Hiring your first team member can feel exciting - and terrifying - at the same time.
Most therapists I speak to are asking the same questions:
Am I ready? Can I afford this? What if I get it wrong? What if this makes things harder, not easier?
In this episode, Mia walks you through the three checks she always comes back to before hiring whether it’s your first role or your next one.
These are the foundations that stop hiring becoming rushed, stressful, or reactive.
Inside this episode, you’ll learn:
- Why knowing your real numbers matters before you hire
- What to look at beyond just billable hours
- How to think clearly about the role you actually need
- Why position descriptions matter more than most people realise
- How to tell if a role will pay for itself
- What happens when systems aren’t in place
- How good onboarding protects both you and your team
If you’ve been thinking about bringing someone into your practice but feeling unsure, overwhelmed, or hesitant this episode will help you slow it down and make a clear, informed decision.
