What if the very thing holding you back from success isn't your strategy, but your mindset? In this episode, I'm diving into the one mindset shift that separates successful entrepreneurial therapists from those stuck in burnout, fear, or self-doubt. I'm sharing the real stories behind my own messy beginnings—failed workshops, awkward launches, and showing up when no one was watching—and why those moments were actually the foundation of everything that came after. This isn't about hustling harder; it's about learning to do what others won't. From being willing to be embarrassed, to showing up even when no one's clapping, to surrounding yourself with people who challenge your limits—this episode will call you out (lovingly) and challenge you to rise. If you're ready to finally start operating from a place of confidence and resilience instead of comparison and fear, this one's for you. Topics Covered in This Episode: 1:25 - The uncomfortable truth about burnout and why most therapists fall into it 4:30 - The mindset shift that sets successful entrepreneurs apart 08:57 - Why failure and embarrassment are actually part of your success formula 11:45 - The secret power of showing up when no one's watching 14:20 - How to invest your time and energy like people who are “light years ahead” 16:58 - The hardest (and most freeing) lesson—being misunderstood 18:10 - How to protect your mindset when family and friends “don't get it” Resources Mentioned: Find out more about Alma here: helloalma.com/danielle Take 70% off your first 4 months of Simple Practice + a 7 day free trial using the link: simplepractice.com/danielle

Have you ever wondered what it actually takes to scale your solo private practice into a thriving seven-figure group practice? In this episode, I sit down with Nicole McCance, who shares her personal story of hitting income ceilings, navigating burnout, and realizing she needed to build something bigger than herself. We dive into the exact five-step scaling method that helped her grow quickly while balancing life as a mom of twins and eventually selling her practice. Together, we cover everything from systemizing before you hire, to building the right team, to marketing strategies that actually work while you sleep. Nicole shares the surprising missteps many therapists make when expanding, why your first hire should be a “mini-me,” and the essential client conversion and retention strategies that separate struggling practices from sustainable ones. If you're ready to move beyond burnout and start building a practice that runs without you, this conversation is packed with insights you won't want to miss. Topics Covered in this Episode: 4:49 - The surprising first step before hiring anyone 7:53 - Why your first hire should be a “mini-me” and how to avoid Nicole's biggest early mistake 10:11 - The marketing strategy that works while you sleep 13:14 - A counterintuitive secret about consult calls that increases conversions 14:44 - The timing discovery that changes how clients actually book sessions 15:47 - How pre-booking boosts retention and reduces no-shows 17:01 - The overlooked follow-up strategy that can instantly increase revenue 18:59 - The necessary timeline to see results from ads   If you're ready to take the next step in scaling your practice, don't just stop at inspiration—put these strategies into action.

Hello to you listening in Fremont, California!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Story Prompt Friday and your host, Diane Wyzga.In college I was taught by lay faculty and Benedictine monks.  Today I follow Joan Chittister, an American Benedictine nun, theologian, author, and speaker who is known for being an outspoken advocate of justice, peace and equality focusing on the empowerment of women.In her book, The Monastic Heart - 50 Simple Practices for a Contemplative and Fulfilling Life, Chittister writes, “A spirituality of work is that process by which you finally come to know that your work is God's work, unfinished by God because God meant it to be finished by you.” I say my work is "helping women shape and share their story by discovering: Who am I? What's my why or work? How do I do my work differently?"But the notion of “spirituality of work” puts a different spin on things. Is this truly my work? If so, how is it meant to be finished by me?Story Prompt: What's your work and how will you finish it? Write that story! And tell it out loud!You're always welcome: "Come for the stories - Stay for the magic!"

Why do our intentions so rarely transform into consistent actions? What prevents our aspirations from becoming achievements?  The answer lies not in willpower or knowledge, but in a crucial missing link that's often overlooked in our pursuit of consistent behavior change.  In this enlightening exploration of human motivation, we uncover the fundamental truth about why behavior doesn't stick until we see the connection between what we need to do and what we deeply care about.   While Simon Sinek popularized "starting with why," we rarely apply this principle to the small, daily actions that ultimately build the next level of ourselves.  Drawing from neuroscience, evolutionary biology, and years of coaching experience, we examine why educational systems and workplace training programs frequently fail to engage learners. The brain simply doesn't prioritize information or actions without understanding their relevance to our personal values and aspirations. This explains why we can memorize facts for tests but quickly forget them, or why we initially commit to fitness goals but struggle to maintain them.  Through practical examples, we demonstrate how connecting habits like quality sleep, nutrition, and movement to deeper values, such as being present for your children, advancing your career, or maintaining independence as you age, transforms these actions from obligations into priorities. This isn't a one-time exercise but requires ongoing reinforcement, like taking a shower or brushing your teeth.  Whether you're struggling with personal habits, leading organizational change, or simply curious about human behavior, this episode offers a powerful framework for making change stick.  By repeatedly drawing bright lines between your actions and your deepest values, you'll find yourself naturally motivated to do what matters most - no discipline struggles required.  Ready to bridge the gap between your intentions and actions? Listen now and discover how practiving your "why" can transform everything.    Text Me Your Thoughts and IdeasSupport the showBrought to you by Angela Shurina Behavior-First Change Leadership & Culture Transformation ConsultantEXECUTIVE & OPTIMAL PERFORMANCE COACH

