Did you know that overlooking just a few tax deductions could leave hundreds, if not thousands of dollars on the table? I recently sat down to chat with Danielle Hayden, a seasoned CPA and founder of Kickstart Accounting, Inc. She dropped some gems that could reshape how you approach your finances as a Traveling Therapist. First up, separating your business and personal expenses. It can be tempting to swipe your personal card for a quick work lunch or buy office supplies while shopping for home essentials. But, being meticulous here ensures you're capitalizing on every legitimate deduction. Now, if you're netting between $50K and $75K annually, it might be time to consider structuring as an S Corp. Yep, paying yourself a reasonable salary can seriously cut down on that self-employment tax burden. And trust me, having a business structure that aligns with your income level is a game-changer. Here's a golden nugget: pay attention to how you show up financially. Are you grabbing that coffee to brainstorm some work ideas? Use your business card. But if it's just a morning treat, stick with personal finances. It hurts to see money wasted, especially thinking it's saving taxes. Spending $1 to save $0.40 isn't smart. Have you ever been told to go on a spending spree to reduce your taxable income? That advice can backfire, big time. Nicole, one of Danielle's clients, faced debt after following such misguided advice. Key points Separate Business and Personal Expenses: Keeping business and personal expenses distinct helps ensure you're maximizing every legitimate tax deduction. Consider S Corp Structure: If your net income is between $50K and $75K, structuring as an S Corp and paying yourself a reasonable salary can reduce self-employment taxes. Track Deductions and Expenses: Meticulously track deductions like home office use, mileage, and business-related expenses to avoid wasting money and ensure you're financially optimized year-round. About Danielle Hayden: Danielle Hayden is the Co-Founder and CEO of Kickstart Accounting, Inc. a bookkeeping and accounting firm that is on a mission to coach six figure (+ beyond) female entrepreneurs so they can better understand their numbers through bookkeeping, financial analysis, and support so they can grow profitable, sustainable and enjoyable businesses. With over 15 years experience in the world of finance, Danielle has worked her way from accounting firm intern to the Co-Founder of Kickstart Accounting. She understands how complex business finances can be, and she knows that entrepreneurs need more than just a bookkeeper; they need real financial analysis and support in order to get the confidence required to create the sustainable wealth they deserve. Danielle brings a unique perspective when it comes to providing business owners with “the total package” as it relates to their finances. She has been a guest on multiple top-rated shows including, The EntreMD Podcast, Private Practice Workshop and Practice of the Practice. She is also the host of the Business By the books podcast. When Danielle isn't in her money mindset work you can find her hiking or spending time with her family.

The Catalyst: Sparking Creative Transformation in Healthcare
“I had a great job. I loved it. I had great work hours. I had a great life balance. I had all of these things, but there has to be more,” says Dr. Nneka Unachukwu, also known as Dr. Una, the founder of EntreMD—a company that empowers physicians to build profitable businesses and reclaim their autonomy in the medical field. This week, Dr. Una sits down with Dr. Lara Salyer to share her journey from feeling unfulfilled in a traditional medical role to finding success as an entrepreneur. What does it take to step away from the conventional path? For Dr. Una, the realization that practicing medicine wasn't enough sparked her exploration into entrepreneurship, leading to a career that's not only more satisfying but also more impactful. Dr. Una shares the challenges she faced while transitioning from clinician to entrepreneur, stressing the importance of acquiring business skills and adopting a new mindset to succeed outside the traditional medical system. She emphasizes the value of recognizing and leveraging the inherent skills physicians possess, such as communication, problem-solving, and content creation, which are crucial in the business world. Dr. Una also talks about building a personal brand and how physicians can use their expertise to create diverse career opportunities through consulting, speaking engagements, and other entrepreneurial ventures. The episode goes beyond just personal stories, delving into the systemic issues within healthcare that often lead to physician burnout. Is it time for a shift towards a more holistic and self-expressive approach to medical practice? Dr. Salyer and Dr. Una think so. They advocate for designing a career that's more like a “work-life masterpiece” rather than chasing the elusive work-life balance, encouraging physicians to align their careers with their personal values and passions. Dr. Una's insights serve as a guide for physicians who are curious about entrepreneurship but want to maintain their professional integrity and personal well-being. This episode of The Catalyst is a must-listen for anyone interested in how physicians can create meaningful change in their lives and the healthcare system by embracing entrepreneurial principles and reimagining their roles beyond traditional practice. Quotes • “The next evolution is to become an entrepreneur because opening a business does not make you an entrepreneur; there's another evolution that's required.” (10:22 | Dr. Nneka Unachukwu) • “The question is then, can I have enough of an impact building a private practice, the system of it, that I can earn as much as I earn as a pediatrician taking care of patients? These are all things I started thinking about… We need to retool ourselves because what is coming requires us to negotiate, understand money, and build personal brands that will work. We need to be able to evolve and explore—all of us, right?” (13:56 | Dr. Nneka Unachukwu) • “In the entrepreneurial world, we emphasize building your dream business and your dream life concurrently. The concept is that when you were in med school, you postponed your life. When you were in residency, you postponed your life. You started the dream job that you thought would give you back your life, and you had to postpone your life a little more. While you're building the business, you're building your dream life. You get better at building the business, and you get better at the dream life. They're both twins; they're growing together.” (17:30 | Dr. Nneka Unachukwu) • “Every physician is an entrepreneur. You may be ignoring your business, but every physician is an entrepreneur. The reason I say that is because every physician has a business, and that is their personal brand. Everybody knows it's a business except us.” (33:14 | Dr. Nneka Unachukwu) Links Connect with Nneka Unachukwu, M.D.: Website: www.entremd.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/nneka.chinemeunachukwu Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drunachukwu LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/druna/ The EntreMD Podcast: https://entremd.buzzsprout.com Connect with Lara: Website: https://drlarasalyer.com The Catalyst Way: https://drlarasalyer.com/catalyst Instagram: @drlarasalyer Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/drlarasalyer Linked-In: https://www.linkedin.com/in/drlarasalyer/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/DrLaraSalyer TikTok: @Creativity.Doctor Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm

