All Things Private Practice Podcast Episode 16: Pink Hair, Who Cares? Be Authentically YOU! [Featuring Cindi Miller]
When you're able to be vulnerable, REAL, and authentic, you'll notice that life feels a HELL of a lot more energizing.
AUTHENTICITY is what draws people to us, especially those that align with our values and the way that we show up in the world.
People will want to work with you because of something you said, how BOLD you were, and how you stood out from the "play it safe, shows no personality, ruffles no feathers" types.
On this episode of the All Things Private Practice Podcast, I talk with my friend and colleague, Cindi Miller, about why it's so important to show up as YOURSELF in your private practice and in your small business.
We talk about:
- Why it's so important to be authentically YOU in your business and personal life
- Combatting negative beliefs that some therapists have about disclosure, authenticity, and being "real" human beings
- Why it's OK to show off your tattoos, your pink hair, and your real personality
"We have to dare to be ourselves, however frightening or strange that self may prove to be." - May Sarton

A Thanks to Our Sponsor, The Receptionist for iPad!
I would also like to thank The Receptionist for iPad for sponsoring this episode. As you prepare for the new year as a private practice owner, one area of your business where you might be able to level up your client experience is from the moment that they enter your office and check in with you. For many private practices, the client check-in process can be a bit awkward and confusing. Clients often enter into an empty waiting room. And chances are you're wrapping up a session with someone else, so there's no way of knowing when they arrive. With a visitor management system like The Receptionist for iPad, you can provide clients with a discreet and secure way to check in for their appointment while instantly being notified of their arrival. What's more, The Receptionist offers an iPad list check-in option where clients can scan a QR code to check in, which negates the need for you to buy an iPad and stand. Go to thereceptionist.com/privatepractice and sign up for a free 14-day trial. When you do, you'll get your first month free. And don't forget to ask about our iPad list check-in option.
