Overview

By the time you've finished reading this book, you'll understand the fundamentals of entrepreneurship in the field of mental health and be able to establish a solid, detailed plan to conquer your fears and attain your dream career. You will understand how powerful you are, especially because you are a mental health professional with insights and training that no other entrepreneur has. If you're ready to make the leap from a draining nine to five job into a life of freedom, Mental Health Entrepreneur will set you on the right path. The entrepreneurial path is one where we are free to choose our own schedule, free to work with our preferred clientele, and free to nurture our own happiness. This guide was created for entrepreneurs and small business owners. It seeks to empower thought leaders toward freedom from the grind and can serve as a supplemental tool to use alongside the assisted empowerment coaching and other business accelerator programs offered by Nakeya and her team. This book includes real life stories of CEOs and strategies for monetizing expertise in the field. 100% of this book's proceeds will benefit the charitable, 501 (C) 3 non profit charity, Therapeutic Play Foundation (www.therapeuticplayfoundation.org), whose mission is to build a healthier, more resilient world through empowerment, education and play. The Therapeutic Play Foundation in turn processes 100% of that amount towards costs of supplies and program development of after school and sports performance interventions.
