She also has a private counseling practice in Kansas City, as well as a coaching and consulting business that focuses on helping entrepreneurs grow their businesses.

1. Risk-taking and believing in yourself
2. Putting yourself out there in uncomfortable situations to grow professionally
3. Going from a college mom to running international non-profits
4. Creating multiple businesses and streams of revenue
5. Retreat planning and hosting
6. Setting business goals and going after them

The Receptionist for iPad

I want to thank The Receptionist for iPad for sponsoring this episode. From new patients faced with an empty lobby and no idea where to find their therapist to clinicians with a session running over time and the doorbell ringing, some of the most anxiety-ridden moments of a therapy appointment happen before a session even starts. The Receptionist for iPad, helps you tackle some of that pre-appointment apprehension and anxiety. The Receptionist for iPad is an easy-to-use digital client check-in system that helps your visitors check in securely to their appointments and notify their practitioners of their arrival via SMS, email, or your preferred channel. No more confusion, and less lobby checking or having clients sign in on paper logbooks. It can even help you upgrade and update your demographic information for your clients as well and even validate parking. Start a 14-day free trial of the Receptionist for iPad by going to thereceptionist.com/privatepractice. Make sure to start your trial with that link and you'll also get your first month free if you decide to sign up.
