Do you ever feel like running your private practice is a bit of a roller coaster?

One week you’re full with enquiries and new bookings - and the next, it’s all cancellations and endings.

In this episode of Good Enough Counsellors, Josephine explores the emotional and practical ups and downs of private practice, and why consistency in marketing is key to creating a steadier ride.

There’s no magic wand for building a sustainable business, but there is a way to make it feel easier. Josephine shares how to make marketing a habit, manage your expectations, and measure success by your effort, not just your client numbers.

You’ll learn:

• Why quick bursts of marketing lead to “feast or famine” cycles
• How to stay consistent when you’re busy with clients
• The mindset that helps you cope with slow progress
• Simple, realistic marketing habits that keep clients coming
• Why your steady visibility builds trust and referrals over time

If you're fed up with worrying where your next client is coming from, listen to this episode to help you resolve the roller coaster ride.
