Together, they break down why so many NP-owned practices stall around the $1M mark and what it takes to push through: developing true CEO-level leadership, learning to delegate, and building systems so the business can run without you.

Together, they explore why delegation is so difficult for so many NPs, how decision fatigue can quietly stall growth, and what it truly takes to move from being the solution to every problem to leading a business built to scale. If your practice depends on you showing up every single day, Carissa’s story offers a powerful look at what needs to change to create something sustainable and freeing.
