How do you go from building a solo therapy practice to leading a growing team without letting the business side take over the work you actually care about?

Katarzyna Dlugosz joins Bryan and Vicky on "The Philippine Business Playbook" to share how she built her New York psychotherapy practice from the ground up, growing from a solo therapist into a team of 20 employees and five contractors.

She gets candid about burnout, motherhood, learning how to become a business owner, and the growing pains that eventually led her to look for offshore support in the Philippines.

They also talk about what made her comfortable taking that step in a field where confidentiality and compliance are critical, why she chose Tahche, and what getting the right support could mean for the next stage of her practice.

And underneath it all is a story about people. From finding her own home and community after moving from Poland to New York, to building a practice where others can find that same sense of belonging and opportunity.

When tragedy struck Cebu, the community didn’t hesitate. They ran. 🏃‍♂️💛

In this special episode of “The Philippine Business Playbook,” we join the Tahche Runners Club and Bryan as they take part in the “Run for a Cause” which happened last Oct. 4, an event organized by local running groups to gather relief goods and support the survivors of the 6.9 magnitude earthquake that struck the north of Cebu last Sept. 30.

What started as a simple run became something bigger. Strangers turned into teammates, runners became responders, and an entire city moved with one purpose: to lift each other up.