With the alarming statistic that 30% of rural medical centers are at risk of closure, we healthcare professionals need to rise to the occasion and bring about change in the industry.The No. 1 thing we need to do is protect profits. In any business, that is how you prevent failure. Profits are crucial for sustaining a business and serving people effectively.In this podcast episode, I help you understand the math of business and how to take proactive steps in managing your business to maintain profitability.We physicians are geared toward serving others, and the only way to keep doing what we love is by safeguarding our financial stability. Listen in for my insight and education—this is exactly why I call The EntreMD Podcast the free MBA for physicians!// COMMUNITY: EntreMD Private Group on FacebookJoin a group of physicians who have decided to build profitable businesses, so they have the freedom to live life and practice medicine on their terms. https://www.facebook.com/groups/entremd// FOLLOWFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/drunachukwuInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/drunachukwuYouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@DrUnachukwuTikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@dr.unaLinkedIn - www.linkedIn.com/in/druna// WORK WITH MEEntreMD Business School - https://www.entremd.com/business
In this episode of The EntreMD Podcast, we're going to UNLEARN rather than learn.Physicians are service-oriented by nature. But we MUST unlearn the concept of serving for free. And this is not so we can live a lavish lifestyle but because earning is critical to keeping our businesses open! So if you're connecting the dots here, you're seeing you must earn to continue to serve. If you truly want to continue serving patients or clients—and more patients and clients!—it's essential to your business' survival to get paid. Stop working for free. You might think you're not working for free, but it's time to take a good, hard look. For example, you're working for free if you don't require pay at the time of service. (Billing later doesn't work and requires time and money spent to follow up.) You're working for free if your client paid for a 5-session package and you're throwing in some extra sessions just because. You're working for free if you have a DPC practice and make yourself available all the time. Your time is worth A LOT, and they're getting it for nothing!Every minute spent working for free is time taken away from family, personal growth, and self-care. Physicians must consider the opportunity cost of working for free.Working for free is expensive and prevents business growth and financial freedom. Physicians, we must stop working for free and start owning our value as physician entrepreneurs.// COMMUNITY: EntreMD Private Group on FacebookJoin a group of physicians who have decided to build profitable businesses, so they have the freedom to live life and practice medicine on their terms.https://www.facebook.com/groups/entremd// FOLLOWFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/drunachukwuInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/drunachukwuYouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@DrUnachukwuTikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@dr.unaLinkedIn - www.linkedIn.com/in/druna// WORK WITH MEEntreMD Business School - https://www.entremd.com/business
Physicians have what it takes to be the BEST entrepreneurs.Why?Because we have staying power. We have the ability to stick with something over time to accomplish a greater goal.For many of us, it took a whole decade to become a physician. We took the time necessary to build those muscles little by little until we became physician bodybuilders!And that's the exact same concept and dedication it takes for entrepreneurs to flourish.Everything is tied to the kind of muscles we build. If you do things the lazy way or you choose to let worry take over, you are building laziness and worry.But if you persevere through the tough and scary things, you're building that muscle of discipline.You want to keep this image of a bodybuilder in mind. We are all bodybuilders, but the question is what kinds of muscles are we building? Do I have this body that's made of muscles of laziness, worry, inconsistency, procrastinating on marketing, procrastinating on selling, not putting myself out there, yielding to fear?Or have I chosen to build muscle around the concepts of consistency, discipline, confidence, effort, and success?Every time we make a decision, we are contributing to a muscle being built—and we have the power to use those muscles to our advantage in business!

I am not an advocate for physicians leaving medicine.What I am is an advocate for physicians practicing medicine on their terms, which might look like owning a private practice or individual weight loss coaching or courses for physician financials.I want you to do what you want to do, doctors!Whatever you do, you will want to make sure your business can function without you. I know you don't want to step away or sell it right now, but building a business that is sellable makes it an asset. And that means you have options.I want doctors to have options!Imagine building a business on something you love and then being able to love it even more because you get it to a place where it can run without you so you can ... travel every month, take a year sabbatical, operate it from a distance, or even sell it and retire!Yes, this is possible. I am living it.Do I think of selling my practice right now? No. Do I take comfort in knowing I have options? YES! I've been away from it for 17 months, so I know it won't fall apart (it's actually grown since I made my move from practicing physician to CEO!).In today's EntreMD Podcast episode, I give you a behind-the-scenes look at how I build businesses that are assets and why that's critical in entrepreneurship.

