What does it take to build a chiropractic practice that can keep growing without staying dependent on the owner? It starts with recognizing when the habits, systems, and assumptions that got you here no longer fit the practice you are building. Dr. Lona and Dr. Andrew explore what changes when you start treating the business side of practice with the same commitment you give the art, science, and philosophy of chiropractic. From questioning inherited practice models and understanding the numbers behind sustainability to building a team that offsets your weaknesses, they challenge practice owners to recognize when what got them here will not get them where they want to go. The more willing you are to look closely at your business, keep learning, and adapt the practice to its current season, the better positioned you are to grow without building everything around yourself.Key Highlights01:54 – Dr. Andrew recalls the moment a successful practice suddenly looked very different once he saw how much he still had to learn.04:08 – A common scheduling habit raises a bigger question about which parts of your practice exist because they still work and which are simply inherited.07:19 – What changes when the systems that served a smaller practice begin limiting the practice you are trying to build now.09:26 – Putting a monetary value on patient care can feel uncomfortable, but avoiding the numbers creates a different problem for the practice owner.11:21 – One number many doctors rarely calculate may reveal whether delivering care is actually sustainable.13:32 – A different way to think about nearby practices when the larger opportunity is reaching the people who still are not using chiropractic.15:28 – Growing beyond an owner-dependent practice requires both expansive thinking and a willingness to look closely at what the numbers are telling you.17:25 – The team member you need most may be the person whose strengths are almost the opposite of yours.20:15 – When your practice is stuck, the reason you cannot find the answer yourself may be more obvious than you think.22:14 – Retention connects the patient experience and the health of the business in a way practice owners cannot afford to overlook.27:05 - Getting more leads means little if they are not the right people for your practice. Dr. Malcolm speaks with James Chester from Success Partner Blue Rhino AI about a data-driven approach to chiropractic marketing that focuses on qualified prospects, continuously optimized creative, and smarter ad spend to help practices attract patients who are more likely to show up, convert, and stay.Resources MentionedLearn more about the TRP Remarkable Practice Immersion Oct 1 - 3, 2026 in National Harbor, MD and Nov 13 - 14, 2026 in Adelaide, AUS - https://theremarkablepractice.com/upcoming-events/   For more information about Blue Rhino please visit: https://www.bluerhinoai.com/ To schedule a Strategy Session with Dr Lona: https://go.oncehub.com/DrLonaBuildPodcastTo schedule a Strategy Session with Dr Bobby: https://go.oncehub.com/DrBobbyBuildPodcastLearn more about the Remarkable CEO Podcast: https://theremarkablepractice.com/podcast

What if the life you actually want requires you to stop trying to be liked?In this episode, Lacy and Jessica break down what we're all getting wrong about authenticity, and why it's one of the most important parts of manifesting a life you love. They talk about the difference between living as your real self vs. performing "realness" to get validation and approval, and how the interests you had before you learned to fit in hold clues to who you really are.They also get candid about the hard parts of being seen: triggering people, being misunderstood, feeling lonely in between who you were and who you're becoming, and letting go of the need to prove you're good enough.This is your sign to reflect and refine. Stop looking outside yourself for your identity. Disconnect from the noise and become the author of your own story. The things you actually want in life aren't found by copying someone else's path—they show up when you have the courage to follow your own.Full show notes → https://tobemagnetic.com/expanded-podcast Resources:The TBM App Has Upleveled!Our app just got a major upgrade to make your manifestation practice more personalized, guided, and easy to follow.

What can the science of chiropractic reveal that your clinical experience may already be showing you? Research, clinical evidence, and nervous system science can give chiropractors stronger ways to understand outcomes, communicate care, and connect what they see in practice with the philosophy behind it. Dr. Lona explores how to translate complex science into language patients can actually understand, while encouraging chiropractors to stay curious, recognize patterns, and contribute case reports or clinical observations that can help move the profession forward.Key Highlights02:00 – How publishing chiropractic research changed the way Dr. Lona thinks about the science behind what she sees in practice.04:10 – A different way to read research by looking at new information through the lens of chiropractic philosophy.06:18 – Science is more than research papers; curiosity, pattern recognition, and clinical observation all matter.09:02 – The kinds of questions chiropractors could be asking when clinical outcomes point toward areas worth studying more deeply.11:52 – Turning research into simple, useful language that helps patients better understand their care.14:43 – Where the science, philosophy, and art of chiropractic start to come back together in the way you communicate an adjustment.16:35 – Why the transformations happening in your own practice may be worth documenting through case reports or publication.19:01 – A practical challenge to use the science of chiropractic more intentionally, communicate it more clearly, and contribute to the profession where you can.19:57 - The right technology should give chiropractors more time to care for people, not more work to manage. Dr. Pete speaks with Gabriel Doty from Success Partner ChiroHD about building smarter practice management software that streamlines workflows, improves efficiency, embraces meaningful AI innovation, and helps chiropractic practices scale with confidence while preparing for long-term success.

The business wasn't missing ambition. It was missing the structure to sustain it. What happens when a rapidly growing business starts demanding more from its founder than one person can give? In this case study, Dr. Jesse Jacobs of Freeform Chiropractic shares how he transformed a fast-growing franchise organization from founder-dependent momentum into a scalable enterprise built on accountability, structure, and leadership. As Free Form Chiropractic expanded from seven locations to a growing multi-unit organization, Jesse discovered that the next stage of growth required more than vision. It demanded operational discipline, clear systems, and a business that could thrive without depending on him to save the day. The result wasn't just a stronger company. It gave him more freedom with his family, greater confidence as a CEO, and a clearer path toward the future he set out to build. In This Case Study You Will: Follow how Free Form Chiropractic evolved from founder-driven growth to a business built for long-term scale. Discover why accountability and organizational clarity became the missing pieces behind rapid expansion. Hear what changed when Jesse stopped white-knighting every challenge and stepped fully into the CEO role. Explore how leadership systems created greater freedom both inside the business and at home. Take away the framework that helped transform growth into durability and optionality. Episode Highlights 01:33 – A fast-growing franchise looked successful on paper, but behind the scenes the founder was carrying far more than the business could sustainably demand. 02:56 – The realization wasn't knowing exactly what needed to change. It was recognizing that growth had exposed problems that couldn't be solved alone. 03:56 – Personal vision became the foundation for business vision, creating clarity that reached far beyond opening more locations. 05:48 – Looking beyond the bank account and into meaningful business metrics transformed how every location was measured and improved. 07:12 – Standards stopped drifting once accountability and clear ownership became part of the organization's operating rhythm. 08:55 – Building a world-class team started with a simple commitment: only world-class people would shape the future of the company. 12:06 – The pursuit of freedom gave way to something even more valuable: building a business durable enough to create lasting optionality. 17:20 – Growth wasn't measured only by opening more locations but by creating businesses that could thrive without depending on the founder. 20:58 – Reclaiming intentional time with family became one of the clearest signs that the business was finally serving the life it was meant to support. 24:30 – The greatest breakthroughs didn't come from having all the answers, but from surrounding the business with people who understood the journey. 28:12 - Technology should make running a chiropractic practice easier, not more complicated. Dr. Bobby sits down with Sam Ogutucu from Success Partner Medic Cloud to explore how specialized IT support and in-house digital X-ray solutions help practices improve efficiency, enhance the patient experience, protect retention, and create stronger long-term profitability.

Chiropractic philosophy gives you the certainty to understand why you adjust, communicate that purpose clearly, and help patients understand why their care matters. Dr. Lona and Dr. Andrew Alekna explore how chiropractic philosophy shapes the way you practice, from understanding subluxation and developing certainty to improving patient communication and retention. They share how mentorship, continued study, and wrestling with your own beliefs can strengthen your conviction and help you communicate what makes chiropractic different. When you're clear on the philosophy behind your care, it becomes easier to show up with purpose, explain the value of the adjustment, and give patients a stronger reason to stay engaged in care. Key Highlights 01:52 – Where to start when you know how to adjust but still aren't completely clear on why you do what you do. 03:42 – Consider what chiropractic education could look like if philosophy were woven through the art, science, and business. 05:59 – Two chiropractors can perform a similar adjustment while approaching what they're doing from completely different places. 07:02 – The conversation around subluxation raises a bigger question about what actually makes chiropractic distinct. 09:37 – What can change in practice when you stop believing you're responsible for doing the healing. 11:01 – Dr. Lona shares the advice that pushed her to seek out chiropractors who could deepen her understanding and conviction. 13:14 – Dr. Andrew's path into chiropractic shows what can happen when the philosophy isn't communicated to the patient. 15:40 – When showing up starts feeling difficult, clarity around why you practice may be the piece worth examining. 17:35 – The material that gave Dr. Andrew an entirely different understanding of the profession he was already studying. 19:28 – A deeply personal experience with his father's health shaped the philosophy Dr. Andrew still carries into practice. 22:09 – A practical place to start if your certainty or conviction around chiropractic doesn't feel as strong as you'd like. 23:23 – Patient retention may reveal more about your communication of chiropractic than you realize. 25:43 – A different way to approach philosophical differences within the profession without working against each other. 27:31 – Consider how much opportunity exists when the goal becomes helping more people experience chiropractic rather than competing with other chiropractors.

