    Oct 15 2025

    Are you feeling burnt out from one-on-one sessions? If you’ve ever wondered how to shift into something more scalable and freeing, this episode is for you.

Whether you're curious about adding a new income stream or completely shifting how you work, Carolyn’s insights are a goldmine.

    In This Episode, We Explore…

    • What inspired Carolyn to leave her six-figure private practice and live on a boat.
