What happens when a dietitian starts a private practice, sees a gap in support for clinicians, and decides to fix it herself? You get The Practice Collective - a coworking model built specifically for practitioners in nutrition, wellness, and mental health.

In this episode, Samantha Barash shares how she went from running her own nutrition practice to creating a thriving coworking community for private practice professionals. Her story shows how powerful niche coworking can be, and how keeping things simple and community-focused leads to strong growth.

We cover:

• How Samantha's nutrition practice inspired her to launch a coworking space designed for private practice professionals.

• Why focusing on authentic connections and referrals beats traditional marketing.

• How she reached 45 members in just 800 square feet with a mix of in-person and virtual memberships.

• The unexpected role of virtual offices in her business model.
