Summary

Recent hikes with my sisters have had me thinking. There's something about getting out on the trails together that strips everything back, and the questions that come up on those walks have been less about business and more about who I actually am outside of it. In this episode I'm unpacking something that doesn't get talked about enough in practice circles: what it actually costs you when your job title becomes your whole personality. And what becomes possible when you finally start reclaiming space for the person behind the practitioner. This one's worth a listen. Go on, hit play. Ready to build a practice that actually fits your life? The Monday Clinical Group and one-to-one mentoring are open. Let's work it out together. https://www.geraldineheadley.com/nl-clinical Work with Geraldine: www.geraldineheadley.com www.instagram.com/mentoringwithgeraldine/
