We covered negative client reviews a few weeks ago, but today I’m talking about a negative podcast review. A few months ago, I received a review from a listener who was disappointed that I had ‘sold out’ because I started running sponsorship ads on the podcast. Now, I get it—change can be hard, and if you’ve been listening since the early days when there weren’t ads, this might feel different. But here’s the thing: sponsorships are what allow me to continue producing this show at a high level.  And today, we’re going to break down exactly why sponsorships exist, the psychology of customer reviews—especially the star rating system—and how we can reframe negative feedback as a sign of engagement and care from the audience.

If you’ve ever found yourself drowning in scheduling, billing, or intake calls, or if your waitlist is stretching out for weeks and you’re feeling completely maxed out, you’re not alone. In this episode, we’ll talk about both the qualitative and quantitative signs that it’s time to hire: how it feels emotionally when you’re taking on too much, and the key financial and operational metrics that tell you it’s time to bring in help. I’ll break down the numbers, the workflow challenges, and the real opportunity costs of waiting too long. Plus, I’ll share strategies to overcome the fears and hesitations that so many of us experience when making that first hire.

This conversation explores the intersection of the two, focusing on the evolution of psychoanalytic thought, the significance of assessment tools like the Rorschach, and the complexities of testing that may go unnoticed in a typical evaluation. We also talk about  the importance of context in assessments, the ethical considerations involved, and the impact of self-diagnosis on identity. Dr. Morsa and I also delve into the challenges of modern diagnosis and the need for a more nuanced understanding of mental health.  Ben is a dynamic, incredibly bright individual – I think you’ll find this conversation thought-provoking and ultimately helpful for your work!
