Quote:

“It's very motivating for me because I know there is no other way for me to run my practice at this point. And maybe that'll change at some point in the future. But I honestly love working this way, so it's hard for me to imagine changing too much. That's my why. It's so important for anyone who makes the switch to really know their why. ” - Carolyn