Talent can build a busy practice, but talent alone cannot make it scalable, durable, or transferable. Talent alone will create a job. Dr. Pete and Dr. Stephen unpack what operational fitness really requires: clear systems, capable people, consistent training, and a patient journey that does not depend on the doctor carrying every detail. From processes and procedures to scripting and mastery, the path forward is a practice that becomes more predictable, more transferable, and far less dependent on one person while creating a stronger experience for both the team and the patients they serve. In This Episode You Will Discover: Why natural talent can become the hidden limitation inside a growing practice. The distinction between the clinical practice and the economic engine supporting it. Five operational systems that determine whether growth remains predictable. What stale, ignored, or poorly trained systems reveal about organizational health. The moment scripting stops feeling restrictive and becomes a source of freedom. Episode Highlights 03:58 - What changes when a practice is treated as something entirely different from the business behind it? 04:15 - Two sides of the same organization may be working toward very different outcomes. 05:10 - The very talent that creates early success can quietly become the thing preventing scale. 07:57 - At what point does a demanding job finally become a durable business? 09:59 - A missing system rarely looks like the real problem until the entire team starts feeling it. 16:11 - Why operational fitness can never become something a practice simply checks off and moves past. 17:33 - Three different roles compete for the doctor's attention, but only one should be in control at a time. 19:45 - What patients experience is only one layer of the system shaping their results. 22:24 - The path from winging it to mastery passes through a stage most doctors resist. 27:02 - The next level of operational fitness begins when systems, people, data, and automation start working together. 28:03 - Adding the right service can improve patient care while strengthening your practice. Dr. Eric welcomes the expertise of Dr. Dan RuitenBeek from Success Partner Shockwave Centers of America to discuss how regenerative shockwave therapy, staff training, and implementation support help chiropractors expand treatment options, retain more patients, and create new revenue opportunities.

The art of chiropractic is not something you finish learning once your technique looks good. It is built through the physical capacity to adjust for years, the precision to know where and how to deliver force, and the certainty and presence patients feel when your hands make contact. Dr. Lona and Dr. Andrew Alekna discuss what separates simply creating a cavitation from delivering an adjustment with intention, why mentorship and continued hands-on training matter, and how caring for your own body becomes part of caring for your patients. They also explore the less technical side of the art: trusting your analysis, getting out of your own head, staying present at the table, and creating enough playfulness and human connection that practice still has energy. Developing all of these pieces allows the adjustment to become more than a mechanical skill and gives you a better chance of delivering great care without sacrificing your body or your enjoyment of practice. Key Highlights 02:36 – The physical side of the art that becomes increasingly important if you want a long adjusting career. 04:26 – What higher patient volume can reveal about the way you train and care for your own body. 08:01 – A practical way to choose adjusting mentors when your size or body type changes how you deliver force. 09:17 – The experience that challenged Andrew's assumption that effective adjusting requires physical size. 11:09 – The distinction between creating a cavitation and actually approaching an adjustment with a different intention. 12:11 – Where technique begins to shift from a mechanical process into something far more intuitive. 14:07 – Consider what happens to the adjustment when your mind is somewhere other than the patient in front of you. 15:33 – The role certainty and repetition play when an experienced doctor seems to know exactly where to adjust. 17:27 – A young doctor's fear raises an important question about where technique ends and trust begins. 20:54 – Why taking yourself less seriously may have more to do with the art of chiropractic than you realize. 26:39 - Financial systems can play a major role in both patient retention and long-term practice growth. Dr. Stephen speaks with Dr. Miles Bosman from Success Partner Cash Practice about creating compliant financial plans, simplifying recurring payments, and building systems that help patients stay committed to care while giving chiropractors greater financial stability and scalability.

The businesses that create the greatest impact aren't built by choosing between principle and innovation. They're built by leaders who know how to unite conviction, vision, and complementary strengths into something far greater than either could accomplish alone. Dr. Pete sits down with Dr. Chad Glines and Dr. Caleb Braddock to unpack how two chiropractors with completely different philosophies discovered that their greatest strengths weren't competing but complementary. What started as a shared desire to help patients avoid unnecessary spine surgery has grown into one of the fastest-scaling chiropractic organizations in the profession. Along the way, they reveal hard-earned lessons about vision, scaling, leadership, innovation, and why protecting quality must always come before pursuing growth. In This Episode You Will Discover: How two completely different approaches became the foundation for extraordinary growth.  The leadership decision that separates businesses that scale from those that stall.  Why protecting quality becomes even more important as momentum accelerates.  A simple mindset shift that makes growth challenges feel like opportunities instead of obstacles.  The unexpected connection between a compelling vision and attracting world-class people.   Episode Highlights 04:33 - Two completely different career paths unexpectedly become the foundation for something neither could have built alone. 05:14 - An overlooked group of patients exposes an opportunity hiding in plain sight. 06:50 - One leadership principle quietly explains why specialization doesn't have to limit impact. 10:08 - A deeply personal story transforms a clinical focus into a lifelong mission. 15:07 - Three simple questions begin reshaping the way every CEO should think about vision. 18:35 - An unexpected analogy reveals why great leaders rarely see the entire journey from the beginning. 21:26 - One question about scaling uncovers what really fuels extraordinary growth. 23:26 - The easiest part of growing the business turns out not to be the one anyone expected. 26:27 - A leadership philosophy borrowed from mentorship changes the trajectory of an entire organization. 28:34 - The biggest surprise about scaling has nothing to do with opening more locations. 33:01 - A final leadership lesson reframes every challenge that comes with growth. 38:36 - Sustainable weight loss requires more than a diet. It requires the right system and support. Dr. Chris welcomes Dr. Roger Sahoury from Success Partner SprintSet to explore how chiropractors can expand their impact with a guided weight-loss program that attracts new patients, supports lasting lifestyle change, and creates a scalable revenue stream through coaching, technology, and proven business systems.

One year ago, I found myself handcuffed in the back of a cop car.Today, I'm celebrating one year sober.But my decision to stop drinking wasn't really about alcohol being this huge problem in my life. The truth is, I had known for a while that drinking just wasn't aligned for me anymore.Even a couple of drinks would mess with my sleep, affect my energy, and leave me feeling like...why am I still choosing this when I know I don't even really want it? And alcohol wasn't the only thing.There were other choices I was making that I knew weren't aligned with my values or the person I wanted to be. My intuition was telling me that pretty freaking clearly—and I wasn't listening.Then, just DAYS before I got arrested, I had one of the clearest intuitive hits I've ever experienced: if you keep doing what you're doing, there are going to be consequences. And those consequences are going to be a DUI.A few days later, I saw red and blue lights in my rearview mirror.Eventually, I was sitting handcuffed in the back of a cop car thinking, Court...you knew. That night became a turning point for me. I decided I was done drinking alcohol.And now, one year into my sobriety journey, I can see that this experience was about SO much more than becoming alcohol-free.It was about learning to listen to myself.Trusting my intuition.Recognizing when something isn't aligned with my values—and actually being willing to make a different choice.In this episode of Boldly Alive, I'm sharing the story of why I stopped drinking, what my first year without alcohol has taught me, and the wake-up call that changed the way I think about intuition, alignment, and the choices we make every single day. If you've ever had that feeling deep down that something in your life just isn't right for you anymore, this episode is for you.Because sometimes we already freaking know.We just have to be willing to listen.Come hang with me: https://www.instagram.com/boldlyalivecourt

