  • (#547) Someone Flatlined During My Licensing Exam | Trauma From the Hood Is How I Passed

    Someone flatlined during my licensing exam and that moment cracked open something I didn't fully understand until years later. This episode is for the therapist, psychologist, or clinician dealing with test anxiety, repeated licensing exam failures, or the heaviness of starting over. It's also for the entrepreneur and service provider who's wondering why your new stream of income isn't taking off...spoiler: you might be too comfortable.

  • (#546) 12-Hour Work week | How I Create Content for the Week

    In this solo episode, Doctor TK pulls back the curtain on the unplanned Sunday that turned into one of the most productive days of her year, where she set up her entire week (business, home, and family) in less than 12 hours.

    If you've been feeling flustered, overwhelmed, or at capacity, this episode is your permission slip to do things differently. Doctor TK shares how she leveraged her energy, eliminated decision fatigue, and used habit stacking and content systems to free up her week for actual life.

    Inside this episode:

    ✨ Why fighting your low-energy days is costing you

    ✨ The Sunday setup that eliminates decision fatigue

    ✨ How to use habit stacking to get more done in less time

    ✨ How to turn one long-form podcast into weeks of content using AI

    ✨ Why your rhythm isn't supposed to be the same every day

    Whether you're an entrepreneur, a busy mom, a service provider, or a woman tired of running on empty, this episode will give you a real framework for working WITH your energy instead of against it.

  • (#543) How She Scaled from Solo Practice to 13 Clinicians in 2 Years | Group Practice Owner Interview

    Get on the Dope Therapist Academy Waitlist 

    In this Where Are They Now? Interview, Doctor TK sits down with Teresa Protasio, LICSW, to talk about scaling from a solo practice to a thriving group practice in just two years. Teresa shares the systems she had to build in her solo practice first, what she learned about leadership, payroll, and hiring, and how intentional delegation created the capacity to scale sustainably. If you're a therapist thinking about growing beyond one-on-one work, this conversation is for you.  

    Meet Our Guest: Teresa Protasio, LICSW is the Founder and CEO of Be Heard Psychotherapy, a Boston-based group practice focused on accessible, trauma-informed mental health care.   Before starting her own practice, Teresa spent over a decade working across the mental health system — including in-home therapy, crisis intervention, community health centers, and private practice. Through those experiences, she saw how often both clients and clinicians struggled within systems that didn't fully support either.  Unable to find a place that truly cared for both clinicians and the people they serve, Teresa decided to build it herself. In 2022, she founded Be Heard Psychotherapy with the mission of creating a practice where high-quality care and clinician wellbeing go hand in hand. What started as a solo practice has grown into a team of 12 clinicians and an administrative staff member, serving individuals, adolescents, and couples across Massachusetts.

        • (#538) Women, Moms & Decision Fatigue: You’re Not Tired… You’re Evolving

          Most women entrepreneurs and moms are running on empty — juggling multiple roles, carrying the mental load, and quietly feeling disconnected from who they’re becoming.

          But what if your exhaustion isn’t burnout… it’s evolution?

          In this episode, Doctor TK gets real about navigating identity shifts, decision fatigue, and the internal resistance that comes with growth. She shares how trying to force old strategies in a new season can keep you stuck, even when you’re doing “all the right things.”

          If you’ve been second-guessing yourself, feeling overwhelmed, or noticing that what used to work no longer feels aligned… this conversation will hit home.

          This is not about doing more.
          It’s about understanding your season… and creating space to grow into it.
