Loneliness in Private Practice
Y’all may know I’m an outgoing extravert. I love, love, love being with people. Going into business for myself was not exactly the smartest social move I could make, or so I thought as I was planning my first full time practice. I feared I would wither away in my office by myself. I feared the lack of meetings (which I hated) and the few minutes in between sessions chatting with colleagues would wear on me and I’d be like a hermit during work hours. Then I’d come home to a studying husband who m…
Guest Blog: How to Make Weekly Blogging Ridiculously Easy and Fun
How to Make Weekly Blogging Ridiculously Easy and Fun by Natalie Moore
As private practitioners, we know the benefits of blogging for our practice.
1) It builds our website’s S.E.O., making it easier for our ideal client to find us.
2) It helps clients get to know us, starting the therapeutic relationship before a phone call is even made.

Y’all there’s so little in our lives that’s life or death except literal life and death. And so much, especially in the stressful business moments, feels like it.
As I write this, our friends in Texas are facing what feels like insurmountable rep…

The Smart Way to Talk About Clients
A couple weekends ago, while at my favorite breakfast place with my family, I somehow heard the conversation going on at the table next to me. I say “somehow” because if you’ve ever gone to breakfast with a 1.5 year old, a 4 year old, and a partner you like to talk to in a restaurant that has a line before it opens, you know eavesdropping isn’t an easy thing to do.

Guest Blog: What Happens When You Decide To Write a Book
I've admired Mercedes Samudio's social media savvy for years. She's built an amazing platform around Shame Proof Parenting that I not only appreciate as a fellow businesswoman, but also as a parent.

Mercedes recently provided a module for the Marketing Fundamentals eCourse in the Abundance Party that's all about publishing a book so I finally got to meet her outside of Facebook and she was a…
