The Profitable Practice
“They didn’t teach me this sh*t in school” is a phrase myself and many other healers who have opened their own businesses have yelled out in frustration at one time or another. In my book, The Profitable Practice: Helping Healing Professionals Build and Grow a Successful Business, I have created a step-by-step guide that helps healers through the process of starting a business, teach them how to run it like a business and actually make money to live the lifestyle they want.