Becoming a better chiropractor means knowing which part of your practice needs more of your attention—the art, science, philosophy, or business. Dr. Lona and Dr. Andrew Alekna break down these four interconnected pillars and explore what happens when one develops faster than the others. Andrew shares why adjusting came naturally to him while business required intentional work, systems, coaching, and mentorship. They also look at the role philosophy plays in developing certainty, why understanding the science is different from being able to communicate it, and how continued training strengthens what happens both at the table and throughout the practice. Rather than assuming experience will automatically make you better, this conversation offers a practical way to audit where you are today. Identify the pillar that feels least developed, find people who are already strong there, and deliberately build the skills needed to create a practice that is both deeply chiropractic and capable of growing. Key Highlights 02:08 – Meet the four areas worth continually developing if you want to become a more complete chiropractor. 03:00 – Consider what gets lost when practice growth moves faster than your development in the fundamentals of chiropractic. 05:27 – Andrew's adjusting journey offers a useful look at natural ability versus the skills that still require years of refinement. 07:08 – Explore the philosophical journey that can take you from knowing chiropractic works to developing certainty in the way you personally practice. 09:34 – Athleticism may offer an unexpected advantage when developing the precision, speed, and body awareness required for adjusting. 12:26 – Andrew reveals the pillar that challenged him most—and the limitation he discovered when “winging it” was no longer enough. 14:21 – A useful place to look when chiropractic school hasn't prepared you for the realities of running a practice. 15:20 – “Success leaves clues” becomes a practical strategy for strengthening the areas where you know you're falling short. 16:29 – Try looking at these four pillars as a foundation before focusing on everything you want to build on top of them. 17:28 – Applying a familiar chiropractic principle to your business may change the way you look at stalled practice growth. 18:43 – Andrew's weakest area eventually became one of the most systematized parts of his practice. 20:31 – Patient communication adds another dimension to the art of chiropractic that technical knowledge alone doesn't teach. 22:04 – Use four practical audit points to identify where your art, philosophy, science, or business needs more work. 24:03 - Bringing X-ray imaging in-house can improve more than convenience. It can strengthen the entire patient care pathway. Dr. Timay speaks with John Conidi from Success Partner Next Healthcare about radiology reporting, reducing medico-legal risk, improving access to follow-up imaging, and helping Australian chiropractors deliver more timely care while creating additional value within their practices.

The strongest businesses aren't built by finding a better marketing tactic. They're built by becoming fit enough to thrive no matter how the marketplace changes. Dr. Stephen and Dr. Pete introduce a powerful fitness analogy that reveals why so many chiropractors have become overdependent on digital marketing while neglecting the foundational systems that create sustainable growth. By rethinking marketing through the lens of balance, resilience, and stewardship, they offer a practical framework for building a practice that's stronger, more adaptable, and far less vulnerable to changing algorithms or market conditions.  In This Episode You Will Discover: Why one overlooked weakness may be quietly limiting the growth of an otherwise successful practice.  A fitness analogy that completely changes how marketing should be evaluated.  The hidden cost of relying too heavily on one source of new patients.  A simple mindset shift that turns marketing from reactive to resilient.  How stronger marketing systems create greater stability, impact, and long-term growth. Episode Highlights 01:18 - A bigger mission sets up a conversation about finding the weak spots that may be limiting practice growth. 03:04 - Marketing gets reframed as an extension of mission, service, and the responsibility to reach more people. 04:19 - The changing digital marketing landscape reveals why relying too heavily on one source of new patients can leave a practice vulnerable. 05:51 - Internal, external, and digital marketing come together as three distinct areas that need strength to create a more resilient growth strategy. 06:41 - The fitness analogy makes it easier to identify which part of a practice's marketing may be getting overtrained while another is being neglected. 08:03 - A real-world lesson in physical fitness shows what can happen when the strength required to perform consistently begins to disappear. 11:21 - The 1/3, 1/3, 1/3 framework offers a practical benchmark for evaluating the balance between internal, external, and digital marketing. 15:03 - Business fitness requires ongoing investment, and one exercise challenges where marketing time, energy, focus, and money are currently going. 17:05 - The hidden cost of missed referrals and patient churn changes the conversation around investing more heavily in internal marketing. 19:30 - External marketing brings the focus back to building relationships in the community and making sure people know who the practice is, what it does, and why it does it. 21:20 - The “power of one” creates a manageable way to strengthen each area of marketing without overwhelming the team. 22:23 - Breaking an unhealthy dependence on digital marketing starts with recognizing what the practice can control and where it has the greatest influence. 25:05 - Nadine Brunet from Success Partner Platinum Systems joins Dr. Chris to discuss the launch of Platinum Cloud, an AI-powered chiropractic software platform built to simplify workflows, reduce administrative tasks, and improve efficiency for practices. They explore agentic AI, integrated tools, seamless onboarding, and how Platinum Systems is helping chiropractors future-proof their clinics with smarter technology.   Resources Mentioned To learn more about the REM CEO Program, please visit:  http://www.theremarkablepractice.com/rem-ceo For more information about Platinum please visit: https://www.platinumsystem.com/ Book a Strategy Session with Dr. Pete - https://go.oncehub.com/PodcastPC Prefer to watch?

Building a family chiropractic practice starts with the doctor's certainty about why children belong under care. Dr. Lona and Dr. Andrew Alekna explore how personal conviction, pediatric adjusting skills, patient education, and the physical environment of the practice all influence whether families naturally see chiropractic as part of their children's health. They unpack what changes when doctors become more confident caring for kids, learn to communicate the body's capacity to adapt and heal, and make the practice visibly welcoming to families. When your philosophy, communication, clinical confidence, and patient experience all tell the same story, parents are more likely to understand why pediatric care belongs in the practice and feel comfortable bringing their children in. Key Highlights 02:07 – A real-life example Dr. Andrew uses to open conversations with parents about chiropractic care for their children. 04:10 – Seeing health through your own children can deepen the way you communicate chiropractic philosophy to other parents. 07:08 – A different way to think about symptoms when the body is actively trying to adapt and heal. 10:31 – The question every doctor should ask about whether their own health choices match what they teach patients. 11:48 – Helping children develop a healthier relationship with their bodies may begin with the language they hear at home. 14:25 – Watch what happens when pediatric care becomes visible enough in the practice that adult patients start asking questions on their own. 15:22 – Before trying to attract more kids, there is one level of certainty the doctor has to develop first. 16:09 – Clinical confidence with children can be built, and there are practical ways to start strengthening that skill set. 19:46 – Once the doctor is ready, the next step is making the practice feel unmistakably welcoming to families. 23:14 – Small changes in playfulness, layout, visuals, and adjusting style can completely change how children experience the office. 25:48 - A thriving practice deserves a financial strategy to match. Dr. Andrew welcomes Bel Gibbons from Success Partner Investorus Strategists to share how personalized financial planning, investment strategies, and long-term wealth creation help chiropractors turn today's success into tomorrow's legacy.

Everyone wants a bigger Vision Story of Success, but very few people have a decision-making framework strong enough to protect it. Dr. Stephen and Dr. Pete unpack why core values are the invisible force behind sustainable growth, resilient leadership, healthy relationships, and thriving businesses. Through practical frameworks and deeply personal stories, they reveal how alignment between values, vision, and daily behavior becomes the difference between burnout and peace, between chasing success and actually living it.  If success has ever felt harder than it should, the answer may not be working harder, but getting clearer about what truly matters.  This episode will help you get there. In This Episode You Will Discover: Why some of the biggest business struggles are actually values problems in disguise.  The surprising reason highly successful leaders walk away from opportunities others would chase.  A simple framework that exposes whether daily decisions are building success or quietly working against it.  The hidden difference between having values and actually living by them.  How one deeply personal story reveals the real cost of making decisions that conflict with what matters most. Episode Highlights 01:15 - Core values can shape wealth far beyond finances, influencing business, health, marriage, family, and everyday life. 03:11 - Meaningful growth requires values strong enough to build resilience, character, and leadership capacity. 04:39 - A simple distinction reveals whether core values are guiding the business or merely decorating the wall. 08:04 - Sustainable success looks very different from a short burst of growth followed by exhaustion and burnout. 09:14 - The relationship between core values, vision, and behavior determines whether a leader is truly operating in alignment. 11:47 - Calendars, spending habits, attention, and energy often reveal personal values more clearly than words do. 13:55 - Misalignment between values and daily behavior creates stress, friction, and unnecessary difficulty. 16:49 - Burnout may be signaling something deeper than workload alone. 19:12 - Leaders can use core values as a practical standard for personal accountability, hiring, and team culture. 23:40 - One framework helps organize aligned values across life, marriage, parenting, finances, and business. 27:23 - A major personal dream becomes a real-world lesson in using values to make difficult decisions. 31:23 - Saying no to the wrong opportunity can protect freedom, peace of mind, and long-term success. 33:02 - The right technology should give chiropractors more time to care for people, not more work to manage. Dr. Pete speaks with Gabriel Doty from Success Partner ChiroHD about building smarter practice management software that streamlines workflows, improves efficiency, embraces meaningful AI innovation, and helps chiropractic practices scale with confidence while preparing for long-term success.   Resources Mentioned To learn more about the REM CEO Program, please visit:  http://www.theremarkablepractice.com/rem-ceo For more information about ChiroHD visit: https://content.chirohd.com/remarkable-practice Book a Strategy Session with Dr. Pete - https://go.oncehub.com/PodcastPC Prefer to watch?

