This week I'm chatting with Roxanne Francis, award-winning psychotherapist, business coach and owner of a busy group therapy practice in Toronto. 

Roxanne is also the founder of the Therapists' Lounge, a conference providing community and support for solo practitioners. And she's frequently featured in local and national media outlets, including Canada's well-known Breakfast Television. 

In this episode, we discuss the similarities between building an acupuncture practice and building a therapy practice, which includes very little marketing education in school, as well as the feeling that you're left to "figure it out on your own" when you graduate. 

Roxanne shares great advice and perspectives to remind us all that we don't have to be alone on this journey. 

In this episode, we talk about:

• How therapists and acupuncturists building their practices can benefit from community and support.
• How Roxanne landed TV appearances that have helped build her therapy practice.
• Roxanne's specific advice for pitching to TV producers.
• Overcoming nervousness in public speaking.
• How to plan for slow seasons in your practice.
• Consistency on social media vs. being on social "constantly" and why they are not the same thing.
• And much more.

Hope you enjoy this gem of an episode with Roxanne!
