Therapists Rising Podcast
Welcome to the Therapists Rising Podcast, where we share real, raw, and behind-the-scenes stories and lessons from Therapists who are thinking outside the traditional clinical box and choosing to do things differently in their careers. I’m your host, Dr. Hayley Kelly, and I myself have made the journey from a very experienced, but burnt out and unhappy, Clinical Therapist - to a successful entrepreneur who runs a business she loves, is thriving financially, and working and living life on her own terms. Join me, and be inspired, as I speak with other Therapists who too are broadening their horizons, and experiencing more abundance, joy, and fulfilment than ever before. Together we will laugh, soak up priceless wisdom and take actionable steps, to help you transition from clinical practice to non-clinical offerings, and diversify and amplify your income - all while honouring your wellbeing and having a work-life balance. If you’re ready to be inspired and take action on your dreams, then you’re in the right place, friend. This is the Therapists Rising Podcast.

[MINI-SERIES: From Therapist to Visionary] You’ve Built the Program. Now What?
You did it.
You mapped the modules. Built the curriculum. Maybe even sold out your first launch.
Your course, program, or offer is live—and people actually bought it.
So… why do you feel so weird?
If you’re standing in that liminal space between relief and restlessness, pride and paralysis—you’re not broken. You’re expanding.
This episode kicks off our 4-part mini-series From Therapist to Visionary—an unfiltered exploration of what it really takes to scale your business as a values-led therapist.
In this first episode of 4, we’re unpacking what happens after you launch: the identity disorientation, the emotional crash, and the question no one preps you for…
“Now what?”
Because this next level?
It’s not about doing more. It’s about becoming someone new.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
- Why the post-launch “dip” is a normal (and necessary) part of growth
You’re not self-sabotaging—you’re recalibrating. - How success can trigger stuckness
Why pride and paralysis often show up together—and what that means for your nervous system. - The myth of “just scale it” and why it’s not that simple
More sales ≠ more sustainability if your business still relies on burnout to function. - How to know if you’ve built a job… or a business
Signs you’ve recreated your therapy room in digital form—and how to shift into CEO energy. - The real work of scaling: identity, structure, and sovereignty
Why your next chapter isn’t about tweaking a funnel—it’s about rewriting your role.
This Episode is for You If:
→ You’ve launched your program and are now feeling stuck, unclear, or low-key resentful
→ You’re wondering if you’ve built something sustainable—or just a new version of overgiving
→ You want to grow, but don’t know what “growth” should actually look like
→ You’re craving a business that honors your nervous system—not one that keeps you in survival mode
→ You’re ready to step into leadership—but need a container to hold you, too
