E142: From 30 Clients at $30 to Premium Cash Pay: Maggie Evans’ Journey as a Sensitive Single Mom.

In this episode, we’re speaking with Maggie Evans, an art therapist, highly sensitive person, and single mom who broke free from the burnout of BetterHelp and built a premium-fee private practice that supports both her nervous system and her child.

If you think your personality, parenting status, or sensitivity disqualifies you from making bank as a therapist—Maggie’s story will prove otherwise.

In this episode, Maggie will share:

How she went from 30 BetterHelp clients at $30/session to building a sustainable practice from scratch;

What it took to unlearn the martyr mindset of motherhood and entrepreneurship;

Why perimenopause and ADHD diagnoses inspired her niche—and her premium rates;

Her fiercely non-negotiable boundaries (no nights, no weekends, no guilt);

How LIMB helped her show up for her son—and herself—in the ways that truly matter.
