Have you ever felt like your website should be getting you inquiries—but it’s just sitting there like a pretty business card nobody’s picking up? In this episode, I share the behind-the-scenes of testing one of my own lead magnets with women in private practice, and what I discovered about why so many therapists struggle to implement even the simplest website strategies. I take you inside the real feedback I got when I gave away a step-by-step guide to improving websites. Three different therapists told me they had already done everything inside my resource—but when I checked their websites, none of them had. This opened up a powerful reflection on why we often think we’re doing the right things, but we’re actually missing what matters. And it’s not laziness—it’s desensitization, imposter syndrome, or just being too close to our own work to see it clearly. You’ll also hear about how identity and mindset play just as big a role in client attraction as strategy does. I’ll walk you through what to do when you feel stuck, how to use clarity as a tool, and why sometimes it’s not about learning more strategies, but embodying the belief that you can actually have what you want.
