  • Your Resistance Isn’t About Business Logistics — It’s About Your Identity
    Mar 10 2026

    Feeling stuck in your direct care practice? Maybe leaving insurance isn’t “working” the way you thought it would. I get it—this isn’t just about logistics; it’s about identity. In this episode, I break down the four things that could be holding your practice back: controlling overhead, getting more people to know you, refining your offer, and shifting your mindset to step fully into direct care.

    Plus, I share journal prompts and practical strategies to help you reclaim your energy, grow revenue, and build a practice that actually works for you.