You worked so hard in your high school years to get into a great pre-med program. You got in; you arrived.Then you worked so hard in pre-med to get into a great med school. You got in; you arrived.This pattern happened throughout school, residency, fellowship, etc.But now it's different. As a physician entrepreneur, there is no "arrival."And that is the best possible news because it means you don't need to put your whole life on hold for this endeavor; you get to simultaneously build your dream life and live it!There's no working tirelessly until you arrive at your dream life. Being an entrepreneur means you get to start living a version of your dream life as you're building said dream life. It's beautiful and magical.And it starts with focus.In today's EntreMD Podcast episode, I explain this tried-and-true philosophy and help you move from tons of goals to just 3 to focus on. Narrowing your focus will help you accomplish more and enjoy life more.// COMMUNITY: EntreMD Private Group on FacebookJoin a group of physicians who have decided to build profitable businesses, so they have the freedom to live life and practice medicine on their terms.https://www.facebook.com/groups/entremd// FOLLOWFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/drunachukwuInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/drunachukwuYouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@DrUnachukwuTikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@dr.unaLinkedIn - www.linkedIn.com/in/druna// WORK WITH MEEntreMD Business School - https://www.entremd.com/business
Want to know what makes it easier to hire your dream team?Changing the way you see yourself.Start imagining yourself as the CEO who deserves the best (because you are, and you do!).Running through scenarios in your mind makes it SO MUCH easier when it comes to nerves and negotiation and everything related to hiring your dream team because you get to practice in your mind, anticipate situations and how you'll handle them, and envision yourself as the successful CEO you are!When obstacles present themselves, you can remind yourself you've done this many times (in your head) so you know exactly how to get past them!

All entrepreneurs deal with ups and downs, tough times, pride and joy, hard work. I won't act like it's all smooth sailing. But you know what makes it easier?Connecting the work with your why.When you strive to serve and earn, and your specific goal is financial freedom to travel or to pay for a weekly cleaning service so you have more time with your family (or whatever your why may be), suddenly all the hard work has a tangible goal tied to it. It's a prize for you to keep your eye on, motivating you. It's the push you need at times. It's a reminder of your efforts and your impact in the community and in your own home.With your dream, your why, at the top of your mind, it's much more doable to uplevel and learn how to market, learn how to sell, get comfortable talking about money, embrace any fear of speaking on stage, etc.You'll be thinking, "I'm serving people. I'm creating financial freedom that's allowing me to live my dream life."You've got this!And I've got a whole lot more where that came from in today's episode of the EntreMD Podcast!// COMMUNITY: EntreMD Private Group on FacebookJoin a group of physicians who have decided to build profitable businesses, so they have the freedom to live life and practice medicine on their terms.https://www.facebook.com/groups/entremd// FOLLOWFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/drunachukwuInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/drunachukwu YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@DrUnachukwu TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@dr.una LinkedIn - www.linkedIn.com/in/druna// WORK WITH MEEntreMD Business School - https://www.entremd.com/business
If you have found yourself wondering "is this it?" or questioning your career as a physician, you will be comforted and inspired by Dr. Funke Afolabi-Brown's story.As an employed physician, she was doing well for herself, by definition. But she felt unsettled and unsure. She didn't have another idea for a business, but she knew she needed more. And after listening to the EntreMD Podcast, she had a hunch that whatever she needed was within the EntreMD Business School.Her hunch was spot on! She joined and is absolutely thriving ... she's become the go-to in her area and was even interviewed on ABC recently. She's partnered with Babycenter and, this isn't for everyone, but she turned in her resignation for employment and is going all in on her business starting in June!To have the freedom to choose that is the gift that EntreMD Business School aims to give through its education and support specifically for physician entrepreneurs.

The healthcare space has seen and will continue to see crises. But don't fear; there is a silver lining. There is a paradigm shift, and physician entrepreneurs everywhere are capitalizing on it.How?They're setting up business systems around their own brilliance. They're monetizing their gifts. The world is benefitting and so are the physician entrepreneurs—to the tune of 6, 7, and multiple-7 figures!They're gaining the skills, confidence, support, and framework through the EntreMD Business School and its vibrant community.I share about all of this in episode #315 of The EntreMD Podcast, including a story about one physician who has served 90 physicians in her program since joining EBS.Others in EBS have shared that they made more this quarter, even though they worked less.How is this even possible?!

