If you’ve ever felt a quiet tension between wanting your practice to support you and feeling like you shouldn’t need that… you’re not alone. This is something I see all the time with therapists—where caring deeply about clients starts to blur into overlooking your own needs. In my conversation with Tiffany McLain, we’re looking at how that pattern shows up around money, and why it can feel so uncomfortable to want more, charge more, or build a practice that actually sustains you.

If money in your private practice brings up anxiety, avoidance, or that feeling of “I should have this figured out by now,” you’re not alone. Most of us were never taught how to manage money, and yet we’re running businesses that are supposed to take care of us while we take care of others. That’s a lot of pressure, and it makes sense that money can feel overwhelming.

Money can sometimes feel easier to manage in your business than in your relationship. In this episode, I sit down with Ed Coambs to gently explore what happens when you bring your money skills home and begin navigating them alongside a partner. We talk about financial intimacy, emotional safety, and what it truly takes to have honest, grounded conversations when two nervous systems — and two lifelong money stories — are in the room.
