Episode 59: How to Navigate the Vaccine Question as a Chiro

Episode 48: Most people don’t stay because of Chiropractic

Episode 42: Working Harder and More isn't the Answer
Our mentality to GROW past a "plateau" is usually focused on doing MORE. Work longer. Try harder. See more NPs. But what stops us is something called "The Ceiling of Complexity". Getting to your next goal is not always LINEAR. Meaning you can't always just ADD +1 and expect you will grow at the...

Episode 40: Create Don't Emulate Your Ideal Practice

Episode 36: The Tale of Two Flawed Leadership Style: The Micro-Manager vs The Visionary
Leadership is not talked about enough when it comes to running a practice. We often believe being a LEADER is inborn and can't be learned. And so we don't spend a great deal of time learning to improve on it. However, leadership filters top-down into every part of the business. This includes the...

Episode 35: Your Logo is NOT Your Brand
We all know BRANDING is an essential part of your business. But "branding" is not what most people think it is. It is not your logo. It is not what colours you use. It is not what font you choose.
