Emily Hussey was not daunted when she put her private practice dreams on hold to focus on her family and her important work as a school SLP. She patiently drew up a plan, interviewed others, carefully researched the needs of her area and accumulated helpful resources. She also credits the Start Your Private Practice community with essential support. Now Emily is combining her passion for nutrition and wellness, her extensive experience with school-age children, and her know-how for developing multimedia presentations into a successful private practice.
Here’s What We Discuss:
- How joining The Start Your Private Practice System led her to put her goals into motion
- Jena’s strong advocacy for multiple streams of income as a private practitioner
- Her discovery of a jaw-dropping waitlist that jumpstarted her new career
- How she is pursuing becoming an expert presenter in her community for all parents
- Her profound advice to other SLPs who hesitate to leave their jobs as employees