The best leaders aren't the ones their teams can't live without. They're the ones who've built systems, communication, and trust that allow the practice to thrive even when they're away. Dr. Lona and Dr. Andrew Alekna explore what happens after you've hired the right people. They discuss why communication, accountability, and consistent leadership rhythms determine whether a team becomes independent or remains dependent on the practice owner. Through personal stories and practical examples, they unpack the mindset shifts required to let go of control, address difficult conversations early, and create an environment where both people and the practice continue to grow. If you've ever struggled to delegate, hesitated to hold your team accountable, or found yourself becoming the bottleneck in your own practice, this conversation offers practical leadership principles for building a stronger team—and a practice that doesn't rely on you for every decision. Key Highlights 03:47 – A clearer way to measure whether your practice can truly operate without you. 05:21 – The leadership shift that helps you support team growth without letting your ego get in the way. 07:24 – Where to look first when a team member is missing expectations or falling short on a KPI. 09:20 – Keeping the mission at the center of difficult team conversations. 10:59 – Why early accountability can be one of the most supportive things you offer your team. 12:28 – Choosing which hard conversation to have now before the problem becomes harder to fix. 14:21 – Recognizing whether you tend to micromanage, avoid conflict, or move between both. 15:11 – A practical leadership process for delegating without losing visibility or control. 16:48 – Using practice numbers to catch problems before they become obvious in the day-to-day. 18:12 – The communication rhythms that create more clarity, engagement, and freedom across the team. 20:15 – Creating enough growth inside the practice to keep strong team members challenged and engaged. 23:42 – Two practical places to begin when communication or accountability has started to slip. 24:31 - Sustainable weight loss requires more than a diet. It requires the right system and support. Dr. Chris welcomes Dr. Roger Sahoury from Success Partner SprintSet to explore how chiropractors can expand their impact with a guided weight-loss program that attracts new patients, supports lasting lifestyle change, and creates a scalable revenue stream through coaching, technology, and proven business systems.

Sometimes the reason patients keep losing their progress isn't because the adjustment was ineffective, but because an invisible stressor begins working against it the moment they leave the office. Dr. Malcolm is joined by Dr. Andrew Powell of Better Balance Orthotics to share the journey that led him from rejecting traditional orthotics to embracing an entirely different neurological approach that challenges conventional thinking about posture, spinal health, and rehabilitation. Through decades of clinical observation, research, and objective measurement, he explains how stimulating the feet instead of supporting them may help patients hold adjustments longer while creating better clinical outcomes and stronger practice systems. The conversation ultimately reveals why addressing one overlooked source of stress can change both the patient experience and the economics of a chiropractic practice. In this Episode You Will Discover: Why one everyday habit may be quietly undoing clinical progress between every adjustment.  The surprising story behind a product that almost disappeared before reaching practitioners around the world.  A completely different way of thinking about orthotics that challenges decades of conventional practice.  How one overlooked assessment can reshape both patient outcomes and practice systems. The connection between better clinical certainty and an unexpected opportunity for sustainable practice growth.   Episode Highlights 01:31 - A lifelong physical struggle becomes the starting point for a completely different way of thinking about the nervous system. 03:19 - One mentor's recommendation leads to an overlooked idea that had been hiding in plain sight. 05:21 - A passing of the torch forces an unexpected decision about responsibility, purpose, and impact. 08:19 - The accepted explanation for scoliosis gets challenged by a question that goes one level deeper. 12:22 - A fundamental distinction between support and stimulation changes the entire orthotics conversation. 19:10 - One provocative idea raises the possibility that the problem may have started long before symptoms appeared. 22:37 - Objective testing begins answering whether patients are truly holding their adjustments better. 26:38 - A realization about day-one care reshapes the entire patient assessment and recommendation process. 29:43 - The barriers that normally complicate implementation turn out to be surprisingly small. 32:25 - An immediate patient reaction reveals why experience can be more persuasive than explanation. 35:12 - Dr. Eric sits down with Jeff Van Kampen from Success Partner Clinic Growth Accelerator to explore how chiropractic practices are using Meta ads, data tracking, and lead qualification systems to create more predictable patient growth.

Referrals don't happen by accident. They're cultivated through consistent conversations, intentional systems, and genuine community connections. Dr. Lona and Dr. Rachel Hovey discuss why referral growth is still one of the most underutilized and effective practice-building strategies, despite the attention given to newer marketing tactics. They share practical systems for cultivating patient referrals, building meaningful community partnerships, training teams to recognize referral opportunities, and creating consistent follow-up processes that keep practices visible and top of mind. Rather than treating referrals as something that simply happens, this episode encourages practice owners to intentionally build a referral culture that extends from the adjusting table into the community, creating sustainable growth rooted in trust and genuine relationships.   Key Highlights 01:29 – Discover why relationships still create stronger long-term practice growth than the latest marketing trends. 02:23 – Learn to spot the everyday patient comments that can become real referral opportunities. 04:23 – A more natural approach to networking that removes the pressure to promote yourself. 06:11 – Inside Dr. Rachel's simple system for keeping community connections organized and active. 07:30 – Defining your ideal patient can point you toward better networking opportunities. 09:15 – Strong referral partnerships often begin long before anyone exchanges a referral. 11:13 – See how the right local partnerships can make your practice a trusted community resource. 13:07 – Simple ways to thank referral partners and strengthen those relationships over time. 15:33 – Reframing the referral conversation so it feels helpful rather than uncomfortable. 17:40 – Table talk, whiteboards, and repeated education may be quietly driving your best referrals. 19:23 – Three practical steps for strengthening referral systems inside the practice and throughout the community. 20:29 - Adding the right service can improve patient care while strengthening your practice.

We have been taught that success comes from pushing harder, sacrificing more, and proving our worth through exhaustion. But your life was never meant to be lived in a constant state of struggle. In this episode of Ancient Wisdom Today, Shaman Durek explores what it truly means to move beyond the grind and begin living in alignment. This is not about abandoning ambition or refusing to work hard. It is about changing the energy from which you create. When your actions come from self-love, truth, and appreciation, your work becomes more powerful because you are no longer depleting yourself to produce results. Are you nurturing the person who carries your dreams? Are you caring for your body, spirit, and emotional energy with the same devotion you give to everyone and everything around you? True alignment begins when you stop forcing yourself forward and start listening inward. When you honor your needs, appreciate what you do, and show up for yourself with love, you create from wholeness rather than pressure. You do not have to destroy yourself to build a meaningful life. You can work with purpose, nurture your energy, and move forward in the truth of who you are.

Meetings don't consume time. They create leverage. The moment a business begins to grow, the doctor faces a choice: remain the person solving every problem or become the leader who develops people capable of solving them. That transition rarely happens by accident, and it often reveals itself in the way meetings are run.  In this episode, Dr. Stephen and Dr. Pete unpack the Millionaire Meeting Framework, a seven-step process designed to transform meetings from routine conversations into high-leverage opportunities for alignment, accountability, leadership development, and execution. From creating clarity around PRIORITY to empowering team members to think critically and bring solutions instead of problems, this episode provides a practical roadmap for moving beyond owner-operator thinking and building a business that can grow through people rather than depend on them.In This Episode You Will Discover:  Why the most valuable meetings often start with a question most leaders skip  The hidden reason smart teams continue solving the wrong problems  A framework that develops leaders instead of creating more dependence  How one simple question can completely change the quality of team conversations  The difference between a meeting that consumes time and one that creates leverage   Episode Highlights 02:10 - Meetings don't consume time. They create leverage, and the best leaders know how to multiply their impact through them.  05:17 - The fastest leaders aren't the ones who rush meetings. They're the ones who bring a framework.  07:14 - Question 1: How are you doing? A one-minute check-in sets the tone before the business begins.  08:20 - Question 2: What is our priority? Every great meeting starts by identifying the one constraint that matters most.  11:28 - Question 3: What is the objective of this meeting? Clarify the problem before trying to solve it.  15:08 - Question 4: What is your 1-3-1? Great leaders don't collect problems. They develop critical thinkers.  18:41 - Question 5: How can I help you? Support replaces rescue when a leader chooses coaching over taking ownership of every task.  20:47 - Question 6: Do we have a solution? Alignment happens when expectations become clear agreements.  21:02 - Question 7: What is your takeaway? Every meeting ends with do what, by whom, and by when. 21:45 - Imaging technology is evolving rapidly, and chiropractors have more opportunities than ever to improve efficiency and patient care.

