In this episode of The Wealthy Practitioner Podcast, Steph chats with fellow Jersey-girl and beloved client, Sarah Burby—owner of Mind Body Behavior and a Board Certified Behavior Analyst. Sarah shares how she left a steady career in special education in search of something more aligned, fulfilling, and free. She began her business journey feeling scared and uncertain, but deeply committed to building something of her own. After struggling to gain traction and make consistent income, everything shifted—and her story is one of incredible transformation and resilience.

Sarah opens up about the moment she decided to bet on herself, using the last of her money to book a coaching call with Steph, without a clear plan but a strong belief in what was possible. That leap of faith, combined with powerful mentorship, became the foundation for a thriving business that’s now on track to generate a million dollars in 2025.

Together, they dive into what it really takes to scale, the mindset required to grow, the systems that support it, and the magic of being surrounded by a high-level community inside Expanders.
