The Pursuing Private Practice Podcast with Jennifer McGurk
In this episode:
Many of you have told me that you are interested in starting an online business, or at least adding a virtual component to your practice. But many of you are just unsure of how to get started doing that.
A less intimidating way to start to think of online business is just an extension of your current practice! There are so many different ways that you can dip your toes in: you could start a group program or create digital downloads or put together an online course, for example.
Lauren joined me on this episode to share her own journey starting and growing her own online business, The Food Fight Fam. She was able to turn her passions into a thriving business that is solving a problem that she cares about: connecting HAES dietetic students. We talk about the initial development of The Food Fight Fam, how it has grown, and where it’s going in the future.
If you are an online business owner or are considering starting one, this episode is for you!
Some of the topics discussed include:
- What is The Food Fight Fam and how did it get started?
- How self-care makes you a better provider
- Listening to your gut as you build your business
- Connection and community
