This is a 'Discussion Episode' of the #TherapistsConnect Podcast. We asked a panel of therapists and mental health practitioners to take over the podcast and discuss a particular topic. In this panel, the guests discuss what it is like to run a mental health business whilst also working in other roles in the world of mental health. This discussion was so interesting we have broken it down into two episodes - we will release a special 'bonus' episode in 2023. The host of this podcast is a previous guest - Kim Evans (see the August 2022 episode to hear more about Kim!). Kim is a Person-Centred Psychotherapist, Research Supervisor and Coach. Her company Kaemotherapy training and consultancy helps therapists to explore race in their therapeutic work and better support a racially diverse range of clients. Ngozi Cadmus is our second-panel member. Ngozi is a Mental Health and Leadership Expert, and Business Strategist.   Vaness Boachie is our third panellist and is the Founder of Inside Out Wellbeing. A not-for-profit social enterprise committed to helping people improve their mental health and well-being.All the panellists were open to being contacted via any of the usual ways (see their social media links below).   Kim EvansFacebook and Instagram - @kaemotherapyOr email admin@kaemotherapy.com to find out more!
