In this session, Camille Freeman will help you explore whether discovery calls are a good fit for your practice. If you choose to offer them, you’ll learn how to design a simple, grounded process that supports both you and your potential clients—without pressure or burnout. You’ll leave with practical tools to create calls that feel clear, aligned, and truly helpful for everyone involved.

Health Plans for Self-Employed Practitioners: Demystifying Your Options

square blue and white solo health logo

Hosted by our Partners at Solo Health Collective

As an independent wellness practitioner, your personal health is closely tied to the health of your business. But your options for health coverage are few, expensive, and confusing. We recognize that searching for a health plan can be difficult - especially for solopreneurs who typically lack traditional employer coverage and must navigate complex or more costly traditional options.

That’s why AB is teaming up with Solo Health Collective to help our members decode their health plan options and find coverage that fits their unique needs during this year’s open enrollment.

In this session you will:

- Understand the current landscape - what health plan options exist for independent workers today?

- Learn what’s driving more practitioners to explore new, tailored plan options like Solo.

- Learn how to compare health plans and select what’s right for your situation.

- Discuss whether you can cancel your current plan if you find something better.

We also host a live Q&A to answer your most pressing health insurance questions! A recording of the presentation will be shared with all registrants.

Get started today by getting your monthly cost and scheduling a 1:1 consultation with the Solo team.

About the Host
Solo Health Collective offers affordable medical plans, specifically designed for solopreneurs. It combines flexible benefits, access to a PPO network, concierge support, and potentially big savings compared to other options. Learn more about Solo here: https://info.hbgsolo.com
