Episode 91: Create Something New: Organic Growth & Meaningful Connections [featuring Anna O'Brien]
It's often the case that therapists who are stepping into entrepreneurship feel overwhelmed and discouraged by the slow growth of their private practices or other ventures.
They often struggle with promotion, and may even fall into the trap of gimmicky marketing and cookie-cutter branding and promises that ultimately don't connect with anyone.
Authenticity is the best way to find the people who will support you and help you grow, but it also means having to face rejection and criticism when introducing your new business or ideas to the world.
If you are a mental health professional who is struggling with impostor syndrome and holding back on launching your business or next entrepreneurial venture, then this episode is for you.
In this episode, I talk with Anna O'Brien, LPC, art therapist, private practice owner, and co-founder of Theravera, which runs Be Well Private Practice Communities and The Consult List.
Top 3 reasons to listen to the entire episode:
Building authentic relationships and trust is crucial for the success of a private practice, podcast, coaching program, or any other venture you may pursue. Remember to practice patience, stay true to your values, and consistently produce valuable content to achieve organic growth.