In this practice episode, Jennifer England invites you into the courageous act of consenting to be undone.Drawing on her recent conversation with cultural worker and author Stephen Jenkinson (Matrimony: Ritual, Culture and the Heart's Work), Jennifer reflects on how, in a world filled with urgency, grief, and collapsing certainties, true participation requires both patrimony (our inheritance of grief, beauty, and obligation) and matrimony (a ritualized consent with the unseen).From this larger vision, Jennifer distills a simple yet powerful practice:Notice when things don't go as planned — a delay, an interruption, a conflict.Pause and soften your body's resistance.Ask: What might open if I allow this moment to undo me, just a little?This practice offers a counterweight to urgency and the need to fix. It nurtures intimacy with the unknown, and a deeper participation in what is always remaking itself.

And you'll come to understand that hokey it is not). I've come to understand that what I… The post Morning Affirmations for Homeschool Mama: A Simple Practice for You to Parent with Intention appeared first on Capturing the Charmed Life.

In this episode of the Setting Up for Success series, Mary and Kim talk about documentation! Love it or hate it, your documentation system can either drain your time or save it. Mary and Kim walk listeners through how they've simplified their approach to notes while still meeting all the necessary requirements—and keeping parents in the loop.They share how their practice uses Simple Practice, a digital EMR system they love for its features and flexibility. But instead of typing up detailed SOAP notes after every session, they often use a paper-based daily note that doubles as a parent-friendly handout. It's quick to fill out, easy for families to read, and can be uploaded to the EMR with a simple photo. Bonus? Parents get instant feedback in their child's folder.Mary and Kim emphasize that clarity and purpose are more important than long, wordy notes. Their paper system includes the goals for each session, progress percentages, and homework suggestions—so everyone's on the same page. For more formal reassessments or complex cases (like medically fragile kids), they switch back to the digital templates in Simple Practice to keep collaborating teams informed and organized.They also explain how their paper notes are helpful for teacher conferences and progress reviews—especially when you've got consent to share info with educators. It keeps teachers involved in therapy carryover without needing to dig through emails or portals.Throughout the episode, Mary and Kim encourage SLPs to ask themselves:What's the goal of this documentation? Who needs to read it? And how can I make it useful without overcomplicating it?If you're a therapist looking to streamline your own documentation process, Mary and Kim offer ready-to-use templates on their website and have even compiled a full Policies & Procedures List for starting a private practice. Resources Mentioned:

From organising events for Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama to teaching meditation practices that transform daily life, Michelle Eckles brings practical wisdom to those feeling overwhelmed by life's demands. In this captivating conversation, Michelle shares how meditation pulled her from a place of chronic pain, overwhelm, and burnout to a life of intention and calm. Her journey proves that even the busiest among us can find peace through simple, consistent practices that don't require hours of our day.Key TakeawaysStart with just 10 breathsThe journey to mindfulness begins with breathing. Place one hand on your chest, one on your belly, and take 10 conscious breaths through your nose. This simple practice activates your parasympathetic nervous system, sending signals to your brain to calm down—no special equipment or extended time commitment required.Single-tasking is more powerful than we realiseContrary to popular belief, multitasking creates more stress and less productivity. Michelle suggests practising "single-tasking"—giving your full attention to one activity at a time, whether waiting for the kettle to boil or enjoying a meal without distraction. This simple shift reduces mental load and increases presence.Integrate mindfulness into existing routinesYou don't need to find extra time for meditation—transform everyday moments instead. While walking, focus on one specific element (counting dogs, noticing tree colours). During meals, just eat. When waiting, just wait. These micro-moments of mindfulness accumulate into significant mental clarity.Allow emotions rather than fixing themOne of the most profound benefits of mindfulness is learning to recognise and sit with emotions without immediately trying to fix or analyse them. This practice of simply acknowledging feelings. Recognising them, naming them, and feeling where they live in your body, can transform how you respond to life's challenges.Consistency matters more than durationFive minutes of daily practice delivers more benefits than an hour-long session once a week. Start small and build the habit. The transformative power lies in making mindfulness a regular part of your life rather than an occasional intensive experience.Your Next StepsReady to experience the benefits of mindfulness in your own life? Begin with the simplest practice: those 10 mindful breaths whenever you feel overwhelmed. Notice how this small action changes your stress response. From there, choose one daily activity to transform into a mindful moment. Perhaps your morning coffee or evening walk.Remember Michelle's wisdom: "You don't need to sit on a pillow for half an hour every day" to reap the benefits of mindfulness. Start where you are, with what you have, and watch how these small practices ripple through your life, creating more space, calm, and clarity exactly when you need it most.Michelle is a member of the Meditation Association of Australia and mindful.org and a Veriditas-trained and certified labyrinth facilitator.Visit https://mindfulnessworksaustralia.com.au/  and https://meditationaustralia.org.au/ to find registered teachers in your area.Her book, Cultivating a Calm Mind provides a guide to reducing anxiety, improving sleep and managing thoughts and emotions using mindfulness and meditation techniques.

