Profit Growth Cycles: Navigating the Financial Growing Pains of a Cash Practice In this episode, Doc Danny Matta breaks down the financial growing pains every clinic owner faces when scaling from a small subleased space to a full standalone practice. He explains how to manage cash flow, survive low-profit growth cycles, and make smart reinvestments that turn short-term sacrifice into long-term stability. Quick Ask If this episode helps you think differently about your business finances, share it with a fellow PT who's growing their practice—and tag @dannymattaPT so he can reshare! Let's help more clinicians build profitable, sustainable businesses. Episode Summary Profit growth cycles explained: Every clinic hits a point where growth requires reinvestment—usually when moving from a sublease to your own space. Why cash flow matters: Managing money across three core accounts (Operating, Tax, and Profit) keeps your business stable during transitions. Expect profitability dips: Early growth means more expenses—staff, rent, equipment—so it's normal for profit margins to temporarily shrink. Your business is your best investment: Reinvest in your people, your space, and your systems before chasing outside investments. Live lean and ride it out: Reduce personal spending, protect cash, and build reserves to get through your growth phase faster. Lessons & Takeaways Plan for the punch: Growth hurts less when you know it's coming—prepare your finances like you would prepare for a hit. Separate your money: Use simple account systems to stay disciplined and avoid overspending during expansion. Keep your eyes on the next hire: Profitability improves dramatically after you add your second and third full-time providers. Stay lean, not lavish: Skip the vacations and upgrades during your build-out—this season requires focus and restraint. Don't panic when profits dip: It's a temporary phase, not a failure. Every healthy business goes through it. Mindset & Motivation Short-term pain for long-term success: Scaling up means taking a step back before you can leap forward. Be the investor: Treat your clinic like your best-performing stock—reinvest in what's working and let compounding do the rest. Know your game: Not everyone needs to build a seven-figure empire. Define success, grow strategically, and enjoy the process. Pro Tips for Clinic Owners Track your accounts weekly: Review your Operating, Tax, and Profit accounts to maintain awareness and control. Build 3–6 months of reserves: Cash on hand allows for smarter decisions and less emotional reaction during slow periods. Focus on utilization: Aim to fill two to three full-time providers quickly to stabilize profitability post-growth. Keep learning business fundamentals: Clinical skill alone won't scale a company—you must master marketing, hiring, and leadership. Notable Quotes "Your business is your best investment—stop treating it like a side hustle." "When growth hits, your profit account might hit zero—and that's normal." "Being a great clinician is not enough. You need to be a great business owner, too." Action Items Set up or review your three core accounts: Operating, Tax, and Profit. Map out your next growth cycle and identify upcoming expenses before they hit. Audit your monthly personal spending and cut what's unnecessary for 6–12 months. Calculate how many full-time providers your space can sustain and plan to reach that headcount.

In this episode, Brian Miller and Chad Hall unpack one of the most practical frameworks for growing a coaching practice — drawn from Acts 1:8 and the idea of starting in "Jerusalem" (the people who already know, like, and trust you) before moving outward to "Judea," "Samaria," and "the ends of the earth." Through stories, examples, and coaching wisdom, they explore why so many coaches try to start in Samaria — with websites and strangers — instead of the relationships that already surround them. The conversation blends biblical insight with business strategy, helping listeners reframe how they think about client development and confidence building. Key Highlights The "Jerusalem–Judea–Samaria–Ends of the Earth" model provides a spiritual and strategic roadmap for building a coaching practice. Many new coaches mistakenly try to market to strangers (Samaria) instead of starting with those who already know and trust them (Jerusalem). Confidence grows naturally when you start with low-hanging fruit — people ready and willing to engage — rather than high-hanging, resistant prospects. A handful of "champions" in your life want you to succeed and are eager to open doors, but you have to be willing to ask for help. Building a network takes time and humility — and knowing where you're starting is essential to making sustainable progress. Takeaways Start in your Jerusalem. Focus first on people who already know, like, and trust you. These are the relationships most ready to bear fruit. Ask for help. Don't rob your champions of the blessing of supporting you. They want to help — and connecting you is often their joy. Build confidence through success. Each small win strengthens your confidence and credibility, preparing you for larger opportunities. Be clear and courageous. Tell people you're getting started and invite them to partner with you — at least one will likely say yes. Expand outward intentionally. As your network and experience grow, let your influence move naturally from Jerusalem to Judea to Samaria, rather than leaping ahead.

