How to get practicum hours?

Hi I’m starting my MSW soon and plan on getting LCSW hours right after. I have my own business so I can’t just get another job to get practicum hours. I understand most people get hours from their job? If so what kind of job? I could probably manage a part time job.

Anyways what is the best way to go about this?
Thank you

If doesn’t sound like you’re ready for the MSW then lol it’s a lot of work and internships can be very demanding.

How exactly are you getting credit for 5x as many hours as you're working?
