Key Insights:

Lindy's story illuminates a challenge many therapists face: the paralyzing belief that niching down means turning clients away. As she discovered, the opposite is true. Being a generalist left her waving a flag saying "pick me" to anyone and everyone, which actually made her invisible in search results and unappealing to ideal clients.

The breakthrough came when she realized that niching isn't just about marketing - it informs everything from the additional training you pursue to the confidence you bring to sessions. When you're working with clients aligned to your passion and expertise, you leave sessions feeling energized rather than drained. That's not just good business; it's the antidote to burnout.

Perhaps most importantly, Lindy discovered that learning these business skills herself - rather than outsourcing them - wasn't just about saving money. It was about empowerment. As women therapists, we often tell ourselves we're "not good at tech" or "not business-minded." But these are learnable skills, and knowing them gives you control over your practice's growth and direction.