“You must do what others won't, commit and stay the course.” ― Bob Proctor On today's Episode #279 we will cover ✔ Top 6 Strategies Involved on Our End That Took Us to 300k Downloads of the Podcast. ✔ 6 Life-Changing Lessons I've Learned as a Byproduct of this Milestone. ✔ A Huge Thank You to ALL of You Who Listen to This Podcast! And for this special episode today, that I'm dedicating to YOU, the listener, I've got to add a quote that has stuck in my head for years that I heard in one of Bob Proctor's first cassette training programs, called You Were Born Rich[i] that you can find today on Audible.com. It was from his colleague John Kanary who joined him on stage for the recording of this live seminar that was the FIRST seminar I listened to back in the late 1990s, when my life path crossed with the personal development and seminar industry. John Kanary said “Excellence is a commitment to completion” and I wrote that down, and with time, started to integrate this concept into my daily life by making a pact to always finish what I start. I started thinking about excellence a bit before writing this episode, and how I always want to put forth my best effort with these podcast episodes, making sure they reflect my best work, with the hopes that the strategies outlined are as useful to you as they have been for me. I know I've mentioned this a few times, referencing Brendon Burchard whose version of excellence he calls “prolific quality output.”[ii] Brendon, in his book, High Performance Habits says that “High performers have mastered the art of prolific quality output (PQO). They produce more high quality output than their peers over the long term, and that is how they become more effective, better known, more remembered. They aim their attention and consistent efforts toward PQO and minimize any distractions (including opportunities) that would steal them away from their craft” (Burchard, 2017). I could reflect on this for a whole month and see something new, useful and important with this idea. This led me next to civilian astronaut and extreme adventurer, Nik Halik who we featured on an early interview #31[iii] who said: Who doesn't want to “personify excellence” on a daily basis? Who doesn't want to produce more high quality work over the long-term? I'm sure we can all agree that's why we keep studying, learning and looking to build a stronger, more resilient and improved version of ourselves who is truly capable of consistently producing high quality, excellent work. But the late John Wooden, an American College Basketball coach and player said it best. He said: With that thought, I want to welcome you back to a special episode of The Neuroscience Meets Social and Emotional Learning Podcast, where we cover the science-based evidence behind social and emotional learning (for schools) and emotional intelligence training (in the workplace) with tools, ideas and strategies that we can all use immediately, with our brain in mind. I'm Andrea Samadi, an author, and educator with a passion for learning specifically on the topics of health, wellbeing and productivity, and launched this podcast almost 4 years ago, to share how important an understanding of our brain is, for our everyday life and results. For today's episode #279, I want to take a break from our usual Brain Fact Fridays to pause a minute, and reflect back on where we are in this process, and where we are going, after hitting a recent milestone in the podcasting world. As we are approaching our 4th year of the podcast, our 300th episode, (just 19 episodes away) and just hit the 300,000-download marker, I had to step back and take a deep breath to think about what this all means. I know it was Brendon Burchard who talks about the importance of “integrating your wins”[iv] or the important things that happen in your life, and while I remind others to do this all the time, with this milestone, I knew I wasn't doing it myself. I was getting ready to write an episode on resilience, and have 5 interviews lined up in the next couple of weeks. When good things happen to you, Brendon reminds us “be sure you integrate those important moments into your heart and life” because this practice will change your identity. He says this is important for people in pursuit of meaningful goals, who are committed to excellence along the way, and says that he sees it all the time with his high-level clients who are working hard over the years towards a specific goal, who have wins over the years, but maybe not the big win that they've got their eye on. To add meaning and fulfillment to their daily lives, he highly suggests integrating all of the important moments, at the heart level. So off I went to think for a minute about what this recent milestone meant to me. How do I feel about this accomplishment? What have I learned from it? Who helped me to achieve it? While it “felt” cool and a bit mind-boggling to think 4 years later, I'm more passionate than ever about this podcast, but I'm now wondering why. I listened to some other podcast hosts as they reflected back on hitting this milestone themselves, like The EntreMD Podcast[v], with Dr. Una, who shares entrepreneurship strategies for medical doctors. When she hit this milestone, it was right at her 250th episode, (not far from where we are) and this is enough to blow anyone's mind because if you think about it, from the production side of things, it means that she repeated one action, over 200 times, successfully, that led her to hitting the 300K download marker, and helping millions of people along the way. “Wow,” I thought, thinking of Dr. Una's achievement, and then it hit me, “oh wow, that's what we did” and for the first time, I began to integrate this feeling into my heart. Easy to tell others to do this, not as easy to actually do it myself. So for today's EPISODE, as I'm integrating this win into my heart, for a stronger more resilient 2.0 version of myself. Today I'd like to reflect back on how we did this, with the top lessons learned, to see if it can bring some insights into whatever it is you are working on. Just the practice of stopping to integrate a win is a powerful activity to try. How Did We Reach 300K Downloads of the Podcast? After listening to how Dr. Una did this with her EntreMD Podcast, I had to agree that some of her tips were important for us here as well. WHAT STRATEGIES DID WE USE TO HIT THE 300K DOWNLOAD MILESTONE? Know Your Mission: Which is your goal and how you plan to achieve it. If you look back over the 4 years, and our past episodes, you can see that we had a mission of connecting the most current neuroscience research, to those important social and emotional learning skills, to improve productivity, well-being, achievement and results in our schools, sports environments and modern workplaces. This mission is up on my wall, a part of my daily routine to read it and a part of every episode. Many people have emailed me over the years, asking to be a guest on the podcast, and if they didn't align with our mission, and even specifically with the topics we were covering in that season, then they were not a good fit for the podcast. We stuck to this, and never wavered. Know Your Vision with a Clear Why: With your vision, ask yourself, are you living daily towards what you imagine in your mind? I go back here to PART 6[vi] of our Think and Grow Rich book study, where I ended this final episode that I dedicated to my mentor, Bob Proctor, with something he would say about holding your vision daily. He would always say that our mission, or whatever it is that we wanted to achieve in our lifetime would be possible once we believed it to be possible. He would say encourage us to take what we wanted and hold this vision on the screen of our mind. He'd say “What story do you want to tell? What scenes do you want to shoot? How do you want the movie to end? Be the director of your life” and then he would tell us that once we can see something on the screen of our mind, the next step is to take that vision from the dream world, and make that dream a reality. Focus on the Listener: This is an important lesson for anyone creating content, or working with others, as no one will read what you create, or listen to what you might be teaching them, if it doesn't relate to them. It has to be useful for your audience. Instead of just speaking into a mic each week on random topics, we made sure that each episode was written in the HOW-TO format, with clear steps that we can all implement into our life. When I hear back from you that these episodes are helpful, I know that I'm on track with this one. Be Committed to Consistency: This is the one that resonates with me the most. If you want to have results, with whatever it is you are doing, you've got to be consistent. You don't go to the gym on Tuesday and say “that's it” I'm finished, you come up with a schedule that you stick to, and never stray from it. I knew that once people started to tune into the podcast from different parts of the world that it was important that I stayed consistent with releasing episodes. We started with weekly episodes, and got up to 3 in a week when I had the time during the Pandemic. We are now back to weekly episodes, but this is one thing I will never change. I've NEVER missed releasing an episode in a week. It's something I've committed to doing and even while on vacation. I've recorded two episodes in a week, and held one up in draft format, to be released when I