  • Sooo helpful!

    I closely relate to the stories of these therapists, and it’s helping me work through my own financial anxiety! I hadn’t looked at leaving insurance for so long because I felt obligated to be there for my clients (even through my own burnout), but now I feel much more empowered to make some of these hard decisions around raising my fees! Thank you, Tiffany and everyone at LIMB!

  • Mandatory Curriculum for Peer Counselors & Therapists

    It always joyful and inspiring to listen to each episode of the money sessions. There is a story that everyone can relate to because providers from all walks of life are generously sharing their path to charging premium fees and taking care of themselves all while breaking generational patterns to do so. Tiffany does not hold back and challenges each participant with thought provoking questions that get straight to the heart of the matter. You get to see money work live in action! This is high v... more

  • Dose of encouragement

    I LOVE this podcast. I love Tiffany’s passion about supporting therapists to go self-pay, charging premium fees, and having the practice you want. She clearly has a well developed approach, and a wonderful communicator. I have been going private pay for way too long, and finally did it. But I keep listening to every new podcast, because I find another dose of encouragement, reassurance, and clarity on my journey. I already work with a practice consultant (when I realized I couldn’t do it on... more

  • Get real, please

    Every one of your guests seems to say that the transition to private practice or to private pay (& off insurance) is super easy. Yes, there are tough moments but now they think they were just little bumps in the road. Okay, great, that’s great that you feel it now, but that’s NOT where we are.

    We, those who are on the side of facing the possibility of not having enough clients or other risks, those seem like *mountains*. Can you and your guests take us through that process? Surely all of you ex... more
