You're about to hear how EbonyJanice Moore has dreamed herself free in life and business. You'll be different after you hear from her.
You'll hear the 80/20 rule that she lives by (and no, it's not the one you've probably heard of before).
You'll also hear how she identifies her trusted collaborators, why making millions of dollars is where she's headed very quickly, and how she builds and manages her team in a truly caring way.
How do you build a team within a joy centered and decolonized business?
To answer this question, I've brought you none other than Thea Monyeé!
I’m gonna ask listeners who haven’t already discovered Thea Monyeé's work to go listen to the Shaping The Shift Podcast and explore MarleyAyo and The Blacker The Brain and the Free Joy Experience. So go do all that and then come back.
The way Thea Monyeé runs her company is so brilliant.
The part I want to focus on today is how she builds her team.
How do you move towards healing and liberation while creating the business of your dreams?
I wanted to explore this question with someone who centers these values in their work.
Asher Pandjiris is a white, queer, non-binary psychotherapist, parent to a human and two rescue pups, group facilitator and host of the Living in this Queer Body podcast. They live and work on stolen Nipmuc and Pocomtuc land.
Are you a therapist thinking about making the switch to coaching?
Maybe you want to be known for something you care deeply about and get to help people all over the world with that thing. Switching to coaching can be part of making that possible.
How do you start?
What does that transition look and feel like?
If you make that switch, what will people think?
Don't people think coaches are flakey? Will they think that about you?
This week I'm talking to someone who did all that and built a profitable and joyful business over the past five years.
My guest is Megan Hale, Profit First®️ Business Strategist, Former Psychotherapist, and Money Mentor for equity driven entrepreneurs.
How do you create an incredibly valuable and thriving membership community?
As you're about to hear, it takes planning, intention, care and the willingness to experiment.
You're about to get a masterclass on creating a community from Erica Courdae, co-founder along with India Jackson of the Pause On the Play Community: a hub of entrepreneurs and change-makers connecting at the intersection of values and visibility.
My guest today made a move that opened the floodgates and helped her give herself permission to get more creative, honest, and courageous in her work.
That move was expanding from only having a therapy practice into also starting a coaching business.
As you're listening, ask yourself what you're longing to give yourself persmission to step into. I encourage you to take that longing seriously.
My guest is Caitlin Olsen, a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist as well as a coach. Caitlin is also working on a mental health memoir while building her online course library.
What do you do to package yourself up and make yourself acceptable or popular?
What would it be like to be more yourself in every single place you show up?
How would it impact your business to move further in this direction?
In this week's podcast episode, I dive into those questions with Michelle Markwart Deveaux. Michelle works with voice professionals to become the people they need to be in order to run the businesses they want to create.
Michelle runs a thriving business with a lot of clients and a large audience. When she was just a year in, she ran a 30-day experiment. She tried showing up 100% as herself everywhere.
I've already talked to some of you about this episode. You've probably already seen the title. Burn your therapy license.
Let me explain. Before you decide I've taken this all WAY too far.
I'm talking about symbolically burning your therapy license. As an exercise.
It may seem extreme, but over these years of helping therapists expand beyond private practice, I've discovered that THIS is sometimes your biggest obstacle.
What will YOUR signature program look like? How will you create it?
One of the best ways for you to understand how you'll get there is to hear the stories of entrepreneurs who have taken their gifts and turned them into online programs.
My guest this week shares how she created a successful online group program using a ton of intuition as well as experience.
Meet Michelle Irving. She's best known for 2 areas of work: helping women find Feminine Maturity and guiding women into the Sacred Power of Illness. She's been bed bound twice in the last decade with serious illness herself. She now mentors women around the world.
This week I'm talking to Lindsay Bryan-Podvin, a biracial financial therapist, speaker, and author. In her clinical practice, she helps people get their mind and money in balance. She's also expanded her services to help private practice therapists grow sustainable practices from the inside out.
Last time Lindsay was on Rebel Therapist Podcast was almost exactly a year ago. Check out Lindsay's episode on December 3rd, 2019 about creating and launching her first scaled offer. It's a popular and valuable episode! Here it is. https://rebeltherapist.me/podcast/113
You don't have to create your business based on what's already been done. In this moment, there's no excuse to create your business by default.
How do you create a new vision for what your business will look like?
That's the question I'm tackling today. Our guest, Michelle Auerbach, is an author and consultant for entrepreneurs and organizations. She suggests mining science fiction for some of that vision.
When is it time to take a brave step in your business? My guest is Jelisha Gatling. She helps therapists make the brave move of leaving their jobs and jumping all the way into private practice.
I help therapists, healers and entrepreneurs take the brave step of creating a business beyond a traditional private practice.
So we discovered that we have a lot in common. We both help people get ready enough to do scary things, and then we hold their hands while they leap.
One thing we both know through personal experience is that you can't wait until you're ready to take a brave step. You can only be ready enough.
In this conversation, Jelisha shares how it's been for her to take the brave step of creating a business for therapists.
