  If You're a Speech Therapist in Private Practice, You Need to Know About AAPPSPA with Leanne Shouten and Lauren Hughes

  Jul 31, 202623 minS1

  Running a private practice can feel like you're on your own even when you're surrounded by clients and staff all day. In this episode, I sit down with Leanne Shouten and Lauren Hughes, the president and vice president of AAPPSPA , an organization built specifically for private practice speech therapists and audiologists. Here's what we're getting into: What AAPPSPA is and how it's different from ASHA, built around one thing: private practice owners helping each other How the community listserv actually works and why getting flooded with emails at first is worth pushing through What the $150 membership gets you, from attorney consultations to CEU courses to advocacy on issues like the 92507 changes Why the in-person conference, shared lunches included, has become the thing members say changed everything for them If you've ever felt like you're figuring out private practice alone, this conversation will show you there's already a whole community of people who have your back.

  Why Consistency Beats a Big Following with Rose Griffin

  Jul 21, 202626 min

  If you have ever wondered whether you need a bigger following or a flawless plan to build something meaningful, this episode will change how you think about that. I'm talking with Rosemarie Griffin, known to most as Rose, an ASHA certified speech therapist and board certified behavior analyst with over 20 years of experience in both public and private settings. Rose is the founder of ABA Speech, which offers therapy services, courses, consultations, and a membership called the ABA Speech Connection, all built around helping autistic students find their voice. She also hosts her own show, the ABA Speech Podcast, and just released her new book, Say It With Me: Naturalistic Tools to Spark Speech and Social Engagement. What stood out most in this conversation is how much Rose credits her growth to consistency, not size. She posts fourteen times a week and has sent a weekly email to her list of close to 50,000 subscribers since the very beginning, long before either one felt like it was paying off. She also talks candidly about the boundaries she has had to protect along the way, including stepping back from a school job that gave her more balance, even when her own business mentors told her it would slow her growth. And she shares the shift from working one on one with clients to reaching people on a much bigger scale through her podcast, courses, and membership, a mindset she describes simply as going from one to many. Here's what we're getting into: Why Rose believes an engaged email list will always outperform a big social media following, and how she built hers to close to 50,000 subscribers through weekly consistency The boundary she chose to protect even when it meant slower business growth, and why she doesn't regret it How she made the shift from treating clients one on one to reaching far more people through her podcast, courses, and membership What it actually took to write her new book, Say It With Me, one day a week for almost a year, while running a full business If you have been chasing growth through more followers or more hustle, this conversation is a reminder that steady, consistent effort in the right places will always win.

That is exactly the problem Alisa Kay and I dig into in part two of our conversation. In part two of my conversation with Alisa, we dive into her exact process for training AI to create content that actually sounds like you, not the average of everything already on the internet. Here is some of what we get into: Why whatever you're selling has to be the treasure all of your marketing is pointing toward Why you have to (train AI to 😉) write about the problem your client thinks they have, not the one you know the actual solution to How to build a story bank from your voice so AI can write content that sounds like your experience instead of a stranger's Why blogging is one of the best starting points for service-based businesses, and why you should write those first posts yourself before handing anything to AI The five-step process Alisa uses to set up her clients' project, from identifying the problem to repurposing content across every platform Press play on part two, because this is where the real time savings start to show up. You can learn more from Alisa at alisa-kay.com/claudesuccesscode or follow along with her on Instagram at @growwithalisa .

  Jul 6, 202633 min

  Did you know it's more than a chatbot or mediocre content creator? If I'm being honest, I didn't really understand the true capabilities of AI within my business until I sat down with Alisa Kay for this week's episode of the ScaleSmart Podcast. Alisa Kay is a storytelling and AI strategist who has built multiple six-figure businesses using her marketing genius, and now she teaches business owners how to do the same… but with AI. In this conversation, she breaks down exactly what the different AI platforms are, what they're used for, and how to use them for your private therapy practice or service-based business. Plus we're getting into: How to know when to use Claude, ChatGPT, or Gemini for your business or speech therapy private practice Why AI-generated content must be trained on your voice to actually sound like you, whether you're using it for social media, emails, blogging, or more The truth about AI and privacy, and how to navigate that when you use AI in a client-facing business Why Alisa compares training AI to onboarding a new team member, and what that actually looks like in practice Press play on this one, because it might change how much time AI actually saves you. You can learn more from Alisa at alisa-kay.com/claudesuccesscode or follow along with her on Instagram at @growwithalisa .

  What's Actually Working in Private Practice Hiring with Meredith Harold

  Jun 30, 202639 minS1

  Hiring is one of the hardest parts of growing a private practice, and most of the advice floating around in Facebook threads isn't cutting it. If you've posted a job and gotten crickets, or gotten someone in the door and lost them to a bigger practice, this episode is going to give you a much clearer picture of why. I'm sitting down with Meredith Harold , founder of The Informed SLP and Informed Jobs, to talk honestly about what's happening in the SLP job market right now. Meredith brings real data to this conversation, and some of what she shares is going to surprise you. Here's what we're getting into: Why most SLP pay data online is wrong, and how large agencies are making their offers look more competitive than they actually are What Meredith's research actually shows drives candidates to apply and say yes (it probably isn't what you'd guess) How to have better conversations with candidates before they make a decision without you in the room What your website and your reputation are already communicating to job seekers before you ever get them on a call Why hiring always costs you something, whether that's money or labor, and how to think through which one makes sense for where you are right now If you're hiring or building toward it, Meredith's platform is worth knowing about. Informed Jobs was built so small private practices can actually compete with large agencies on a fair playing field. Find it at theinformedslp.com . If hiring feels like one of the biggest walls you keep running into, this conversation is going to help.
