Podcasts about learning strategies

Send a textThis episode breaks down why leadership fails in practice operations—and what high-performing leaders do differently. Starting with the real barriers to leadership, Brandon uses a Tom Brady example to explain the drive, standards, and internal accountability required to lead when pressure is high. You'll learn a Vision-Driven Strategist framework for creating change: define the vision, translate it into measurable goals, and build the structure that makes execution repeatable—not dependent on personality or “good days.”The conversation then shifts into culture and team performance: why your team is the engine and culture is the fuel, and why leaders must architect structure, not simply delegate tasks. Brandon challenges the misconception that empathy alone is leadership—showing how empathy without clear expectations creates inconsistency—and explains the hard truth: when people respect you, you can lead; when they don't, you can't. You'll also get a practical take on social and emotional intelligence in the workplace, including when to listen vs. challenge, how small behaviors shape trust, and the four emotional intelligence factors that influence communication, conflict, and accountability. The episode closes with servant leadership, turning plans from paper into reality, and the question every owner should ask: are leaders born—or made?Welcome to Private Practice Survival Guide Podcast hosted by Brandon Seigel!

Send a textIn this quick-tip episode of The Private Practice Survival Guide, Brandon Siegel breaks down three practical ways to improve your direct mail results by sharpening one thing most campaigns get wrong: the call to action (CTA). He explains what a CTA actually is, why clarity beats cleverness, and how to structure a single, bold next step your audience can understand in five seconds or less.You'll learn how to reduce friction (so people can act fast), how to use urgency without sounding gimmicky, and how to align your direct mail CTA with a mobile-optimized landing page experience that converts. Brandon also walks through a standout case study: a clinic that used a retention-based Hawaii vacation incentive to attract and hire five physical therapists in 180 days—showing how lifestyle-driven CTAs can outperform cash bonuses when they reflect culture, values, and long-term commitment.If you want higher ROI from direct mail—whether you're recruiting, generating leads, or filling schedules—this episode provides a simple CTA checklist you can apply immediately, plus a clear action step to audit your last campaign and upgrade what happens next.Welcome to Private Practice Survival Guide Podcast hosted by Brandon Seigel!

In this uplifting episode of the MINDTRX Podcast, Dr. Paul Scheele welcomes Gloria Belendez-Ramirez for a joyful, expansive conversation about remembering your divinity and returning to your natural state of love, gratitude, and inner ease. Gloria shares a powerful turning point from her teenage years—a hospital-room revelation that shifted her from fear and illness into appreciation and freedom. What changed was not her past, but her perception. As she describes it, it can happen as quickly as "changing your glasses," reminding us that transformation doesn't always require years of effort—sometimes it begins in a single moment of truth. Together, Paul and Gloria explore the difference between contraction and expansion, and how the emotions we live in shape our health, relationships, and sense of purpose. Gloria explains how fear and emotional discomfort can shut down the nervous system and create illness, while appreciation and wonder restore the body to its natural state of wellbeing. Paul builds on this by describing the five vital emotions—joy, peace, contentment, gratitude, and happiness—and how living from these states helps clear emotional baggage and return us to love, which ultimately "casts out fear." You'll also hear one of Gloria's most memorable teachings: "Cleaning the Table," a metaphor for clearing emotional clutter and refusing to let one painful moment erase the goodness of an entire life or relationship. Instead of fixating on the "spill," she encourages listeners to clear the table completely, return to gratitude, and choose a new experience. Throughout the conversation, Gloria emphasizes that the most reliable guidance is not found through overthinking, but through feeling—tuning into what expands you, what restores you, and what reconnects you with awe. Before closing, Gloria offers a simple practice for overwhelmed moments: a breath ritual of receiving and giving. Inhale "pink" as a symbol of joy, and exhale "purple" as a symbol of empathy—allowing your breath to bring you back into balance, presence, and peace. This episode is a warm reminder that no matter what you've lived through, your divinity is not negotiable—and your next shift can begin right now. Gloria Belendez Ramirez is an author and spiritual teacher known for her bold, joyful approach to human transformation and divine remembrance. Her work emphasizes appreciation, reverence for life, and living in alignment with nature as the most direct path back to inner peace and purpose. She shares powerful teachings through her books and through the retreat space she created in San Miguel de Allende, designed to help people remember who they are and live from joy, awe, and benevolence.

