Better Skills. Better Doctors.

Send us Fan Mail Today I want to address a behavior that so many people get caught up in from time to time, including myself, which is failing ahead of time. It's the action of coming up with an idea or a dream and then almost in the same breath convincing yourself that it wont work with a list of reasons why. If this sounds like you, then this episode is for you. Links mention in this episod...

Send us Fan Mail It’s January! And this is usually the time when people set goals.  Goals are often really helpful for people. It gives people some sort of direction or a reference point from where they are now and can prevent people from wandering around aimlessly.  But the reality is that MOST people don't set them because, when it comes down to it, they don't want to disappoint themse...

Send us Fan Mail This episode tackles the challenges of managing non-compliant patients, setting boundaries, and releasing clients from care with compassion.  We dive into strategies to handle missed appointments, miscommunications, and the fear of negative feedback, while exploring how practitioners often attract patients reflecting their own growth journeys. If you are seeking some ideas on how...

Send us Fan Mail Happy New Year! In this episode Michael and I share our summary of 2024 from both a business and personal perspective. We cover: What we did well. What we could have done differently or better (and what we learned). Things that were new, and.. Things that are on the horizon for 2025.  We love these types of episode because we're just like you - real people running a business...

Send us Fan Mail Start the new year by aligning your practice with your values.  In this episode, we explore the benefits of mentorship, the trappings of working with mentors who have different value system than yours, the importance of integrity over profit, and how staying true to your mission creates long-term success.  If this content and material resonates with you and you would like to pursu...

Send us Fan Mail We’ve all made changes in our clinics over the years. Or perhaps you are currently wanting to make changes, but aren’t sure how your patients will respond to the new way of doing things.  Whether you're thinking about implementing a new system, a new treatment strategy, a new pricing structure, or raising your rates you will find this episode helpful. So have a listen and enj...

Send us Fan Mail It being mid-December I thought it would be appropriate to do an episode on holiday slow-downs in business.  I know this is something many of you experience during this time of the year. And you may think it's just normal and to be expected.  But that doesn't have to be the case! This episode addresses some action steps you can take to  intentionally  have a busy or a sl...

Send us Fan Mail Today we’re going to talk about something that comes up for so many of you: discounting your services. As a practitioner and a business owner, this is one of those sneaky habits that feels helpful and kind in the moment but ultimately works against you, your patients, and your business. The reason why this is such an important topic is because discounting creates confusion, resent...

Send us Fan Mail In a world that feels more chaotic than ever—where negativity seems to dominate headlines and social media feeds—it can be easy to lose sight of the positive.  For many of you it may feel like negativity is everywhere, and there’s actually a very good reason for that. If this is you, have a listen. If this content and material resonates with you and you would like to pursue coachi...

Send us Fan Mail Today I want to tackle a belief that keeps so many self-employed Chinese medicine physicians stuck: the idea that we can’t just make more money. That our earning potential is somehow limited. This couldn’t be further from the truth. Our earning potential is actually unlimited, but most of you are practicing in a way that caps how much you can earn and how many people you can help....

Send us Fan Mail "Keeping the Peace" is just another form of people pleasing. People pleasing is something that many people struggle with. Including myself. It stems from being unwilling to feel the discomfort of someone else being disappointed or feeling hurt, angry, or offended.  If you have been told to ignore how you feel or what you want in order to "keep the peace" or str...

Send us Fan Mail It's a common belief among people with children who are building a business, or want to build a business, that they are at a disadvantage. That you can't build a successful business AND be there for your children. And it's a belief that I see is holding a lot of people back from creating the life and business that they want. In my opinion, parents are more equipped...

Send us Fan Mail This is a very special episode because we our first IN-studio guest join us! We chatted with Robin Maza, L.Ac. (@tevaholistic) about her journey in Chinese medicine. For the past 11 years there have been starts and stops in her practice as she grew her family and moved to a new state. She shared with us the challenges of starting again as well as the gifts that come along with sta...

Send us Fan Mail I’m turning 47 this week. And in celebration of my birthday I wanted to do an episode on age and possibility.  I thought it was important to do an episode on this because the vast majority of people in this profession are women. And a high number of you entered this profession as a second career, later in life, or you started a family that delayed things a bit. And so for many of...

Send us Fan Mail Today’s episode is a little bit outside of the usual business and entrepreneurship talk. Today I talk about finding your purpose. People want to go through their lives with a purpose. It gives people the sense that what they are doing is toward something worthwhile. They want to feel selfless and like they are making an impact and a contribution to the world.  Ironically, the sear...

Send us Fan Mail I talk a lot about pushing yourself and doing things even when you don’t feel like it. Getting to a place in your business where you start feeling discomfort and pushing through anyway and taking action even when you’re not at your best.  I realize that people may hear this and think that I'm promoting Hustle Culture, which is NOT the case at all.  Success is NOT an either/or...

Send us Fan Mail Each year when I set goals I like to choose a word of the year. A word that acts as a theme to follow for all the actions I take over the course of the year.  The past couple of years I have chosen the same word of the year and it has led me to build more confidence, self-trust, and self-love than ever before. Which resulted in the most personal and business growth I have ever had...

Send us Fan Mail A lot of what I talk about is taking action and the thoughts you need, the mental strength, and the emotional fuel needed to take massive action. Taking massive action is how we evolve and move forward.  I don’t spend as much time talking about the other side and that’s inaction. I’m usually trying to inspire people to take massive action, but talking about inaction is just as imp...

Send us Fan Mail Next to money, time seems to be a big source of people’s problems. Like with money, the biggest complaint is that there’s never enough.  Never enough time to do everything you need to do. Let alone want to do.  Usually people tend to prioritize the things they need to do first and then once those are all out of the way then they will do the things they want to do. And this is usua...

Send us Fan Mail As Chinese medicine is getting more popular and mainstream, and more patients are becoming disheartened by the conventional medicine model and insurance model, being able to differentiate yourself from others is going to be a crucial part of your marketing strategy. Becoming a trusted source is one way to set yourself apart from the pack and to attract your ideal patients.  **Disc...

Send us Fan Mail It does no good to learn all the clinical skills if your patients don’t commit to their treatment plan or take their medicine, right? You can take every herbal medicine course and learn every sales technique in the book, but none of those are going to land if you’re missing the key ingredient to patient commitment and compliance.  If you have trouble with patient compliance this e...

Send us Fan Mail We all take little, subtle jabs at ourselves. Usually couching it in humorous self-deprecation. Sometimes we do this because we think we're being humble. But those little jabs can add up and it's surprising how damaging they can be to our self-confidence. Negative self-talk isn't the only thing that erodes our confidence. There's another surprising behavior tha...
