Starting a private practice isn't what it used to be. Today's clinicians are starting private practices much quicker, easier, and cheaper than before. And they aren't guessing their way through it or getting stuck in analysis paralysis. They're following a tried and true roadmap in order to save time, money, and frustration. There is no reason to reinvent the wheel or struggle to figure out how to start a private practice on your own. We've helped thousands of SLPs and OTs through this process, and now we wanna help you too. For a limited time, I'm offering a free copy of our Private Practice Roadmap, specifically for SLPs and OTs who are curious about private practice and want to see what the journey looks like.

And I'm on a mission to turn stuck SLPs into successful private practitioners. If you're tired of dealing with high productivity requirements, high caseload sizes, and low pay, it's time to take control of your professional, personal, and financial life, and finally get the freedom, flexibility, and financial abundance that you deserve by working with private clients in your own practice. Join me here each week as I share tips, best practices, and inspirational interviews on the Private Practice Success Stories podcast. If you're a private practitioner or one in the making, you're in the right place, so let's get started.

I am so excited to talk to you today and really hear about your private practice journey, what you're up to, and kind of how you've grown. But before we talk about the now, can we go back to your early career and tell us about how you got started in the profession?
Mallory Miette 3:08
When I graduated, I went into the nursing home. I always wanted to work with the elderly. It was my jam. I loved them. So I went and did that right out of college and quickly sort of moved up in that company and was not so in love with the politics of the nursing home realm. And so I kept doing PRN, but there was an opportunity at an outpatient pediatric clinic. And, you know, actually my sister was like, you've got to get out, just go do something else and figure out what you want to do. Right. She's like, I'm tired of

hearing you complain. Yes.

And I was like, oh, I don't know, pediatrics. I just I don't know if it's my thing. I just but I did it because I had to get out. Right. And so I stayed PRN in the nursing home for a really long time. I am still PRN listed as an option for some, but I don't do it as much now. And I went and worked at an outpatient pediatric clinic. My love in the nursing home was always swallowing. I loved working with patients who were end of life, PEG, and giving them some sort of quality of life, even if it was just, you know, ice chips, right? Because a lot of these patients, I mean, they get nothing. So I kind of took that love for swallowing and was like, oh, where's my feeding kids, you know? And that particular clinic didn't have that set up.
