Earnings vs Profit

Earnings is the total money coming in. Profit is what's left after every cost — stock, rent, insurance, your time off.

Two therapists can charge the same and earn the same, yet one ends the year with thousands more in their pocket. The difference is knowing the maths before you set the price.
