Being the “Alternative” Therapist with Safrianna
Safrianna was trying to figure out how to sustain herself and be successful in her profession. She thought that she was going to work in agencies forever after graduate school, but then she began suffering from physical pain as her workload increased. Being diagnosed with fibromyalgia, she requested a raise to cover her medical bills and was denied. Safrianna transferred into contract work where she’d begun to pay to see clients she felt weren’t a good fit, and she noticed a similar cycle of issues occur in her new workplace.
Once she realized she couldn't keep up with the work, Safrianna stumbled upon zynnyme and had a major mindset shift. Now, she’s cleared her school and medical debt, bought a house, and continues to work on her passions and unique niches.
Safrianna talks with Miranda about her condition, the ripple effect of their work, being attuned to your body, and knowing your worth.
