If you want 2026 to feel different, your systems have to change — not your personality, not your caffeine intake. In this episode, I'm walking you through the practice systems that actually save time, reduce chaos, and keep you out of that constant “I'll fix it later” mode.I break down what a system really is, why most private practice owners don't realize what's broken, and how overwhelm usually shows up right when your practice starts growing. Whether you're brand new or already busy, this episode helps you build a foundation that can scale without burning you out.We focus on the three core systems every practice needs from day one: how potential clients become real clients, how you communicate in a way that's ethical and sustainable, and how money moves through your business without stress or confusion.In this episode, I cover:How to design a “potential client to client” system that reduces friction and increases show-upsWhy your communication system has to be HIPAA-compliant and fit your nervous systemHow to build a money exchange system before your first client ever walks inThe difference between “shiny” marketing and “sticky” systems that actually convertIf your practice feels reactive, scattered, or harder than it needs to be, this episode will help you rebuild your systems so your business can support you, not drain you.If you want ongoing CE credit, leadership support, and real-world training you can actually apply, the Step It Up Membership is where this work deepens over time. Get your step by step guide to private practice. Because you are too important to lose to not knowing the rules, going broke, burning out, and giving up. #counselorsdontquit.

Jenny Bristow and Vice President of Data & Technology Mark Brandes of Hedy & Hopp discuss their proprietary solution, Epic UTM Connect*, developed to help healthcare marketers bridge the long-standing data gap between digital marketing campaigns and patient acquisition and revenue within their Electronic Health Record (EHR) system. They explain the challenges of achieving true marketing ROI in a privacy-forward world and detail how this one-time project allows for patient-level attribution and improved performance measurement.Episode notes:The Data Disconnect: Hedy & Hopp created Epic UTM Connect to help healthcare marketers overcome the persistent struggle to access and show true business impact data (patient appointments, revenue) versus engagement metrics marketers can break down by UTM parameters.What Epic UTM Connect Is: A tool that captures UTM parameters from digital campaigns, packages them, and securely inserts them into the Epic patient record.Achieving True ROI: The ability to track a patient's journey from a marketing touchpoint all the way through appointment and fulfillment to calculate the return on investment (ROI).Easy & Fast Implementation: The tool is fast and lightweight to implement and doesn't require Hedy & Hopp to gain analyst access to Epic. Implementation only requires access to website analytics and the CMS.Technology & Compliance: The solution is HIPAA compliant and secure, leveraging the healthcare organization's existing Business Associate Agreement (BAA) with Epic. It works with any web analytics platform (Google Analytics, Adobe Analytics, Site Improve, etc.) by pulling data directly from the website.Use Case Requirements: The solution's effectiveness is dependent on the organization having a consistent and well-defined UTM parameter strategy in place.Attribution Limitations: The tool primarily provides last-touch attribution, meaning it will not capture the source of every conversion and will show gaps in the full multi-touch patient journey.Standalone Value: Epic UTM Connect is a standalone, one-time implementation that is valuable for improving visibility and does not require healthcare marketing teams to use other Epic marketing tools.Learn more about Hedy & Hopp's Epic capabilities: https://hedyandhopp.com/our-expertise/epic-for-healthcare-marketing/ Contact Hedy & Hopp to chat with us about how Epic UTM Connect can support your marketing efforts: https://hedyandhopp.com/connect-with-us/ Connect with Jenny:Email: jenny@hedyandhopp.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jennybristow/Connect with Mark:Email: mark.brandes@hedyandhopp.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/markbrandes/ If you enjoyed this episode, we'd love to hear your feedback!

