Kelly Higdon: Rebellion = Growth

Have you been taught to believe that nonstop working is the only way to sustain and guarantee a successful business? When your creative energy starts to dwindle, how can you find your purpose and embody it again?

 

Licensed marriage and family therapist and ZynnyMe cofounder Kelly Higdon has established a business model that many of us don’t dare to dream of: she went from the kind of overwork that landed her in the hospital to taking up to four months off each year.

 

In this episode:

 

  • Kelly reveals how focusing on different aspects of her business during different seasons has completely transformed her work-life balance for the better.
  • We explore how operating with a minimalist mentality can help “clear out the clutter” and be inspiration for taking the next step toward your greater goals
  • We discuss the importance of knowing the difference between “good push and bad push” and how to know when to reevaluate your plan so it serves your higher purpose.
  • We dive into how finding the connection between what you dream of and what you are doing today is the key to unleashing your ultimate creativity.

Thanks to this week’s sponsor: Being Seen

 

Being Seen is a new therapist directory service that is dedicated to helping new potential clients find your private practice. Yes, there are other directories out there, but Being Seen is different - their skilled marketing team is building a broad network that seekers can find easily, but they’re limiting the number of therapists in the directory. That means the people seeking help don’t get overwhelmed and you’re always near the top of the list.

 

When you join the Being Seen network you get access to exclusive trainings and discounts on CEUs. And they stand behind their promise to help you grow your practice - If you're not thrilled with their service inside of one year’s time, just send an email and they'll refund your money. Find them at www.beingseen.org

 

And please note that registration is open for the Practice of Being Seen Retreat for Therapist-Healers. Coming up August 13 - 16, 2017: (Re)Vision: Explore Your Stories, Shape Your Future at the Menla Mountain Retreat in New York’s gorgeous Catskill Mountains.
