It’s natural to try & cut corners where you can as you’re getting started building your practice, but accepting a friend or family rate from a buddy who says they can help build your website might cost you more in the long run. Cutting corners sometimes means you’re missing vital pieces of your marketing materials (a wonky website, really unflattering photos, a logo that looks like a duck playing the trumpet even though it’s really some trees & your initials). Now you have to give feedback to someone who did you a favor or didn’t charge you their full rate. So what do you do? Check out this week’s Ask Allison for some tips on navigating the murky waters of the friends & family discount.

Being able to engage in hard, uncomfortable conversations is part of being a clinician. What allows you to empathize with one client but not another? LaToya C. Smith, LPC-S joins me today to talk with us about inclusion and anti-racism in your private practice. LaToya talks about where we screw up and do it wrong when we’re trying so hard to have the “right kind” of race conversations, the undoing power of being defensive, and believing and trusting our clients of color when they talk about their experiences. From private practice and seeing clients, to group practice and managing clinicians, LaToya discusses the importance of admitting discomfort around the big conversations about white supremacy, privilege, and race, and the misleading ideology of the “safe space”. We encourage all listeners who have benefited from LaToya’s time on this podcast to contribute to her by donating to Women in Power Empowering.

Last spring, Shatara Sheppard offered to share her experiences with police brutality and racial profiling and how it impacted her daily life as both a clinician and as a woman of color. I’m so glad to welcome her back to the podcast to discuss healing, and the ways white therapists can keep going because the work is definitely not done. The world has changed in the few short months since Shatara’s first visit to the podcast, but it’s also stayed the same in many ways we should be aware of. Shatara shares her story of healing, and we discuss how white therapists can learn from sitting in the discomfort of hard feelings and use that discomfort to motivate their self-education. We also discuss the rhetoric we still see too commonly in agency work, and mostly, we discuss hope. If you appreciate Shatara's time on our podcast, listeners can show appreciation for her here.

Congratulations! You’re starting your private practice! Now you’re just so excited to get all these new ideas out into the world. But what do you do now, and what do you save for later? We tend to get caught up in the idea of doing all the things. Mostly because we’re excited for something new and because agency life teaches us that we’ve got to be doing all the things - o be worthy of a raise, a promotion, job security, and mobility. Once you start your private practice, you get to decide what you do now and what you do later (after getting solid on your niche and getting a killer website up, of course!). Tune in with me and Abundance Party Member Amy as we get those good ideas in order.
