In Episode 10 of the Guitars & Granola Bars podcast, I’m chatting with music therapist Amy Schaack. Amy talks about building her private practice and hiring employees, sustaining her business through two maternity leaves, and how her company is soon taking music therapy “on the road”.
Meet Amy
Amy owns Life In Harmony Music Therapy, LLC, a growing private practice in Southwestern Wisconsin. She spent the first four years as a professional developing a music therapy program at a local hospital which later transitioned into a private practice. The business has survived two maternity leaves nearly a year apart and has continued to grow through the process (now employing three music therapists!).
Amy’s family includes her husband, Bradley, who works full time and also serves as the practice’s administrative assistant, Selah (turned two at the end of November), Jovin (will be one the beginning of April), and Chloe (her very first child… a Boston Terrier).
