August 4 Event: Annie Schuessler + 3 Things For Every Private Practice
Our next fundraising workshop is August 4th at 6pm PST with Annie Schuessler. Annie will be sharing 3 things she wishes every therapist in private practice was doing…cannot wait!
I first heard of Annie Schuessler, the Rebel Therapist on Selling the Couch. I signed up for her newsletter and listened to a lot of her podcast episodes (I love this one!). Annie doesn't push for "creating your dream lifestyle", leveling up quickly or anything else that seems to reinforce individualistic, hierarchical, capitalistic, white supremacy systems. Her messaging is community-minded, wise, authentic, and liberation-oriented.
After six months of getting to know her (entrusting someone with your business future is no small thing), I did Annie's 5 week Create Your Program, then her follow-up 8 month mastermind group. It was Annie who helped me realize the monthly fundraising workshops were not just an on-the-side gig, but a real part of the Lloyd Collective foundation and mission. Honestly, the best of the best in the mental health world go to Annie to develop their micro-businesses.
Annie is donating her time and expertise (I think her hourly consultation fee is $400+!) and has chosen to raise funds for Meadows Livingstone School, which specializes in educating African-American children to reach their full academic, social, emotional and creative potential. Your attention to Meadows Livingstone School is a good donation. No pressure to donate funds unless the spirit moves you. :)
I really hope this will be valuable for each and every one of you.
