EP.360: Freedom AND Money: Designing Your Practice Around Your Life Without Sacrificing Income

Entrepreneurial Skills and Business Planning, Mindset, Money Mindset, Podcast

You want both: The freedom to design your schedule around your life AND the income that reflects your expertise. If you’ve been told you have to choose between flexibility and financial success, this episode is for you.

 

Maybe you’re the dietitian working all hours, taking calls during family time, and feeling like you’re always “on.” Or perhaps you’re afraid that setting boundaries and creating the schedule you want will cost you clients and income. What if I told you that having both freedom and money isn’t just possible –  it’s the key to sustainable success?

 

Here’s the truth that nobody talks about: The dietitians making the most money aren’t grinding themselves into the ground. They’ve figured out how to work with intention instead of desperation, how to attract clients who respect their boundaries, and how to create multiple income streams that don’t require them to be constantly available. They’ve designed businesses that serve their lives, not consume them.

 

 

WHAT YOU’LL LEARN IN THIS EPISODE

In this episode, I’m breaking down exactly how to stop choosing between the life you want and the income you deserve. This isn’t about working less and hoping for the best – it’s about working strategically so you can have both the freedom to live on your terms and the financial success that reflects your expertise. 

Here’s the breakdown: 

  • Why the “choose one or the other” mentality is keeping you stuck and attracting the wrong clients
  • The three key strategies that allow successful dietitians to have both freedom and high income
  • The 5-step practical roadmap to design your practice around your life without sacrificing money
  • Mindset shifts that separate experts from people-pleasers (and why this matters for your rates)
  • Real talk responses to every objection your brain is throwing at you about why this won’t work
