Whether you’re an entrepreneur, investor, or someone chasing your next level, this podcast uncovers what it actually takes to turn momentum into long-term success.Greg Todd is the founder of Smart Success Healthcare and a former physical therapist who went from chasing stability to building multiple clinics, a high leverage education business, and a brand that has helped thousands of healthcare professionals escape the trap of trading time for money.

Greg shares why most people wait too long to take action, how fear gets disguised as logic, and why the pain of staying the same has to become bigger than the pain of changing. He also explains how content and partnerships drive growth, how his team uses VAs to scale, and why AI is about to compress years of work into months for business owners who move fast.If you feel stuck in one identity, burned out in your job, or unsure how to build income outside your core skillset, this episode will challenge how you think about risk, sacrifice, and what it really takes to be in the top 1 percent.📲 Follow Elliott on IG: @elliottcaldwell https://www.instagram.com/elliottcaldwell/  🏡 Follow The Rise Collective: @the_rise_collective_ https://www.instagram.com/the_rise_collective_/ 🌐 More about The Rise Collective: https://rise-collective.com/  🔑 Explore BnB Turnkey: https://bnb-turnkey.com/  📩 Subscribe to the STR Report newsletter: https://thestrreport.com/  📲 Follow Greg ToddInstagram: @gregtoddpt ​​https://www.instagram.com/gregtoddpt?igsh=MWsyMWl6MTJyam9vMg==TikTok: @gregtoddpt https://www.tiktok.com/@gregtoddpt?_r=1&_t=ZP-93JbvaFnQT9Smart Success Healthcare: https://smartsuccesshealthcare.com/summit?utm_source=ig&fbclid=PAVERFWAPgerVleHRuA2FlbQIxMABzcnRjBmFwcF9pZA8xMjQwMjQ1NzQyODc0MTQAAafu6dlS-ozbeUpF1asxIUs5HnHrDbW_KCk_Y9cpNBQkzlKsPP4h3ZXYFrWMIw_aem_4O-lPrZuuP7K0iELq8whiw
