Most practice owners plan the beginning. Almost none plan the end.

Gordon Brewer has run a private practice for 20+ years. He founded Kingsport Counseling Associates in Tennessee and has hosted The Practice of Therapy podcast since 2017. He also kept his practice running while caring for his late wife through 13 years of cancer.

Daniel and Gordon talk about what it takes to build a practice you can one day step away from, on your terms.

In this episode:
→ Why clinicians get "squirrely" about money, and how that holds a practice back
→ How to pick the right size of group practice for the life you actually want
→ Retirement planning, professional wills, and what happens to your practice if you can't show up tomorrow

Thinking about selling your practice one day, or bringing in a partner to grow it?
