EP34 | Why We're Falling in Love With Virtual Visits Lactation Business Coaching with Annie and Leah

Today’s episode of Lactation Business Coaching with Annie and Leah is called “Why We’re Falling in Love with Virtual Visits.” They talk about some ideas for moving forward with your private practice, continuing to help families, even if you’re doing something you’ve never done before, if this is your first time doing virtual visits.

Annie and Leah also talk about how these virtual visits don’t have to be the reaction to what’s going on and something we’re forced into doing. We can take this opportunity to start to seek out our strong points and see the benefits that virtual visits keep families and ourselves safe during this time.

HIGHLIGHTS

  • Changing from reacting to an opportunity
  • Spreading our reach virtually
  • Better utilizing visits and schedules
  • Developing more offerings
  • Clients owning their abilities

QUOTES

  • “And then I left that day really inspired and I was like, oh wow, okay. I know there’s still going to be a lot of rough patches, but I was, okay, this is a viable option.”
  • “If we just changed our perspective of ourselves, it helps you the way you’re going to come to your client, but it also helps how you’re going to come to those that you want to promote your services to as well.”
  • “And the other thing though too that I realized very quickly it was that I was able to see more people because I’m making my visits shorter and they’re happening more frequently.”
  • “I think it’s enhanced my skills, you know, like I’ll take these, these learning moments with me forward, these things that I’ve figured out and that’s really exciting to me.”
  • “It feels a little different to me. Like how much ownership they’re taking in the good outcomes they’re seeing versus before I think they would lean on us and let that be kind of owned by us.”
