If you’ve ever wondered what it actually takes to grow a 7-figure group private practice, this episode may surprise you. The truth is, the biggest drivers of practice growth aren’t strategies or tactics alone. They’re the practice mindset decisions you’re willing to make long before the revenue ever shows up.

In this episode, I walk you through how I built my own 7-figure group private practice, why hitting that milestone wasn’t my original goal, and the unexpected mindset shifts for success that made it possible. I share the behind-the-scenes reality of scaling a practice without abandoning your values, why revenue is not the same as profit, and how your internal limits often cap your external practice growth before systems ever do.

This is a candid look at the practice mindset shifts that allowed me to stop playing small, trust myself as a CEO, and build a group private practice that supports my life, my family, and the level of care I want clients to receive.

What’s covered:

1. Why practice growth often stalls because of unexamined beliefs rather than lack of strategy
2. The difference between revenue and profit in a sustainable group private practice
3. How practice mindset influences hiring, expansion, and leadership decisions
4. The hidden mindset shifts for success required to move past self-imposed ceilings
5. Why surrounding yourself with entrepreneurs ahead of you accelerates practice growth
6. How identity shifts impact your ability to lead a growing group private practice
7. What it really means to “try” at a higher level without burning out
8. How long-term practice mindset work supports ethical, values-aligned scale

If you’re serious about building a group private practice that lasts, grows, and feels aligned, this episode will help you rethink what’s actually required. Sustainable practice growth starts with intentional practice mindset shifts, and when those mindset shifts for success happen first, everything else becomes possible.

I want to talk about one of the most impactful decisions I have made as a practice owner and CEO. I intentionally learn business from entrepreneurs outside therapy, and it has fundamentally changed how I think, lead, and grow my practice. This episode is a behind-the-scenes look at why stepping outside our industry and attending business retreats with non-therapists has helped me scale more sustainably and with far less burnout.

In this episode, I share why relying only on therapist entrepreneurs can create an echo chamber and how choosing to learn business from people outside therapy has helped me grow my practice in ways I never could have imagined. I also talk about my experience attending business retreats with entrepreneurs from completely different industries and why those environments accelerated my growth as a CEO.

Key topics I cover in this episode

• Why choosing to learn business from entrepreneurs outside therapy expands my thinking and helps me grow my practice faster

• How attending business retreats with non-therapists challenged my money mindset and normalized profitability

• What I learned about systems leadership and scalability from entrepreneurs outside therapy

• How stepping into rooms outside therapy helped me grow my practice without working more hours

• Why business retreats offer clarity, creativity, and strategy that therapist spaces often cannot

• How intentionally choosing to learn business beyond our field creates long-term confidence and CEO level decision making

If you want to grow my practice with more clarity, confidence, and sustainability, this episode will challenge you to learn business differently, consider opportunities outside therapy, and rethink the power of business retreats as a strategic investment.

In this episode of the Worth It Practice Podcast, I’m talking to Randall Avery about something we don’t discuss nearly enough in private practice: what happens when your business actually becomes profitable.

So many clinicians dream about reaching the point where they can finally pay yourself, and then feel anxious, guilty, or overwhelmed the moment it happens. If you’ve ever wondered why being profitable in private practice can feel so scary, you are not alone.

I’m joined by certified financial planner Randall Avery, who works specifically with practice owners, to talk through the emotional and practical side of practice finance. We explore what it means to build real financial stability as a therapist, how to think about profit without shame, and what to do after you pay yourself for the first time.

We talk about:

1. Why therapists are often uncomfortable with being profitable
2. The mindset shift required to truly pay yourself as a private practice owner
3. How long years of under-earning shape our relationship with practice finance
4. What responsible wealth-building looks like in private practice
5. How profit can actually support burnout prevention, better care, and a fuller life

If you’ve reached, or are approaching, the point where your private practice is generating real profit, and you don’t know what to do next, this conversation will help you feel grounded, informed, and less alone.

Being profitable doesn’t mean you’re doing something wrong. It means your business is working, and you deserve to learn how to let that be true.
