What happens when someone without a therapy license decides to build a premium-fee practice anyway?

Meet Jessica Scalzo, a professional Peer Counselor and retired competitive runner who turned her lived experience with overtraining and eating disorders into a thriving private practice charging $185 per session.

Jessica was charging $45 when she joined LIMB. Today, she's a pioneer — redefining what's possible for peer counselors, athletes, and anyone told their work "doesn't count."

In this episode, Jessica shares:

  • How she built a private practice as one of only two known peer counselors in the U.S.

  • The bold leap from $45 to $185 — and what it taught her about worth

  • How she helps athletes heal from "R.E.D.S." (Relative Energy Deficiency Syndrome)

  • The difference between therapy and peer counseling — and why both matter

  • What it means to turn pain into purpose and still make bank
