    104 How to lead when you feel like giving up

    Send us a textHello and welcome back to the Treat Your Business Podcast! Today I want to have a really honest chat with you. Let's face it, running a clinic can be incredibly tough. It's not all rainbows and pilates classes, is it? There are moments when it feels like everything is just too much.In this episode, I'm sharing personal stories, some practical strategies, and a few hard truths about what it really takes to lead when you feel like giving up. If you're feeling overwhelmed, burnt out, or just plain fed up, this one's for you.So, make yourself a brew, take a deep breath, and let's dive in.What's Covered in This Episode?You're Not AloneEvery clinic owner I know has hit that wall at some point. I've been there myself. Whether it's demanding clients, team challenges, or financial pressures, those moments of “I can't do this anymore” are more common than you think. It's okay to feel this way.Reality Check on LeadershipLet's talk about what it really means to be a leader. It's emotional, messy, and sometimes downright exhausting. But here's the thing: your feelings don't define your ability to lead. It's what you do next that matters.Actionable StrategiesI share the exact steps I've taken (and still take) when everything feels like it's falling apart:Pause and Brain Dump: Get everything out of your head and onto paper. You can't tackle the overwhelm until you know what's actually causing it.Break the Isolation: Talk to someone who gets it—a mentor, a trusted friend, or even a business group. Leaning on others isn't a weakness; it's a strength.Focus on Small Wins: Start each day by celebrating three small victories. Progress happens one step at a time, even if it feels slow.Reconnect with Your Why: Remind yourself why you started your clinic. Read your reviews and remember the impact you're having on people's lives.Let Go of What No Longer Serves You: Whether it's outdated services, inefficient systems, or even toxic team members, sometimes you've got to make tough decisions to move forward.Key TakeawaysLeadership isn't about doing it all. It's about doing what matters most.Feeling overwhelmed doesn't mean you're failing; it means you care.Progress is built one small step at a time, so focus on the next brick in your wall.You're not alone. Whether it's reaching out to your team, a community, or your business coach, support is there if you ask for it.Tough times don't last, but tough leaders do.If today's episode resonated with you, I'd love to hear from you.

    Send us a textHi there, and welcome to this week's episode of Treat Your Business! I'm Katie, and today, we're diving into one of the most universal but often unspoken challenges among high achievers—imposter syndrome. It's that inner voice that makes us doubt our accomplishments, no matter how much we've achieved. If you've ever questioned your worth, felt like you don't deserve success, or found yourself caught in cycles of perfectionism or self-doubt, this episode is for you.Episode Summary:In this episode, we explore the roots and realities of imposter syndrome—what it is, why it shows up, and how it holds us back from reaching our full potential in business and life. Katie shares her personal journey with imposter syndrome, recounting moments of self-doubt, overachievement, and the struggle to embrace success fully. She discusses the subconscious behaviours that lead to self-sabotage and shares insights from coaching hundreds of clinic owners who experience similar hurdles. Through stories and practical examples, Katie offers strategies to understand and tackle these inner challenges, encouraging listeners to recognise their own worth, celebrate their achievements, and avoid the perfectionism trap.Katie also dives into the "7 out of 10" principle, a practical approach for combating procrastination by embracing “good enough” rather than perfection, and the importance of avoiding comparison. We explore specific ways to cultivate a mindset of abundance, embrace our achievements, and surround ourselves with supportive people, like coaches, who can help us overcome imposter syndrome's effects on our confidence and business growth.Key Takeaways:Recognise Imposter Syndrome: Understand what it is and why many high achievers experience it.Embrace Imperfection: Aim for a "7 out of 10" rather than perfection to keep moving forward.Celebrate Success: Take time to acknowledge achievements rather than focusing solely on what's left to do.Avoid Comparison: Unfollow competitors and focus on your unique strengths and value.Surround Yourself with Support: Seek mentors, coaches, and people who uplift and inspire you.Shift from Fear to Abundance: Reframe risk and opportunity to break free from self-doubt and fear of failure.Thank you for joining me on Treat Your Business!