Want to become a go-to name in your niche without chasing likes or followers? In this episode, Jason reveals a seven-step formula for turning yourself into a micro celebrity—someone who attracts perfect-fit clients by building real trust and authority within a small, loyal community. It's not about vanity metrics or viral fame; it's about nailing your message, showing up consistently, telling relatable stories, and leveraging other people's platforms to build credibility. With the right strategy and consistency, you can grow your influence, monetize your expertise, and create a thriving business fueled by true fans—not fleeting attention.   "Don't think you need to have a freaking crazy story—your most ordinary stories are the most extraordinary because they relate with people."   What you'll learn from this episode: Becoming a micro celebrity means getting the right attention from a small, loyal audience—not chasing vanity metrics. Nail your core message by clearly articulating your audience's problems and offering a unique solution. Show up consistently and publicly through both short-form and long-form content to build visibility and trust. Focus on tribe building—create community, use shared language, and engage deeply with your audience. Use storytelling and relatability to connect emotionally and stand out from generic information online. Leverage other people's platforms (podcasts, media, collaborations) to expand reach and establish authority.   Connect with Jason Meland: Email: jason@goliveonlinemastermind.com Website: https://www.growmyvisibility.com/ Instagram: @coachjasonmeland Facebook: Jason Meland - In Demand Coach LinkedIn: Jason Meland

Episode Summary: Michelle Bennett1. Best Coaching Advice Received“Make the implicit explicit.” Pause the moment and name what's not being said.“When the student is ready, the teacher appears.” Use client frustration to invite reflection and reframe.Moments of tension are often invitations for deeper understanding, not obstacles.Great coaching is about holding space and gently guiding insight—not forcing it.Key insight: Learn to stop, notice, and ask “what's really going on here?” 2. Still Improving in CoachingMain focus: Working on herself to grow as a coach.Strives for congruence between values, beliefs, and behavior.Wants to respond vs. react—particularly when under stress or lacking sleep.Practices pausing and reflection, using “Stop, Breathe, Think, Act” (from SCUBA training).Committed to maintaining presence and awareness, even during challenging moments. 3. Most Outrageous Coaching MoveDoesn't see herself as “outrageous,” but has grown more flexible with time.Used to strictly follow coaching rules—now plays creatively within the guardrails.Embraces applied improvisation (Yes, and…) in team workshops.Developed an improv-based exercise progressing from “No, but” → “Yes, but” → “Yes, and.”Integrates play and embodiment to help teams move from resistance to collaboration. 4. What Still Makes Her UncomfortableSilence. Used to feel awkward and overthink during pauses.Now more comfortable—relies on observation (e.g., body language) to determine when to re-engage.Learned silence can be powerful and productive, especially when used intentionally.Coaches herself to avoid jumping in too quickly.Uses curiosity and visual cues to guide next steps. 5. Advice for New CoachesStudy nonviolent communication (Marshall Rosenberg).Focus on unmet needs as the root of emotional responses.Ask: “What need, if fulfilled, would change how you feel right now?”Helps clients slow down, reflect, and better understand their own emotions.Recognizes empathy as a foundational tool—both for self-awareness and coaching impact. 6. Challenge Conquered on the Path to CoachingHad to dial down her task-focused, checklist-driven scientist brain.Used to skip over small talk—now intentionally builds relationships.Has trained herself to add warmth and connection to communication.Sees this shift as authentic personal growth, not just behavioral adjustment.Believes her relationship side is now integrated—not just “an add-on.” 7. Using AI in CoachingExploring how AI can assist in workshop design and experiential learning.Uses prompts to help create exercises that illustrate coaching principles (e.g., ladder of inference).Finds AI helpful but still in early experimentation phase.Appreciates others' creativity with AI and is learning through observation.Believes AI will help her expand her impact beyond her current reach. 8. What She's Learned About Herself Through CoachingShe's been living to meet others' expectations—and is now learning who she truly is.Coaching has helped her drop the masks and embrace her authentic self.Less afraid to experiment, take risks, and “just try stuff.”Feels like she's in a stage where everything is starting to click.Embracing “not knowing” and trusting her voice—hallmarks of personal transformation.