Send a textWe tackle a reality most practice owners are feeling: digital marketing is getting more expensive, more crowded, and less predictable. As search and social costs rise, “disruptive” marketing is shifting from being optional to being a competitive advantage—especially in a world where digital saturation makes it harder for practices to stand out and be remembered.This episode makes the case for direct mail as a high-impact channel again—not as a generic flyer, but as a tactile, value-forward experience that earns attention. From creative mail concepts (including gift cards and non-traditional formats) to why “they're always listening” across platforms, the discussion highlights how modern direct mail complements digital strategy instead of competing with it. The key is value: messaging that helps the recipient, builds trust, and creates a clear reason to respond.You'll get into the operational side of what makes direct mail work today: CRM-triggered campaigns, the importance of clean data, and dialing in your Ideal Client Profile so you mail to the right people at the right time. The episode closes by tying performance back to fundamentals—cost of acquisition, credibility signals (like correct name spelling), and the role of measurable direct mail stats—grounded with a practical marketing mindset influenced by leaders.Welcome to Private Practice Survival Guide Podcast hosted by Brandon Seigel!

Send a textIn this Private Practice Survival Guide quick tip, Brandon reframes HR as the single biggest catalyst for owner freedom—because the path from burned-out operator to strategic CEO is built on people systems, not more hustle. He explains why many private practice owners feel trapped in constant turnover, confrontation, and decision fatigue, and makes the case that a strategic HR function becomes the “leadership engine” that fuels growth, accountability, and organizational impact.You'll learn three core ways HR transforms the private practice owner's role: (1) building scalable infrastructure through org charts, role clarity, SOPs, onboarding, and performance systems that eliminate bottlenecks; (2) protecting culture and accountability by translating founder values into daily leadership behaviors, strengthening engagement, and developing leadership pipelines; and (3) turning HR into a data-driven strategy arm by tracking workforce analytics, turnover cost models, compensation strategy, and training investment—so HR earns a true seat at the executive table.The episode closes with a real-world case study from a pediatric therapy practice, showing how strategic (including fractional) HR leadership helped scale from 15 to 50 employees across two locations in 18 months, improved administrative efficiency, redesigned compensation tied to productivity and outcomes, and delivered substantial ROI—ultimately enabling the owner to step out of reactive management and into CEO-level leadership. If you want your practice to run without you being in every lane, this episode lays out the HR operating system that makes it possible.Welcome to Private Practice Survival Guide Podcast hosted by Brandon Seigel!

Send us a textMost leaders think payroll is a simple math problem. This conversation breaks down why it is more complex—and why the way you classify, pay, and structure your team directly impacts profitability, valuation, retention, and culture. From the real differences between W-2 employees and 1099 contractors to exempt vs. non-exempt rules, the episode clarifies what “Uncle Sam gets paid either way” actually means and why a contractor-heavy model can limit the value of a business.You will learn how to evaluate compensation beyond salary by valuing time, calculating employee pay-to-time ratios, and tracking Total People Expense as a core operating percentage. The discussion covers productivity pay, incentive alignment, and the “business algorithm” leaders can use to connect employee risk, margin, and ownership-based motivation—plus how to build crucial benchmarks and review timelines so every employee has a roadmap.The episode shifts from spreadsheets to leadership: how to see more than numbers, offer options without losing accountability (including overtime and hybrid hourly structures), define work-life balance clearly, and improve employer branding so your marketing attracts the right workers. It closes with practical context around global wage equivalency and market salary stats to ground decisions in reality.Welcome to Private Practice Survival Guide Podcast hosted by Brandon Seigel!

