Interested in starting your own entrepreneurial journey in health and wellness but unsure what to expect? Then read up on our interview with Linnea Willi, CEO of LP Counseling & Therapy Services, located in Cleveland, OH, USA.

What's your business, and who are your customers?

If you want to experience a fulfilling life where you are in control of your decisions, seek teletherapy and mental health assessments. My business serves those who may experience anxiety, relationship issues, life adjustments, and support for trauma recovery.

Tell us about yourself

Being in and out of an unfulfilling relationship made me interested in how to understand my emotions better and express them in a meaningful way. Now, I am in a healthy marriage where we happily work towards our family goals and support one another's individual goals. My motivation drives me to help others seek peace where frustration or feeling overwhelmed exists. We work together to identify the issues, create a goal plan to resolve and treat your concerns and provide tools to maintain the progress. When my clients experience 'aha moments,' it is very rewarding. Healthy relationships of all kinds are at the foundation of the human experience. Choose Wellness!

What's your biggest accomplishment as a business owner?

My biggest accomplishment as a business owner is truly balancing work and personal life so that I feel like I serve both parts of my life consistently and effectively. As a business owner, I get to make scheduled decisions that help me attain my yearly goals while also having time for my family and personal and professional growth.

What's one of the hardest things that come with being a business owner?

One of the hardest things that come with being a business owner is managing the billing and taxes portion of my business. It is a part of the business that I can always hire a contractor to complete, but making those decisions is challenging. While I enjoy my work, I still have to run my business efficiently.

What are the top tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today?

The top 3 tips you'd give to anyone looking to start, run and grow a business today:

  1. Having a purpose and knowing your audience.
  2. Obtaining or building on the tools for the product or services you choose to run.
  3. Creating SMART goals for your business and processing them with a mentor who runs a similar business or company.

Is there anything else you'd like to share?

When growing a business, you may make a mistake or two. I have made many, but mistakes help you better formulate a process that works best to suit your needs. Do not be afraid to receive help from people who know more about the types of products or services you provide. Decide what information you may keep and use for your business and what you do not need. Trust yourself and take one step at a time. You got this!
