E112: From Financial Insecurity to $525 Sessions: How Brianna Emancipated Herself.

In this episode, we’re speaking with Dr. Brianna Mann, PhD, a LIMB Academy grad based in Minnesota who specializes in working with high achievers. 

Brianna gets real in today’s interview, talking about what it REALLY took for her to emancipate herself from a system that was not designed for her.

She also gets vulnerable, sharing what allowed her to keep moving forward—to keep moving towards her dream—even when she was leaving an abusive relationship, three months behind on her mortgage payments, half a million dollars in debt, and relying on welfare just to get by.

This story will inspire you—and challenge you—to think differently about yourself and the world around you.

Her top three pieces of strategic advice for a therapist who’s feeling stuck in their private practice;

The specific marketing strategies Brianna used to attract clients who were willing to pay her premium fees;

The difference between networking at therapist conferences and networking with professionals who hold themselves to a higher standard (this one is EXCITING).  

 

More about Brianna

Dr. Brianna Mann, Ph.D works with high achievers who have obtained the American Dream and feel like they’ve been sold a bill of goods because they don’t feel any happier or like their lives any more. In fact, they actually feel depressed, anxious, neurotic or numb; they’ve found out the hard way that happiness and freedom are inside jobs. Dr. Mann works with them to find and heal the root of these problems, so they can stop the fake-it-until-you-make-it routine and experience freedom and joy as more than just pipe dreams.
