If you want to grow your private practice to multi-six figures, the problem probably isn't what you need to add. It's what you need to stop doing. In today's episode, I'm sharing three things that are quietly draining your time and energy right now, even though they feel productive or even responsible, but are actually getting in the way of you scaling your practice and adding thousands of dollars of revenue every single month. We're talking about where your energy is leaking, why the emails you keep writing from scratch are taking up way more real estate in your week than they deserve, what happens to all those leads coming to your website when you don't have something in place to capture them, and why managing your own inbox might be one of the most expensive habits in your business right now. None of these are complicated fixes. But they will challenge how you think about your time and your energy. And one of them might bring up some unexpected feelings about hard work, worth, and who you think you need to be in your business. Topics covered on Grow Your Private Practice: The one place most therapists are leaking energy every single week without realizing it, and why it's preventing you from being able to grow your private practice What needs to be in place on your website before your private practice gets full so you stop losing warm leads you worked incredibly hard to attract The inbox habit that feels responsible and thorough but is one of the first things you need to let go of if you want to grow your private practice to multi-six figures The unexpected emotional resistance that comes up when you start reallocating tasks in your business and why it's worth paying attention to Connect with… ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/the-bad-therapist-show-6258887/episodes/3-things-to-stop-doing-right-now-to-grow-your-private-practice-to-multi-6-figures-ep-161/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-bad-therapist-show-6258887/3-things-to-stop-doing-right-now-to-grow-your-private-practice-to-multi-6-figures-ep-161.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