Okay. This show today is part of our Relentless Health Value "The Inches Are All Around Us" series. This Inches Talk is a metaphor for finding all those little places where there is healthcare waste as a first step in an effort to excise all these little pockets of waste. For a full transcript of this episode, click here. If you enjoy this podcast, be sure to subscribe to the free weekly newsletter to be a member of the Relentless Tribe. Shane Cerone said this phrase during episode 492, and I loved it because there are inches all around us for sure. And the thing with all these inches that we're gonna talk about today and last week and next week and the week after that, yeah, these are inches that actually you could cut them. And there are millions and billions of dollars, and you actually improve patient care. You improve clinical team experience. Also, you're cutting out friction and making it easier to do the right thing to care for patients. These are no-brainer kinds of stuff if your North Star is better and more affordable patient care, but they are also somebody else's bread and butter in a "one person's cost is another person's revenue" kind of way. So, yeah … what makes perfect common sense might not be as easy as it might look on paper, as we all know so well. So, last week we dug into all of the inches of expensive friction that develop when stakeholders interact—like, a clinical organization and a payer and a plan sponsor, self-insured employer. They try to get paid or pay. They try to direct contract because what will be found fast enough is that the data is not the data is not the data, as Mark Newman talked about last week (EP496); and a dollar is not a dollar is not a dollar. Again, you'll find this out fast enough. All of you know when you talk to entities up and down the patient journey or across the life of a claim, otherwise known as a healthcare transaction. It's mayhem to get a claim paid often enough. Each stakeholder comes in with their own priorities and views and accounting methods and various rollups. I like how Stephanie Hartline put it. She wrote, "Healthcare … moves through many hands without a rail that preserves truth along the way. Attribution breaks, and truth gets reassembled later. The difference isn't capability—it's infrastructure. Line-item billing ≠ line-item settlement." Or I also like how Chris Erwin put it. He wrote, "When the blueprint isn't standardized, you aren't scaling. You're just compounding chaos." And yeah, then all of a sudden when there's no through line, there's no rail that connects all the data to the data to the data, or all the dollars to the dollars to the dollars. Suddenly 30% of any given healthcare transaction goes to trying to straighten it all back out again—to reassemble it, as Stephanie said. It's like unleashing 100 chaos monkeys and then having to pay to recapture them all. Listen to the show with David Scheinker, PhD (EP363) from last year about "Hey, how about we all just use the same template and avoid a lot of this." Or read Zeke Emanuel's book about how the USA should potentially consider copying the Netherlands model because they have private insurance. But they cut admin costs 75% or something like that. Oh, right … through standardization. Jesse Hendon summarized this the other day. He wrote, "Providers don't need armies of coders to fight 50 different insurance rule books [when you have some standardization here]." I say all this to say after recording the episode with Mark Newman from last week, I have become intently fascinated by what goes on in this non-standardized or otherwise friction points between stakeholders. There are a lot of inches in this gray area land of confusion.   This show today digs into one of them, which is what does it take to process a claim? Just technically. What are the pipes involved to submit a claim and, again, get paid for it, which is a healthcare transaction—just simply the technology moving the data around—even if everything in the pipes is a non-standardized hot mess. Because just fixing up the processing and the pipes here—again, while this doesn't solve the entire data isn't a data isn't a data or a dollar isn't a dollar isn't a dollar problem—if we can just cut out some of the processing and the moving the data around costs, just this all by itself is $6 billion a year worth of inches. Plus, as an added bonus, fix up the pipes for better data flow and now patient care can be faster if, for example, the prior auth or etc. processes transpire faster. And clearinghouses have entered the chat. But you know, when clearinghouses come up, at least in my world, when the clearinghouse word gets dropped, it's usually accompanied by like a puff of smoke because no one is quite sure what those guys do all day. So, we all sort of look at each other in the conversation and move on. Lucky for me and possibly you if I've managed to suck you into my web of intrigue, I ran into Zack Kanter from Stedi, a new clearinghouse, who agreed to come on the pod here and aid my exploration into this demarcation zone between stakeholders. So, let's start here. What is a clearinghouse? Well, a clearinghouse is the same thing as a switch when we're talking about pharmacy data transfers, if you're familiar with that terminology and that's helpful. But either way, in the conversation with Zack Kanter that follows, Zack will explain this better; but clearinghouses are like a hub, maybe, that connects all the payers with all the providers. So, if you want an eligibility check or you wanna submit a claim or do a prior auth of the payer, whatever you're trying to do, get paid, you as an EHR system or a doctor's office or an RCM (revenue cycle management) company, you don't have to set up your own personal data connection with every single payer out there. You don't have to go through all the authentications and the BAAs (Business Associate Agreements) and map all the fields and set up the 100 SOC 2–compliant APIs (application programming interfaces). Instead, you can hook up to one clearinghouse, and then that clearinghouse connects with everybody else. So, most medical claims transactions have a clearinghouse in the middle, like an old-timey telephone operator routing your claim or denial or approval of that claim or eligibility check or whatever to the right place. And unfortunately, old-timey telephone operator is a pretty apt metaphor, depending on which clearinghouse you're using. Anyway, Zack Kanter told me that the price to just send and receive an electronic little piece of data in healthcare through a clearinghouse costs about 1,000 times more than any other industry would pay. Like, if you do an eligibility check, that's gonna cost 10 to 15 cents per. The trucking industry pays that much for 1,000 such data transfers. They would riot if someone asked them to spend a dollar for 10 data transfers. That'd be ridiculous in their eyes. But in healthcare, all these dimes add up to, again, $6 billion a year—them's some inches there—which also equal delays in payment and patient care. Now you might be thinking, "Oh, well, maybe it costs this much because healthcare is so much more complicated than trucking or whatever." Well, turns out the opposite is true: Because of HIPAA, ironically enough, healthcare is, in fact, much more standardized (we were talking about standardization before); but healthcare is actually much more standardized than many other industries due to HIPAA's administrative simplification rules, which mandate a universal language for transactions—the pipes I'm talking about now. So, actually, for as much as I was just kvetching about chaos monkeys, compared to other industries, the baseline construct here is actually much more orderly than, for example, the trucking industry or whatever, like Amazon or Walmart has to deal with with their millions of vendors. Now—and here's a really big point, especially for self-insured employers—you know who the main customer is for a lot of the more programmatic, the newer kinds of clearinghouses? I'll tell you: newer digital entities who do RCM (revenue cycle management) for provider organizations, and that can be great if you're a practice just trying to keep up with payer denials and expedite patient care. But look, all you plan sponsors and self-assured employers and maybe unions out there, the more RCM purveyors start working with programmatic clearinghouses, the more you not doing programmatic prepayment integrity programs with unconflicted third-party prepayment integrity vendors who are as hooked into the data streams and the clearinghouses as the RCM vendors are, the more, as I said last week, increasingly you're bringing an ever more rusty knife to a gunfight. So, that is certainly something to consider. There's a whole episode next week about this with Mark Noel from ClaimInsight. Or if you just can't wait, go back and listen to the show with Kimberly Carleson (EP480) just for the gist of it, or the one with Dawn Cornelis (EP285) from a few years ago. They're talking post-payment integrity programs, but a lot of the same rules apply. The show today is sponsored by Aventria Health Group, as usual. But I do want to say that we got some very appreciated financial support from Stedi, the only programmable healthcare clearinghouse. And here is my conversation about all of the inches that are all around us, specifically in the healthcare data pipes, with Zack Kanter, who is the CEO and founder over at Stedi.

