Replay: Fitting Finances Into Your Self-Care: A Conversation with Linzy Bonham

As we shared last month, we are busily working on a new format for our podcast which we’re planning on unveiling in the next few months.  Until then, we’re continuing to go into our podcast archives and resharing episodes on topics we thought warrant a repeat performance.  

So with that in mind, this month we are resharing our podcast interview with Linzy Bonham on the important topic of finances.  We hope you’ll join us in revisiting this important and highly relevant topic to self-care.  As we often say, self-care isn’t one and done and the reality is we often need reminders to keep us on track. 
 
Whether you are in private practice or in a salaried position, this episode has great information that will help you reflect on your own finances and provide some potential steps you can take to start making this part of your self-care plan.  Because as Linzy points out finances are foundational to self-care!

Episode highlights:  

• What led Linzy to create her signature course, Money Skills for Therapists 
• How money skills fit into self-care 
• Factors that contribute to unique money related issues for female therapists 
• Steps you can take today to start feeling more on top of your finances 
• Linzy’s best “non-conventional” self-care practice 

Linzy Bonham is a therapist in private practice, a consultant who helps therapists feel calm and in control of their finances, and the creator of the Money Skills for Therapists course. As the daughter of an accountant, Linzy inherited a good dose of bookkeeping brain. She's like half therapist, half bookkeeper. So when she went into private practice, she dug right into all the ways to build a healthy business that pays for her life and always has extra money in the bank. 

Now Linzy helps therapists develop peace of mind about their money. Since so many of us were never taught about money, she focuses on the 'how' of making the financial side of private practice doable, and even super satisfying - feeling competent and calm about your money is pretty swell!
