifically two topics: momentum accelerators and momentum decelerators. We are going to kick off the momentum series talking about a common emotion we all feel, FEAR: False Evidence Appearing Real. We’ll also explore how fear negatively impacts our momentum.   When we think of momentum, we think of a series of wins, accomplishments, and successes, but momentum is more than that! If you can build long-term positive momentum, it will lead you to breakthrough. You know and feel when you have momentum because you are at the top of your game.   Christy tells us that fear manifests itself in different ways for different people. Some people can operate in fear, and others become paralyzed by fear. She associates delay, lack of movement and momentum, not able to see the dream or goal. The tough part about fear is that fear is abstract. These feelings and emotions start to accumulate and manifest. We need to figure out how to harness fear, how to control fear, and how to address fear. There’s a balance of not moving because you don’t know what to do and not moving because you’re afraid. Your fear can be externally driven or driven from your own subconscious negative beliefs, which are internal. External fears are easier to fix because we can rationalize the fear and internal fears are harder to process because we have to admit to the fear before we can eliminate it. From this point, you need to recognize, acknowledge your fear then get momentum to move into perpetual motion toward eliminating your fear. Perpetual motion means doing an activity that matters, not being busy. This type of movement must be intentionally directed. Listen in to find out what fears people deal with the most, fear of failure and fear of success, why internalizing your fear gives your fear more power, the significance of the power of the spoken word, and fear of change. Find out what you will receive when you flip to the other side of the fear coin! If you’re ready for change and have made a personal goal to achieve what you want. Be willing to commit, be prepared for the challenge, and be prepared for growth! Consider the East Week Forum Mastermind for entrepreneurs and the Career Accelerator Mastermind for individuals who are ready to unleash their full potential. Find more information in the resources and links below!   In This Episode: [01:49] What is momentum? [04:39] How I’ve witnessed fear as a momentum decelerator in other’s lives. [08:32] Christy's history and how she created her message. [11:40] How Christy defines fear. [13:36] The tough part about fear is that fear is abstract. Fear is a fear not a fact. [15:28] Procrastination is a symptom of fear.  [17:32] Fear can be externally driven or internally driven. [20:22] Are you busy or are you productive? [22:44] Types of fears people struggle with the most. [33:52] Fear of being in reality. [40:46] Ways Christy has seen fear manifest itself and show up. [47:48] Why we don’t want to fully acknowledge how great we really are.  [53:00] “You look like the weight of the world just fell off your shoulders.” [98:10] We talk about fear and don’t move toward solutions. [101:52] Fears based on what our family members have told us. [106:38] Writing up accomplishments that I’ve done.  [111:40] The other side of the fear coin is confidence, joy and momentum.   Links and Resources Learn About The Company Contact Us Or Schedule A Strategy Call Work With Me Read The Blog Register For Our Game-Changing Courses Entrepreneur Mastermind Link Career Mastermind Link

  In today's episode, we'll explore about anti-diet movement with Christy Harrison Diet is quickly becoming the dirtiest word in wellness. The anti-diet movement is growing very, very rapidly. But what does it mean “anti-diet”? Anti-diet means anti-diet culture. Diet Culture is the system of oppression that promotes thinness and equates it to health and moral virtue. It promotes weight loss as a mean of attaining a higher status and demonize certain ways of eating while elevating others. However, anti-diet doesn’t mean anti-dieter. It doesn’t mean shaming people who diet. Dieter is, in fact, acting “as expected” in a society laden by weight stigma which marginalizes larger bodies. The Anti Diet is a movement raising against diet culture, not dieters. I think in many ways it’s a female fight because women are so often targeted by the diet industry. Women, especially, end up tying their self-worth to how they look, and the diet industry teaches us that that’s what matters most as a woman. In today’s episode, we will explore the anti-diet movement with Christy Harrison, MPH, RD, CDN, an anti-diet registered dietitian nutritionist and certified intuitive eating counselor based in New York City. Christie hosts the podcast Food Psych and recently released Anti-Diet: Reclaim Your Time, Money, Well-Being, and Happiness Through Intuitive Eating book. What you'll learn listening to this episode of anti-diet: How Christy’s food journey led her to write this book Why we have a diet culture epidemic NOT an obesity epidemic… The history of diet culture Why diet culture is morphing into wellness diet Best buying interest (fear) versus detriment buying (love) Mentioned on the show: Register Workshop Get your copy: Anti-Diet Going Beyond the Food Academy Connect with our guest Podcast Instagram Facebook