Send us a textIn this episode, you'll learn why exempt salaries often fail in private practices—even when they look like a clean solution for predictable payroll. The episode breaks down what “exempt” actually means under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) (fixed salary, no overtime eligibility, and strict duties tests) and why many practice owners unintentionally create risk by using “salary” as a shortcut instead of a compliance-based classification.You'll hear the most common failure points: misclassification exposure (back pay, penalties, audits, reputational damage), morale erosion when overtime work goes uncompensated, and loss of payroll flexibility due to guaranteed pay rules when any work occurs in a workweek. The episode also explains how exempt status rarely delivers true autonomy in clinical settings with rigid schedules—and why this mismatch quietly undermines trust.Finally, the host outlines practical alternatives—such as hourly pay plus incentive-based bonuses—that deliver clearer compliance, stronger motivation, and fairer compensation without locking the practice into rigid exempt-salary constraints.Welcome to Private Practice Survival Guide Podcast hosted by Brandon Seigel!

What if you didn't have to relive the past to move beyond it? In this episode of the MINDTRX Podcast, Dr. Paul Scheele sits down with Mary Petto, author of "The Family Guide to the Law of Attraction," to explore why freedom and joy are not just philosophies—but practical signals that guide real transformation. Mary explains how many people attempt conscious creation while unknowingly running old subconscious loops, why you're not broken—you're looped, and how awareness retrains the mind to notice new possibilities. She introduces her "purple car theory," showing how attention, perception, and the nervous system work together to shape what you experience in life. The conversation also explores Rapid Resolution Therapy (RRT) and how emotional patterns can resolve without endlessly revisiting old stories. You'll learn how restoring a sense of safety allows the nervous system to stand down, what a true quantum leap looks like in everyday life, and how simple mindfulness practices can return you to a calm, creative, fully resourced state—right where you are. Mary Petto is a Vibrational Energy Coach, Rapid Turmoil Resolution Specialist, and author who delivers fast, transformative shifts. Through her Quantum Leap Success™ method, she blends neuroscience, psychology, and energy work to help clients clear mental loops, heal, and create the results they actually want.

Send us a textDo personality tests actually translate into real-world performance—or are they just another hiring trend? In this episode, we break down how personality assessments, when used correctly, can become a powerful predictor of performance, retention, and team effectiveness.The conversation explores why conscientiousness consistently emerges as one of the strongest predictors of success in modern performance models, and why high-performing organizations avoid hiring “yes people” in favor of individuals who bring healthy pushback and critical thinking. You'll learn where personality tests add the most value in the hiring process, how misuse can lead to poor outcomes, and why context matters as much as the data itself.We examine how assessment insights support stronger employee retention, improve human resource management decisions, and help leaders build teams designed for sustained performance—not short-term compliance. Backed by management and HR statistics, this episode shows how personality data can illuminate the path to peak performance when paired with sound leadership and operational discipline.If you're responsible for hiring, managing, or developing teams—and want to move beyond gut instinct into evidence-based decision-making—this episode delivers practical insight you can apply immediately.Welcome to Private Practice Survival Guide Podcast hosted by Brandon Seigel!

Send us a textIn this Private Practice Survival Guide episode, Brandon Seigel explains how personality assessments become truly useful when you treat them as decision-grade data—not labels. He reframes assessments as a way to understand patterns in thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, and clarifies a common misunderstanding: someone can be introverted and still enjoy extrovert activities, but that doesn't mean those activities won't exhaust them. The leadership takeaway is simple—don't confuse being good at something with being sustainably wired for it.Brandon outlines a practical framework for implementing assessments inside an organization: define your strategic intent and limit your criteria to 3–5 so the data stays actionable (role fit, predictability, leadership readiness, risk mitigation). He emphasizes that personality tests and skills tests both matter—sharing a hiring story where execution and reliability beat flash—while behavior-based tools can surface performance patterns under pressure. He highlights emotional intelligence as a measurable lever and notes that empathy is valuable, but only when it's channeled into accountability and clear expectations. Welcome to Private Practice Survival Guide Podcast hosted by Brandon Seigel!

