Summary
Do you ever catch yourself wanting to delete, shrink, or simplify something in your business that's actually working? Patterns in business can be sneaky like that! After my biggest year ever, adding 100K+ in revenue and watching my clients hit milestones like 30K months and full practices, I found myself wanting to disable pages on my website, strip things back, and get rid of what felt like "too much." It turns out, I was mislabeling complexity as messiness. That same impulse I have in my home to declutter everything? It had crept right into how I was running my business. In today's episode, I'm getting real about how I caught myself mid-sabotage and what I'm doing differently now. I'm also inviting you to look at your own stress responses because the thing you do when your business feels overwhelming might not be solving a real problem. It might just be giving your nervous system a quick hit of relief. If you're in a season of growth and things feel heavier than you expected, this episode is for you. Topics covered on Patterns In Business: Self-sabotaging patterns in business that were quietly working against me The difference between fruitful complexity and actual disorganization in a growing therapy practice Your nervous system can trick you into shrinking what you've built instead of learning to hold more The patterns in business you default to under stress often mirror what you do in your personal life The important question I now ask myself before making any impulsive changes Resources from this episode: Liberated Business: www.thebadtherapist.coach/liberatedbusiness What Your Therapist Thinks: https://www.youtube.com/@WhatYourTherapistThinks Connect with Felicia: Get my freebie & join the email list: The Magic Sheets Instagram: @the_bad_therapist Website: w…
