During this episode, I talk with Jill Johnson-Young, otherwise known as "The Rebellious Widow." Jill is a grief therapist and expert, group practice owner, author, speaker, and so much more. We discuss Jill's incredible grief journey where she talks about the grief and loss of two of her wives and marrying her third wife... the kicker is that they all knew each other in one way or another. Talking Points Include: Why therapists don't feel comfortable talking about grief and loss Questions that you definitely should not ask someone grieving Jill's incredible outlook on some very difficult topics How to support clients and loved ones who are grieving Why it's important to get comfortable with the uncomfortable Destigmatizing grief and loss Check out Jill's website for grief and loss resources, classes*, and community. *Jill has a special offer for everyone listening to this podcast for 50% one of her courses using code: POD50 Learn more about Jill and her incredible work: https://jilljohnsonyoung.com ------------------------------------------------------- 🎙️ Listen to more episodes of the All Things Private Practice Podcast here: www.allthingspractice.com/all-things-private-practice-podcast 🎙️Spotify: atppod.com/spotify 🎙️Apple Podcasts: atppod.com/apple 🎙️Google Podcasts: atppod.com/google 🗨️ Join the All Things Private Practice FB Community:  www.facebook.com/groups/privatepracticebuilding ---------------------------- Mentioned in this episode: A Thanks to Our Sponsor, The Receptionist for iPad! I would also like to thank The Receptionist for iPad for sponsoring this episode. As you prepare for the new year as a private practice owner, one area of your business where you might be able to level up your client experience is from the moment that they enter your office and check in with you. For many private practices, the client check-in process can be a bit awkward and confusing. Clients often enter into an empty waiting room. And chances are you're wrapping up a session with someone else, so there's no way of knowing when they arrive. With a visitor management system like The Receptionist for iPad, you can provide clients with a discreet and secure way to check in for their appointment while instantly being notified of their arrival. What's more, The Receptionist offers an iPad list check-in option where clients can scan a QR code to check in, which negates the need for you to buy an iPad and stand.
