Episode 186: Strategies for Therapists to Thrive Without Burnout
In this episode of Therapy for Your Money, Julie chats with Doug Vestal, a former Wall Street exec turned financial coach for therapists and OTs. They delve into the real financial challenges therapists face—such as high student loan debt and low starting salaries—and how these can lead to burnout if not addressed carefully. Doug shares the surprisingly simple wealth-building strategy that works (even if you're not a budget person), why your money mindset matters more than you think, and how early financial habits can set you up for long-term success. Doug also opens up about how a childhood memory shaped his entire financial philosophy. Whether you're solo or in a group practice, you’ll walk away with practical ideas and a fresh perspective on money.
Doug’s book Financial Freedom for OTs: A Guide to Building Wealth Without Burnout is available on Amazon and Barnes & Noble. Learn more about his work and his course, Private Pay MBA, at freedomofpractice.com.