The ceiling wasn't clinical ability, passion or effort…It was the business model.  What happens when two busy practice owners realize they've both become the biggest obstacle to their own growth? In this case study, Dr. Aaron Collins and Dr. Nathan Clem share how two thriving but plateaued practices became one scalable business by replacing personality-driven growth with leadership, systems, and shared vision.  After spending 15 years running independent practices, they partnered together, embraced the Chiropractic Operating System, nearly doubled their business with a smaller team, and created more freedom for both their families and their future. Their story proves that sustainable growth isn't about working harder. It's about building a business that can grow beyond the people who started it.   In This Case Study you will: See how two successful practices broke through years of stagnation by joining forces instead of continuing to grow alone.  Discover why replacing personality-driven leadership with systems became the turning point for sustainable growth.  Follow the evolution from owner/operators to CEOs who built a business instead of simply running one.  Hear what changed after implementing a partnership built on complementary strengths rather than overlapping responsibilities.  Gain insight into how doubling the business with a smaller team created greater freedom, profitability, and impact. Episode Highlights 03:14 - Two successful practices had both reached the same frustrating ceiling, proving that growth can stall even when a business appears successful. 04:13 - A New Year's Eve conversation between longtime friends became the unexpected beginning of a completely new business vision. 08:14 - The realization that a personality-driven practice could never outgrow the person leading it changed everything. 09:37 - One powerful distinction reframed growth forever: the greatest strength of a leader can eventually become the greatest weakness of the organization. 10:36 - Systems didn't replace leadership. They created the structure that allowed everyone on the team to perform at a higher level. 11:09 - Year after year, disciplined execution transformed one partnership into a business approaching twice its original size. 13:49 - Greater profitability became the vehicle for something even more valuable: more freedom, fewer clinical days, and a business designed around life. 17:41 - The biggest identity shift wasn't becoming a better clinician. It was letting go of being the center of the business. 21:19 - Building a "stop doing" list became just as important as building a to-do list for sustainable growth. 23:55 - The future belongs to practices that learn to build remarkable businesses, not just deliver remarkable care. 26:05 - A thriving practice deserves a financial strategy to match. Dr. Andrew welcomes Bel Gibbons from Success Partner Investorus Strategists to share how personalized financial planning, investment strategies, and long-term wealth creation help chiropractors turn today's success into tomorrow's legacy.   Resources Mentioned To learn more about the REM CEO Program, please visit:  http://www.theremarkablepractice.com/rem-ceo For more information about Investorus please visit: https://investorus.com.au  Book a Strategy Session with Dr. Pete - https://go.oncehub.com/PodcastPC Prefer to watch?

Leadership isn't tested when everything is going well. It's revealed when the team, culture, or vision begins to drift. Dr. Lona and Dr. Andrew Alekna explore why hiring the right people starts long before an interview and why practices with strong cultures consistently attract, develop, and retain stronger team members. Through candid stories of hiring mistakes, difficult leadership lessons, and hard conversations, they explain that protecting a practice's mission, vision, and core values is ultimately the responsibility of the doctor. Rather than viewing hiring as a staffing problem, this episode reframes it as a leadership discipline where clear expectations, intentional culture, and consistent accountability create a team capable of supporting long-term practice growth. Key Highlights 01:13 – Why hiring challenges often reveal leadership opportunities rather than staffing problems. 04:14 – The overlooked responsibility every practice owner has in shaping culture before making the next hire. 05:35 – Why core values become the filter for every hiring and leadership decision. 07:24 – The interview answer that immediately revealed someone wasn't the right fit. 10:40 – What happened when one difficult conversation allowed the right outcome for everyone involved. 13:12 – The leadership lesson that only became clear after the wrong person left the team. 17:29 – Why addressing small shifts in culture early prevents much bigger problems later. 18:13 – The difference between supporting team members through life and allowing personal challenges to shape the practice environment. 21:27 – Why defining the role before posting the job dramatically improves hiring decisions. 23:00 – The practical hiring process that helps identify the right person before extending an offer. 26:50 - Technology should make running a chiropractic practice easier, not more complicated. Dr. Bobby sits down with Sam Ogutucu from Success Partner Medic Cloud to explore how specialized IT support and in-house digital X-ray solutions help practices improve efficiency, enhance the patient experience, protect retention, and create stronger long-term profitability.   Resources Mentioned For more information about Medic Cloud please visit: https://mediccloud.com.au To schedule a Strategy Session with Dr Lona: https://go.oncehub.com/DrLonaBuildPodcast To schedule a Strategy Session with Dr Bobby: https://go.oncehub.com/DrBobbyBuildPodcast Learn more about the Remarkable CEO Podcast: https://theremarkablepractice.com/podcast

What if patients aren't saying no because of the price, but because they haven't experienced the value?  Many doctors struggle with pricing because they're viewing it through the lens of cost rather than impact.  In this episode, Dr. Stephen and Dr. Pete unpack why experience and outcomes are the two forces that drive value, how pricing communicates value before a patient ever starts care, and why a remarkable patient experience creates opportunities that discounting never will.  From limiting beliefs around money to real-world examples of luxury purchases, restaurants, and patient care, this conversation challenges practice owners to rethink what they're actually selling and how that influences every pricing decision they make. The result is a powerful shift from defending fees to creating value that patients are happy to invest in.   In This Episode You Will Discover: Why the biggest pricing problem in most practices starts long before the report of findings  A powerful distinction between what patients pay for and what they actually value The hidden danger of building a business model around assumptions about what people can afford  How one bad experience can erase an otherwise exceptional outcome  What it really means to become the practice everyone in town talks about   Episode Highlights 02:57 - What if the biggest obstacle to raising prices has nothing to do with your patients?  03:38 - How do you put a price on changing the trajectory of someone's life?  04:21 - The people most doctors think are broke may actually have a completely different problem.  04:54 - Why working harder can never fix a broken business model.  05:19 - The difference between something that costs less and something that's actually worth more.  07:13 - What changes when a doctor becomes fully convinced of the value they provide?  08:15 - Patients don't always make decisions based on price, but they always make them based on value.  09:34 - Why higher prices often create a stronger perception of quality before a word is spoken.  11:01 - What are patients really buying when they choose a practice?  14:07 - How quickly can one interaction convince someone they're in the right place?  17:30 - One bad experience was enough to erase everything that went right.  19:02 - Every patient is making a value calculation, whether they realize it or not.  19:59 - Remarkable isn't a marketing term. It's a standard.  21:51 - What are patients talking about when they leave your office?  24:23 - Were they paying for breakfast, or were they paying for something else entirely? 25:04 - Dan Anticich from Success Partner Twoconnect, joins Dr. Andrew to discuss how chiropractic practices can improve lead conversion, patient reactivation, and operational efficiency through dedicated offshore support. They explore how virtual team members help practices protect marketing investments, strengthen patient communication, reduce administrative workload, and create scalable systems that support sustainable growth.   Resources Mentioned To learn more about the REM CEO Program, please visit:  http://www.theremarkablepractice.com/rem-ceo For more information about Two Connect please visit: https://twoconnect.com.au/  Book a Strategy Session with Dr. Pete - https://go.oncehub.com/PodcastPC Prefer to watch?

Some practices struggle during periods of uncertainty while others become an anchor their communities trust because they never question the value they deliver. Dr. Lona and Dr. Andrew Alekna explore why certainty in chiropractic is built long before economic downturns or personal crises arrive, and why patients continue investing in care when they fully understand its value. The conversation challenges doctors to examine whether hesitation around fees, retention, or recommendations reflects a communication problem rather than a financial one, emphasizing that great adjustments, thorough report of findings, consistent patient education, and authentic connection all contribute to perceived value. When doctors confidently communicate what chiropractic truly offers and continually refine both their hands and their message, practices become more resilient, patients remain committed through uncertainty, and care becomes something people prioritize rather than postpone. Key Highlights 01:16 – Why rising fuel prices reveal something every practice owner should understand about patient value. 07:23 – What became clear during COVID about the practices that continued to grow while others struggled. 10:58 – The overlooked form of value patients often receive before an adjustment is ever delivered. 14:33 – Why patient education determines whether people view care as essential or optional. 15:58 – The difference between providing services and delivering an adjustment patients genuinely recognize. 17:18 – Why confidence in your hands directly influences confidence in your recommendations. 18:08 – A closer look at the hidden value contained in an exceptional Day One and Report of Findings. 19:13 – What changes when doctors begin viewing care as preventing future health costs instead of treating current symptoms. 20:23 – Why affordability is often a perception problem rather than a pricing problem. 22:58 – The conversation around certainty that ultimately shapes patient trust, retention, and long-term practice stability. 26:51 - Our feet play a far greater role in nervous system function than most chiropractors realize.

