Don’t Compare Your Beginning to Someones Else’s Middle | ep. 38

In today’s episode of the Fearless Practitioners podcast, I discuss my thoughts about comparing yourself to others when starting a private practice.

Don’t compare your beginning to someones else’s middle!

We all know your first pancake is going to suck – so why in the world would you ever think that your first few months at starting a private practice would be any different??

Comparison is real and we all do it, and it can be so damaging!

Today I get real about the truth of starting a practice, or heck, starting anything new in your life, and how there needs to be a shift in your mindset to realize your goals.

TOPICS DISCUSSED IN THIS EPISODE:

Achieving ANY goal is hard will take time, dedication and a willingness.
Where you are is where you are, and where you are is good!
Comparison only drops confidence, it does NOT build up your success.

"Adrien has been one of the most effective business coaches I've worked with (and I've invested quite a bit of money in business coaching and course!). During our coaching, I have been navigating a lot of changes and growth in my practice. I often start our calls feeling a little scattered but I always leave a coaching session feeling calm and focused on the next steps I need to take. Adrien is so effective at helping me focus in on the most important parts of a business growth decision (like adding an office location or hiring an employee) and is skilled at acknowledging the objective and subjective pieces of that decision. She has extensive experience in running a large, successful group practice so I trust I'm in good hands as I work on growing my own! Adrien provides great coaching, guidance and accountability to her clients. Highly recommend!"

“Adrien is the ultimate package. With ED supervision and savvy business coaching, I have been able to surpass expectations for my private practice. Being a part of her Boss Club and weekly casework groups, I get both my business & clinical questions answered fast. I constantly feel supported, grounded, motivated and overall inspired so I can be a better clinician for my clients. I am not someone who needs a lot of handholding, but I do thrive being on a team. So when I heard it can be lonely going solo into private practice, I did some digging, found Adrien and have thankfully never felt alone.”