professorjrod@gmail.comIn this episode of Technology Tap: CompTIA Study Guide, we delve into the critical role of security governance in building secure organizations. Learn how governance frameworks—comprising policies, standards, procedures, and playbooks—transform strategic intent into consistent, auditable actions that both teams and auditors rely on. Whether you're preparing for your CompTIA exam or aiming to develop essential IT skills, understanding these governance principles is key to effective tech exam prep and technology education. Join us as we break down complex concepts in an easy-to-understand way, helping you succeed in your IT certification journey and beyond.We start with clear definitions that make exam questions and real-world decisions easier. Policies set high-level rules and expectations. Standards add measurable technical requirements like encryption strength and logging baselines. Procedures translate both into step-by-step action, and playbooks coordinate who does what, in what order, using which tools. Along the way, we compare external frameworks such as ISO 27001, NIST 800, PCI DSS, and FIPS with internal standards that tailor controls to your environment.Privacy law isn't a side quest; it shapes everything. We demystify GDPR, CCPA, FERPA, HIPAA, and COPPA, and clarify roles that exams love to test: the data owner who sets classification and usage, the data controller who defines purpose and lawful basis, the data processor who acts for the controller, and the data custodian who protects and maintains data without deciding how it's used. You'll learn practical cues to spot each role fast and avoid common pitfalls.Finally, we dig into change management as a risk control function. Its goal is to minimize risk while implementing changes, with impact analysis, approvals, testing, and rollback plans. Automation and orchestration can speed response and reduce error, but only when guided by policy and enforced by standards. Expect memorable exam tips, grounded examples, and a framework you can use right away on the job.If this helped sharpen your Security+ prep or your day-to-day practice, subscribe, share the show with a colleague, and leave a quick review.

Today's episode is a little different, in a really wonderful way. I sit down with Dick Schwartz and Jeanne Catanzaro, President and Vice President of the IFS Institute, and partners in both leadership and life. This isn't a traditional interview; it's more like listening in on friends and colleagues talking about the things they care about, the serious, the personal, and the very human. I've been feeling curious about what's happening inside IFS leadership right now. The model keeps growing, reaching more people, and carrying more responsibility with it. I wanted to hear directly from Dick and Jeanne about what that growth and momentum have been like for them, not just in terms of roles and plans, but personally and as partners. In this candid conversation, we explore questions many of you have been holding. What happens as the Institute grows? Is Dick going to retire? What does transition even look like? We talk about all of that, but in a funny, sometimes ridiculous, and very real way. What I hope you hear is the care, thoughtfulness, and humanity behind the scenes of both the IFS Institute and the IFS model. We talk about: Jeanne stepping into leadership and visibility over time What it means to steward a model that's bigger than any one person Succession, responsibility, and caring for the future of IFS Collaboration and "sharing the stage" Knowing when to take a break from "parts talk" Bringing IFS beyond the therapy room and into the wider world Holding research, spirituality, and accessibility at the same time Finding balance between work, partnership, family, and rest Favorite shows, hobbies, and Firefighter behaviors There's a lot of warmth here, some laughter, a little potty talk, and plenty of insight.

