We want to hear more about private practice? More or less rewarding? What's hard or easy or fun?
And you thought life-coach was a compliment?
"It's much less stigmatizing to think of myself as seeing a "life coach" as opposed to seeing a "psychiatrist," which might make people think there's something wrong with me."

And of course, with your spin on things, it's bound to be awesome.