A 13-year Australian study has just dropped — and its findings are shaking the medical world. Children on ADHD medication reported lower quality of life than those who weren’t medicated. In this eye-opening episode, Justin unpacks why the “gold standard” research behind ADHD treatment might have been flawed all along — and what this means for families trying to do what’s best for their kids. This one might make you rethink everything you’ve been told. KEY POINTS The shocking new Deakin University study on ADHD medication and child wellbeing. Why “the gold standard” MTA study may have misled the world for decades. How peer review can fail — and how Big Pharma shapes the story. What long-term follow-ups reveal about medication outcomes. Why your child isn’t the problem — and what really needs to change instead. QUOTE OF THE EPISODE “Your child doesn’t have a problem. Thinking your child is the problem is often the bigger problem.” RESOURCES MENTIONED MTA Study (Multimodal Treatment of ADHD) and 3-year follow-up research. Deakin University longitudinal study on ADHD medication and quality of life. The Parenting Revolution by Dr Justin Coulson. Parenting ADHD [The Course] + Course FAQs [Article] Help for the Parent with ADHD ACTION STEPS FOR PARENTS Don’t make changes overnight — start by reading the linked studies. Talk to your child’s GP, psychologist, or psychiatrist about alternative supports. Focus on your child’s environment, not just their behaviour. Trust your gut — if something doesn’t feel right, it’s worth exploring. Remember: grace for your child, yourself, and your professionals. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

With over 40 years of managing some of the top names in wine (Opus One, Mondavi, Baron Philippe de Rothschild), David Pearson, President of Joseph Phelps, has developed a distinct point of view on how to build a globally iconic brand. Ultimately, it comes down to relationships and the effort required to maintain them. From focus and prioritization to spending upwards of 65% of time on the road, David hopes more wineries will follow in his footsteps to build the category of Napa and American wines globally. Detailed Show Notes: David's background: started as a winemaker (Europe, SoCal), sensory evaluation for Hublein (now Diageo), post-MBA marketing job with Baron Philippe de Rothschild, Mondavi in France (see Mondovino movie), managed Byron, then CEO of Opus One, now President of Joseph PhelpsThe goal is to create personal relationships and care about mutual success and partnership with accounts“Focus is the hard part” - at Opus, initially London, Hong Kong, Japan; then emerging markets, Mainland China, Dubai; Phelps also prioritized KoreaSingapore distributor told him, “We'll see you in 5 years, the French come every year.”Track people who buy wine and meet w/ them - 80/20 rule, focus on the top 20% of trade accountsAfter the top 20%, do second tier of accounts, then collectorsTravelled ~65% at Opus OneBudgets ~20-30% of marketing expenses for building relationshipsOpus One 1st 10 years - went to Asia, Canada, Europe every year, then put someone in Tokyo and Hong KongSends ~400-500 handwritten holiday cards to partners with specifics about their last visitTravel team includes a winemaker if they like it and are good at communicating, and a marketing team to better understand the marketPlease don't make it feel anonymous, but give the meetings and message personalityAt Phelps, focused on Insignia and current vintage, show older wines to show aging potentialThe goal is to expand export to ~30-40% in 10 years vs. 12-13% of Insignia todayBrands need to think deeper about what's unique and also where they are goingGet alignment between the story, the wine in the market, and where you're goingThe winery owner had three objections to export: sell all the wine to US customers, don't want to take any away from them don't know who to sell to don't want to spend the time and money to go thereLarger volume wines have different commercial relationships, same elements (knowing your partners, need to build), but margins tend to get squeezedBelieves that if the category is successful (e.g., Napa), everyone will be more successfulNegociants (La Place) respond to existing market demand well and are efficient distributors, but it is not in their DNA to build brandsPhelps uses the LVMH distribution network to build the brand and deliver directly to the core accountsMeasures quality of relationships w/ initial feeling, but then seeing the wines go to the market, need to see forward momentumTracks Liv-ex pricing a lot, seen upticks in InsigniaOther marketing elements: relationships happen over multiple channels now, need to do more social media, and be part of the discussionThe pricing goal is to have trade and consumer connect the innate value of the wine to the priceThe current neo-prohibitionist environment recalls the 80s and the “Mondavi defense” of wine as a potential solution Hosted on Acast.

