4. Becoming a Psychologist Pt. 4
Today’s episode wraps up the journey I have been through to become the Licensed Psychologist I am today and where my life has taken me on this continuous path of growth and evolution.
I invite you to listen to this episode as I share some of the memories of leaving my agency work continuing on to the beginning of starting my private practice, until today.
Many emotions unravel as I talk about all the things that lead me to this moment; from reinventing how to operate my business, to trusting my gut and connecting to my inner calling, to focusing on the things that really give me joy by recognizing my season in life and learning how to move forward this way.
Through this journey I had to recognize and deal with things that you might relate to like:
- Imposter syndrome feelings from charging money.
- Struggling as a business owner, because I don’t have an entrepreneur background or example in my family.
- Living on a go-go mentality was quickly making me feel burnout to make up for all the things I felt I needed to accomplish.
I share some things that have helped me in this evolution and although it's still a work in progress it has definitely helped me have a more balanced work/family life.
- Recognizing my strengths and focusing on my expertise
- Surrounding myself with people and learning to rely on their ability to help me accomplish my goals. To which I have to say, I am very grateful for my team! Anna Olvina, my graphic designer and SM expert, Susana Romero my Podcast Audio editor, and my Podcast producer; Rossana Garcia-Stella.
- Joining mastermind programs like Kate Northrup's and Nisha Moodley's.
- Integrating systems and automatization of the programs I use for my practice and for the podcast. Some of these are; Calendly, Kajabi, Simple Practice.
- Not following every idea or impulse, learning to identify the ones that would really work with my season of life.
WHERE ARE YOU ON YOUR JOURNEY? CAN YOU IDENTIFY YOUR SEASON OF LIFE? MY HOPE FOR YOU IS THAT YOU CAN!
