“Sometimes it's not just thinking about expansion, it's ‘What's the model that works for me,’” Director of The Therapy Hub, Marie Vakakis
Episode description
A portfolio business might not answer the annoyingly quick question of “what do you do?” but it could be the answer to your own personal and professional joy.
My guest today is Marie Vakakis, Director of the mental health services business The Therapy Hub, and she has a powerful perspective on what it takes to balance leveraging an opportunity, with holding site of the bigger picture and the unique why we have behind being in business for ourselves.
In this chat with Marie you’ll hear about:
- Developing a portfolio business
- Information overload and its effect on imposter syndrome
- Navigating new service offerings in a cost-of-living crisis
- Managing a personal brand business alongside a traditional business
- The impact of mental health care in business ownership
- And knowing when to stop scaling up.
You will walk away with a sense of business solidarity and renewed belief in how to move forward in your own business, stories of others keeping it real do that for us.
