The Call To More: soul-led business for healers

In this opening episode of our sub-series, My Aligned Practice, host Dr. Stephanie Dinsmore (psychotherapist, social worker, and founder of Mindful Path Counselling) invites therapists and healers into a new way of thinking about business growth. Rather than relying solely on strategy and external expectations, Stephanie introduces the foundations of soulful-led business coaching, a model rooted in intuition, embodiment, and alignment. Stephanie explores what she calls "a call to more": the inner signals, bodily cues, and intuitive nudges that often arise when a therapist begins to consider private practice, expanding to a group practice, or pursuing greater autonomy in their work. Through personal stories and real examples from her own growth - from solo practitioner to leading a team of 25+ clinicians - Stephanie highlights how tuning into the body can lead to more energized, authentic, and sustainable business decisions. Listeners will learn the early signs that a shift may be needed, how intuitive guidance often gets overridden, and why grounding, centering, and journaling become essential tools when navigating mindset blocks. Stephanie shares practical first steps—including the surprising power of bringing on a student intern—as well as a candid look at her own fears, imposter syndrome, and the practices that helped her transform them. This episode closes with your first Aligned Action Item, a set of journal prompts to begin unblocking mindset barriers and clarifying the practice you truly want to build.