need it, so that something is released, even if I'm not in my office at my desk. There was one week I thought I was going to have to break this episode streak. I was starting to lose my voice, so before I lost it completely, I recorded the episode with a shaky voice. The next day my voice was gone completely. I was so glad I'd recorded so I didn't have to mess up this important need for the episodes to be consistent each week. A week went by, and wouldn't you know, my voice came back just in time for me to record the next weekly episode. We are 2000% committed to consistency here. The Podcast is a Give-Back: No Ads Was Intentional. It's been important to me from the beginning, that this podcast launched ads free and remains a tool or resource for people to access without having to think about being “sold” something. There are times ads have snuck in, with different settings I had to block from our hosting side, but I wanted this podcast to be focused on FREE content, without ads. I can't promise this is how it will always be, but as we approach our 4th year, this is the plan moving forward. Never Be Afraid to Share and Promote: When you are a content creator, putting yourself out into the world, sharing and promoting what you create is a part of the process. Each episode was shared on LinkedIn, Twitter, Instagram, YouTube and Facebook. People on the hiking trails know me as a podcaster as I'm not afraid to share that's what keeps me busy in my spare time, when I'm not on the trails, or working. After thinking about these TIPS for those who create content, or for anyone who wants to take their mission seriously, following through on these steps is very difficult. There is no way I could have done this without you, the listener, tuning in, without my husband to take the kids to school when I was still writing in the early morning, or without that mission or vision that's painted clearly in my head of “why” I'm committed to this podcast. Here's where I turn the tables back to you, the listener. I love hearing what you are learning from the episodes, whether it's a comment on YouTube, or on social media, an email, or a direct message somewhere. These messages really do help me. I bet you as listeners didn't know how much this podcast has helped me, personally? Here's the TOP LESSONS I've learned as I reflect back on what 300K downloads means to me. LESSON 1: PRESENTATION WINS: Interviewing/Presenting has become a superpower for me. This was evident during the first 50 episodes when I joke that I couldn't breathe and ask questions at the same time. I can barely watch older interviews for this reason. I noticed after the 50th interview, I started to be less nervous with the guest I was interviewing, as I learned how to breathe and talk at the same time. This skill helps me DAILY with my work, as presentations are a part of my daily life. If you want to improve your speaking or presenting skills, practice is the key! You'll notice, and so will others, that you can speak without fillers (no more ahhs and umms), with a clear and focused message. LESSON 2: LIFE/HEALTH HAS IMPROVED FOR THE BETTER: Of course, as I'm creating these how-to episodes, I'm implementing the ideas into my own life (and those close to me). As I'm writing about the TOP 5 Health Staples and Alzheimer's Prevention Strategies, I'm thinking of what else I can do to improve my health and for my family as well. This is one of the added bonuses of doing this podcast, as I get to speak directly with the high-level guests that we bring on, and learn what they are doing, and how they are doing it. Not a day goes by that I don't take for granted that as I'm representing you, the listener with each topic and episode, it's such a privilege to learn directly from our guests. I do also feel clearer minded from implementing these health, wellness and productivity tips over the past 4 years. LESSON 3: BEING ABLE TO SEE THE SUPERPOWERS IN OTHERS. This just happens as I'm researching and learning about other people's life's work. I'm often blown away with what our guests have accomplished, and I do love sharing this with the world. It's probably the most rewarding part of the podcast. LESSON 4: LEARNED TO SET UP INTERVIEWS QUICKLY/EFFICIENTLY: If you've been a guest on this podcast, you will see how we set up interviews. I know I can improve as there are tools like Calendly.com that make this process easier, but the key is that you want to find a time that works for your guest FIRST. Think always of where the person lives, (East Coast, West Coach, or International) and then set the time up around their schedule. Having clear dates and times where you can conduct interviews, with a clear and stream-lined process helps the guest to feel at ease with coming on your show, and spending their time with you. LESSON 5: LEARNED HOW TO RESEARCH THOROUGHLY: Doing through research on each guest will help you to make connections with their work, and yours. This is the most time-consuming part of the interview process, and I used to spend a lot of time here. To save time, I now ask my guests to outline their books for me, and provide 6-10 questions to guide me in the process. I still research as usual, with their questions as a guide. Then I add something to what they've created so we have a personal spin on what we will be covering. LESSON 6: PRAXIS/ INTEGRATING BELIEFS WITH BEHAVIOR: I've talked about this concept of Praxis on past episodes, or integrating our beliefs with our behavior. I noticed that with time, I could connect our future guests to past guests in an almost magical way where things started to make sense, or come to life more. This is where I noticed I needed a clear mind to make these connections. On days that I was tired, hadn't looked after my health as I should have, making these connections was difficult. The more I began to live the content I was writing, actually integrate these episodes into my own life, the more I could talk about them with each guest. All of these superpowers and strengths have turned me into a stronger, more resilient 2.0 version of myself, which was my goal for this year. REVIEW AND CONCLUSION: So, to review and close out this episode, I want to thank you, the listener, wherever you might be located in the 178 countries who tune into this podcast around the world. It wasn't me who listened to these episodes, I just researched, wrote and recorded them. On today's episode, I shared the 6 STEPS we took on our side to hit this 300K mile mile-marker, hopefully making the podcast more appealing to you, and then the outcome of these strategies were 6 valuable and life-changing lessons that I saw in myself. If I hadn't have stopped to integrate this milestone, I don't think I would have fully seen the powerful lessons that are a byproduct of just doing this podcast, consistently, every week, for the past 4 years. I launched back in June 2019 with the hope to bring credibility to the field of social and emotional learning, while at the same time wanted to connect the research to our daily life and practices, and what I've personally gained from this experience was much more than any amount of money I could have earned in this time frame. These are life-changing lessons that can only happen through praxis, or when our beliefs are integrated into our behavior. If you have learned something from this episode, or if our past episodes have helped you in any way, please reach out to me and let me know. It really does help. And with that, I'll sign out till next week, with our upcoming bunch of interviews. Thank you again for listening, and for making all of these WINS a possibility for me personally. I'm so grateful to have stayed the course, and look forward to what we will all learn with the next 300K downloads, and beyond. See you next week! “You must do what others won't, commit and stay the course.” ― Bob Proctor FOLLOW ANDREA SAMADI: YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/AndreaSamadi Website https://www.achieveit360.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/samadi/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Achieveit360com Neuroscience Meets SEL Facebook Group https://www.facebook.com/groups/2975814899101697 Twitter: https://twitter.com/andreasamadi Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/andreasamadi/ REFERENCES: [i] Bob Proctor's You Were Born Rich Program on Audible https://www.audible.com/pd/You-Were-Born-Rich-Audiobook/B0187M8TDC?source_code=GO1GB547041122911G&gclid=CjwKCAjwzuqgBhAcEiwAdj5dRnVzinjfs1rtrLAe08dyf84QvvPS1xqlKqkJGY_0V1p-T0lrzk31DBoCXh4QAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds [ii] What is Your Prolific Quality Output January 27, 2020 by Sajjad Hussein on Brendon Burchard https://www.sunandesigns.com/roundups/what-is-your-prolific-quality-output/ [iii] Neuroscience Meets Social and Emotional Learning Podcast EPISODE #31 with Civilian Astronaut and Extreme Adventurer Nik Halik on “Overcoming Adversity” https://andreasamadi.podbean.com/e/entrepreneur-civilian-astronaut-and-extreme-adventurer-nik-halik-on-overcoming-adversity-to-create-an-epic-life/ [iv] How to Integrate Your Wins with Brendon Burchard Published in 2022 on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f5OG7s13dPU [v] The EntreMD Podcast https://entremd.com/5-strategies-podcast-downloads/ [vi] https://andreasamadi.podbean.com/e/the-neuroscience-behind-the-15-success-principles-of-napoleon-hill-s-classic-boo-think-and-grow-rich/

