  • How to Hear Your Inner Cheerleader (When Your Inner Critic Won’t Quit)
    Apr 17 2025

    Does your inner critic have the mic again, saying things like “You’re not ready,” “You don’t know enough,” or “Who do you think you are?”

    Yes… me too sometimes.

    In this episode, we explore how to turn down the volume on THAT voice and start tuning into your inner cheerleader instead.

    The one who reminds you that you’re already enough, that you’ve done hard things before, and that you can do brave things, even if you're doing them scared.

    You’ll learn practical ways to reconnect with encouragement, build confidence, and feel more supported especially when you’re stepping outside your comfort zone.

    ✨ How blogging can help you market with less stress

  • Clients Need Hope, Not Guarantees: Here’s How to Provide It
    Mar 13 2025

    If you’ve ever held back from talking about the benefits of therapy because you’re afraid of making promises you can’t guarantee, this one’s for you.

    It makes sense. You’re an ethical therapist, and therapy isn’t a quick fix. But the problem is that potential clients need some reassurance before they take that first step.

    They’re feeling lost, overwhelmed, maybe even hopeless. They want to believe therapy can help, but they’re not sure. And if your marketing is vague or filled with clinical jargon, they’ll move on.

    So, if you struggle to put into words how therapy helps (without overpromising), listen in.