What if the biggest barrier to patient retention isn't your care, but the time it takes patients to get answers?  Today's patient wants answers fast.  Today's Chiropractor wants to increase speed, quality of care - and compensation for all of the above.  Technology is the answer.  As patient expectations continue to accelerate, practices that can provide immediate clarity, faster care pathways, and greater certainty create a significant advantage. Dr. Timay sits down with John Conidi from Next Healthcare to explore how in-house radiology helps reduce patient drop-off, improve retention, mitigate medico-legal risk, and create new revenue opportunities for the practice. The conversation unpacks the financial realities of implementing imaging, the critical role of radiologist reporting in protecting both patients and providers, and how emerging AI technology may soon help identify urgent findings faster than ever before. The result is a compelling look at why imaging is becoming far more than a diagnostic tool. It's becoming a strategic driver of better patient experiences, stronger clinical outcomes, and sustainable practice growth.   In This Episode You Will Discover: Why a simple referral outside the practice may be costing far more patients than most realize  The overlooked medico-legal responsibility that comes with every image taken  A revenue opportunity hiding inside a service many practices already recommend  How reducing diagnostic delays can dramatically strengthen patient trust and retention  The emerging AI capability that could identify urgent cases before they reach the top of the reporting queue   Episode Highlights 02:04 - Why the speed of getting answers may matter just as much as the quality of care.  02:41 - A simple referral for imaging may be creating more patient drop-off than most practices realize.  03:37 - The path from diagnosis to care changes dramatically when answers happen immediately.  04:09 - Every X-ray captures more than the spine, creating a level of responsibility many practitioners never fully consider.  05:45 - What if radiology reporting could become a strategic asset instead of simply another expense?  08:24 - The strongest return on an X-ray machine may have less to do with reimbursement than with practice growth.  09:16 - Convenience isn't just good service anymore. It's becoming a competitive advantage.  10:40 - Removing barriers to advanced imaging could dramatically shorten the patient's journey to answers.  15:19 - What if months of waiting for an MRI could become a matter of days?  16:52 - The future of radiology may not be faster reports, but knowing which patients need attention first.  19:05 - One routine image uncovered something nobody expected and completely changed the care plan.  19:36 - Taking the image is only the beginning. The real responsibility starts with everything that comes after. 20:39 - Dan Anticich from Success Partner Twoconnect, joins Dr. Andrew to discuss how chiropractic practices can improve lead conversion, patient reactivation, and operational efficiency through dedicated offshore support. They explore how virtual team members help practices protect marketing investments, strengthen patient communication, reduce administrative workload, and create scalable systems that support sustainable growth.   Resources Mentioned To learn more about the REM CEO Program, please visit:  http://www.theremarkablepractice.com/rem-ceo For more information about Next Healthcare please visit: https://nexthc.com.au/   For more information about Two Connect please visit: https://twoconnect.com.au/ Book a Strategy Session with Dr. Pete - https://go.oncehub.com/PodcastPC Prefer to watch?

Practice growth rarely stalls because of a lack of skill. More often, it stalls because certainty hasn't caught up with ambition. Dr. Lona and Dr. Chris Grier unpack why certainty is the true foundation of sustainable practice growth. They explore the four pillars of certainty—clinical, philosophical, communication, and business acumen—and explain how each one shapes patient trust, leadership, decision-making, and practice culture. Through practical examples and personal experiences, they demonstrate that certainty is intentionally developed through observation, experience, and continual learning. They also explain why certainty is never something you permanently achieve. It must be continually strengthened through intentional growth, allowing chiropractors to lead with greater conviction, communicate with greater clarity, and build practices that continue to thrive year after year. Key Highlights 02:28 Why certainty is one of the greatest hurdles every young chiropractor must overcome before they can truly thrive. 03:48 Why certainty is the foundation of practice growth and why volume is built on conviction first. 05:08 What pressure reveals about your philosophy, your technique, and what really comes out when you're under stress. 06:23 The first two forms of certainty every chiropractor needs to develop and how they shape patient care. 09:23 The four pillars of certainty that influence your clinical decisions, communication, leadership, and business. 11:08 Why most chiropractors naturally develop one area of certainty while the others quietly limit their growth. 12:18 The three ways certainty is developed and how observation, experience, and study work together throughout your career. 15:08 Why your team's certainty determines how far your practice can grow. 16:28 Dr. Chris and Dr. Lona share where they lacked certainty early in practice and what helped them build it. 20:33 Why certainty requires continual investment and what happens when you stop intentionally strengthening it. 22:40 Better decisions start with better data. Dr. Stephen sits down with Dr. Josiah Fitzsimmons from Success Partner Lucro to discuss insights from the 2026 State of Chiropractic Report and how Lucro helps chiropractors benchmark performance, uncover hidden opportunities, and make data-driven decisions that improve profitability and long-term growth.

Many owners spend years building a successful practice only to discover they've built a business that still depends entirely on them. The result is a hidden ceiling on growth, freedom, and impact. Dr. Pete and Dr. Stephen challenge the conventional obsession with scalability and introduce a more powerful objective: durability. Through the concept of Week 13, they reveal how scheduled vacations become a leadership accelerator, a business stress test, and a catalyst for developing stronger teams, stronger systems, and greater trust. The payoff is a practice that continues to create value, serve patients, and grow even when the owner steps away.  The most expensive vacation is the one that you never take.  The second most expensive vacation is the one that you have to shut the practice down to take it.  Build DURABILITY into your practice so that you don't have to pay for your vacation twice.  Spend the money that you are going to lose.   In This Episode You Will Discover: Why taking time away may be the fastest path to building a stronger business A leadership challenge that exposes whether a practice is truly durable The hidden cost of becoming indispensable to patients and team members How a vacation can become a transformational opportunity for an associate doctor A simple framework that turns time away into a catalyst for growth Episode Highlights 02:59 - A surprisingly simple recommendation reveals whether a business is truly built for growth. 03:43 - The distinction between scalability and durability changes the way success should be measured. 04:44 - One overlooked business metric dramatically impacts long-term value and freedom. 06:17 - A concept called Week 13 challenges conventional thinking about productivity and success. 08:27 - The most effective growth strategy may look suspiciously like stepping away. 08:36 - A powerful question exposes what must be true for a business to thrive without its owner. 09:29 - The connection between personal energy and business performance becomes impossible to ignore. 10:49 - Patient behavior often reveals a leadership issue hiding beneath the surface. 15:06 - An uncomfortable contradiction challenges the way many health-focused professionals live their lives. 17:37 - A decision that feels expensive in the short term may create outsized returns everywhere else. 18:58 - One experience can accelerate an associate doctor's growth faster than months of training. 21:21 - A looming deadline creates the kind of urgency that leadership development requires. 22:38 - The difference between being away and truly disconnecting becomes crystal clear. 25:38 - Dr. Chris is joined by Success Partner, Dr. David Fletcher of CLA to explore how neurocentric scanning technology transforms chiropractic communication and practice growth. They discuss using objective nervous system data to improve retention, scale with team leverage, increase PVA, and strengthen certainty in care planning. CLA's technology enhances attraction, conversion, collections, and long-term scalability.

You can spend years improving your business while unintentionally drifting away from the conviction that built it. Dr. Lona and Dr. Andrew Alekna explore why philosophy, continual learning, and investing in experiences that challenge and inspire you are essential to maintaining certainty in practice. Through stories from the Innate Summit, mission trips, and years of clinical experience, they discuss how reconnecting with your purpose strengthens your team, deepens patient trust, and brings renewed energy to the way you serve. When doctors continually invest in their own growth, they create practices that are more resilient, more aligned, and better equipped to change lives. Key Highlights 01:37 – Why the best seminars leave doctors wanting to bring that same energy back into their own practice. 04:17 – The surprising difference experience makes in developing certainty without feeling the need to convince patients. 06:02 – What years in practice reveal about patient decisions that newer doctors often take personally. 08:02 – Why strengthening your conviction before returning to practice changes how you serve every patient. 09:32 – The unexpected connection between personal growth, professional energy, and the patients who begin showing up in your office. 12:22 – How bringing team members to live events can reshape practice culture long after the seminar ends. 15:22 – A story from India that reveals where true certainty is often built. 20:02 – Why some of the greatest lessons from serving others end up transforming the doctor more than the patient. 23:02 – How maintaining curiosity keeps both clinical care and long-term patient relationships from becoming routine. 25:12 – The simple mindset shift that helps practices sustain purpose, enthusiasm, and growth long after the seminar ends. 26:59 - Imaging technology is evolving rapidly, and chiropractors have more opportunities than ever to improve efficiency and patient care. Dr. Pete sits down with J.R. Marsee from Success Partner Blue Ridge Imaging to explore turnkey imaging solutions, ongoing support, and the growing role of AI in modern chiropractic practices. Together, they discuss how the right technology partner can help practices operate with greater confidence today while preparing for the future.