New episode out now! We watched the season one episode of Diagnosis Murder titled “Shanda's Song”. We delve into the charm of Dick Van Dyke and believe his casting likely led to the eventual success and longevity of the show, talk about Dr. Sloan's shaky authority in speaking to suspects and investigating crimes, really get into the ‘90s hairstyles and fashion choices, and believe these characters are taking wild leaps of logic. We revisit the notion that none of these clues from non-law enforcement investigators would be admissible in court and they luck out with confessions every time. We also discuss the changes in television over the last few decades, from how shows are piloted or spun off to where they are shot and how much time is given to the theme songs. Katy does not want to hear sports, Carrie feels safe and comfortable with Columbo, Maddy will not investigate crimes, and Mack shares mustache secrets. We also get into lip syncing scandals, are accidentally sexist, think culture may be dying all around, and learn when HIPAA became law. Listen to hear more about misplaced fart sounds, anthropomorphic dinosaurs, 9-1-1, Edith Head, Home Alone 3, and notorious Ken dolls. TW: Suicide, stalkingSHOW NOTES:2018 Sawbones episode about the injuries the Wet Bandits would have accrued medically in Home Alone can be found here. The Anastasia musical moment Mack talks about can be seen on YouTube here. Rob Lowe talking about it being cheaper to film in Ireland here

Send us a textIn this quick tip episode of The Private Practice Survival Guide, Brandon breaks down the real reason most private practices fail a HIPAA compliance audit: they don't realize how easily PHI can be exposed—often in ways that can be interpreted as gross negligence. From front-desk conversations and sign-in sheets to visible computer screens, unsecured paper charts, and unencrypted communication, Brandon explains how common “everyday” workflows create preventable compliance risk.You'll learn the most frequent audit failures: missing Business Associate Agreements (BAAs) (including the often-missed process for tools like Google Workspace), inadequate staff training, weak access controls, lack of annual security risk assessments, outdated policies, poor physical safeguards, improper disposal practices, and delayed breach identification. Brandon also outlines practical fixes: annual HIPAA training with documentation, role-based access, MFA, encryption standards for PHI at rest and in transit, vendor BAA tracking, secure texting/communication evaluation, and stronger physical privacy measures.If you run or operate a private practice, this episode is a direct checklist for reducing audit exposure, protecting patient trust, and building compliance into daily operations—so your practice can thrive, not just survive.Welcome to Private Practice Survival Guide Podcast hosted by Brandon Seigel!

Most parents focus on car seats and cribs, but the real safety net is legal: who can act for you in a crisis, who raises your kids if the unthinkable happens, and how your savings and life insurance actually support your family's future. We dig into the essential steps every new parent in North Carolina should take, from naming guardians in a will to creating trusts that protect minors from windfalls and missteps.We start with the basics of incapacity planning—why marriage alone doesn't grant authority over real estate, retirement accounts, or medical decisions—and how durable financial powers of attorney, health care proxies, HIPAA releases, and advance directives keep life moving when you can't. Then we unpack intestacy rules that may divert assets to parents instead of your spouse, and how a simple will puts your wishes first. The heart of the conversation centers on minor children: choosing the right guardian, setting clear priorities in the will, and coordinating that choice with the person who will manage the money.From there, we explore how to design trusts that match real life. Rather than dropping a lump sum at eighteen, structure distributions for health, education, maintenance, and support; stagger access over time; and give your trustee the discretion to pause or accelerate funds based on maturity. We share practical incentive ideas—proof of employment, vocational or college progress, sobriety requirements, or military service—that align money with meaningful milestones. Along the way, we highlight common pitfalls with beneficiary designations and offer guidance on picking fiduciaries who blend heart and expertise.If you're expecting or recently welcomed a child, this conversation helps you turn love into a concrete plan that protects your spouse, centers your kids, and preserves your values. Subscribe for more clear, practical guidance on estate planning and elder law, share this with a friend who needs it, and leave a review to tell us what topics you want next.

Send us a textHIPAA compliance can feel like a moving target for private practice owners—but most violations don't come from “bad intent.” They come from gaps in training, inconsistent workflows, and unsecured handling of Protected Health Information (PHI). Brandon breaks down the most common HIPAA pitfalls seen across clinics—what creates real risk, what regulators look for (including the “gross negligence” standard), and how to build repeatable safeguards that reduce exposure without paralyzing your team.You'll get a practical, systems-first walkthrough of HIPAA basics that actually cause breaches: unsecured devices and stored passwords, weak access controls (shared logins, poor password hygiene, missing role-based access), improper disposal of records, missing Business Associate Agreements (BAAs), outdated policies, and unencrypted transmission (email, file transfers, and especially texting). Brandon clarifies key definitions—PHI at rest vs. PHI in transit, what de-identification does (and does not) cover, and why encryption has become the de facto standard for minimizing breach impact and protecting patient trust. Note: This content is educational and not legal advice. Welcome to Private Practice Survival Guide Podcast hosted by Brandon Seigel!