In this episode of The Speech Source Podcast, Mary and Kim continue their policies and procedures discussion by highlighting the critical forms every private practice should have—starting with HIPAA and confidentiality forms. They explain the importance of protecting client information under HIPAA law.  HIPAA is all about consent—only those directly involved in a child's care, and specifically named by the parent, can have access to information. Mary and Kim share real-world examples, like collaborating with dentists, teachers, and occupational therapists, and stress how easy it is for casual conversations to cross a line without proper signed permissions. To help parents navigate this, they've created detailed HIPAA forms with specific checkboxes for all potential team members (like teachers, assistant teachers, specialists, and even yoga instructors) and additional forms to add new providers over time. Protecting confidentiality not only meets legal requirements but builds trust and professionalism within the community.The conversation then moves to consent for treatment forms, another essential document in private practice. Whether for in-person therapy, teletherapy, or even quick speech screenings, written parental consent is required before any services can be provided. Kim and Mary also mention that many EMR systems, like their favorite, Simple Practice, offer templates that can be customized to fit your practice's specific needs. They encourage listeners to download download their free checklist of essential practice documents and to continue tuning in as they walk through the systems that have helped make their private practice run smoothly and successfully.Simple Practice affiliate link and discount code!  Also, if you haven't done so already, follow our podcast!

In Part 2 of our Setting Up for Success series, Mary and Kim explore the importance of having a comprehensive and clearly defined photo and video release form in pediatric speech therapy practice. They emphasize that a simple yes/no checkbox on a consent form isn't enough—parents need clarity about why media might be used and the specific ways their child's images or videos could be shared. Providing this context not only helps parents make informed decisions, but also protects therapists legally and supports ethical, transparent practice.Throughout the episode, Kim and Mary break down the many ways media is used in their sessions and businesses, including home programming (so families can carry over strategies at home), teacher trainings, educational course development, and marketing. Instead of asking for blanket permission, they recommend structuring release forms so parents can give selective consent for each type of media use. Mary shares professional etiquette she follows when filming a child, like first explaining what the video is for and asking the child for permission—then showing them the clip afterward to model respectful media use. They also discuss boundaries with families, such as allowing video to be taken for personal educational use only—not for posting or distributing on social media. They also acknowledge the positive impact media can have when used correctly—supporting patient progress, reinforcing therapy strategies, and helping families feel involved. However, they balance this with a conversation around privacy, online boundaries, and protecting children from misrepresentation or overexposure. Social media can be a wonderful tool, but it comes with risks, and thoughtful planning ensures everyone stays safe and informed.This episode underscores how strong policies and clear communication can set your private practice up for success.

In this episode of The Speech Source Podcast, Mary and Kim talk about why having strong attendance and cancellation policies is key to running a successful private speech therapy practice. These policies aren't just paperwork, they help support your mission, set clear expectations, and ensure clients make steady progress. They also bring consistency and professionalism, especially when working with multiple families or team members.Mary and Kim share how using systems like Simple Practice allows them to customize policies, send reminders, and make sure families truly understand what they're signing. They recommend encouraging families to review their schedules in advance and proactively cancel known conflicts. This helps keep communication open and your calendar manageable.Enforcing policies isn't always easy, but approaching situations with empathy and clear boundaries makes a big difference.