Social media has POWER.It has the power to skyrocket your business—even without paid advertising. In fact, I pledged to not use paid ads until EntreMD hit $1 million in revenue just to demonstrate the power of organic marketing through social media.That's the GOOD power of social media.It can be not so good, though, too. It can quickly take control of your day and invade your mental space if you don't set boundaries.I want to give you the top four things you can do to create a healthy boundary around your social media usage.

I am a lifelong learner and always studying something.Most recently it's been the success of the Scale tier of my EntreMD Business School. Scale is the EBS branch for high earners—those seeing multiple six figures and seven figures in revenue. I started to notice themes and commonalities that give away the secrets to their great success. I'm not one to keep these things to myself, so I have to share with you!The first conclusion I came to is that these ultra-successful physician entrepreneurs INVEST UP. They see the value in the investment to become that new person who can do these big things. That doesn't mean it's not scary—I hear their gulps!—but they just *know* the value is going to make up for the fear. It's something they know, trust, welcome. Invest up!These million-dollar entrepreneurs also become comfortable with being uncomfortable. It's not that they don't get uncomfortable—they do! But they get over that fast as they recognize the good that will soon come from it.OK, those are the first two, but I share the other THREE in this newest episode of the EntreMD Podcast, #307: Million-Dollar Physician Entrepreneurs and Their Secrets to Success.// COMMUNITY: EntreMD Private Group on FacebookJoin a group of physicians who have decided to build profitable businesses, so they have the freedom to live life and practice medicine on their terms.https://www.facebook.com/groups/entremd// FOLLOWFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/drunachukwuInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/drunachukwuYouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@DrUnachukwuTikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@dr.unaLinkedIn - www.linkedIn.com/in/druna// WORK WITH MEEntreMD Business School - https://www.entremd.com/business
Birthdays have a way of making us reflect, don't they?But on my birthday last week, I found myself looking AHEAD.Way ahead.I was thinking about what I can be doing now that will get me to where I want to be when I'm 90. It seems so far away, but the things I want for myself take time. I'm talking about things like character, health, and an attitude toward skill development.Playing the long game is having the perspective to do today what matters for the future.

