Mentored with Dr Brooklyn Storme PhD

If you’re a therapist in private practice who’s ticking every box but still not seeing the momentum, this episode is for you.

I dive into the real reasons why progress can feel slow, even when you’re showing up, investing in your growth, and doing what the experts tell you. I share the mindset blocks that even seasoned professionals carry, like the fear of being seen, or the pressure to be perfect before launching something new and how they sabotage your momentum without you realising.

This episode is for the therapist who knows she’s meant for more but keeps finding herself back in the same place: stuck, second-guessing, or just plain overwhelmed. I talk about how we override our own inner wisdom by collecting more strategies, and why it’s not another course or social media template that’s missing, it’s you, in your fullest expression, leading your business from a place of wholeness.

You’ll walk away with an actionable reframe you can apply today to start getting unstuck and moving forward with clarity.

If you’re ready to break free from this loop and grow a sustainable, values-led private practice, you’re invited to join me inside Practice Momentum—my high-touch 12-month immersion to help you build a business that supports your life, not the other way around.

Have you ever felt like you’re falling behind in private practice? Like everyone else has it all figured out while you’re still trying to keep your head above water? In today’s episode, I unpack what that feeling really is and why it’s not a sign that you’re failing. In fact, it might be a powerful nudge from your nervous system that it’s time to pause, get curious, and recalibrate.

This episode is for therapists, counsellors, social workers, psychologists and play therapists who feel like the only ones not “on top of it.” If you’ve been comparing yourself to others or feeling like you’re always playing catch-up, this is the reframe you didn’t know you needed.

You’ll walk away with a mindset shift to relieve that pressure, a compassionate lens on your current season, and a reminder that business growth doesn’t come from pushing harder, it comes from honouring your own rhythm and making micro-adjustments that support your nervous system, not burn it out.

Episode 503 | The Subtle Mindset Shift That Helps Me Love My Business Again

If you’re a therapist in private practice and lately you’ve been feeling disconnected, uninspired, or just tired of the day-to-day, this episode is for you.

I created this episode because I had one of those days. The kind where everything feels harder than it should: emails feel heavy, marketing feels pointless, and even your client work feels like it’s pulling more from you than it’s giving back.

And when you’re in private practice, there’s often no buffer because you are the business.

In this conversation, I’m sharing a moment from my own week where I caught myself in that flat, resentful place. Instead of pushing through or slapping a gratitude band-aid on it, I tried something different. A mindset shift that was subtle, but powerful. One that helped me reconnect with my work without guilt, pressure, or performance.

This shift helped me feel more in control, more calm, and yes, more in love with my business again. I want that for you, too.

This episode is for you if:

You’re a counsellor, psychologist, social worker, or play therapist in private practice

You’ve been feeling emotionally flat or resistant toward your business

You want to feel motivated again without forcing gratitude or hustle

You need a more sustainable, honest mindset tool that actually helps

You’re craving more alignment between your energy and your business demands

What I share in this episode:

A behind-the-scenes story of how I moved through emotional resistance

The problem with some of the mindset advice therapists are given

A one-sentence reframe that brought clarity and calm to my day

How to stay in your power—without bypassing what you’re actually feeling

A mindset tool you can use any time you're feeling stuck or drained
