It’s rare that anyone tells us what it really takes to run a private practice. In fact, the whole concept of business ownership may be a bit of a mystery - and that’s a sad fact.

So some really gifted healers avoid opening a practice - starting a business - because the whole idea feels so intimidating to them. And yet, the world needs what they have to offer…

And others dive-in wholeheartedly only to find out that the hours are long, the pay maybe not so great, and the responsibility is way more than they were ready for.

This matters.

Knowing what you’re getting into can help you make a better decision for sure, but it can also help you avoid - or at least understand - some of the challenges that you’re bound to face when you hang out a shingle.

So let’s talk about some of the more common reasons why you might NOT want to start a practice first.

Besides, it's good to know what you’re getting into, right?

Of course it is. 😉
