    • Write and post your blog article in the next 2 weeks. If you miss the deadline or you read this article months later, that’s OK too.
    • Post a link for this blog challenge in the comment section of this blog post.
    • Read, comment, and share other therapist’s articles.
    • Tweet your post using hashtag #therapistblog and tag @julie_hanks so I can retweet it.
    • Pin it on the challenge Pinterest Board. I’ve invited everyone who posted a comment on the initial blog challenge post as collaborators so you can pin onto the group board.
    • Spread the word and invite mental health colleagues to join the challenge. Articles can be added anytime throughout the year.
    • Write no more than 600 words, make it easy to read, use a conversational tone, and gear your articles toward your ideal client (not other professionals).
    • The goal of a professional blog is to provide value to your website visitors, help them get to know your professional perspective, increase traffic to your private practice website, and build your practice.
