Ideal Practice

I know you don’t like to brag - but you and I both know the truth.   💁‍♀️


You’re really good at what you do.


People who work with you get better. They’re happier. Their lives just work better. 
And you’re making a difference.

Isn't that all you need to be successful in private practice? 

No, it isn’t. It takes more than that. You have to learn how to think like a business owner, which means paying attention to the business side of your practice, not just the healing side. 

So in today’s episode, we’ll explore 3 things a healthy practice needs to thrive, taking a look at: 

1. Healthy payment policies.
2. Effective systems and processes that make things easy for your clients (and yourself).
3. An abundance mindset, and a clear understanding of the purpose of your business.

Don’t get me wrong. Being good at what you do IS important. In some ways it matters more than anything else. 


But designing a practice that pays you well, supports your family, and serves your clients, requires a little more.

Where do you need to make a few changes? 

Listen to the episode, and let me know what you learn.

When you’re a healer, there’s just not much that you can’t handle, right? 

You can process almost anything with your clients — all the things they can’t talk to anyone else about: sex, drugs and rock ’n’ roll. 

You name it. We can handle it. 

Except….There is one subject we seem to trip over in all kinds of ways: money. 

And that’s a problem. 

So in today’s episode, we’ll take a look at how this plays out in practices across the country and the sneaky ways it impacts our work.

(It’s not helpful, y’all. Just sayin’.)

And then I’ll help you turn things around. :)

Because the good news is that we can do better: all it takes is a little practice. 

So let’s dive in, shall we?

So you’ve made a decision to start a private practice.
Yay! Kudos to you!  🥂🎉

But what in the world do you do now?
How do you even begin to get this thing started?

Here’s the good news. In today’s world, you have more tools, options and opportunities than ever that will make getting a business off the ground much easier.

But there are still a few basics that everyone needs at first, and that’s what we’ll cover in today’s episode. I’ll share 5 starter steps I took to get my own practice going that you can use right away.

Hint: You can’t hide behind your computer. ;)

Get yourself through these 5 starter steps and you’ll be more than ready for that first client. It may still freak you out to get that first call (as it did me!) - but you’ll be ready.

You got this, my friend.

So here’s the problem.  

You and I are human beings. 

And just like anyone else on the planet, we, too,  want good things for our families, our children, and yes - ourselves. 

But unlike many others, we are not always allowed to want more. Somehow, because we are healers, we’re not supposed to want anything else at all. Sound familiar?

In today’s episode, we’ll take a look at that concept, and the 7 core fears that often pop up as a result. 

When ignored or unseen, these fears can hold us back as healing arts professionals and private practice owners. 

See if you can relate to one or two of these (I’ll bet you can). Recognition is the first step to resolution. And from there, all kinds of good things can happen.

As entrepreneurs who are at cause in our businesses, we have the freedom AND the responsibility to design a practice that fits who we are, that works for us as well as it works for our clients - because when we do, we show up as our best selves, and do our best work. 

 However, way too often, we develop a practice by default, with little thought about what we really want it to be. It’s easy to assume that we have to do things in a way that seem to be commonly accepted or expected among our peers. 

 And that, in turn, can lead us to a place of feeling exhausted, under-appreciated, and broke. 

 So what do we do about that? 

 That’s what we’ll be talking about in this episode. 

 We’ll talk about…

• what it means to be an idealist and why that’s not such a bad thing…
• the 5 most important words that you need to stand by in your business.
• What it means to give yourself permission to do things YOUR way (and what it doesn’t.)
• How to get clear on what your way IS.

 You’ll also hear about healers who’ve made big decisions and big changes in their practice that worked, even when I thought it wouldn’t. 

So check it out, so you can design YOUR Ideal Practice too.

Hey guys!

Welcome to the Ideal Practice Podcast!

I'm SO excited to begin this journey with you.  This project has been a long time in the making, and I'm tickled pink to finally be able to share it with you.  Thank you for being here!

In today's episode you'll hear...

 - More about why I got over myself, and decided it was finally time to DO this.

-  What we're really all about here (and the guy in the helicopter who had  such a big influence on my business outlook early in my career)

-  What you can expect in the coming weeks as we move through this together (and I get into the groove, lol).

-  How to get the most out of what you hear (this could be a little tricky sometimes!)

And finally, I have a simple exercise for you that I think you'll find illuminating. :)

And while you're here - can I ask a favor?

Please leave me a 5 star review wherever you're listening to this episode. From everything I've read, your reviews make all the difference in the world with how Apple treats this effort. And the more of your feedback I can get - quickly - the better we'll be able to gain some traction and make this real. 

(And if you don't feel like you can leave 5 stars, then would you mind shooting me a message and letting me know how we can improve? That would be awesome!)

Thank you!!! 

~Wendy 
xoxo
