Individuals, community groups, libraries, co-working spaces and sometimes employers or local organizations that hire you to run a session.

Per-person fees for a multi-week program or workshop ticket, plus flat fees when an organization books you for a session.

• Leading a group and keeping discussion on track
• Planning a clear program structure
• Promoting events and filling seats

• Check your city or county for business license rules and any permits for hosting events
• Check whether venues require proof of liability insurance
• Group programs can fall through if too few people sign up, so set a minimum before you commit to costs
• Keep client information confidential and avoid giving therapy-style advice

Monthly revenue is typically around $300 to $3,500, depending on group size, how often you run sessions and your pricing. Programs can fall through if too few people sign up, so plan for that.
