Overview
My guest today is Robbin Rockett, a psychologist in CA who focuses her practice on working primarily with single moms. Our topic is building a private practice around your calling and passion. A greater “WHY” makes your practice more sustainable and gives a different perspective than if you just “have a job.” I’ve tried to make this my personal approach, and I’m excited to chat with Robbin about her experiences. Join us now!
