HHW Therapists 40 - Should Therapists Add Coaching?

Amanda gets into one of the most common questions she hears from therapists: should you add coaching to your practice? This isn't a vague "it depends" answer. She walks through the real pros and cons, what therapists consistently get wrong when making this decision, and the four questions you need to answer before you build anything. The pros are genuine: more creative freedom, higher income ceiling, and the ability to use more of what you already know. But the cons are just as real. Protecting your license, unpredictable ROI, client expectations, and the reality of building a second business from scratch all deserve serious thought. If you've been on the fence about adding coaching, this is the honest conversation you actually needed.

HHW Therapists 37 - From Solo to $2M (And Almost Burned It Down)

Amanda sits down with Dr. Anahita Banoo Lake-Khosravi, a Denver-based psychologist who built a group practice from scratch, scaled to nine therapists and over two million dollars in revenue, and recently sold it. In this conversation, Anahita gets real about what it actually takes to scale a group practice with intention, why so many practice owners end up wanting to burn it all down, and how the work of stepping into a leadership role surfaces personal stuff no one warns you about. She and Amanda dig into pay structure pitfalls, the mindset work that separates people who get results from those who don't, and why what you decide to do today doesn't have to be what you're doing five years from now. They also talk about what it means to build a business as a woman of color and how representation in this space goes way deeper than just optics. About Anahita: Anahita is a psychologist, former group practice owner, and mom of three. She built and scaled her group practice to $2 million in three years before selling it. She now coaches other therapists to scale a group practice to increase profit while decreasing their workload. She believes wholeheartedly that therapists deserve to make a shit ton of money, because let's be real, who better to be making a lot of money than therapists, without feeling bad about it or without feeling like they have to work 60 hour weeks in order to deserve it. In her free time, she loves to lift weights, go outside, and spend time with her family.
