Ep 112: Surviving Summer: Setting Boundaries Without Guilt as a Mom & Therapist

In this episode, I’m getting real about what it actually looks like to be a mom and a therapist in private practice during the summer. If your days are filled with snack requests, sibling squabbles, and piles of laundry while you try to keep your business running—you’re not alone. I’m right there with you, and I’m diving deep into the messy realities, hard emotions, and the powerful truths we need to hear. I talk about the real-life tug-of-war between motherhood and maintaining a business during these unpredictable months, and the heavy mental load that comes with it. I’ll share what it’s like to juggle it all, why setting boundaries is so hard (but necessary), and why scaling back doesn’t mean you’re failing. Consider this your reminder that honoring where you are—and respecting your limits—can actually strengthen your life and your practice.Whether you're just starting out or years in but feeling disconnected, these insights—and the Ideal Practice Blueprint workbook—are here to help you reconnect with your vision and your well-being, one intentional step at a time.For more structure and guidance, my Built to Run course can help you set up your online practice with clarity and confidence.
