## Resource

Growing a business often requires growing into a new version of yourself. In this episode, Cathy speaks with Occupational Therapist and Owner, Jessie Ellis about the shift from clinician to director, leader and future-focused Allied Health Business Owner. Jessie shares how Skye Therapy evolved from a small experiment into a growing paediatric Allied Health business, including the bold move from a home studio into a clinic designed with room to expand. They explore the decision to niche around children’s attention, how that clarity now guides the business and why niching began to feel less risky than remaining broad. Jessie also reflects on strengthening systems, leading through unexpected team changes, preparing the business for maternity leave and building foundations that can support sustainable growth. Topics covered on business owner identity, niche strategy and leading growth : Business owner identity: Becoming intentional about who you are as a leader Jessie reflects on moving beyond her clinician identity and consciously growing into her role as a director, people leader and business owner. Niche strategy: Creating clarity around what the business does best Explore why Sky Therapy chose to focus on children’s attention and how that niche is shaping its services, marketing, partnerships and business planning.
