Have you ever wondered what actually goes into showing up for your podcast audience week after week? In this milestone 200th episode, I take you behind the scenes of The Entrepreneurial Therapist Podcast — the lessons, the growth, the messy real-life moments (including recording with my feet in a foot warmer), and what this journey has taught me. I share the mindset that helped me stay committed, why I view this podcast like a high-value service people are paying for, and the exact strategy that has helped the show grow significantly in the last six months.

I'm also answering your raw and honest questions from Instagram — from what niches are thriving right now, to how to navigate the business side of therapy while going through the hardest seasons of your personal life. Whether you're dreaming of launching a podcast or scaling beyond your current capacity, this episode will help you think bigger while protecting your most valuable resource: you.
