PT Pintcast - Physical Therapy

The Important Lesson a Tree Can Teach You TodayI got stuck in a RUT.After taking a 1.5-month hiatus from podcasting because my mom was sick, and wound up passing away it's been hard to get back.Just to talk to people, taking the step of sharing my face, voice, words, thoughts, and emotions.It's hard to take the first step, and the second, and the fifth...But I saw something on a tree today that taught me a lesson... so I grabbed my mic and ran with it to make sure I could share it with you.

When you do things with a group you have a better chance of continuing. Things like exercise. So why wouldn't we want people who desperately need to exercise to join a group built around it?Dr. Leslie Waltke talks about this idea in the form of Team Phoenix. An innovative 14-week fitness and research program in which a leadership team of multidisciplinary clinicians, triathlon coaches and volunteers encourage and assist cancer survivors to regain endurance, strength, flexibility, and overall health and wellness after cancer treatment by training for a sprint-distance triathlon.

The show took an unexpected month and a half hiatus. My mom got sick and then died in just a few months.This left me lost, overwhelmed, confused, and sad.This didn't go away immediately and if I'm being honest (which we get in this episode) it still hasn't.I've been told that the worst hasn't come yet and I'm beginning to believe that.We bring in an expert, Dr. of Clinical Psychology Jamie Hagenbaugh to help me figure this out, and maybe some of you have some advice too.PT Pintcast is Brewed by:FYZICAL Therapy and Balance CentersDo you want to open a Physical Therapy Practice?Thinking about selling your practice?You should know this: on average, a private practice that joins the FYZICAL network grows more than 40%!If you're ready to discover how the largest network of PT private practice owners are growing and adapting to industry changes, visit FYZICALFranchise.comCBD RX 4 U .comYOUR CBD Store - get the ABC's of CBD at CBDRX4u.comMW TherapyAn EMR is to a Physical Therapist as a Hammer is to a Carpenter. You deserve to LOVE USING IT!It's time for something better.

Kevin Mercier: 7- Tips to Explode Profits Selling a Physical Therapy PracticeKevin Mercier is the Director of Strategic Development for FYZICAL Therapy & Balance Centers. Kevin believes your business is your vehicle to get what you want out of life. Business owners should maximize the value of their practice by developing a wealthy exit strategy. Kevin discusses how to develop an exit strategy for the physical therapy private practice owner. The biggest metric a buyer is going to look at is your EBITDA or earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization. Timing is everything when you're looking to exit from not only the state of the world but the state of the industry. As a seller, the most important thing you need to do is see what's out there and get the most value for your business aside from who the buyer may be. Episode Takeaways Planning a wealthy exit from PT private practiceKnow your starting and landing pointWhat to expect when selling your practiceImportant metrics buyers are looking atHow to attract potential buyersWhat your practice is worth - size, location, buyer demand Three Questions  Where would you go within the 50 US States and live for 3 months?