One year ago, Anthropic launched the Model Context Protocol (MCP)—a simple, open standard to connect AI applications to the data and tools they need. Today, MCP has exploded from a local-only experiment into the de facto protocol for agentic systems, adopted by OpenAI, Microsoft, Google, Block, and hundreds of enterprises building internal agents at scale. And now, MCP is joining the newly formed Agentic AI Foundation (AAIF) under the Linux Foundation, alongside Block's Goose coding agent, with founding members spanning the biggest names in AI and cloud infrastructure. We sat down with David Soria Parra (MCP lead, Anthropic), Nick Cooper (OpenAI), Brad Howes (Block / Goose), and Jim Zemlin (Linux Foundation CEO) to dig into the one-year journey of MCP—from Thanksgiving hacking sessions and the first remote authentication spec to long-running tasks, MCP Apps, and the rise of agent-to-agent communication—and the behind-the-scenes story of how three competitive AI labs came together to donate their protocols and agents to a neutral foundation, why enterprises are deploying MCP servers faster than anyone expected (most of it invisible, internal, and at massive scale), what it takes to design a protocol that works for both simple tool calls and complex multi-agent orchestration, how the foundation will balance taste-making (curating meaningful projects) with openness (avoiding vendor lock-in), and the 2025 vision: MCP as the communication layer for asynchronous, long-running agents that work while you sleep, discover and install their own tools, and unlock the next order of magnitude in AI productivity. We discuss: The one-year MCP journey: from local stdio servers to remote HTTP streaming, OAuth 2.1 authentication (and the enterprise lessons learned), long-running tasks, and MCP Apps (iframes for richer UI) Why MCP adoption is exploding internally at enterprises: invisible, internal servers connecting agents to Slack, Linear, proprietary data, and compliance-heavy workflows (financial services, healthcare) The authentication evolution: separating resource servers from identity providers, dynamic client registration, and why the March spec wasn't enterprise-ready (and how June fixed it) How Anthropic dogfoods MCP: internal gateway, custom servers for Slack summaries and employee surveys, and why MCP was born from "how do I scale dev tooling faster than the company grows?" Tasks: the new primitive for long-running, asynchronous agent operations—why tools aren't enough, how tasks enable deep research and agent-to-agent handoffs, and the design choice to make tasks a "container" (not just async tools) MCP Apps: why iframes, how to handle styles and branding, seat selection and shopping UIs as the killer use case, and the collaboration with OpenAI to build a common standard The registry problem: official registry vs. curated sub-registries (Smithery, GitHub), trust levels, model-driven discovery, and why MCP needs "npm for agents" (but with signatures and HIPAA/financial compliance) The founding story of AAIF: how Anthropic, OpenAI, and Block came together (spoiler: they didn't know each other were talking to Linux Foundation), why neutrality matters, and how Jim Zemlin has never seen this much day-one inbound interest in 22 years — David Soria Parra (Anthropic / MCP) MCP: https://modelcontextprotocol.io https://uk.linkedin.com/in/david-soria-parra-4a78b3a https://x.com/dsp_ Nick Cooper (OpenAI) X: https://x.com/nicoaicopr Brad Howes (Block / Goose) Goose: https://github.com/block/goose Jim Zemlin (Linux Foundation) LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/zemlin/ Agentic AI Foundation https://agenticai.foundation Chapters 00:00:00 Introduction: MCP's First Year and Foundation Launch 00:01:17 MCP's Journey: From Launch to Industry Standard 00:02:06 Protocol Evolution: Remote Servers and Authentication 00:08:52 Enterprise Authentication and Financial Services 00:11:42 Transport Layer Challenges: HTTP Streaming and Scalability 00:15:37 Standards Development: Collaboration with Tech Giants 00:34:27 Long-Running Tasks: The Future of Async Agents 00:30:41 Discovery and Registries: Building the MCP Ecosystem 00:30:54 MCP Apps and UI: Beyond Text Interfaces 00:26:55 Internal Adoption: How Anthropic Uses MCP 00:23:15 Skills vs MCP: Complementary Not Competing 00:36:16 Community Events and Enterprise Learnings 01:03:31 Foundation Formation: Why Now and Why Together 01:07:38 Linux Foundation Partnership: Structure and Governance 01:11:13 Goose as Reference Implementation 01:17:28 Principles Over Roadmaps: Composability and Quality 01:21:02 Foundation Value Proposition: Why Contribute 01:27:49 Practical Investments: Events, Tools, and Community 01:34:58 Looking Ahead: Async Agents and Real Impact

