Meet The Founder
Nancy Mura
Founder and Chief Creative Officer, Let’s Talk Private Practice
For a person who loves to talk, it seems only right that Nancy Mura chose to study communications, which she did at Elizabeth Seton College and the New York Institute of Technology. She then kicked off her career at the internationally renowned ad agency Ogilvy & Mather.
Not one for the corporate world, Nancy instead opted to take the road less traveled and became an entrepreneur. She then spent 17 years as a stand-up comic and award-winning actress. A rulebreaker and a maverick at heart, Nancy disagreed with Hollywood dictating when she could and could not be creative and, with no regrets, said goodbye to the entertainment industry.
Nancy then pivoted and built the Slice of Life Soap Co. from the ground up. She set up her factory in an economic development zone and partnered with the nonprofit Women in Transition (WIT) to help women get off welfare. In 2004, she sold the company and closed her “soap mogul” chapter.
When the Great Recession hit (2007–2009), Nancy jumped into real estate—and thrived in a market that made plenty of people run the other way. Later, she entered the physical therapy world as a marketing manager for a struggling practice and helped increase referrals fivefold—experience that would shape her work years down the line.
Today, Nancy is the founder and CCO of both Peds-A-Palooza™ Community and Conferences and Let’s Talk Private Practice coaching, training and implementation firm, which she built around her promise: “stability, expansion, and the preservation of private practice.”