Send us a textWe break down why the future of effective marketing is no longer transactional, but transformational. Rather than chasing one-time conversions, the conversation reframes marketing as a trust-based, value-driven process built on dialogue, collaboration, and genuine human connection.We explore how shifting the question from “How do I sell to you?” to “Why would you want to succeed with me?” changes outcomes entirely. By focusing on creating real results for clients, brands can deepen loyalty, increase lifetime value, and build referral systems rooted in collaboration instead of incentives alone. The episode also examines how older, relationship-first marketing models succeeded because of trust, and why modern compliance challenges don't eliminate the power of human connection—they demand more intentionality.Through emotional storytelling and real-world examples, including a small but meaningful gesture that sparked a lasting impact, the episode highlights how authenticity, storytelling, and emotional resonance outperform tactics and scripts. Ultimately, relationship-driven marketing isn't about volume—it's about consistency, credibility, and creating experiences people remember and want to share. Welcome to Private Practice Survival Guide Podcast hosted by Brandon Seigel!

In this illuminating episode of the MINDTRX Podcast, Dr. Paul Scheele welcomes intuitive channel, mentor, and author Stephanie Banks for a deep exploration of what it means to trust your inner knowing. Together, they unpack the gifts of the right hemisphere of the brain — intuition, creativity, inclusivity, and connection — and how allowing it to lead can transform not only your personal life but our broader culture. Stephanie shares how intuition operates on a subtle, non-fear-based level, and why practices like meditation, HeartMath® heart-brain coherence, and even nanoseconds of inner stillness can make you more receptive to guidance. She explains how we've been conditioned to outsource truth to external authorities and how reclaiming your inner authority turns "mistakes" into choices that refine your path. They also explore the continuum from self-doubt to self-trust, the role of the inner critic as a tool for refinement rather than self-attack, and how joy, ease, and playfulness signal when your spirit is truly leading your life. This conversation is an invitation to let your soul's purpose — to love more fully — guide your decisions, relationships, and next steps. What You'll Learn in This Episode How the right hemisphere of the brain supports intuition, creativity, connection, and compassion Why intuition never disappears — we simply train our attention away from it Simple practices to quiet your mind and enter receptive states, including HeartMath® quick coherence breathing How to distinguish fear-based inner chatter from the calm, spacious voice of true inner wisdom A new way to view "mistakes" as choices that refine your path and deepen self-trust How journaling and self-observation can reveal the cycles of your inner critic Why joy, ease, and playfulness are powerful indicators that your spirit is guiding your life   Stephanie Banks is a highly sought-after intuitive channel, mentor, and guide who helps people connect on the soul level. Through her work at Soul Insight, she channels wisdom from spirit guides, higher selves, and the natural world to help clients discern their inner voice of wisdom, rebuild self-trust, and clarify their soul's purpose.

Send us a textRelationship-based marketing is not about sounding polished—it's about sounding human. In this episode, we break down what separates genuine relationship marketing from transactional “used car salesman” tactics, and why trust, consistency, and customer experience are the real growth levers.You'll learn how people make decisions when they feel valued, and why marketing becomes truly effective when you can apply data and insights to create relevance for the customer. We unpack why brands like Disney win at loyalty by engineering experience, not gimmicks—and why you don't have to know someone personally to build a relationship with them if your message is relatable, consistent, and authentic.The conversation also hits the credibility problem: when referrals are driven by money incentives, the relationship loses its meaning and your reputation takes a hit. Instead, we explore how to invest in clients as people—not just accounts—and how community-building (including conferences that bring practices together) creates network effects that drive real growth.Finally, we get tactical: funnel marketing vs relationship nurturing, how to use drip campaigns to build engagement over time, and why nurture marketing and drip sequences often perform exceptionally well in healthcare and medical practices. If you want a marketing approach that compounds—where trust turns into referrals, retention, and long-term revenue—this episode lays out the principles and the playbook.Welcome to Private Practice Survival Guide Podcast hosted by Brandon Seigel!