Infused with the relaxing quality of nature and the sound-masking properties of white noise, listening to running water is an ideal way to turn off all the stressful things life brings, and to de-stress. Some of our most popular sounds include a river, flowing creek, babbling brook, gentle waves on a lake, and a bamboo fountain. Rain also creates a natural white noise. Infused with the relaxing quality of nature and the sound-masking properties of white noise, listening to rain is an ideal way to switch off all the stressful things life brings and to de-stress. Some of our most popular sounds are rain on an umbrella, hailstorms, hard rain, soft rain, gentle rain, wind and rain, rain on a car.White noise helps babies and children to get a better and deeper night's sleep. This is because external sounds are masked by the noise. With white noise in the background, your child will not hear annoying cars driving by or dogs barking in bed. This allows your little one to sleep better. And it also saves you as a parent a lot of hours!Pink noise is more common in nature than you might expect. It can be compared to continuous rainfall or wind. In addition to white noise, pink noise is also increasing in popularity, especially in business environments. Because it can increase productivity, concentration and creativity.Brown noise can be compared to waves of the sea, a river current, strong winds or the sound of thunder during a storm. Like pink noise, brown noise is very similar to white noise. However, the frequencies have been lowered even further and a lot more concentrated. This gives it a rougher/coarse tone than pink noise. It sounds a bit deeper and a bit bass-like. The benefits of brown noise are the same as the other types of noise. It provides relaxation, increased focus and improved deep sleep.DISCLAIMER: Be aware that loud noises can damage your hearing.

The right song doesn't just fill a room—it changes the air. We lined up five October releases that transform a quiet evening into a moving story, from a sidewalk chant to a late‑night sway and a runway‑sharp finale. It's a ride through J‑pop, K‑pop, R&B, and house where every track owns its moment and then hands the energy to the next.We kick off with BananaLemon's We Outside!, a clean, synth‑bright anthem designed to get you out the door and into the crowd. Then BM's Freak featuring B.I. turns the lights down without losing the heat: whistles, rim hits, and a slow dancehall lean build a sultry pulse while BM's grit and B.I.'s lift play off each other like sparks meeting fuel. Psychic Fever's SWISH DAT barrels in with bass and swagger, lacing hip‑hop power with flute textures that nod to its Mask Ninja Akagage theme—proof you can blend traditional color with a modern stomp and make it sound inevitable.When it's time to breathe, REIKO's Maybe slides in—chill house with R&B phrasing, minimalist drums, and an intimate vocal that feels close enough to touch. The lyric tilt toward “live now, worry later” lands softly but sticks. And to close, Hearts2Hearts' Focus hits that retro‑house piano riff you swear you've heard on a catwalk somewhere, lined with disco strings and a heartbeat bass. The hook rides on confidence, not sugar, with harmonies that snap the whole mix into a glossy, high‑fashion stride.We also talk sequencing—how these five songs create a seamless night‑out arc—and why headphones reveal the hidden layers. Queue it up, move with it, and then tell us what grabbed you first.BananaLemon: Instagram X YouTube We Outside!BM: Instagram X Youtube Freak (feat B.I.)PSYCHIC FEVER: Instagram X YouTube SWISH DATREIKO: Instagram X YouTube maybeHearts2Hearts: Instagram X YouTube FOCUSSupport the showPlease help Music Elixir by rating, reviewing, and sharing the episode.

