The theme of this season of the Entrepreneurial Clinician Podcast has been to equip allied health professionals to make more informed decisions about what support they need in their practice so they can thrive, rather than just survive.
So in the final episode of Season 3, Jo reflects on one of the most common questions asked by allied health professionals; how do I find a coach?
But before you think about looking for a coach, Jo has a question for you. A question you should consider and know the answer to before you seek out a coach.
Plus she explores a question you should be considering if you are running a course or workshop.

Many allied health professionals look to coaching as a way to diversify and maximise their income. But what is the distinction between coaching and therapy and what are some of the pitfalls for therapists who want to offer coaching services?
That’s the topic of this week’s conversation with Patrick Casale. After serving the community as a mental health professional for over a decade, Patrick began to leverage his ability to build and create authentic relationships to launch a successful 7-figure group practice and private coaching business. He is now a speaker, retreat planner, podcast host and business strategist.
In this conversation, Jo and Patrick discuss:
- What is the difference between therapy and coaching, and how to recognise the boundary between the two,
- What is coaching in the context of private practice and how it’s different from therapy,
- The pitfalls commonly faced by therapists who seek to add coaching to their practice,
- How the lack of accountability in coaching can put both you and your client at risk, and
- The top 3 things health professionals need to pay attention to now, and in the future.

When it comes to marketing your practice, questions about the need and value of headshots are very common. So in this episode, Jo is joined by John Lindroth who is a specialised headshot photographer.
Jo and John discuss the surprising problem with selfies, why the angle of your headshot can affect how much you are trusted by your audience and (potential) clients, why getting your friend who has a good camera to take your headshots isn’t enough if you want to build a trusted and successful practice and why it’s important to keep them up to date.
John has a Bachelor’s Degree in Biology and Computer Science from Juniata College, and a Master’s Degree in Biomedical Computing from the Medical University of South Carolina. He spent the first 25 years of his career as a programmer. John has spent the last 10 years in the behavioural health field as an office manager in his wife’s group practice. As a photographer, John started shooting professionally in 2010, with the subject matter of “anything but weddings”. As the pandemic started coming to an end in 2021, he decided to focus all his interest on headshot photography.

It’s hard enough to build and run a sustainable and successful practice. But how do you do that when you have a neurodiverse brain and the tactics and advice often given about running a practice aren’t designed for the way your brain operates? And how do you make sure your practice is more diverse and accessible to those who are neurodivergent?
That’s the question we explore in this week’s episode when Jo is joined by Amber Hawley. Amber is a licensed therapist and business mentor who helps ‘neurospicy’ (as she likes to call it) business owners get $hit done in a sustainable way that decreases the risk of burnout and increases satisfaction, profitability and overall happiness.
In this conversation, Jo and Amber discuss:
- Amber’s experience of being diagnosed with ADHD in her 40s
- The importance of self-acceptance
- The ways allied health professionals can unintentionally reinforce shame-based judgements,
- The importance of understanding the need to adapt business tactics to fit your brain, rather than trying to adapt your brain to fit the tactics, and
- The advice she would give to allied health professionals to help them support neurospicy clients.
You can find out more about Amber at her websites https://amberhawley.com/ and www.stilldistracted.com (website coming soon) or listen to her podcasts, the Easily Distracted Entrepreneur and the Easily Distracted Therapist wherever you are listening to this.
