#038 Are you thinking of leaving a steady job and starting your private practice, especially in a field as unique as Speech-Language Pathology? Meet Stacey Crowley, who took that leap and moved from the bustling city of Chicago to the peaceful hills of Asheville, North Carolina to open Learning Tree Literacy. As we unpack her journey, we'll discover the obstacles she faced, the lack of collaboration and resources in her previous job, and how the book The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People transformed her outlook and approach to life.
In this episode, we're going to tackle the importance of mental and physical well-being while managing a private practice. We share personal experiences, discussing the art of setting boundaries, the courage to say "no", and the process of understanding our definitions of success. We further delve into what truly motivates us - is it money, or could it be autonomy, mastery, and purpose?
Learn how Stacey transitioned from accounting to Speech-Language Pathology, and explore the growing importance of emotional intelligence, communication, and restorative practices within both corporate and educational settings. Our conversation is packed with insights, resources, and anecdotes that could help you redefine your career path or boost your entrepreneurial journey.
