Summary
You became a therapist because you love working with people, so why does running your own practice feel so painfully isolating? In today's episode, I'm sharing how to feel less lonely in therapy practice without forcing yourself into networking events you'll dread or joining every Facebook group you can find. I'm getting honest about the hidden costs of going it alone, like the bad decisions you make when there's no one to gut check your ideas, the imposter syndrome that gets louder in silence, and the burnout that creeps in faster than you think. I'm also walking you through the different types of connections that have shaped my own career, from business besties to paid communities, and why I stopped trying to bootstrap my way through everything. Plus, I'm sharing the one belief that kept me playing small for way too long, and the text message you can send this week to start changing things. Your practice was never meant to be built in isolation, and the fix might be simpler than you think.
