Does your practice look busy, but the numbers tell a different story?

In this episode, Linzy is joined by Elana Sures, creator of the Client Retention System (and recent Money Skills for Group Practice Owners graduate), to talk about client retention — a key metric in both group and solo practice.

Together, they discuss what retention actually measures, why it can feel so uncomfortable for therapists and practice owners to talk...

Does your credit card feel like Monopoly money because the cash is still sitting in your bank account after you’ve made a purchase?

In this solo episode, Linzy explains why an expense occurs the moment you use your credit card — not later when you pay your credit card bill — and how paying your credit card weekly instead of waiting for the monthly statement is a simple yet powerful habit that can create greater fin...

You may have chosen to go into private practice because you wanted more freedom, only to find yourself recreating the same traditional workweek you were trying to leave behind.

When success has always looked like putting in your time, staying busy, and being available throughout the workday, stepping away from your desk can feel like playing hooky, which can be uncomfortable — even when your business is stable and your clients...

As therapists and health practitioners, caring for other people can feel automatic, while caring for yourself can feel uncomfortable, overly indulgent, or like something you will finally get to once everyone else is okay. When your work is built around caring for clients, a team, a family, and a community, continually placing yourself last is not sustainable — especially when the structure of your practice leaves little room ...

For a long time, the biggest problem therapists faced in private practice was overworking.

Burnout was a real risk during COVID — there were too many people needing care and too many therapists pushing past their own limits because there was always one more person to help.

But what if that is no longer the challenge your practice is facing?

In this “Best Of” episode, Linzy revisits her conversation with Julie Herres,...

What if your life first fee isn't just about earning more — but about creating a practice that can truly support your life?

In this podcast takeover episode, Linzy hands the mic to her biz bestie, Tiffany McLain — founder of The Lean In. MAKE BANK. Academy and host of The Money Sessions — for a bold conversation about what it really takes to build a life first fee practice.

Tiffany speaks honestly and unapologetical...

What becomes possible when you build enough financial stability in your practice to support the life you actually want?

In this “Best Of” episode, Linzy revisits her conversation with Jelisha Gatling — a therapist, Money Skills for Therapists graduate, and former MSFT coach — about what it can look like to move from financial stability into a deeper sense of freedom. Jelisha shares how she sold her belongings...

Money conversations in the therapy world often focus on getting out of scarcity — leaving agency work, raising fees, or building a sustainable private practice. But what happens after that? What happens when your financial circumstances change, but your money beliefs haven’t caught up yet?

In this episode, I’m joined by Allison Puryear, founder of Abundance Practice Building, who has supported more than 10,000 ther...

If private practice has felt harder lately, you’re not imagining it. Caseloads can take longer to fill, marketing strategies that once worked may not be working the same way, and many therapists are carrying more anxiety about money than they were a few years ago.

This week, I’m joined by Diane Webber, a coach in both Money Skills for Therapists and Money Skills for Group Practice Owners, to talk about how we’ve b...

As a therapist in private practice, there can be a moment when you realize that you are the one responsible for caring for your future financial needs.

No employer is automatically setting aside money for your retirement, your maternity leave, your next chapter, or the bigger life goals you’re holding.

In this solo episode, I walk through how to think about future-focused financial planning in a way that feels practical, com...

Many of us become therapists because we care deeply about people, not because we want to spend our days looking at business data. So, it makes sense if tracking metrics feels a little cold, overly analytical, or disconnected from the human side of the work you're doing.

But the truth is, good data can actually support you in caring for both your clients and your clinicians more effectively.

In this episode, I’m joined by Tory K...

There’s a particular kind of stress that comes with spending a large amount of money on your practice while not fully knowing if it’s paying off yet.

In today’s coaching session, I’m joined by Dana Corr—a graduate of the Money Skills for Group Practice Owners program—to explore what it means to be in an investment period inside a private practice.

Together, we unpack the tension between trusting...

Debt carries a huge emotional weight for many therapists. It’s easy to look at student loans, credit cards, or even a mortgage and interpret them as evidence that you’ve done something wrong or fallen behind financially.

Explore the idea with me that debt is not a moral issue—it’s a financial tool. The more clearly you understand both the emotional meaning and the actual cost of debt, the easier it becomes to...

There’s a point in private practice where the question shifts from “How do I fill my caseload?” to “How do I keep this sustainable?”

In this conversation, I’m joined by Kayla Das—a social worker, business coach, and host of the Designer Practice podcast—to explore how clinical supervision and consultation can become a supportive, meaningful addition to your work.

Ready to feel mor...

There’s a kind of stuckness that can show up even when everything looks “ready” on paper—the numbers work, the plan is there, and yet the decision still feels hard to make. I see this a lot when therapists are considering the move from W2 work into full-time private practice.

In my coaching conversation with Dr. Amber Vernon, a recent grad of the Money Skills for Therapists program, we explore what happens ...

Raising your fees can bring up a surprising amount of tension, especially when you care deeply about your clients and the relationship you’ve built. It’s not just about numbers; it touches values, identity, and how you hold boundaries in your work.

In this episode, I’ll walk you through a way to approach fee increases that’s grounded in your actual financial needs, while still staying connected to the kind of...

Have you been avoiding raising your fee, because you're scared to have those hard conversations with your clients? If so, this is the episode for you...

One thing I see all the time with therapists in private practice—especially around money, caseload size, and accessibility—is the pull between taking care of your clients and taking care of yourself.

In this coaching conversation, I sit down with Jessica Katz, a graduate ...

If you’ve ever felt a quiet tension between wanting your practice to support you and feeling like you shouldn’t need that… you’re not alone. This is something I see all the time with therapists—where caring deeply about clients starts to blur into overlooking your own needs. In my conversation with Tiffany McLain, we’re looking at how that pattern shows up around money, and why it can feel so un...

If money in your private practice brings up anxiety, avoidance, or that feeling of “I should have this figured out by now,” you’re not alone. Most of us were never taught how to manage money, and yet we’re running businesses that are supposed to take care of us while we take care of others. That’s a lot of pressure, and it makes sense that money can feel overwhelming.

In this episode, I’m digging ...