How Do Top Performers Stay Motivated When Sales Gets Hard? You know the feeling when you close a big deal. The rush. The quiet satisfaction of updating your pipeline. Maybe a quick high-five with your manager. And then, almost immediately, it fades. You're back to cold calls that go unanswered, emails that disappear into inboxes, and prospects who promised they were interested suddenly going silent. In sales, rejection isn't a side effect of the job. It is the job. That reality is exactly why most people don't last in sales. And it's why the people who do last tend to get paid very well. Over the past quarter, we talked with some of the most consistent sales leaders in the business. Here are four moments from the Sales Gravy Podcast that reveal how top performers stay motivated and close more deals, even when the work feels heavy. Find Your Carrot and Make It Specific Will Frattini, VP of Sales at ZoomInfo, keeps a small Christmas ornament on his desk. His daughter gave it to him when she was five. That ornament is his carrot. During a recent podcast conversation, Will explained that when sales gets hard, that ornament reminds him exactly why he keeps pushing. Not in an abstract or inspirational-poster way, but in a deeply personal one. It represents his family, his responsibility, and the future he's building for them. That distinction matters. Many salespeople say they're motivated by family, freedom, or financial security. Those values are real, but on their own, they're often too broad to sustain sales motivation during a brutal stretch of rejection. When you're fifty dials deep with no connects and another demo just canceled, vague motivation doesn't hold up. Will doesn't just think “my family.” He sees a moment, a memory, and a tangible reminder of what's at stake. That specificity gives his motivation weight. Top performers anchor their sales motivation to something concrete and emotionally charged. A down payment they want to make by a certain date. A trip they want to take without checking their bank account. A milestone that matters beyond quota. The more specific the carrot, the more powerful it becomes when sales gets hard. How to define yours: Write down one specific outcome you want to achieve in the next six months. Not “hit quota,” but the real-world result that quota enables. A number. A purchase. An experience. Put it somewhere you'll see it every day. Work With Customers Who Actually Value You One of the fastest ways to drain sales motivation is closing deals with customers who make you miserable. On an episode of Ask Jeb, Jeb broke down how companies grow faster by focusing on the right customers, not just more customers. When you're behind on quota late in the year, it's tempting to take anything that looks like revenue. Any company that shows interest. Any prospect willing to meet. You convince yourself that a deal is a deal. Then January arrives. That customer floods your team with support tickets, questions every invoice, demands exceptions, and slowly erodes the satisfaction of the win you celebrated just weeks earlier. Consistent performers learn to protect their energy. They get ruthless about fit. Not just company size or industry, but values. They ask questions like, “What do you value most in a partner?” and they listen carefully to the answer. Some buyers want constant responsiveness. Others value expert perspective and challenge. Some want efficiency and minimal interaction. None of those preferences are wrong. But only one aligns with how you actually sell. When sales gets hard, motivation comes easier when you're pursuing customers who respect your approach instead of fighting it. How to clarify your ideal customer: Look at your three favorite customers. The ones your entire team enjoys working with. What do they share beyond surface-level traits? How did they behave during the buying process? Those patterns matter more than any firmographic filter. Slow Down Before You Create Your Own Problems When pressure builds, speed starts to feel productive. You rush contracts. You promise timelines without checking internally. You say yes to custom requirements because slowing down feels risky. On an episode of the Sales Gravy Podcast, Jeb Blount, Jr. shared one of the most painful stories we heard this year. A $1.4 million deal with a pediatrics practice unraveled after someone rushed the process and placed the client into an early adopter program without a test environment. The result was catastrophic. The client's live system crashed, HIPAA was violated, and the company lost not only the deal but $600,000 in annual recurring revenue. Top performers understand something most reps learn the hard way: smooth is fast. They build guardrails around high-risk moments. Before sending a contract, they align internally. Before committing to timelines, they check with the people who actually do the work. Slowing down at the right moments builds trust. It prevents chaos. And it preserves sales motivation by keeping you from spending the next quarter cleaning up mistakes made under pressure. How to build a slowdown system: Identify the three points in your sales process where you tend to rush. Proposals, negotiations, technical commitments. Create a short checklist for each and make it mandatory. Use AI to Think Faster, Not to Stop Thinking Sales demands constant context switching. Pipeline reviews. Prospect research. Discovery prep. Follow-up. Objection handling. The mental load adds up quickly. Victor Antonio recently shared an example of a window company using vision AI to diagnose broken window seals from photos. Instead of sending a technician, customers submit an image. The system verifies the issue, checks inventory, confirms warranty status, and schedules service automatically. AI hasn't changed what strong salespeople do. It's changed how quickly they get to the work that actually matters. Top performers use AI to handle tasks that drain energy but don't require judgment. Research summaries. Organizing notes. Drafting frameworks. That speed preserves mental bandwidth for conversations, strategy, and relationship building. Used correctly, AI supports sales motivation by reducing friction, not replacing effort. How to use AI without dulling your edge: List the tasks you repeat weekly that consume time but not insight. Let AI handle those. Keep anything involving trust, nuance, or decision-making firmly in your hands. Why This Matters for Sales Motivation Sales has always been hard. Cold calling was hard decades ago, and it's still hard today. You still have to find people, start conversations, build trust, and ask for commitments. What separates average reps from consistent performers isn't resilience alone. It's structure. Top performers know exactly what they're chasing and why it matters. They protect themselves from bad-fit customers. They slow down when it counts. And they use tools strategically to preserve energy for selling. They still get rejected. They still lose deals. They still have months where nothing goes right. But they don't drift. They don't panic. And they don't quit when the work gets uncomfortable. That discipline is what sustains sales motivation long after the initial excitement wears off. If you want a clearer target to aim at when sales gets hard, download the FREE Sales Gravy Goal Guide. It will help you define the goals that actually keep you focused, disciplined, and motivated—especially when rejection starts piling up.

