208 - The Mindset Shifts Every Therapist Needs to Build a Thriving Private Practice

Grad school taught you how to be a great therapist. But running a business? That's a whole different skill set — and it starts with mindset.

In this episode, Daniel sits down with Dr. Charmain Jackman, award-winning psychologist, TEDx speaker, founder of InnoPsych, and author of The Black Therapist's Guide to Private Practice and Entrepreneurship. They unpack the mindset shifts that move therapists from "I can't run a business" to building a practice that actually supports their life.

You'll learn:

• Why grad school leaves most clinicians unprepared for the business side — and how to fix it
• How to uncover your "money story" and stop letting it limit your growth
• The three biggest mindset blocks that keep therapists stuck (and how to push through)
• Why launching imperfect almost always beats waiting for perfect
• The cultural messages around self-promotion that hold therapists back from marketing

Whether you're just starting out or trying to grow, this conversation will give you a fresh lens on what it takes to build a thriving practice.
