What if you could add $7K/month without leaving your therapy practice? Peggy DeLong, a psychologist of 23 years, did just that—launching her coaching business and enrolling 5 women in 30 days. She found a way to protect her license while finally building the business she truly wanted.

Peggy shares how midlife worked in her favor, how she got over calling herself a coach, and the legal steps that made her feel safe. Even after losing her mom just days into the launch, she turned that grief into momentum. Her story is proof of what’s possible when you bet on yourself.
