In this episode, I break down why enquiry dips in private practice aren’t a sign your business is falling apart, but a sign it’s time to pay attention. We dig into business patterns, emotional regulation, and the metrics that actually tell you what’s going on. You’ll learn how to audit your practice, spot the real blockers, and make grounded decisions instead of scrambling out of fear. If you want a steadier, more strategic business, this one is for you!
