I’m so excited, and I just can’t hide it!

A year and a half after coming up with the idea to create a Music Therapy Business 101 E-Course, it is FINALLY ready to launch.

I initially came up with the core content for a presentation I gave to University of Miami graduate students last year.

After putting in all that work, and since I already had the tech side of things set up from previous E-Courses, I decided to put it all together in a continuing education opportunity for you (I’m talking 8 – 20 CMTEs, depending on the package you choose!!)

Today’s post is going to focus on why it is amazing to be a music therapy business owner. 

You’ll learn a bit more about my story of how I came to be a business owner in the course, but briefly it goes like this – I was working as a music therapist at a traditional “9 to 5” job at a school for children with disabilities. I love, love, LOVED it.

I eventually started taking on private clients on the side – seeing them in the evenings and on weekends. Needless to say, my schedule was full. This was all fine and dandy, until I had my first baby. It was at that point that I had enough contracts that I could go full time with my business.

And that was the best decision I ever made.

I wrote a bit about why I am in love with my business in this old blog post here.

It highlighted many of the reasons why I’ve been so thankful to have my own business – I was able to have both my babies home with me while I worked on the “business side” of things and didn’t have to put them in daycare.

It allowed me flexibility to work doing the job I love (taking on contracts at a higher rate than I was making as an employee), while also spending a significant amount of time with my babies at home.

Now that my two kiddos are school age, I have the flexibility to be home with them on snow days and sick days.

I can chaperone field trips and lead holiday-themed musical activities with their classes.

And, I can work while we’re at the beach (major life goal achieved here!)

Flexibility and location independence, while doing work that I love, are key reasons why I strongly feel it is amazing to be a music therapy business owner.

I highlight even more reasons in the course, sharing both the pros and honest cons (spoiler alert: there are more pros, in my opinion!)
