From choosing physical therapy early on to navigating a system that often falls short, she shares how her path evolved—and why she decided to do things differently.They talk about the gap between school and real-world practice, the realities of postpartum recovery, and why treating the mom and baby together changes everything. Dr. Kelsey also breaks down her shift away from insurance-based care, what it takes to build a direct-pay business, and how she balances entrepreneurship with raising a family. This episode highlights what’s missing in modern care—and what it looks like to create something better.Timestamps:03:00 — Choosing physical therapy & early career path08:00 — What PT school really teaches vs real-world experience12:00 — Why she shifted to working with moms & babies18:00 — The gap in postpartum care & supporting both mom + child27:00 — Starting a business & first client/payment experience37:00 — Leaving the traditional system & going direct pay45:00 — Balancing motherhood, career, and building something newIf this episode gave you a new perspective on healthcare, motherhood, or building a business that actually helps people, make sure to like, comment, and subscribe for more conversations.#PhysicalTherapy #Postpartum #MomsAndBabies #Entrepreneurship #Healthcare #LasVegas #BenThinking
