Starting a small business is PAINFUL. The combination of constant questioning, pain, and a lot of imposter syndrome is the perfect recipe for entrepreneurship. Too many people try, fail, give up, and chalk it up to \"no one can be successful.\"\nOn the flip side, the ability to take risks, pivot, learn from mistakes, and authentically show up allows you to create the business that you've always dreamed of. If you can work through the very real struggles of small business startup, you can absolutely be successful.\nIn this episode of the All Things Private Practice Podcast, I talk with a good friend and visionary in the private practice coaching field, Allison Puryear. Allison is the owner and founder of Abundance Practice Building, helping more than 10,000 therapists start and grow their businesses throughout the country.\nAllison and I talk about:\n\nHer journey from Georgia to Seattle to Asheville and her struggles along the way\n\nHer creation of Abundance Practice Building \u2014 from a small idea to a household name\n\nHow showing up authentically attracts your ideal clients\n\nThe concept of abundance: there's enough to go around\n\nHow it's OK to struggle with small business startup... and how to work through the struggle\n\nWays to combat imposter syndrome so you don't convince yourself that reaching your goals isn't possible\n\n\n-------------------------------------------------------\n\ud83c\udf99\ufe0f Listen to more episodes of the All Things Private Practice Podcast here: www.allthingspractice.com/all-things-private-practice-podcast\n\ud83c\udf99\ufe0fSpotify: atppod.com/spotify\n\ud83c\udf99\ufe0fApple Podcasts: atppod.com/apple\n\ud83c\udf99\ufe0fGoogle Podcasts: atppod.com/google\n\ud83d\udde8\ufe0f Join the All Things Private Practice FB Community: www.facebook.com/groups/privatepracticebuilding\n----------------------------\nA Thanks to Our Sponsor!\nI would also like to thank Spruce Health for sponsoring this episode.\nSpruce Health is a HIPAA compliant app for phone, text, fax, and telehealth.\nTheir customer service is fantastic, and their staff has the mission of not only making it easier on us as practitioners and practice owners but also easy for our clients to make sure that their communication is protected.

As you prepare for the new year as a private practice owner, one area of your business where you might be able to level up your client experience is from the moment that they enter your office and check in with you. For many private practices, the client check-in process can be a bit awkward and confusing. Clients often enter into an empty waiting room. And chances are you're wrapping up a session with someone else, so there's no way of knowing when they arrive. With a visitor management system like The Receptionist for iPad, you can provide clients with a discreet and secure way to check in for their appointment while instantly being notified of their arrival. What's more, The Receptionist offers an iPad list check-in option where clients can scan a QR code to check in, which negates the need for you to buy an iPad and stand. Go to thereceptionist.com/privatepractice and sign up for a free 14-day trial. When you do, you'll get your first month free. And don't forget to ask about our iPad list check-in option.\nVisit the website for The Receptionist for iPad here!","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300,"thumbnail_url":"https://artwork.captivate.fm/2b3a26bc-2824-4d22-8842-3e938f1a2b19/60854458c4d1acdf4e1c2f79c4137142d85d78e379bdafbd69bd34c85f5819ad.jpg"}