    Send us a textHi, I'm Katie Bell, and welcome to this off-the-cuff episode of Treat Your Business. Today, we're diving deep into a concept that could transform how you run your clinic or business: essentialism and the art of strategic sacrifice. As you gear up for the end-of-year madness, I'm giving you permission to pause, refocus, and invest your time where it matters most. If you've been feeling overwhelmed, spinning plates at a hundred miles an hour, or like you're the lowest paid in your own company, this one is for you!Episode Summary:In today's episode, we explore the concept of essentialism: the disciplined pursuit of less but better. Inspired by insights from the Expert Empires Conference and conversations with fellow clinic owners, I'm here to share why strategy is the art of sacrifice and how being strategic can lead to more fulfilment, better financial outcomes, and a thriving business.We'll discuss how clinic owners often struggle with having a master plan, leading to feelings of spinning plates endlessly. I'll guide you through practical methods to focus on essential activities that drive results, like filtering out distractions, saying no with confidence, and making wise investments of your time and energy.We'll cover real trade-offs, like choosing between taking on one more client versus prioritising your personal well-being, and explore why being reactive is costing you progress. Essentialism is about structured, disciplined approaches, and I'll share actionable tips, including how to manage your inbox, stop multitasking, and schedule your day like a strategic powerhouse. Plus, I've got a special resource for you on how the recent Autumn Budget impacts your clinic.Key Takeaways:Essentialism Over Multitasking: Focus on fewer, high-impact activities to achieve significant results.Strategic Sacrifice: Saying yes to what truly matters means saying no to distractions.Discipline and Structure: Success comes from having a structured plan and sticking to it, not from doing everything at once.Efficient Time Management: Create a schedule that serves your goals, not other people's demands.Thank you so much for joining me today!

    Send us a textWelcome to another episode of Treat Your Business! In this episode, we dive deep into a topic that resonates with so many clinic owners and entrepreneurs—imposter syndrome. As a clinic owner myself, I know how that nagging voice of self-doubt can hold us back from achieving our full potential. Imposter syndrome can manifest in countless ways, often making us feel inadequate, even when we're highly capable and successful.I share my personal journey, from missing university entry requirements to becoming a successful physiotherapist and business coach. Throughout the episode, I discuss how imposter syndrome affects high achievers, how it shows up in everyday clinic life, and—most importantly—how to manage and overcome it.Whether you're just starting out or have been in business for years, this episode will help you recognise imposter syndrome when it creeps in and equip you with tools to push through it, so you can continue growing your clinic with confidence.Key Takeaways:Understanding Imposter Syndrome: It's a psychological pattern where individuals doubt their achievements and fear being exposed as a fraud, despite having evidence of their success.Common Triggers: High achievers, like clinic owners, often face perfectionism, overworking, and self-sabotage, which can hinder their growth.Managing Self-Doubt: You can't eliminate self-doubt, but you can manage it by using practical tools such as the “7 out of 10” rule, which helps you avoid perfectionism and procrastination.The Power of Community: Surround yourself with supportive mentors and peers, and celebrate your wins with our #FridayCheers challenge to shift your focus to positive accomplishments.The Importance of Coaching: Having a coach provides accountability and support to tackle imposter syndrome head-on, helping you make decisions from a place of abundance rather than fear.Tune in to learn how to manage imposter syndrome and make bold moves for your clinic's success!Resources: BUY YOUR TICKET TO CLINIC GROWTH LIVE https://events.thrive-businesscoaching.com/clinicgrowthlive Join this months FREE masterclass https://join.thrive-businesscoaching.com/masterclass-registration Score App: https://bizhealthcheck.scoreapp.com/ Book a Discovery Call to find out how our programs can help you grow your business https://call.thrive-businesscoaching.com/discovery-call If you've found value in this podcast, I'd greatly appreciate it if you could take a moment to leave a review.

I'm Katie Bell, your host, and I'm thrilled to bring you something truly special this week. We've got an incredible treat in store as I'm joined by my fabulous coaches, Nichola and Philippa, for another round of Coach's Corner. We're diving deep into the two missing ingredients that we see holding back clinic owners from achieving the success they desire.Episode SummaryIn this episode, we explore why so many clinic owners feel stuck, burnt out, and frustrated despite working tirelessly on their businesses. Nicola, Philippa, and I discuss the two crucial elements that often go unnoticed but are essential for creating a thriving clinic: mindset and having a clear master plan. We use the analogy of a cherry blossom tree to illustrate how many business owners focus on fixing the branches—like marketing or hiring—without addressing the roots (mindset) and the trunk (strategy) that support the entire business. We also share insights on why working on your mindset and having a strong, clear strategy are non-negotiable for long-term success.Key TakeawaysMindset Matters: Your business is a direct reflection of your beliefs, values, and mindset. Without a solid foundation, no amount of strategy or tactics will yield lasting success.Master Plan: Knowing your destination and having a clear plan to get there is crucial. Without this, your business efforts will feel scattered and ineffective.Strategy Before Tactics: Before diving into marketing or team-building, it's essential to establish a strong strategy that aligns with your goals and values.Continuous Growth: Mindset work and strategic planning are ongoing processes. As your business grows, so too should your mindset and your master plan.Community and Support: Surrounding yourself with like-minded, successful people is key. Events like our upcoming Clinic Growth Live are designed to provide the community, knowledge, and inspiration you need to take your clinic to the next level.Join us for this insightful episode and learn how to shift from being overwhelmed and exhausted to confident and successful in your clinic business.Resources: BUY YOUR TICKET TO CLINIC GROWTH LIVE https://events.thrive-businesscoaching.com/clinicgrowthlive Join this months FREE masterclass https://join.thrive-businesscoaching.com/masterclass-registration Score App: https://bizhealthcheck.scoreapp.com/ Book a Discovery Call to find out how our programs can help you grow your business https://call.thrive-businesscoaching.com/discovery-call If you've found value in this podcast, I'd greatly appreciate it if you could take a moment to leave a review.

