About Nicole McCance:

I used to be you.

I was in private practice for 15 years. I loved what I did and felt honoured that I got to help people every day and make a decent living. After years of doing this, I was beginning to feel drained and sick of working evenings and weekends. There was so little time left over in the day to take care of myself or my family.

I am a mom of young twin boys, and wanted to provide them with an amazing life – but I also longed to be home more.

I needed to find a better way.

Trading my time for money was never going to give me the freedom I craved. I realized I needed to work differently. In 2018, I opened a group practice in Toronto, and within three years, I was able to grow to 55 therapists! This experience taught me a lot about what to do and what not to do. Most importantly, it taught me to create systems that would automate and grow my business. After 5 years, I sold my practice, and in my fifth year, I retired as a Psychologist and became a business coach for therapists!
