Do you want to start a private practice but feel overwhelmed by the logistics or your lack of business knowledge? If so, this episode is for you!
Joining me in this episode is Francesca Hernandez, a speech-language pathologist and the proud owner of Chihuahuan Desert Speech Therapy in El Paso, Texas. After filling her schedule with four PRN jobs right out of graduate school, Francesca realized that starting her own practice would give her greater control over her career.
Francesca joined the Start Your Private Practice Program in 2022, but waited over a year before actually diving into it. She had the same frustrations with her job that so many SLPs experience, and has not looked back since going through the Start Program!
In this episode, Francesca shares how her clinical skills and experience gave her the confidence to slowly build her own business and go into private practice full-time.
Francesca was born and raised in El Paso, TX. She attended the University of Texas at El Paso to pursue her undergraduate studies with the financial support of a full-ride scholarship from the Terry Foundation. Her personal life experiences led her to develop a strong passion for treating individuals with neurological disorders. She has always valued giving back to the El Paso community, which ultimately motivated her to start her private practice.
In Today's Episode, We Discuss:
Francesca is like so many SLPs who want to leave their jobs, but don’t know if they have what it takes to go into private practice. I hope her story helps you realize you already have what it takes, and the flexibility and job autonomy you want are just a leap of faith away!
