Today, I’m excited to introduce you to one of my incredible clients, Rebecca Rowe. She’s the CEO of Act Therapy Services, who has gone from running a solo practice to overseeing three thriving locations and a team of 22 in North Carolina, without sacrificing her own well-being in the process.

In our conversation, Rebecca pulls back the curtain on what it really takes to scale a service-based business while staying true to your values. She shares candid stories about her transition from burnout in the corporate hospital world to creating a team culture where personal boundaries, professional growth, and genuine support come first. We dive into her practical strategies for hiring, setting clear processes, holding her team accountable, and structuring her days for maximum impact with tools she’s not only learned inside the Leadership Lab, but also brought to life in her business.

If you’re a woman business owner dreaming of expanding your impact, but you want to do it with intention and clarity and avoid falling into the burnout trap, this episode is for you.
