Creating an online program as a therapist might seem daunting, but let me tell you—it’s 100% doable, even if you’re starting from scratch! If you’ve ever caught yourself thinking, “Am I really expert enough to do this?” I’m here to remind you: Yes, you absolutely are.
In today’s episode, I’m breaking down the biggest mindset traps that keep therapists stuck and showing you how to move past them. We’ll uncover the sneaky ways imposter syndrome shows up, why perfection isn’t necessary (spoiler alert: it never is), and the signs that prove you’re more ready than you think to create your own online program.
If you’ve been dreaming about creating a bigger impact and building a sustainable income beyond the therapy room, this episode will give you the clarity and confidence to finally take that first step.
