In this episode, I'm joined by counsellor Julie Wales who has become known for her work with neurodiverse couples. You don’t need to have everything figured out from the beginning and Julie’s story is a reminder that your niche can develop over time, often by following what you care about and noticing the people who are already coming to you for help.

We talk about the role of blogging, networking and community and how small, consistent steps can help you grow a practice that feels aligned with who you are - even if you are terrified when you first start.

This is a really encouraging episode if you’ve ever wondered how to:

• find your niche
• grow your confidence over time
• attract clients without feeling salesy
• or become more visible in a way that feels natural

Takeaways:

• How blogging can help clients find you
• The impact of updating your website and speaking clearly to your niche
• Building a private practice through networking and relationships
• The value of community and support when building a practice
• Why you don't have to feel like an expert to become recognised for your niche