The biggest choke on your growth probably isn't a lack of New Patients. It's the invisible money constraints hiding inside an otherwise successful practice. Dr. Pete and Dr. Stephen unpack how flawed pricing strategies, broken money beliefs, and ineffective money models quietly choke growth, reduce profitability, and limit impact. Through real-world examples, practical benchmarks, and a powerful reframe around value, conviction, and outcomes, they reveal how remarkable businesses create the resources needed to expand their mission. The payoff is a clear framework for identifying hidden revenue opportunities, strengthening confidence in recommendations, and building a business that can sustainably serve more people.   In This Episode You Will Discover: Why a seven-figure practice uncovered an additional six figures of annual revenue without adding a single new patient  The uncomfortable truth behind underpricing and the stories that keep doctors stuck there A powerful distinction between charging for services and charging for outcomes  How weak conviction silently shows up as poor conversion and inconsistent collections  The money mindset shift that transforms profit from a guilty topic into a mission multiplier Episode Highlights 03:27 - The breakthrough starts by identifying the single constraint that makes every other problem look bigger than it is.  05:13 - A thriving seven-figure practice discovers hidden revenue simply by delivering and charging for overlooked value.  08:24 - The difference between growth and profitability turns out to be smaller than most owners think.  09:40 - An industry-wide statistic exposes just how much untapped potential is sitting inside existing practices.  10:54 - Growth accelerates when attention shifts from solving five problems to eliminating one bottleneck.  17:14 - A common leadership habit quietly prevents owners from seeing money that's already available.  18:16 - The stories doctors tell themselves about pricing may be costing far more than they realize.  19:40 - A simple benchmark challenges whether value and fees are actually aligned.  22:15 - The real value gap isn't what is being delivered. It's what is never being communicated.  26:01 - One subtle shift in how recommendations are presented can completely change the response.  29:00 - A lesson about commitment, value, and human behavior reframes the entire money conversation.  30:27 - The distinction between selling a service and creating an outcome changes everything.  31:29 - A powerful distinction challenges the conventional relationship between service, value, and transformation. 33:23 - Dr. Lona sits down with Dr. Brian Capra from Success Partner ClinicMind to explore how chiropractic practices are evolving beyond traditional EHR systems into fully integrated growth platforms. They discuss how AI, automation, patient communication, and practice management are transforming attraction, retention, and scalability for modern clinics. Dr. Brian also shares how ClinicMind is helping practices simplify operations, improve patient experiences, and prepare for the future of chiropractic growth through one connected platform.   Resources Mentioned To learn more about the REM CEO Program, please visit:  http://www.theremarkablepractice.com/rem-ceo For more information about ClinicMind please visit: https://www.clinicmind.com/ Book a Strategy Session with Dr. Pete - https://go.oncehub.com/PodcastPC Prefer to watch?

Many practice owners build a practice first and only later realize they never intentionally built a life around it. Dr. Lona and Dr. Rachel Hovey explore what happens when motherhood, family, and practice ownership intersect, and why maternity leave often exposes the strengths and weaknesses of a practice's systems, delegation, and team structure. They discuss the importance of creating choices before you need them, communicating openly with patients and teams, allowing your rhythms and priorities to evolve, and building enough support so that life events do not become practice emergencies. The conversation is ultimately a reminder that remarkable practices are not built at the expense of remarkable lives, and that strong systems create the freedom to be fully present both at work and at home. Key Highlights 01:11 – Why maternity leave reveals more about a practice's systems than most owners realize. 03:25 – The hidden cost of building a successful practice while neglecting everything outside of it. 04:53 – What changes when doctors start having honest conversations with patients about life transitions. 06:10 – Why creating options before you need them gives practice owners more freedom later. 07:50 – The systems and rhythms that make extended time away from practice possible. 08:51 – What one doctor did before maternity leave that made stepping away realistic. 09:40 – The often-overlooked challenge of returning to practice after becoming a parent. 11:10 – Why motherhood changes more than your schedule and how that affects practice decisions. 14:39 – The lesson children teach high-performing doctors about flexibility and control. 19:19 – The role of community, mentorship, and support when navigating practice and family together. 24:07 - Dan Anticich from Success Partner Twoconnect, joins Dr. Andrew to discuss how chiropractic practices can improve lead conversion, patient reactivation, and operational efficiency through dedicated offshore support. They explore how virtual team members help practices protect marketing investments, strengthen patient communication, reduce administrative workload, and create scalable systems that support sustainable growth.   Resources Mentioned For more information about Two Connect please visit: https://twoconnect.com.au/ To schedule a Strategy Session with Dr Lona: https://go.oncehub.com/DrLonaBuildPodcast To schedule a Strategy Session with Dr Bobby: https://go.oncehub.com/DrBobbyBuildPodcast Learn more about the Remarkable CEO Podcast: https://theremarkablepractice.com/podcast

Dr. Tamsin Lee reveals why humanity is entering a 20-year shift unlike anything we've seen — the rise of "feminine fire," the return of the mature woman archetype, and a great turning that's already underway.In this profound conversation, Tamsin shares a life-altering moment in her mid-20s when she woke up paralyzed from the waist down. This health crisis forced her to slow down, leading her to traditional Chinese medicine and an unexpected path of learning to truly listen to her body.As a complex trauma survivor, she unpacks how to distinguish a quiet, authentic intuition from the familiar chaos of fear. Tamsin explores the depths of Eastern metaphysics, explaining Taoist face reading, where our "original face" reveals our ancestry and destiny, and how altering facial features can shift our life paths. She details the major global transitions of modern times, breaking down the 20-year cycle of Period 9 — intense fire energy, the rise of the mature woman archetype, and a decentralized creator economy.She also reframes perimenopause and postpartum recovery as sacred, element-based rites of passage, urging a collective return to inward energy, community connection, and seasonal alignment to stay deeply human in a fast-paced digital world.___

What if the future of chiropractic growth has less to do with hiring more people and more to do with freeing the right people to fully serve? Dr. Pete Camiolo and Dr. Eric Kowalke, Founder and CEO of SKED, unpack how AI, automation, and operational systems are reshaping the modern chiropractic office without sacrificing the human connection that makes chiropractic powerful. From front desk overwhelm and rising operational costs to predictive retention technology and smarter patient communication, the episode reveals how technology can eliminate distraction, improve efficiency, and create a more remarkable experience for both patients and teams. The payoff is a compelling blueprint for scaling family-based care while protecting the heart of the profession. In This Episode You Will Discover: Why the most overwhelmed practices are often drowning in operational distraction instead of patient demand   A smarter approach to using technology without sacrificing human connection or chiropractic culture  How rising staffing costs are forcing practice owners to rethink scalability and efficiency  The surprising role front desk presence plays in retention, energy, and patient experience  What predictive AI may soon reveal about patient behavior, follow-through, and long-term retention   Episode Highlights 04:15 - A scheduling challenge uncovers a bigger mission to help technology create more meaningful human connection inside the practice 08:00 - Why patient experience often suffers when team attention is pulled away from the people standing right in front of them 11:15 - A powerful self-audit challenges leaders to identify the one operational weakness they already know needs attention 13:00 - The family atmosphere found in thriving practices is traced back to something far deeper than systems or procedures 16:45 - Growing operational demands expose the difficult balance between staffing needs, profitability, and expansion 19:15 - Rising payroll and benefit costs reveal why many traditional growth strategies are becoming harder to sustain 22:30 - A new approach to technology emerges as a way to amplify chiropractic impact without compromising core values 26:00 - Visionary growth goals collide with team capacity, creating a challenge familiar to many practice owners 29:00 - A series of "what if" questions reframes how offices think about administrative workload and operational efficiency 33:30 - Unexpected scheduling data reveals when people are most likely to seek help and take action on their health 39:00 - Artificial intelligence uncovers surprising retention patterns that may help practices identify patient drop-off before it happens 45:36 - Dan Anticich from Success Partner Twoconnect, joins Dr. Andrew to discuss how chiropractic practices can improve lead conversion, patient reactivation, and operational efficiency through dedicated offshore support.

