The Fully Booked Therapist Podcast w/Heather Hammell. Business coaching for hands-on therapists who are done underearning.

Doesn't matter if you are single, divorced, or have a supportive partner. You can make your MFR Business work.

Today Kris is the proud owner of a thriving MFR business doing what she loves and consistently making $2K/month, working 2 days/week, and having fun while doing it. 

In this  conversation, you’ll hear us talk about:

Today we are talking about business growth.

You may have started your business with an expectation that once you figure out the right processes, systems, and how to sell MFR we will experience a result such as business growth. When that doesn't happen, this leads to frustration.

Business growth and what you acquire in a month as far as clients and cash flow is similar to healing in that it isn't linear. Instead of getting all worked up about the result, I want you to plan for these types of things ahead of time so you can have a different experience in your business.

Listen on to learn how.

From setting up the basic foundations and earning your first dollars, serving your first clients to scaling your business and creating multiple five-figure months, the MFR Coaches Group Coaching Program is here to serve you.

Our self-concept influences how we think, feel, and act in our everyday life. 

Understanding self-concept is particularly important for MFR therapists because everything we do or don't do in our business is directly related to what we think about ourselves and what's possible. 

Once you are aware, you can change this self-concept to something that puts you in control of all your results, both in your business and your life. 

Listen in to learn how to make this shift.
