Grow a successful business where you can work less, earn more, & change more lives.
The Business Hive is a group coaching program led by Laura Park Figueroa where you’ll learn a proven process guaranteed to help you grow a profitable business that runs on auto-pilot as much as possible.
The problem is:
most professionals don't know how to run a successful business.
It's not your fault. You're an expert at providing your services...and maybe never thought you'd be a business owner!
Running a business requires specific knowledge and skills that you likely didn't learn in school.
As a business owner, you have to learn to think very differently than you do as a therapist or service provider.
You MUST learn business essentials and strategy so that your business can continue to help people for many years to come!
Because the odds of any business surviving simply aren't good. 😢
A quick Google search reveals that 20.8% of businesses fail in the first YEAR!
And 40% of businesses fail within the first 3 years...
49.9% fail within the first 5 years...
65.8% fail within 10 years...
and a whopping 80% of businesses fail before 20 years. 😳
The stakes are high.
If you don't learn business essentials and strategy now, your business may not exist to help more people in the future.
Inside the Business Hive, you'll learn my signature framework & proven process for business success:
The 4 Business Bedrocks
-

Mindset
You'll learn specific strategies to have an entrepreneur's MINDSET in all aspects of your business. (It's different than thinking like a therapist or service provider!)
-

Operations
You'll create systems and Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for all your business OPERATIONS to automate workflow so your business runs effectively and efficiently...requiring LESS of your time as the business grows.
-

Marketing
You'll design strategic MARKETING to connect with your ideal clients to get more paying customers. You'll learn best practices for copywriting, branding, email marketing, website design, print materials, & social media marketing.
-

Finances
You'll set up rock-solid systems for budgeting business FINANCES so you can stop worrying about money in your business, pay yourself more, & KEEP MORE PROFIT so your business can grow!
Entrepreneurship is not for the faint of heart nor is it meant to be a solo adventure.
You need a community where you're free to be REAL & get clarity to take the RIGHT actions to grow your business.
Hi! I'm Dr. Laura Park Figueroa.
Growth-obsessed occupational therapist entrepreneur. Owner of a nature-based therapy practice with 7 profitable locations in 2 different states that grossed 970k in revenue last year. I can help you get there, too. I'm a business coach & strategist who always keeps it 100% real! I know a LOT from running this practice for the past 10 years and I share it all in my programs to help YOU.
I originally created my Business Bedrocks curriculum in 2020 to give therapist entrepreneurs a structured program & supportive community to establish strong business foundations for infinite future growth and income.
The results have been inspiring....
It’s gonna be worth your time and it’s really gonna help you make serious changes to your business!

Getting all these systems in place right at the beginning means I dont’ have to do all make-up work later.

NO- not for this last Hive cohort from July-Dec 2026. I’ve opened access to any service-based professional businesses. Given my connections, it will likely be mostly OTs, PTs, SLPs, and mental health counselors inside the Hive.

99.9% of what we do in the program is relevant no matter where you run your business. It’s not a “start your business” program so we don’t cover legal aspects, taxes, etc. The program is all about getting good systems in place for business efficiency and growth (and sanity as a business owner)! For the finances part- which is the only part where taxes would come up as a topic- Laura teaches her system to stay organized, which you can use in any country, despite any different tax laws.
-
We have PROVEN the effectiveness of this program with 100+ therapists who have given feedback and rave reviews about the transformation it brought about in their businesses.
If you do the work in the program, we know you will get results. It works. For this reason, we do NOT offer refunds.
We want people to seriously consider their enrollment and only enroll if they are ready.
Email Laura at support@therapyinthegreatoutdoors.com with any questions if you need help deciding if it is right for you.

Some of you may know I teach a nature-based therapy training called ConTiGO.
Many therapists start with ConTiGO, and then enroll in the Hive when they are ready to grow their business.You do NOT have to take ConTiGO to join the Hive. The Hive offers business coaching and resources for any service-based business owner.
The ConTiGO Approach™ is about nature-based therapy, not business.
ConTiGO is all about equipping you to do evidence-based therapy outdoors in nature based on research and best practices. ConTiGO covers the theoretical foundations for nature-based therapy, plus gives you an operationalized approach to nature-based therapy to help you plan and provide effective outdoor therapy sessions. The Modules include theoretical foundations, the key elements of the approach, the role and responsibilities of the therapist, and environmental assessment of nature areas for providing outdoor sessions. Skills videos include fort building, fire building, whittling, and outdoor swings. There are additional bonuses included in the course as well, but even though some logistical elements are shared in ConTiGO, the bulk of the course is about practice, NOT business. You can read more about the ConTiGO Approach™ here.
Learning to run an effective business or program takes additional work and skill beyond what is covered in ConTiGO.
-
Sure! The content in the Bedrocks program is 100% relevant to any service-based business owner.
