In this episode of The Money Sessions, LIMB grad Dr. Shauna Pollard shares her transformative journey from burnout and back pain in a high-earning group practice to creating a sustainable, creative, and values-aligned solo practice.
A psychologist with ADHD, Dr. Shauna candidly discusses the toll that overwork took on her health and energy, and how moving across the country, leaving insurance behind, and setting premium fees allowed her to build a life and practice she loves.
This conversation is a powerful reminder that private practice isn’t just about money—it’s about creating space for joy, purpose, and impact.
If you’re a therapist dreaming of more spaciousness, alignment, and impact in your practice, this is a must-listen.
