218. Building a Life You Love with Multiple Income Streams with Lisa Bodenstein

Building multiple income streams as a traveling therapist isn't just a financial strategy; it's how some clinicians make the whole lifestyle actually work. In this episode of The Traveling Therapist Podcast, I sit down with Lisa Bodenstein, a therapist, coach, and clinical supervisor who has been doing this since 2012, long before online therapy was even a thing. Based in Italy, originally from South Africa, trained in the UK, she has figured out how to keep practicing across borders while building a life that genuinely fits her.Lisa shares how she navigated international licensing across three countries, why having multiple income streams took the financial pressure off her client work, and what it looks like to build offerings that come from real lived experience. From a supervision community to an ADHD book in progress to a creative retreat space in rural Italy, she's a great example of what's possible when you stop waiting for permission to do things differently.In This Episode, We Explore…How Lisa has practiced across South Africa, the UK, and Italy since 2012, and what she learned about navigating licensing along the way.Why building multiple income streams gives traveling therapists more flexibility and less pressure around client work.Her clinical specialty in womb twin survivors, and how an ultra-specific niche can attract clients without heavy marketing.The Brew and Do Supervision Crew, her community for therapists to get accountable and get things done together.Her book in progress, You, Me, and This Thing Called ADHD, and how her own ADHD diagnosis shapes how she works and travels.Using TrustedHouseSitters as a low-cost way to explore new destinations while keeping a home base.Connect with Lisa Bodenstein:https://www.lisabodenstein.online/https://www.skool.com/brew-and-do-supervision-crew-9236/abouthttps://forbodymindandsoul.com/https://wombtwinsurvivor.com/https://www.instagram.com/forbodymindandsoul/BnB: https://www.booking.com/hotel/it/sonic-alchemy.it.html?utm_source=copilot.comRecording studio: https://sonicalchemy.it https://www.lisabodenstein.online/Are you ready to take the plunge and become a Traveling Therapist?
