"Busy means there are a lot of people in need. Slow isn't bad... it allows us to go deeper with clients who are present."

2023 has officially become our second business year so far on record. But September has been relatively calm.

2023 became the second business year for serving people in our age group, according to stats that measure number of clients served through September each year since we started. 2015 remains the record year and is likely to go unchallenged for a while.
The summer was very busy in terms of unique clients, well above average for every month. However, September has "cooled down" a bit. So far we're running below average for September although almost the same as last September.
The first week of September was above average in terms of busy but each of the next weeks have been slower. Busy means there are a lot of people in need. Slow isn't bad... it allows us to go deeper with clients who are present.
Every Friday in September has been busy and well above average in terms of unique client attendance. Something fun happens most Fridays and it's a day you can just hang out all day. We use the time to build rapport. We'd love to offer more "hang out" time but those who want to heal faster, grow faster, and go deeper need opportunities for groups.