Send us a textEver had one of those days where you're running on autopilot, meeting everyone else's needs until you realize you haven't checked in with yourself at all? That's exactly where I found myself recently—emotionally depleted after a day of back-to-back meetings and heavy conversations.This episode dives into mental health basics that are genuinely practical for our real, messy lives. Not the Instagram-perfect morning routines or complicated wellness rituals, but simple practices that work when you're exhausted but still trying to show up for yourself. Because mental wellness isn't something we address only in crisis—it's built moment by moment, choice by choice.I'm sharing the five core practices that have transformed my emotional wellbeing: the two-minute heart check-in that shifts your entire day, creating small pockets of emotional safety in your routine, giving yourself permission to feel all your feelings (yes, even the uncomfortable ones), protecting your energy like the precious resource it is, and making space for joy even when life feels heavy. Plus, my personal mental health staples that aren't glamorous but work consistently.What I love most about these practices is how accessible they are. You don't need special equipment, hours of free time, or a perfectly quiet house. These are practices for real humans with real limitations who still deserve emotional wellness. Whether you're navigating work stress, personal challenges, or just the everyday weight of existing in today's world, these gentle approaches can help ground you back to yourself.Your mental health is worth prioritizing not just when everything falls apart, but every single day.

Joining Jesus on His Mission | Simple Practices For Joining Jesus (Part 1) | 3-23-2025 by Kearney eFree Church

Episode Description: In this episode of Healing Starts with the Heart, grief specialist Sharon Brubaker sheds light on the exhausting and relentless nature of grief. She challenges the common advice to “give it time” and explains why grief pain demands to be felt. Through personal stories and deep insights, Sharon provides listeners with practical steps to lean into their grief and begin processing it in a healthy way. Key Points Discussed: Why Grief Feels Exhausting Grief takes every bit of your energy, leaving you physically and emotionally drained. Staying busy and distracted may seem like a solution, but it doesn't make the pain go away. The exhaustion of grief is real—it's as if all your nerve endings are exposed, making even small tasks feel overwhelming. The Myth of “Time Heals All” Many are told to just “give it time,” but time alone does not heal grief. Pain has a purpose—it demands to be felt and processed before true healing can begin. Avoiding grief only causes it to show up unexpectedly, in ways we don't anticipate. The Chatter of Grief Grief creates an ongoing mental dialogue, much like background noise that never stops. Unprocessed grief thoughts turn into overwhelming emotions that take over daily life. The only way to quiet the chatter is to acknowledge and process the emotions tied to it. Our Culture Teaches Us to Push Through Society conditions us to suppress grief, offering minimal time to grieve before returning to “normal.” We have been led to believe that grief has an expiration date, but real healing comes from actively tending to our pain. A Simple Practice for Processing Grief Instead of pushing grief away, pause and acknowledge its presence. Identify the emotion you're feeling—sadness, loneliness, anger—and name it. Lean into the emotion rather than resisting it, allowing it to pass through you. This intentional awareness helps relieve the weight of grief over time. Journal Questions for Reflection: Have you been trying to stay busy to avoid your grief? How has that affected you? What are some ways your grief is showing up unexpectedly in your life? When was the last time you truly allowed yourself to sit with your emotions? How did it feel? What would it look like for you to practice awareness and acknowledgment of your grief today? Conclusion: Grief is not something to “get over”—it is something to tend to with care. Sharon encourages listeners to challenge societal norms, embrace their grief, and practice awareness. By learning to process grief instead of suppressing it, healing becomes possible. Resources and Support: Processing the Pain of Grief Program – Learn the step-by-step approach to healing.

Hey lovely teachers!

In today's episode, we're diving into the transformative power of gratitude and how developing a simple gratitude practice can reshape your mindset, spark creativity, and guide you through life's challenges. I share personal stories about how gratitude helped me through some of my most overwhelming times, including the early days of building my creative career. Gratitude doesn't just happen—it's intentional. I explain how pausing to reflect on what we're thankful for can shift our perspective from what's missing to what's abundant, creating a foundation for joy and resilience. I also share my own daily practice, which involves setting aside a few moments each morning to journal about what I'm grateful for, specific moments of growth, and even the challenges that have shaped my journey. I talk about how gratitude has not only influenced my personal growth but also my work as a creative and an educator. Hearing stories from students whose lives have been transformed through surface pattern design fills me with gratitude and reminds me why I love doing this work. To help you start or deepen your own gratitude practice, I've created a free printable gratitude prompt. This tool can help you build a daily habit that's simple yet impactful. As we're in the middle of the launch for Surface Design Immersion, I'm feeling immense gratitude for this community and for every student who has joined or is considering joining. If you've been on the fence, I encourage you to take the leap—there's room for you in this creative space.

If you're rethinking your relationship with alcohol or navigating early sobriety, you know it's not always easy.
