241 - The Burnt Out Practice Owner: Uncertainty, Racism, and Burnout (Community Q&A)
“There's no one right way to be anti-racist, even though it seems that is the expectation in the world today, that there is a right way and a wrong way to do it.” - Sarah Buino
Who's ready for a very special call-in episode about practice ownership? Cast your mind back to the heyday of Loveline. I apologize if you're not of that vintage, as that's my only call-in show reference.
Are you, Dear Practice Owner, ready to stop chasing unrealistic goals, embody an anti-racist liberation mindset? Are you all set to own your weaknesses and strengths? OK, let's get into this virtual mailbag!
I've queued up two juicy questions plus one affirmation that every practice owner should have copied to a desktop sticky or irl fridge notepad. A word about my topic choices first. I chose these specifically because they're often repeated in the practice ownership conversations I've been privy to lately. And, full disclosure: I’ve agonized over the very same issues.
The commonality of these questions tells me that all y'all are searching for concise and actionable advice on evergreen pain points. Concise because who has time for complications when they've got a biz to run?! And actionable because if you don't try a different tact, you will get stuck with more of the same. I don't want that for you, your staff, or your clients.
One more thing before you hit play. I challenge you to really internalize the answers before moving into action. Investigate any tension that shows up and explore where the recommendations land for you. Hey, you'd ask the same of your clients.
If you have a burning question or a topic that you'd like to hear discussed on this series, email me at sarah@headheartbiztherapy.com or send me a DM on Instagram @headheartbiztherapy.

MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE
Wildflower Center For Emotional Health
Burnt Out Practice Owner Support Group
Hey Practice Owners!
Do you feel exhausted, over-extended, and under-appreciated?
Does the thought of returning to solo practice cross your mind from time to time (or more often)?
If so, you’re not alone.
Running a group practice is a challenging and often thankless job. And it can be hard for others to relate if they aren’t business owners too.