So many of us have ideas, but they stay just that — ideas. Our guest today took a risk, left a steady job and long career to follow her passion, and it paid off big time. Christie Lohr understood the difficulties of both finding a job in fashion and also hiring the right candidate, and took it into her own hands to create the one of a kind fashion job website Style Nine to Five. She talks about lessons she learned in her 20 years plus experience in fashion, what's on trend now, and how to have the confidence to move forward without a plan B. What You'll Hear in This Episode: The fashion trends this summer including hats, snakeskin prints, monochrome and high waisted flowy pants. What led Christy down the path of fashion at a very young age, and the love she discovered for both the business and creative side. How Style Nine to Five works, and why Christy knew it was needed in the fashion employment industry. What it was like for Cristy once she put it all on the line and left her job to create Style Nine to Five. What Christy loves about creating opportunities for young employees in fashion and employers looking for high value candidates. How Christy knew she was on track when creating Style Nine to Five, and what challenges she overcame along the way. Why we shouldn't wait for everything to be perfect before jumping into action on our ideas. Why it was so important to Christy to start her blog, and how it has evolved over the years. The little ways Christy separates herself from others, including the much lost art of handwritten notes to express her gratitude. How Christy stays on top of trends, finds the best deals and her advice for those of us looking to level up our style game. Advice for women to feel worthy and deserving of success. How she recharges and sets boundaries with such a busy schedule. Quotes: “I always had an inkling fashion would be my career path, I just didn't know exactly what.” “I've always visualized myself doing more.” “There is a reason I haven't seen Game of Thrones. While everyone was watching it, I was working on my business.” “If I have an idea, I get started right away.” “No one is going to discover you. You have to get out there and make yourself known.” “Social media is your resume.” “Don't let fear guide you, but embrace it.” Mentioned: Lack of Color Style Nine to Five Journey Into the Inner Circle: Carrie Doll @CarrieADoll – Twitter @carriedollconsulting – Instagram Carrie Doll – Facebook Please rate, review and follow the podcast!

It's easy to assume that once you know your purpose and mission in life, that there are few barriers to actually accomplishing your mission.  However there are times when, even though you know your mission, for some reason, you can't find your voice to speak the truth of your mission. In today's episode, I talk about the time this happened to me. It was this past year and I just couldn't even verbalize why I couldn't record a podcast, but I just knew I couldn't. I pulled the plug on the podcast, and was ready to pack it in. When I told my podcast producer, Christy Haussler about this, she sent me an email that I read and re-read again and again. Eventually, I found my voice again. Learn what I did and how I dealt with myself during this difficult time.   Show Highlights: Finding your voice happens over and over again throughout our lives - it's not a one time thing. Why you have to give yourself grace and space when you can't find your voice. How Christy's email helped me give myself room to flounder a bit. Women in particular, are susceptible to losing their voices Where to find support when you don't even understand what is going on with you. Podcasting has been a tool that has given thousands of women a voice AND a platform. Why patience with yourself is critical when you can't find your voice. Links: Christy's Website

Christy Tehven left her full-time marketing gig before she knew how she would spend her time, or make a living. An early affinity for nature attracted her to a floral business. When her attempt to purchase an existing floral shop business didn’t pan out, Christy took some time for herself and went to a secluded cabin in the woods to figure it all out. She worked through Danielle Laporte’s book, The Fire Starter Sessions. This break gave Christy the clarity she needed to decide her next steps. And, with the encouragement of her husband, Greg, the two attended Action Camp. This program provided a safe and open space for Christy to voice her goals out loud, and accountability partners to support her when she felt like giving up.   During this episode, Christy describes the ups and downs of her journey which resulted in the creation of her one-of-a-kind business, Love Always Floral. If you are considering a life or job transition but are having a hard time getting started I invite you to check out my Discover What’s Next coaching program.