Listen to today's podcast... Our minds can not operate on ‘full throttle' all day long. Focus meditation helps to clear the mind of racing, cluttered thoughts by focusing our energies on a particular image or thought. Gradually distracting thoughts will decrease during meditation. This strategy helps to restore mental balance by providing a break in our hectic day. By allowing our mind to slow down it is better able to focus when we return to the task at hand. Take One Action Today To Build Your #Resiliency!      Here are today's Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating National Stress Awareness Day: All that is needed is a quiet environment, a comfortable position, a mental image or positive thought in which to focus on, and an attitude that will permit relaxation to happen. Meditating or focusing on music or a relaxing video can give the mind a needed break from stressful events such as conflict, problem-solving, and high energy output. Guided imagery is a visualization technique, that goes one step further than mediation, by actually engaging the senses within the body to deliver a variety of messages. It can be used to reduce blood pressure, lower cholesterol, reduce muscle tension, and increase energy. Your body responds to these positive images in the same way it would, if the image was ‘real'. There is no way we can not get rid of all of our stress, nor do we want to. What we want to do is to reduce our negative reactions to stress so that we don't become sick, worn down, and worn out. Start by adding one relaxation technique to your daily checklist of things to do. Looking for more tips to build your resiliency?

In this episode, I dive deep into protein supplements—how to avoid crappy products loaded with questionable ingredients, and how to read labels like a pro. We break down how whey protein is made, why it’s the most potent and bioavailable protein powder, and why it’s far superior to plant-based sources. I also tackle the myths around protein timing and protein bars: you don’t need protein on the go—the goal is adequate protein intake averaged over time, about one gram per pound of ideal body weight. Protein is the foundation for muscle, organ health, and overall performance, while carbs and fats serve mainly as energy. I compare B.rad Whey Protein Isolate + Creatine Superfuel to a competitor product loaded with processed additives, artificial sweeteners, and flavor chemicals. I explain the difference between whey protein concentrate, isolate, milk protein isolate, casein, and egg white protein—covering digestibility, nutrient density, and potential digestive issues. We also discuss why a few grams of natural sugar in protein is better than chemically intense sweeteners for performance and recovery. Finally, I share my approach to sourcing animal-based proteins—pasture-raised eggs, ground beef, and affordable grass-fed steaks—and why combining these with a clean, high-quality whey protein powder gives you the building blocks for health, muscle, and longevity. If you want to navigate the supplement world safely, skip the junk, and prioritize truly effective protein, this episode is for you. TIMESTAMPS: We are looking at the good and bad of supplementation. [01:10] We don't need protein on the go. We need to average an adequate amount of protein intake over the long term. [02:18] Over the years, we have learned that one gram of protein per pound of ideal body weight is recommended. [05:20] When you think about the protein bars that are on the market, realize that there is a large amount of processing involved in making them. [09:50] Learn to read labels and know what they mean. [15:22] Sunflower lecithin is a natural fat used as an emulsifier in protein powders. [16:25] Compare other protein powders that have been processed. [17:18] What is whey and how is it made? [19:34] The term milk protein isolate lets you know you can consume it even if you have lactose problems. It depends on how lactose intolerant you are.

In this episode of The Intelligent Vocalist, John shares three simple but powerful questions that can completely shift how you approach your singing practice. He explains how taking time to reflect on what you're doing, when you're doing it, and how you're doing it keeps your growth intentional and rewarding. These questions are a guide to staying focused, motivated, and connected to your vocal journey.   Episode highlights: You can't plan your practice until you know what you want to improve.
