In this episode, you're getting exclusive access to the kind of real, honest, and high-level coaching that happens inside the Therapist to Coach Collective. You'll hear me coaching one of our incredible clients — a therapist of color who went from working full-time in community mental health to building a thriving private practice. Within her first month of going full time, she filled her caseload — and now she's consistently bringing in $10K/month through a hybrid model (insurance + private pay). But like many therapists in growth mode, she's now facing a new challenge: How do I create more time, space, and alignment — without sacrificing income? Inside this behind-the-scenes coaching session, we unpack: The real numbers behind her $10K/month practice How to gradually shift away from insurance and grow private pay clients The mindset shift from "helper" to CEO Simplifying her calendar to make space for a coaching business Expanding her niche to reflect her life transitions (including pregnancy + new motherhood) How to set boundaries that protect her time and her energy This is a raw and inspiring look at what becomes possible when you stop playing small, step into your CEO identity, and build a business that supports your life — not just your clients'.