    Send us a Text Message.Hello and welcome to this episode of the Treat Your Business podcast! I hope you're having a fabulous day. In this episode, we're revisiting a crucial topic from episode 12: valuing our time as clinic owners. Despite our best efforts, many of us still struggle with time management and implementing the changes we learn about. Let's dive back into understanding our hourly rate and its impact on our business.Episode Summary:In this episode, we explore the importance of knowing your hourly rate and how it affects your clinic's success. We revisit key insights from episode 12, discussing why many clinic owners undervalue their time and struggle to implement what they learn from masterclasses and training. By understanding and recalculating your hourly rate, you can make better business decisions, delegate effectively, and ultimately grow your clinic.Key Takeaways:Understanding Your Hourly Rate: Recognising the true value of your time is crucial. It's not just about charging for your time with clients but considering your years of training, experience, and ongoing professional development.Challenges in Valuing Time: Many clinic owners undervalue their time due to past experiences in the NHS or working with insurance companies that set low reimbursement rates.The Importance of Pricing: Regularly revisiting and adjusting your pricing structure is essential. Your prices should reflect your expertise and the value you provide to your clients.Delegation for Growth: Identifying low-value tasks that can be delegated allows you to focus on higher-value activities that drive your business forward.Mindset Shifts: Overcoming the fear of raising prices and understanding the broader impact on your business can lead to greater financial stability and less burnout.Business Development: Spending time on business development tasks rather than getting bogged down by low-value administrative tasks is vital for long-term growth.Action Steps:Re-evaluate Your Prices: Take a hard look at your current pricing structure and adjust it to better reflect your value and the cost of providing services.Track Your Tasks: For a week, note down every task you do and categorise them by value. Delegate tasks that don't need your direct attention.Focus on High-Value Activities: Prioritise tasks that will help grow your business and improve your financial outcomes.Thank you for tuning into Resources: BUY YOUR TICKET TO CLINIC GROWTH LIVE https://events.thrive-businesscoaching.com/clinicgrowthlive Join this months FREE masterclass https://join.thrive-businesscoaching.com/masterclass-registration Score App: https://bizhealthcheck.scoreapp.com/ Book a Discovery Call to find out how our programs can help you grow your business https://call.thrive-businesscoaching.com/discovery-call If you've found value in this podcast, I'd greatly appreciate it if you could take a moment to leave a review.

    Send us a Text Message.Hi everyone, it's Katie Bell here. I'm thrilled to welcome you to another episode of the Treat Your Business podcast. This week, I have the pleasure of welcoming back Michael Schumacher, whose episodes are always among the most popular. We've had countless conversations, rants, and laughs about the industry, and today we're bringing that energy to you. Let's dive in!Episode SummaryIn this episode, Michael and I discuss the reality of running a clinic and why it's such hard work. We tackle the myth of the “magic pill” that promises quick success and share our frustrations about misleading industry advice. We also provide actionable insights on how to manage your clinic effectively without falling for unrealistic promises. Be warned, we don't hold back and there may be some swearing, so if you're listening with kids around, you might want to save this for later.Key TakeawaysThe Reality of Hard Work: Running a business is incredibly challenging. There are no quick fixes or magic pills. Success comes from consistent, hard work and dedication.Misleading Industry Advice: Beware of gurus promising easy money or quick success. These often lead to wasted money and frustration.Importance of Consistency: Consistency in your business practices, marketing, and client engagement is crucial for long-term success.Valuing Your Time: As a clinic owner, it's essential to recognise your value and delegate tasks that don't require your direct involvement. This allows you to focus on what you do best.Pricing Strategy: Don't be afraid to adjust your pricing to reflect the quality and value of your services. Often, higher prices can lead to better business outcomes.Leveraging Team Strengths: Building a strong team and knowing each member's strengths can help streamline operations and improve client satisfaction.Continuous Improvement: Even successful businesses need to innovate and adapt to stay ahead. Regularly review and improve your processes and services.Connect with MichaelYou can find more about Michael Schumacher and his work at HMDG.
