Running Profitably, While Not Being A Slave To Your Business - with Leesa Tuffnell (Ep 16)

In this episode of NDIS Provider Growth Journey, Michael Clark sits down with Leesa from The Mindful OT—a business coach helping occupational therapists and sole traders build businesses that don’t burn them out.

Leesa isn’t chasing hustle culture. She’s designing her business around school bells, energy levels, and a guilt-free mindset—and teaching others to do the same.

💬 In this episode:

How to stop being a bad boss to yourself

Building your business around your real life

Setting kind KPIs that don’t punish you

Why spreadsheets are actually liberating

Reframing unmet goals as feedback, not failure

If you're an NDIS provider, allied health pro, or sole trader feeling overwhelmed, this is your permission slip to slow down, realign, and build smarter.
