How I Run a 7-Figure Business on 2 Desk Days a Week As a Toddler Mom [Ep 111]
Are you waiting for the perfect morning routine before you give your business the focus it needs? In this episode, I share what my mornings and workweek actually look like as a pregnant working mom running a seven-figure company. I talk about why I protect two primary workdays, how I decide what deserves my attention, and how business systems, a team, funnels, email marketing, and business automation allow the company to keep moving when I am not at my desk. I also explain why building a sustainable business has less to do with working more hours and more to do with using the hours you have for the right work. In this episode, you’ll discover: How to stop waiting for perfect conditions before taking action Why focused work can produce more than a full day of scattered tasks What I prioritize during my two dedicated workdays How coaching, creating, and delegating keep me focused on my role Why revenue generating activities need to come before branding and busywork What supports a scalable business when I step away from my laptop How a stronger CEO mindset helps me make decisions in a demanding season Why comparison can make limited time look like a business problem How the right structure creates more time freedom without requiring a perfect routine If you are ready to stop using your schedule as proof that your business cannot grow, this episode will show you how to make meaningful progress with the time you already have. Pull up your notes app because this one will help you identify what deserves your attention and what needs to be delegated, automated, or dropped.

Money Work For Therapists: How Money Mindset, Money Beliefs, And Business Strategy Create Sustainable Income (So You Can Charge With More Confidence) [Ep 110]
What if your income isn’t being limited by your strategy, but by the money story running underneath it? The real challenge is not just learning how to make more money. It is becoming the version of you who can charge more, receive more, and hold more without guilt, fear, or self-sabotage. In this episode, I’m breaking down the subconscious money beliefs that keep therapists, healers, and wellness professionals stuck in undercharging, overgiving, and questioning whether they are allowed to want more. I share how your childhood programming, professional conditioning, and identity around money can quietly shape your client rates, sales conversations, and capacity for growth. You’ll learn: Why your money mindset is not separate from your business strategy How childhood money beliefs can keep showing up in your pricing and sales Why therapists and healers often carry guilt around premium rates How to start identifying the money story running behind your business decisions Why money rewiring has to happen before more revenue can fully stick How financial freedom starts with feeling safe to receive and hold more money If you’ve been searching for money blocks, healer income, and a way to build a business that supports you without abandoning your values, this episode is your invitation to stop shrinking around money and start becoming the person who can hold the success you want.

In this episode, I’m joined by Jennifer Reinhardt, a nationally recognized real estate investor, educator, and patient advocate, who shares how she turned her real estate expertise into a coaching business.

Are you watching the online coaching space shift and wondering why the strategies that worked a year or two ago are not landing the same way now? If AI marketing, more content, and slower-to-trust buyers have made your coaching business harder to sell, this one’s for you. In this episode, I’m walking you through the market shifts shaping online coaching, from AI generated content and digital minimalism to personal brand, relationship capital, low ticket offers, and what builds trust before high ticket sales. In this episode, you’ll learn: How AI marketing is changing what buyers expect from coaches Why selling information is no longer enough in an online coaching business How to use social proof marketing to make your results easier to believe Why your personal brand needs conviction, specificity, and a clear point of view Why relationship capital is becoming one of your most valuable business assets What role low ticket offers can play before someone invests in high ticket coaching Why business growth now requires trust, proof, community, and stronger positioning You do not need to panic, post more, or rebuild your entire coaching business overnight.

What if therapist burnout isn’t actually the problem you need to solve? At some point, the question shifts from “How do I keep making private practice work?” to “What else is possible if I let myself build differently?” In this episode, I’m joined by Cydney McClain, a licensed therapist, military spouse, mom, and coach who helps women heal from purity culture and reclaim their sexual autonomy. Cydney shares her journey from therapist to coach, how she built her business from the ground up, landed her first paying client, and navigated the mindset shift that helped her believe this path was possible for her too. You’ll learn: Why business mindset matters just as much as strategy when you’re building beyond clinical work. How Cydney started with no LLC, no niche, and no social media presence and still created real momentum. Why a strong business foundation can make your work more portable through life transitions. How the right business support helped Cydney move through legal questions, visibility fears, and niche clarity. Why your lived experience can become part of your work without requiring you to be perfect first. How Cydney’s coaching supports women healing from purity culture, shame, and disconnection from self.

Breaking Founder Dependence: How Business Systems Help Your Coaching Business Run Without Daily Founder Input So Sales and Clients Keep Moving [Ep 105]
Are you still the reason your business can or cannot move forward? If every sale, client question, team decision, and backend process still runs through you, your business is not truly built to scale yet. It might be growing, but it is also depending on your daily energy, attention, and availability. In this episode, I share what breaking founder dependence actually looks like inside my coaching business and how I have built the business systems, documented processes, sales team, and client support that allow the company to keep running when I am not at my desk. I talk about the departments that support the business, the hires that helped remove me as the bottleneck, and why SOP creation matters before you start delegating more. In this episode, you’ll discover: How to spot where founder dependence is still showing up in your business What business systems actually look like behind the scenes of a growing coaching business Why documented processes make delegation, hiring, and training easier How a sales team can help protect revenue so every sale does not depend on you Why client success managers become essential as your client load grows What operations support can take off your plate so you can stay focused on the CEO role How to think about your next hire when you are still running a lean team If you are ready to stop holding every decision, every sale, and every client experience on your own, this episode will give you a clearer picture of what your business can look like when it is built to run without your constant presence.

AI For Therapists Who Want Better Marketing: How AI Copywriting, Online Coaching, and Business Systems Work Together To Save Time [Ep 103]
If you’ve ever asked ChatGPT or another AI tool to write your captions, emails, webinar copy, or launch content and the result sounded generic or disconnected from your clients, this episode will help you understand what is going wrong.
