Episode 125: When Life Hands You Lemons: Pivot and Adapt [featuring Danica Wolf]

In this episode, I’m joined by the resilient and insightful Danica Wolf, COO of Simplified SEO Consulting. We dive into the heart of entrepreneurship—confronting imposter syndrome, embracing our authentic struggles, and owning our unique journeys.

Danica opens up about her path from birth trauma to becoming a doula, and now to empowering therapists through effective SEO strategies.

We share our personal stories, discussing how unexpected challenges can rock our world but also lead to profound growth and leadership. Tune in to learn how to turn setbacks into comebacks and help your private practice thrive.

Key Takeaways:

  1. Ownership and Empowerment: Danica opens up about defeating imposter syndrome and stepping into her power.
  2. Facing Trauma with Resilience: Learn how Danica's transition from trauma to becoming a doula informs her current work as a COO of an SEO company for therapists, providing perspective on integrating personal experiences.
  3. Staying Agile in Business: Danica and I emphasize the need for continuous adaptation in leadership and entrepreneurship to navigate the ever-changing business landscape.

More about Danica:

Danica is a coffee lover, drawn to the ocean, and a not-so-secret strategy nerd. As COO of Simplified SEO Consulting, Danica gets to spend most of her time helping therapists and other mental health professionals build the business of their dreams with dream clients who are already searching for them. As a birth business owner, former trauma advocate, University instructor, and single mom, Danica knows how important it is for busy business owners to get the info they need quickly with action steps to implement right away. Life is too short and full to waste time with inauthentic action.
