E85: Are your friends hurting you or helping you when it comes to reaching your private practice goals?

In today’s episode, Tiffany talks about how you can identify if your friends and colleagues are helping or hurting when it comes to achieving your private practice goals.  

We talk to a lot of therapists, and we’ve been noticing a pattern: therapists who have been wanting to leave insurance panels or raise fees for months or years, but haven’t yet taken the plunge. 

Our question: why? What’s keeping these therapists in a situation that doesn’t work for them, that they don’t ultimately want? Why not change? 

There are lots of answers to this question, but here’s one that keeps popping up: an important person (or people) discouraging the therapist from taking action. 

Let’s talk about it.

In this episode, Tiffany will share:

How to distinguish between advice that’s meant to further your private practice goals versus advice that’s meant to deter you; 

How to keep your respected colleagues and loved ones close without falling prey to their limiting beliefs about what’s possible for you; 

The real reason your peers are discouraging you from leaving insurance panels or raising your fees; 

The number one thing you need to do to make your next big professional leap.
