351. When Clients Disappear: Understanding Ghosting and Growing from It
Have you ever had a client just disappear after a session โ no call, no message, nothing โ and wondered what you did wrong?
This week, we’re diving deep into something we all deal with at some point โ client ghosting. Yes, when youโve poured your heart into an appointment and your client just vanishes. Iโm chatting about why this happens, how it’s often not about us personally, and what we can do to learn and evolve as practitioners.
Iโll also share personal stories from my two decades in practice (like the time I thought a client had ghosted, but she was actually stranded interstate camping by her broken-down car!).
You canโt stop ghosting entirely, but you can manage it with grace, keep your boundaries strong, protect your business โ and come out a stronger practitioner.

350. Why Reflecting on Client Consults Could Save You From Burnout
Last time, we chatted about the empathy bucket and how quickly it empties when youโre not careful. Well this week, weโre building on that โ because if youโre waking up at 3am thinking, โI shouldโve asked about thatโฆโ or โWhat did I miss?โ, then this episode is exactly what you need.
Iโm getting into the real guts of the consult โ not the protocols, not the supplements โ but what happens after the client leaves and youโre left with that lingering feeling of unfinished business.
This is all about reflection. Honest, practical, non-perfectionist reflection.
If youโre ready to stop carrying consults home with you, book a free focus call with me at http://www.geraldineheadley.com and letโs sort it out together.

349. Empathy Burnout Is Real: How to Set Boundaries Without Losing Your Clients

This week, I’m calling it like it is โ
Empathy burnout is real,
And we’ve only got so much in the tank before we start running on empty.
Iโll share what Iโve learned the hard way (and what my mum used to say). Because when your empathy bucketโs dry, your patience, clarity, and connection go with it.

348. Top 3 Rules for Managing Complex Clients and Staying on Time in Clinic
That moment when youโre wrapping up a session and your client casually drops a new diagnosis or med they โforgotโ to mention โ and suddenly, your whole planโs out the window.
Iโve been there โ and in this episode, Iโm sharing the simple rules I follow to keep appointments on track, protect my energy, and still make clients feel heard and supported.
Weโll talk about why shorter sessions can actually work better for complex cases, how to get the most out of that first 15 minutes, and how active listening changes everything.
If youโre feeling stretched, scattered, or just plain exhausted, this oneโs got your name on it.

Ready to build a thriving natural health practice thatโs actually yours ?
In this episode, Iโm diving into how you can start growing your client base using the skills, experiences, and connections you already have.

Spoiler alert: it didnโt happen overnight, but it did happen โ and you can absolutely do it too.
So have a listen โ and letโs figure out how to build a practice that feels good, grows steadily, and reflects you.
