Abundant Practice PodcastAbundant Practice PodcastEpisode #671: How To Not Screw Up Your Practice Starting a practice? Watch for your old patterns.   In today’s Ask Allison, I share how building a business brings up old stuff—perfectionism, over-functioning, avoidance, you name it. It’s not new, just newly visible. I’ll walk you through how to spot your patterns, what to do when you hit a wall, and how to shift into a more sustainable way of working.   Sponsored by TherapyNotes®: Use promo code Abundant for 2 months free    Grab our free tools to grow your practice—weekly worksheets, the Tasky Checklist, and more: www.abundancepracticebuilding.com/links   Ready to fill your practice fast...2025-07-2608 minAbundant Practice PodcastAbundant Practice PodcastEpisode #669: How Generosity Leads To More Referrals Trying to fill your practice?

In today’s Ask Allison, I talk about how to stop spinning out over “growth” and start getting clear. You don’t need a five-year plan. You need to know what kind of growth you’re after—more income, more time, a new revenue stream? Each one has a different path. Start with your “why,” then break your goal into micro-steps and actually schedule them. What doesn’t get scheduled doesn’t happen. And remember: ambitious is great, but realistic wins every time.

You’re not alone. In today’s Ask Allison, I talk about why you don’t need to justify your approach to everyone—and how to connect with the clients it’s actually for. Instead of leading with your method, speak to their experience. Talk about the stuckness, the frustration, the sense that talk therapy didn’t go deep enough. That’s what makes people feel seen—and curious. You don’t need to explain everything. You just need to show them you get it.

You’re not alone.   In today’s Ask Allison, I’m talking about how fear shows up in private practice—whether it’s cold emailing, pricing your services, or putting yourself out there—and how to stop letting it call the shots. I’ll share how I’ve learned to treat fear as a sign of growth, not a stop sign.   If fear has been holding you back, this one’s for you. Let’s talk about building a tolerance to it and using it to move forward—one small step at a time.   Spon...2025-06-2808 minAbundant Practice PodcastAbundant Practice PodcastEpisode #660: How To Change Your Niche Thinking about switching your niche but not sure where to start?

In fact, trying to do it all might be what’s keeping you stuck.   We’re talking about what’s actually working in this market, why clarity beats complexity, and the marketing strategies every therapist needs to focus on right now.   Prefer video?

If you've ever sat down to relax only to remember an email you didn’t send or a task you didn’t check off, you're not alone—and you're not failing. We’ll talk about why this "I'll relax when it's all done" mindset is a trap, how it's hurting your freedom (yep, the same freedom you started your business for), and what y...2025-05-3108 minAbundant Practice PodcastAbundant Practice PodcastEpisode #652: Marketing In This EconomyWondering why it’s suddenly so much harder to fill your practice?
