Why haven't you launched your private practice?

Imposter syndrome, perfectionism, and the fear of "what if I fail?"

If this is you, we built something designed to get you out of that rut.

A 6-week intensive that tackles the REAL barriers (hint: it's not the business plan or insurance panels, it's what's happening in your head)
What you'll walk away with: → Crystal clarity on your "why" → Tools to work through vulnerability & authenticity blocks → A roadmap that honors YOUR unique therapeutic voice → Connection with other practitioners on the same journey

The reality check: We went from 1 therapist to 13 clinicians delivering 13,500+ sessions last year. Not because we're special, but because we learned to get out of our own way.

This isn't for everyone.

❌ If you want a quick fix or magic formula, skip this

❌ If you're not ready to examine what's really holding you back, not for you

✅ If you're ready to stop making excuses and start making moves, let's talk

Limited to 8 participants max. We're not trying to pack a stadium—we're building a transformation pod.

Ready to stop dreaming and start building?
