    In Episode 58, Gerda continues busting the 10 Biggest Myths about group private practice.If Part 1 in Episode 57 stirred something for you, then get ready because these next five myths go even deeper. This episode is less about spreadsheets and structures, and a lot more about identity, confidence, leadership, and the permission you give yourself (or don’t give yourself) to build a group practice that actually works.Gerda unpacks the beliefs that keep capable clinicians playing small, choosing “safe” options that quietly cap their growth, and hesitating because of fear, imposter syndrome, or the judgment of others. And she replaces those myths with what she knows to be true from years of running two group practices and mentoring hundreds of group practice owners.In this Episode, you will learn (among others):The belief that keeps smart clinicians “waiting until they’re ready” and what actually creates readiness.The popular model choice that feels safer at the start but which can quietly limit stability and growth later.Why “staff drama” isn’t usually about staff and what changes when leadership gets clearer and more consistent.The personality story that stops a lot of capable owners before they even start (even though it’s not a real barrier).The unspoken judgment that makes people shrink their vision and how to lead anyway, without apologising.Who This Episode Is For:Clinicians thinking about starting a group practice but are feeling held back by self-doubt or fear.Group practice owners who want to grow sustainably, but feel stuck in comfort-based decisions.Tune in for an honest, empowering conversation that will challenge outdated beliefs and help you step into the next level of leadership so you can build a practice you can’t stop smiling about.The 2-Day In-Person 2026 Private Practice Business IntensiveFor all the details or to get your ticket CLICK HERE.
