26. The Most Expensive Decision Therapists Keep Making
Manage episode 502571156 series 3666736
If you’ve been telling yourself, “I’ll start marketing when…”—this episode is your wake-up call. Whether it’s the economy, your confidence, or your calendar, it’s easy to delay the hard stuff. But waiting for the perfect moment to market your practice is one of the costliest decisions you can make.
In this episode, I’m unpacking the most common objections I hear from therapists about why they’re holding off on marketing—and offering some grounded reframes to help you move forward. Because just like healing in therapy, growth in your business starts with one brave step.
You don’t need to wait until you feel perfectly ready. And you don’t need to do everything at once. But you do need to decide. If you’ve been stuck in indecision, this is your invitation to choose action—imperfect, courageous action—so you can finally start building the practice you want.
Here’s what you’ll learn in this episode:
1️⃣ Why “waiting until the time is right” keeps your practice stuck—and what to do instead
2️⃣ The real cost of putting off your marketing (it’s not just lost clients—it’s lost confidence)
3️⃣ How to reframe fears about money, time, and readiness so you can move forward with clarity