Send us a textIn this episode of the Private Practice Survival Guide, Brandon Siegel breaks down why the “another day, another dollar” mindset quietly limits growth—and how reframing progress changes everything. Instead of chasing outcomes alone, this conversation focuses on why progress over attainment creates stronger teams, healthier motivation, and more sustainable performance inside private practices.We explore how small wins compound into powerful feedback loops, why recognizing employee effort matters just as much as results, and how autonomy fuels ownership when leaders trust their teams. Brandon discusses the importance of visual feedback, shared accountability, and why private practice success is never an individual effort—it's a team sport.Grounded in practical leadership principles and reinforced with insights inspired by Tony Robbins, this episode offers a clear framework for helping employees stay engaged, build momentum, and reach meaningful goals without burnout or disengagement.

Real performance doesn't come from pressure or metrics alone; it comes from alignment, ownership, and visible progress in both life and work.This conversation challenges the idea that employees should only have goals tied to company KPIs. Instead, it explores how personal goals, skill development, budget ownership, and peer-led problem solving create higher engagement, stronger accountability, and real behavioral change. You'll hear why the best leaders give people projects they care about, trust them with responsibility, and measure success using both qualitative and quantitative data.We dive into how to read between the lines when employees tell you what they think you want to hear, why collaboration outperforms top-down correction, and how adaptability separates growth-oriented teams from stagnant ones.

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!

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!

Send us a textIn this episode of the Private Practice Survival Guide, Brandon breaks down the most common leadership flaws hurting today's private practices—and how they quietly drive burnout, turnover, low morale, and declining client experience. He outlines practical, real-world issues leaders face: lack of clear vision and role-based accountability, micromanagement, poor delegation, low emotional intelligence, resistance to change, inconsistent decision-making, weak conflict resolution, and an overfocus on short-term outcomes at the expense of sustainable strategy. A major throughline is communication: when goals, priorities, and expectations aren't explicit, teams lose motivation, productivity drops, and opportunities disappear because employees stop speaking up. Brandon calls out the “know-best manager” who shuts down input and creates fearful, disengaged staff—ultimately hurting innovation and service quality. The episode closes with actionable coaching strategies leaders can implement immediately: structured feedback (360 reviews), clear communication frameworks, active listening, documented systems and tools, and measurable accountability habits that rebuild trust and performance. Welcome to Private Practice Survival Guide Podcast hosted by Brandon Seigel!

Send us a textIf your practice keeps losing great people, it's probably not the pay—it's your managers.In this Quick Tip episode, we break down why so many managers “suck” in private practice and what to do about it. From promoting your best clinician into a job they were never trained for, to rewarding people who don't even like managing, we unpack the real reasons leadership fails—and how that failure is costing you talent, culture, and revenue.Using the story of “Ralph,” the star salesperson turned disastrous sales director, Brandon shows why top performers don't automatically make great managers, and why putting them in leadership without a plan can tank both their performance and your team's.

Send us a textThis quick-tip episode exposes the real truth behind EMR transitions—and why anything shorter than 60 days can cost your practice serious money, data integrity, and peace of mind.Discover why longer EMR transitions protect your team, your patients, and your cash flow. From payer enrollment and EDI setup to clean data migration, staff training, and 90-day overlap planning, this episode gives you a bulletproof framework to avoid chaos, burnout, and billing disasters.

Send us a textTransitioning EMRs can either be the upgrade that unlocks your practice's next level—or the operational nightmare that drains cash, kills productivity, and torpedoes patient experience. In this hard-hitting episode of Private Practice Survival Guide, Brandon Siegel demolishes the “4–6 week” implementation myth and lays out a battle-tested roadmap: a realistic 3–6 month (often 9–12 month end-to-end) plan, a 90-day parallel run, airtight data migration (HL7/FHIR/CCD/CCDA), and surgical timing for EDI/ERA so revenue doesn't evaporate mid-switch. You'll learn how to map workflows, choose features that matter (not “massaging seats”), set KPIs, avoid AI-driven compliance traps, stage go-lives during low-volume windows, and build a true stakeholder taskforce (project lead, super users, vendor coordination) with downtime contingencies and HIPAA-grade security. If you're changing EMRs in 2025–2026, this is your no-BS playbook to protect cash flow, staff, and patients—while actually improving care.Welcome to Private Practice Survival Guide Podcast hosted by Brandon Seigel!
