Youâre trying to be Wonder Woman, arenât you? Doing all the things. Running your practice, keeping the house together, trying to keep your head above water â and somewhere in there, squeezing in time for yourself.
This week, Iâm sharing whatâs been going on behind the scenes, and what itâs taught me about the hidden cost of doing everything yourself.
Weâre talking about why itâs time to stop trying to do it all on your own, how burnout creeps in without you even realising, and the freedom that comes when you get support and systems in place. Plus, Iâll give you a sneak peek at whatâs coming in July â weâre diving into structure, templates, and a proper plan to get you sorted and feeling on top of things again.

Do you cringe when someone asks what you charge?
Still thinking you need to âearnâ the right to raise your prices?
Letâs stop that right now.
In this episode, Iâm laying it all out: why I charge what I do, how I got confident doing it, and why you absolutely must do the sameâif you want a practice that thrives without burnout.
I know pricing can feel awkward, even emotional. But it doesnât have to be. Iâll show you how I stopped undercharging, ditched the guilt, and built a business that supports me as much as I support my clients.

Have you ever had a client just disappear after a session â no call, no message, nothing â and wondered what you did wrong?
This week, we're diving deep into something we all deal with at some point â client ghosting. Yes, when youâve poured your heart into an appointment and your client just vanishes. Iâm chatting about why this happens, how it's often not about us personally, and what we can do to learn and evolve as practitioners.
Iâll also share personal stories from my two decades in practice (like the time I thought a client had ghosted, but she was actually stranded interstate camping by her broken-down car!).
You canât stop ghosting entirely, but you can manage it with grace, keep your boundaries strong, protect your business â and come out a stronger practitioner.

Last time, we chatted about the empathy bucket and how quickly it empties when youâre not careful. Well this week, weâre building on that â because if youâre waking up at 3am thinking, âI shouldâve asked about thatâŠâ or âWhat did I miss?â, then this episode is exactly what you need.
Iâm getting into the real guts of the consult â not the protocols, not the supplements â but what happens after the client leaves and youâre left with that lingering feeling of unfinished business.
This is all about reflection. Honest, practical, non-perfectionist reflection.
If youâre ready to stop carrying consults home with you, book a free focus call with me at www.geraldineheadley.com and letâs sort it out together.

How often do you sit with a client and find yourself biting your tongue, fighting the urge to chime in, correct, explain, or fix? Yeah, I see you. Thatâs judgment creeping in, and itâs costing you more than you think.
This week, I'm calling it like it is â
Empathy burnout is real,
And we've only got so much in the tank before we start running on empty.
Iâll share what Iâve learned the hard way (and what my mum used to say). Because when your empathy bucketâs dry, your patience, clarity, and connection go with it.
Need help putting boundaries in place, managing burnout, or just figuring out how to make it all work?

That moment when youâre wrapping up a session and your client casually drops a new diagnosis or med they âforgotâ to mention â and suddenly, your whole planâs out the window.
Iâve been there â and in this episode, Iâm sharing the simple rules I follow to keep appointments on track, protect my energy, and still make clients feel heard and supported.
Weâll talk about why shorter sessions can actually work better for complex cases, how to get the most out of that first 15 minutes, and how active listening changes everything.
If youâre feeling stretched, scattered, or just plain exhausted, this oneâs got your name on it.

Ready to build a thriving natural health practice thatâs actually yours ?
In this episode, Iâm diving into how you can start growing your client base using the skills, experiences, and connections you already have.
Iâll walk you through exactly what I did when I was starting out â the markets I went to (even when I didnât make a dollar), the offers I put out, and how I built trust and connection that led to long-term clients.
Spoiler alert: it didnât happen overnight, but it did happen â and you can absolutely do it too.
So have a listen â and letâs figure out how to build a practice that feels good, grows steadily, and reflects you.
It doesnât have to be perfect.
It just has to be real.
And it just has to be yours.
