OTs Get Paid Podcast

Are you doing it wrong? Or, are you just doing it your way?

That's the question we explore in this episode.

As an OT Biz Entrepreneur, my guess is you are pretty hard on yourself. And often wonder "is everyone else is doing it better than me" - whether regularly or during a hard spell.

Listen here to hear the 6 ways we can evaluate if you are indeed making ALL the mistakes (hint: we doubt it!), or do you have a business set up to support your life, bumps and all.

I have strong feelings on this one!

(We weren't allowed to use the word "hate" growing up - and yet here it is in my podcast? You know I have thoughts!)

The term side hustle has got to go.

You know the world has changed, and idealizing over working no longer has a place in entrepreneurship.

The current economy and ambition has changed for women post pandemic, and it's time to stop glorifying "go go go" and focussing on sustainability.

Does adding MORE to your already MASSIVE to do list fill you with dread? Want to learn how to start, grow and scale your OT biz in a modern and consistent way?

Then listen to this week's episode and share the love with a friend.

Thinking isn't doing.

Oh yeah, I went there.

But, if you think this is an episode on tough love; it's not. I dive into the phenomenon experienced by so many - Starts in our businesses and our lives, that occur beyond the beginning.

After this podcast, whether you're just starting to think about your biz, or an experienced OT entrepreneur, you'll have a clearer vision on how this season of business can come at any time, your biggest block and what to do about moving past.

Keep it simple.

That’s how to avoid being overwhelmed by your own systems.

As a business owner, you’re flooded with information, ideas, systems, platforms, and products.

Shiny object syndrome is reeeeeeeeeeal when running a business. (It’s also exhausting.)

Do you want to know the two — very simple — productivity systems I use to keep my business moving in the right direction?

They’re also easy to jump back into every time I get off track, which is a huge win for visionaries like you and me!

“My favorite part of starting a business — policies, procedures, recruitment, and HR paperwork!”

Said no OT… ever. 

Does thinking about HR make your eyes glaze over?  👀

Me too. HR is not my superpower — which is why this is NOT a solo episode. 

Instead, you’ll hear from a small business HR expert. She filters through the fluff, simplifies the language, and helps you (and me) understand what we need to do as small business owners. 

You can protect your business, mitigate risks, and create a mighty, energized team by implementing a few simple HR practices.

The other day I was out with a friend, trying to relax after a demanding week.

I was given the menu…

…and I realized I couldn’t make one more decision.

Not one.

How do you run a business when you hit a wall like this?

Running businesses, managing families, juggling jobs, investing in relationships, and everything else you deal with daily is exhausting.

More than ever, I’m grateful for this supportive OT community.

Thanks for being here.

This week’s podcast brings a totally different perspective on starting a business.

I’m joined by an OT who grew a successful business despite hearing — repeatedly — that there’s no way it would work.

💥 She pitched a business collaboration idea — they shut her down.

💥 She spoke with another OT about her idea — she was told, “Mental health OTs can’t do that.”

💥 The marketplace for her services didn’t exist — she was the first to try.

💥 She didn’t have a guide — she learned by trial and error.

💥 The currency conversion means she pays a LOT in USD for online platforms.

Despite all these roadblocks, she started an OT business that fits her lifestyle and changes lives.

Are you curious about how she overcame — and what advice she has for you? It’s all in this week’s episode. Enjoy!

Your business is growing, referrals are coming in, and you’re finding your stride… it’s exhilarating — until you realize you’re working 24/7. Womp. Womp.

It’s like being on a treadmill and someone else is controlling the speed.

Guess what? You need to hire someone (even if you don’t think you’re ready.)

But…

Who do you hire? How do you find them? What tasks will they do and what’s their title? How do you interview & what should you look for?

Fear not OT entrepreneur — the OTs Get Paid podcast has answers.

You started your business to gain time, increase your income, and have a more significant impact on the lives of your clients…

… but what happens when you want — or need — to take extended time off?

I’m not just talking about taking a 3-day weekend.

I’m talking about maternity leave, caring for aging parents, moving across the country, or dealing with your own health challenges.

Or maybe your dream is to sail around the world, but your business would never survive without you — yet.

It’s a scary part of entrepreneurship, and this week’s OTs Get Paid podcast has solutions.
