Has there been a period of practice (or maybe it’s been your entire practice life) where you’ve felt like your Chiropractic Assistant’s are holding you hostage?

I don’t mean “putting a gun to your head” or even threatening to leave you… it could just be performing at sub-par levels, ignoring their full responsibilities or adding unwanted drama to your business.

You can’t continue to operate and grow a successful, low stress practice without the ability to make fearless decisions that are in your best interest.

On this episode of Life By Design For Chiropractors we give you actions steps to help preempt being held hostage and how to manage your mental state when it’s time to make a change. Read More

Pricing, practice visits, retention, expenses… are ALL practice levers with significant power to increase or abolish your bottom line.

Yet, pulling these levers in your favour depends deeply on ONE character trait.

This single character trait you’ll find in the vast majority of the “ultra-successful” entrepreneurs, athletes and yes, chiropractors.

What is it?

No I’m not talking about jurisprudence, about screening assessments or note taking… the type of risk tolerance we care about for today’s episode is taking calculated action.

The reason it’s such an important discussion is because at it’s core are two pieces that are often avoided:

Risk and action.

The point of this podcast is to give you a deeper appreciation for why you should consider improving your risk tolerance and help you overcome the anxiety that might be keeping you from pulling the trigger on to-do’s that would have a massive impact on your Return On Investment in all areas of life.

At Life By Design For Chiropractors we love talking about your team!

In part, it’s because we understand just how important they are to a successful business… and two, because choosing, onboarding and developing a world class team is such an overlooked part for the majority of practices we see.

Check out this scenario and let me know if it sounds familiar:

A team member quits (again) for a host of reasons that could be avoided AND you had an idea it was probably coming but did nothing (again) to prepare yourself.

Finally you find someone who “needs” a job and they get thrown into the mix with little training and within a few weeks you’re frustrated they’re not meeting your expected needs.

…soon the cycle continues… 🙁

Obviously it doesn’t need to be this way, in fact, it can’t continue like this if your goal is a successful, low stress, high profit practice.

On this episode of Life by Design For Chiropractors we discuss the first 5 requirements to build an extraordinary team! Read More

Somewhere along the way (or maybe right from the get go) the perspective on a successful business and practice went sideways.

It become about maximum numbers at all costs, even at the cost of profitability and your own happiness.

Within the past year Shawna has redefined what “success” meant for her and has now created the practice to match!