How can pharma and healthcare organizations balance innovation, AI, and privacy compliance?In this episode of FIT4Privacy, Punit joined by Timothy Nobles, a leading expert in data privacy and healthcare innovation, to explore how organizations can responsibly use data while staying compliant with global regulations like GDPR and HIPAA.If you're passionate about the intersection of privacy, data, and healthcare innovation, this conversation is a must-listen.

In this episode I chat with Joe Bielling, a Level 3 IFS practitioner, licensed therapist, and co-author of From Broken to Badass. We talk about what happens when coping, adapting, and belonging slowly pull us away from ourselves, and how to find your way back. Joe shares parts of his personal story, including a period he describes as a mental breakdown and spiritual awakening, and how IFS helped him slow down, notice his parts, and reconnect with his body, heart, and Self Energy. We discuss: Self-forgetting, people-pleasing, and the "chameleon" strategies of belonging How Enneagram dynamics show up in relationships and identity Unblending as both a psychological process and a spiritual experience Why "the resistance is actually part of the path" How IFS and non-duality can point to more than either-or thinking Why staying "broken" can feel safer to some parts of us Gratitude for coping strategies before trying to change them The question underneath it all: Who is the one behind my eyes? Extended Substack Conversation In the extended interview over on Substack, Joe and I talk about hope, embodiment, trauma, and the Enneagram centers. Joe shares what helps him stay embodied now and where he's finding hope. About Joe Bielling Joe Bielling is a licensed therapist and Level 3 IFS practitioner. He is the co-author with Kate West of From Broken to Badass, a practical IFS based book that helps people break free from high level coping strategies, and old outdated survival patterns, into empowered living.

If the idea of hiring help in your practice immediately brings up fear about HIPAA, confidentiality, or losing control, this episode will bring a lot of clarity. Dr. Kate Walker breaks down exactly what therapists can delegate right now, what you should never hand off blindly, and how to protect your license while still getting critical tasks off your plate.Kate walks through real-world examples of delegation—from marketing and intake calls to email management and SOP creation—while explaining how HIPAA actually works in practice (not the scary myths most of us carry around). You'll hear why delegating the wrong things first can waste time and money, how to train VAs responsibly, and why systems—not hustle—are what allow practices to grow without chaos.If you've been trying to “build the plane while flying it,” or you know your systems need to be in place before your caseload spikes, this episode will help you delegate with confidence instead of fear.In this episode, you'll learn:What therapists can safely delegate to a VA, including marketing tasks, intake calls, email workflows, and follow-ups—without violating HIPAA.How to train and onboard virtual assistants using HIPAA education, clear boundaries, and simple SOPs that actually prevent mistakes.Why screen-recorded SOPs, Trello boards, and structured workflows work better than long written instructions—and how to set them up efficiently.If you're ready to stop doing everything yourself and start building systems that support your growth, this episode gives you a practical, HIPAA-safe place to start.If you're ready to lead with confidence, join the 2026 Supervisor Course waitlist for early access to bonus tools, templates, and fast-track grading.