Whether you have plans to sell your business or not, you want to build a sellable business.Why?Because a business that is easy to sell is a business that is desirable to keep. You win either way.But how do you up the sellability of your private practice business?Increase the profit margin.The first way to do this is to optimize your schedule—take a real look at the calendar and make sure you're filling any gaps with appointments. After all, you've already paid overhead, payroll, fixed expenses, etc. so filling those gaps goes straight to the profit margin.It's critical you don't stop playing offense; don't stop your marketing efforts and don't stop reviewing referral bases that can get your gaps filled and your schedule optimized.In today's EntreMD Podcast episode, "3 Ways Private Practices Can Increase Their Profit Margin," I detail that and the two other ways, so tune in for those!// COMMUNITY: EntreMD Private Group on FacebookJoin a group of physicians who have decided to build profitable businesses, so they have the freedom to live life and practice medicine on their terms.https://www.facebook.com/groups/entremd// FOLLOWFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/drunachukwuInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/drunachukwuYouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@DrUnachukwuTikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@dr.una LinkedIn - www.linkedIn.com/in/druna// WORK WITH MEEntreMD Business School - https://www.entremd.com/business

The moment you recognize this is the moment you realize you CAN provide valuable content on a regular schedule—and promote it proudly as your followers grow.And that, in a sentence, is how I achieved 400k podcast downloads in 3 years.In today's EntreMD Podcast episode, "How I Grew My Podcast to 400,000 Downloads in 3 Years," I detail the three components of my successful podcast growth, starting with understanding the difference between a great product and a bestselling product.Tune in to learn the difference and the two other components of a booming podcast.COMMUNITY: EntreMD Private Group on FacebookJoin a group of physicians who have decided to build profitable businesses, so they have the freedom to live life and practice medicine on their terms.https://www.facebook.com/groups/entremdFOLLOWFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/drunachukwuInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/drunachukwuYouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@DrUnachukwuTikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@dr.unaLinkedIn - www.linkedIn.com/in/drunaWORK WITH MEEntreMD Business School - https://www.entremd.com/business
Busy physician entrepreneurs have to make the most of the time they have, and that starts with reframing how they talk about their time.When you tell yourself you can't do this or that because you don't have time, your brain takes that as gospel.So instead, ask yourself HOW you can make it happen.Think of all the time you spend waiting in the car to pick up the kids from school or activities. How can you use that time to work on your business?I bet you could reach out to 5 podcasters in that time to see if you could be on their show. Imagine how that could grow your business!When you say "How can I?," you open this whole new level of possibility, creativity, innovation.That's the first of three time management concepts I go though in this EntreMD Podcast episode.

If you have never thought about building a 7-figure business, I really want to invite you to embrace the idea.And not because of the 7 figures, though the revenue is huge. I'm not even talking about the lives impacted, though that's also huge.The biggest reward of entrepreneurship is who you become in the process.I can guarantee you will LOVE the person you become—the habits you develop, the skills you build, the characteristics you uncover.

What, exactly, was it that took Dr. Cheruba Prabakar to the next level, where her dream of opening a private practice became a reality?Dr. Cheruba put herself in a room of examples.She had to be proactive in finding this room. It's much easier to find the rooms of people who tell you to "be careful" or "that seems like too much work." But once she got there, she got incredible support and inspiration from other forward-thinkers like herself. She got the encouragement and know-how to move toward her goals.And while starting a private practice takes a lot of time and work, Dr. Cheruba says she feels like she took a shortcut by joining the EntreMD Business School. It was there that she leveraged the vast experience of other physicians in the EBS community to discover the tried-and-true methods for opening her dream practice. Her practice is up and running and going strong! And now she's part of the room of examples.

Imagine starting a private practice and being booked full in six weeks. That's the reality for many EntreMD Business School students, one of whom joined me for an interview on this week's EntreMD Podcast.Dr. Tolu Olabintan tells us how she reached that fully booked status AND why she's still reaching.Here's a little spoiler: Her practice now has 4,000 (!) patients, and she's still looking for ways to grow.But why? Does she need to keep growing at this point?Dr. Tolu said it beautifully: "I've seen myself being a better steward of my time, my finances, my resources. I see myself also being more of a blessing to people and also being blessed in return. So my life is richer."And why would you stop if your life and the lives of those you serve get richer when you keep going?!Dr. Tolu gives us a 2-minute rundown on how to see massive growth like she has in the past year and a half in my newest EntreMD podcast episode, "How to create massive growth in your business and life with Dr. Tolu Olabintan."// COMMUNITY: EntreMD Private Group on FacebookJoin a group of physicians who have decided to build profitable businesses, so they have the freedom to live life and practice medicine on their terms.https://www.facebook.com/groups/entremd// FOLLOWFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/drunachukwuInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/drunachukwuYouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@DrUnachukwuTikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@dr.unaLinkedIn - www.linkedIn.com/in/druna// WORK WITH MEEntreMD Business School - https://www.entremd.com/business
The satisfaction of living all comes from that simple understanding of purpose, which, honestly, for so many of us, it is not that simple. Our disorderliness that brings about considerable energy dissipation and waste is directly connected to our not understating and appreciating the purpose question.Live is lived and fulfilled within the walls of purpose, not just any purpose, in my opinion, but the God kind, and it is in the pursuit of Him that we come to appreciate our being on Earth, having that divinely inspired understanding to apply ourselves wisely to our gifting and talents.I am so excited to be discussing the purpose question on the show today with Nneka Unachukwu, M.D.Nneka Unachukwu, M.D. is a #1 Bestselling author of the EntreMD Method, host of the Top 100 podcast, the EntreMD Podcast, and member of the Forbes Business Council.She is a firm believer that physicians have the potential to make the BEST entrepreneurs because they have the work ethic, the unbelievable capacity to learn, the networks, and the funds. The one thing missing is business skills, which is where I come in. She helps doctors learn how to build profitable businesses so they can have the freedom to live life and practice medicine on their terms. She does this in three main ways. 1. The EntreMD podcast.

