A Time-Saving, Rule-Breaking Guide for Counsellors
What does giving up ironing have to do with counsellor marketing? More than you’d think!
In this episode, I talk about the invisible “shoulds” we carry, especially around marketing and how they quietly eat up your time, energy, and confidence.
We’ll look at some of the most common ones counsellors follow (often without realising), and I’ll share how to replace them with something that actually works for you.
In This Episode, You’ll Hear:
- Why “being professional” doesn’t mean being bland
- What consistency can really look like for counsellors (no daily posts needed)
- The link between personal disclosure and building trust
- What to do if you don’t have a niche yet
- Why swearing might just be your secret marketing weapon (thank you, Beccy Upton)
- How to save time and still show up without the burnout