Doug Green, Publisher of Technology Reseller News, spoke with Ty Kircher (NSP Practice Lead, Cellhub) and Dennis Napoliello (Head of U.S. Sales, MultiLine at Movius) about a problem every mobile-first organization runs into: separating personal and business communications on one smartphone—securely and compliantly—without forcing employees to carry two phones. “The MultiLine solution gives enterprises control without forcing users to carry two phones.” Cellhub has been working with vendors like Movius to build an ecosystem of partners (including carrier T-Mobile) that helps channel partners deliver innovative mobile solutions to end-users. Movius addresses the security gap in employee-to-client voice, messaging, and collaboration by offering Secure Communications as a Service. MultiLine™ is designed for hybrid and mobile work: users maintain two separate lines on one device, each secure, compliant, and dedicated—with separate features like voicemail—and with multi-channel communications documented per line. This eliminates the need for separate phones/numbers for Teams, personal use, social media, and apps like WhatsApp or WeChat—Movius consolidates multi-channel communication into one unified, secure ecosystem. That's a strong differentiator for solution providers selling into healthcare and financial services, where organizations must ensure communications compliance with regulations like HIPAA and FINRA, including on personal devices, and across verticals such as government, transportation, and education. MultiLine is positioned as an AI-driven, mobile-first approach that unifies communications and collaboration. Cellhub is also coordinating with a roster of vendor partners to bring unique mobile and wireless computing products and services to market, including initiatives with Tri Cascade, SkyMirr, and its PC-as-a-Service program with Lifetime EndPoint Resource.

We're getting techy!! On this week's episode hosts Erin Gallardo, PT, DPT, NCS and Claire McLean, PT, DPT, NCS share a new tool that's changing everything at Rogue, Claire's wellness gym for people with PD. Claire confesses to using paper documentation until recently and is now entering the 21st century. What's propelling her into the "now" is a new tool she's been trying for a couple of weeks called the Plaud NotePin. It's a small, wearable, and HIPAA-compliant AI device designed for healthcare professionals that helps with documentation either in-session or via dictation after. Though we're not affiliates for Plaud (yet!), she makes a great case for how her team is using it and why she's loving it for clinicians. Driven by the universal challenge of time-consuming paperwork, Claire became inspired by other practitioners employing AI for faster documentation. Her search for an efficient, phone-free solution led to the adoption of the Plaud NotePin. While the Plaud NotePin has proven to be a major time-saver and easy to integrate into their workflow, some learning curve remains, especially regarding templates and integration with existing forms. The team is transparent about privacy, requiring client consent via an AI waiver and ensuring compliance with HIPAA standards and data security regulations. Both Erin and Claire are excited about how solutions like this can reduce administrative burdens, improve care quality, and potentially transform the future of healthcare documentation for clinicians and clients alike. The team is committed to ongoing testing, sharing updates, and exploring collaborative opportunities as AI continues to expand its role in their practice. Send us a DM on IG if you're using this or another AI tool for your documentation! @neurocollaborative  Check out the Plaud NotePin here

If you want to get leaner and live longer check out https://milliondollarbodylabs.com   Will an AI doctor soon replace your physician? I talk about how personalized testing and artificial intelligence are making true preventative health cheaper and more accessible.   I talked with Hunter Ziesing, who shifted from a successful career in finance after losing family and friends to preventable diseases. He now runs Longevity Health, a virtual clinic providing comprehensive diagnostic testing, including 60 blood biomarkers, DEXA scans, and VO2 max, for $11,000 annually. The goal is to make health preventative, not reactionary, moving beyond the current sick-care model. We discuss how their AI platform analyzes this massive data to create customized health plans, significantly reducing costs and giving constant, gentle reminders to change daily habits, making prevention affordable and effective. We also cover the challenges of getting consumers ready for a doctorless AI model and the essential role of human doctors in the future.   Key Takeaways Longevity Health offers a fully HIPAA compliant, physician-led virtual clinic for $11,000 per year, which is a fraction of the cost of some high-end clinics. The virtual clinic provides comprehensive testing, including a DEXA scan (for bone density and visceral fat), a CGM glucose monitor (worn for about two months), a blood test (analyzing around 60 biomarkers), a VO2 max test, a sleep study, and gut biome analysis. The tests are tailored to the individual's specific health concerns and family history. DEXA and blood tests are the metrics repeated most often every quarter to see real change. The "trillion dollar business" is what they are building around AI. AI has the potential to significantly reduce the cost of personalized medicine and make health information more accessible to the masses. AI is not fully ready yet, as it still "hallucinates," and regulations are not yet finalized. Furthermore, consumers are not fully ready for the "driverless doctor" and still desire a human physician in the loop for critical decisions. The preventative health approach requires giving people a "check engine warning light" via an app, offering constant, gentle reminders to reinforce healthy behaviors before a disease is diagnosed.   Resources Website: https://www.longevityhealth.me LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/hunterziesing   Nate Palmer: The founder of The Million Dollar Body and author of "The Million Dollar Body Method", Nate has been coaching for over 15 years and has worked personally with over 1,000 clients.