The right resources will get you going, But the right mindset will get you far. Jason A. Duprat, Entrepreneur, Healthcare Practitioner, and Host of the Healthcare Entrepreneur Academy podcast, sits down with Noha Polack, accomplished board-certified pediatrician and owner of Progressive Pediatrics. From working for a bankrupt business to growing her own, Noha's story is an inspiration for all entrepreneurs. Tune in to learn about the life lessons she'd developed over years of trial and error. 3 KEY POINTS: Build your brand. Hire the right people. Always go beyond when serving clients. EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS: 22 years ago, Noha decided to create her own work environment after experiencing unfavorable working conditions. Marketing was different back then. Noha did face-to-face speaking engagements in childbirth education classes to market herself. Back in 2009. Noha took on a mutual friend's business and grew it significantly. Noha boosted her Social Media presence through YouTube videos and Facebook Live videos. Find a superstar for your front desk with an intelligent, understanding, and eloquent voice. Find physicians who mesh with your mindset so there's consistency in your practice. When hiring people, no one finds the right fit right away. It takes a little trial and error. When hiring, ask them what they want from the job besides money. If money is all they want, that's not the right fit. Post about other things aside from your primary practice. Noha highly recommends listening to the EntreMD Podcast by Dr. Una, as she considers it to be greatly instrumental in her journey. To avoid burnout, remember to take care of your health by taking frequent rests. TWEETABLE QUOTES: “Go one or two steps beyond what others are doing.” – Noha Polack “You can go and make money anywhere, but if you don't enjoy the work, it's unlikely you're going to be good at it or stick to it.” – Noha Polack CONNECT WITH JASON DUPRAT LinkedIn | Facebook | Instagram | Youtube Email: support@jasonduprat.com ABOUT THE GUEST Noha Polack, MD, is an accomplished board-certified pediatrician in Hudson County and proud owner of Progressive Pediatrics.

Simply Worth It: Physician Negotiations with Dr. Linda Street
Every physician is an entrepreneur, even if you're employed. The sooner we lean into this, the closer we get to the kind of contracts that reflect our worth, and make us giddy with excitement. We are our highest appreciating asset, and we simply can't afford not to invest in and advocate for ourselves, even when it feels uncomfortable. Everything we want in our careers already exists, but it's outside of our comfort zones, and when we develop ourselves, we can boldly go after it. How do we equip ourselves with the skills of a CEO and use them to our advantage at the negotiating table? In this episode, the founder of the EntreMD Business School, and author of “The Entre MD Method”, Dr. Una returns to talk about her brand new book, and share more wisdom on how to carry ourselves like Fortune 500 CEOs. Three Things You'll Learn In This Episode - Embracing discomfort is non-negotiable if we want something better Is racing after comfort getting in the way of a great contract that reflects our worth? - The only shortcut to success Is there a way to speed up the learning curve of building our entrepreneurial skills? - Why we have to start acting more like entrepreneurs not employees Medicine is changing rapidly and not often in the favor of physicians. What skills do we need to have in order to survive and even thrive? Guest Bio Dr. Una is an entrepreneur, physician, host of the EntreMD Podcast, founder of the EntreMD Business School, and author of The Entre MD Method.

And what ends up happening is that most of the time, we stay in holiday mode. And sometimes, we tend to forget about the goals we've set or the goals we need to set for the following year.

Simply Worth It: Physician Negotiations with Dr. Linda Street
At the negotiating table, we aren't just physicians - we also have to be entrepreneurs. Even with the most excellent care and clinical skills, we have to be able to articulate the value we provide to the employer. If you want to show up better, sway people to your opinion, and get paid what you're worth - thinking like an entrepreneur is critical - in fact, we can't afford not to in today's healthcare landscape. How you're perceived and how much you can earn is completely up to you, and if you think like the CEO of “You Inc” instead of an employee, you become unstoppable. How do we milk the most out of every opportunity by changing how we see ourselves? Why is sales an essential part of any negotiation? In this episode, I'm joined by an entrepreneur, physician, host of the EntreMD Podcast, and Founder of the EntreMD Business School, Dr. Una. She shares why physicians need to embrace entrepreneurship and how it positions you for success. Three Things You'll Learn In This Episode - The power of doing your homework and uncovering pain points ahead of time If we want people to say yes to us, we have to position ourselves as a solution to their problems. How do we tap into the only frequency they care about? - Why you need to act like the CEO of your own brand Not embracing entrepreneurship isn't just limiting, it's dangerous. Why do we have to start seeing ourselves as business owners, especially right NOW. - What makes people want to pay us what we're worth How do we overwhelm our employers with value so they have no choice to keep us and pay us more? Guest Bio Dr. Una is an entrepreneur, physician, host of the EntreMD Podcast, and Founder of the EntreMD Business School. In the process of building her multi-site pediatric practice, Dr. Una developed a love for entrepreneurship and has since built other thriving businesses as well. Over the years, she has learned that being a doctor and an entrepreneur do not have to be mutually exclusive.
