166: Dealing with Chronic Illness While Maintaining Private Practice
How can a clinician deal with chronic illness? Is it possible to continue running your business and furthering your career?

We all know that life and your business don’t stop when illness strikes, so let’s jump into this discussion.
Daniela Paolone, MS, LMFT, is a counselor in Westlake Village, CA. She’s here to discuss her journey with chronic illness while maintaining her private practice and to teach us what she’s learned. There are some good pearls of wisdom in our conversation around having self-compassion and not falling prey to comparisons.
