Episode 134: How Jackie Lightner Scaled LightWork Therapy into a Mission-Driven Mental Health Brand
Today’s conversation is with Jackie Lightner, therapist, founder, and CEO of LightWork Therapy & Recovery — a women-centered mental health organization redefining leadership in behavioral health. Jackie breaks down how she grew from a one-woman private practice into multiple IOP/PHP locations, the mindset shifts required to lead a team of helpers, and how she uses emotionally intelligent leadership to balance empathy with accountability. We explore scaling, culture-building, operational risk, mission alignment, and the realities of growing a mental health brand that prioritizes both people and performance. This episode is a must-listen for anyone building a heart-led, high-impact business.