Many practice owners assume team growth is a hiring problem when it is often a certainty and systems problem first. Dr. Lona and Dr. Denise Weber explore what gets overlooked when building a practice that can grow beyond the doctor, including the mental shifts required to attract strong team members, the role of infrastructure in maintaining standards, the importance of knowing your numbers, and why team buy-in follows leadership clarity. They discuss how uncertainty at the leadership level creates uncertainty throughout the practice, how systems reduce dependence on individual personalities, and why valuing your care appropriately impacts both patient commitment and team confidence. When leaders build conviction, communicate a clear vision, and create systems that support consistency, stronger teams, better decisions, and sustainable growth become possible. Key Highlights 01:07 – The internal question many practice owners avoid before building a stronger team. 04:06 – Why attracting great people has less to do with hiring tactics and more to do with who the leader becomes. 05:33 – The difference between relying on people to hold standards and creating systems that make standards sustainable. 06:29 – What team onboarding has in common with patient care plans and progress exams. 08:23 – Why certainty from the leader often determines the confidence level of the entire team. 10:10 – How preparation creates buy-in when a practice is moving into a new season of growth. 11:51 – The surprising distinction between needing more effort and needing more buy-in. 12:28 – What practice numbers reveal that intuition alone cannot. 13:35 – Why some doctors avoid metrics and what changes when they finally embrace them. 18:10 – The connection between valuing your care, team confidence, and patient commitment. 22:43 - Dr. Chris is joined by Success Partner, Dr. David Fletcher of CLA to explore how neurocentric scanning technology transforms chiropractic communication and practice growth. They discuss using objective nervous system data to improve retention, scale with team leverage, increase PVA, and strengthen certainty in care planning. CLA's technology enhances attraction, conversion, collections, and long-term scalability.

Most practice owners think team struggles come from staffing shortages, difficult personalities, or lack of motivation, but Dr. Pete and Dr. Stephen challenge that assumption head-on. Dr. Pete frames the conversation around identifying the primary constraint limiting growth, while Dr. Stephen focuses on accountability as the force that turns busyness into productivity. Together, they unpack the “four rights” of building a high-performing team: right people, right positions, right work, and right way.   Getting these “4 Rights” right starts with your hiring process.  Set Expectations and Agreements early in the relationship - and make sure that they understand that your business is a “High Accountability" environment.  Along the way, they reveal why A-Players thrive in accountable cultures, how unclear expectations quietly sabotage scalability, and why stronger leadership systems create greater focus, healthier culture, and sustainable growth. In This Episode You Will Learn: Why many teams stay busy all day while producing surprisingly little movement  The hidden reason accountability systems fail even when leaders think they're “clear”  A sharper framework for identifying whether the issue is the person, the seat, or the work itself  What happens when A players are surrounded by unclear expectations and weak ownership  The surprising connection between focus, productivity, profitability, and team alignment Episode Highlights 01:35 - A powerful vision emerges around identifying the single team constraint quietly limiting growth and scalability  02:43 - Counterintuitive insight reveals why most practice owners have a focus problem instead of an effort problem  04:21 - Accountability gets reframed as the force that transforms motion into measurable movement  05:44 - A deeper look at A players exposes why great team members actually demand accountability  07:07 - Positioning takes center stage as leaders confront the costly mistake of placing people outside their zone of genius  08:37 - Practical strategy separates roles, responsibilities, and outcomes into a framework teams can actually execute 10:56 - A sharp hiring distinction reveals why CEOs should stop selling candidates into the job  14:45 - A compelling leadership challenge emerges around creating measurable ownership instead of vague expectations  16:49 - Early hiring mistakes expose how fast-moving CEOs unintentionally sabotage team quality  21:00 - Vision for a world-class team comes alive through the metaphor of a band where every player owns their role  22:35 - The real financial cost of weak accountability surfaces through productivity, profitability, and team optimization metrics 27:58 - Stephanie Dove Blake from Success Partner Social Sparrow joins Dr. Pete to share her personal journey from witnessing the impact of chronic pain to helping chiropractors reach more patients through digital marketing. They discuss lead generation, patient conversion, AI, and the systems Social Sparrow uses to help practices attract, book, and serve more people.   Resources Mentioned To learn more about the REM CEO Program, please visit:  http://www.theremarkablepractice.com/rem-ceo For more information about Social Sparrow please visit: https://socialsparrow.com   Book a Strategy Session with Dr. Pete - https://go.oncehub.com/PodcastPC Prefer to watch?

Most practice owners do not have a revenue problem early on. They have an allocation problem. Dr. Lona and Dr. Eric DiMartino discuss why treating revenue as personal income too soon often slows practice growth, and why the real challenge is learning to deploy money strategically into marketing, coaching, systems, and team development. They explore the common tendency to spend emotionally, hoard cash out of fear, or delay key investments that create momentum. The conversation connects these decisions to everyday practice realities such as patient acquisition, retention, staffing, leadership development, and long-term vision. When doctors learn to view revenue as fuel rather than validation, they create stronger systems, make better decisions, and build a practice that produces both growth and freedom. Key Highlights 02:20 – Why some doctors struggle financially long before revenue becomes the real issue. 03:59 – The difference between survival, stability, and scale, and why confusing them creates costly decisions. 06:01 – A deeper look at the investment many practice owners stop making too soon. 08:15 – What happens when a growing practice treats marketing like an expense instead of a responsibility. 08:39 – The reality of relying solely on referrals when your vision requires something bigger. 11:49 – Why strong lead generation can still leave a practice feeling stuck. 12:19 – The lesson behind the "dumb taxes" that many owners pay on their way to growth. 14:20 – What many doctors overlook when balancing caution, confidence, and personal spending. 16:25 – The connection between freedom, systems, and the people you choose to invest in. 21:52 – Why the ability to delay rewards often shapes the opportunities available years later. 24:21 - Dan Anticich from Success Partner Twoconnect, joins Dr. Andrew to discuss how chiropractic practices can improve lead conversion, patient reactivation, and operational efficiency through dedicated offshore support.

Why Retention Is The Real Growth Strategy  Most practices assume retention problems start when patients stop showing up, but the real breakdown happens much earlier. Dr. Stephen and Dr. Pete unpack why patient compliance is the hidden constraint limiting growth, referrals, scalability, and long-term impact. Through a practical framework built around strong starts, clear agreements, and patient understanding, they reveal how retention is not a motivation problem but a communication and systems problem. The conversation explores how practices create “wanting,” why compliance drives every major business metric, and how better patient stewardship creates stronger outcomes, deeper loyalty, and sustainable growth.   In This Episode You Will: Why many practices mistake new patient problems for the real operational leak quietly draining momentum and revenue  The hidden reason patient retention collapses long before someone officially drops out of care  A smarter way to think about compliance that transforms it from pressure into partnership What happens when patients fully understand the cause of their recurring health patterns  An important distinction between setting expectations and creating true agreements inside the patient journey Episode Highlights 02:01 - A compelling challenge emerges to stop chasing every problem and identify the one constraint capable of pulling the entire practice forward.  02:48 - Retention takes center stage as the overlooked driver behind better outcomes, stronger referrals, and sustainable revenue growth.  06:25 - An uncomfortable truth surfaces as retention is exposed as the area where even high-performing practices often struggle most.  08:03 - A deeper look at compliance reveals why patient follow-through is the leading indicator of long-term retention and retained revenue.  13:33 - The conversation introduces four critical agreements that determine whether a patient relationship begins with alignment or hidden friction.  15:50 - A sharp distinction reveals how weak retention is often the symptom of a weak start rather than a failure later in the patient journey.  19:18 - Dr. Stephen reframes conversion as a dialogue built around ownership, goals, and a clearly defined path forward.  21:12 - The hidden power of “wanting” emerges as the bridge between patient interest and long-term commitment to care.  23:23 - A practical metaphor illustrates how consistent momentum compounds when patients understand the value of staying in rhythm.  24:18 - The real breakthrough appears when patients connect recurring health challenges to the daily habits and stresses that keep recreating them.  29:53 - A deeper understanding of care becomes the turning point where compliance evolves into genuine belief and long-term retention.  31:19 - Scalability is redefined through retention as the conversation connects compliance, patient loyalty, and sustainable business growth. 34:06 - Dr. Lona sits down with Glen David from Success Partner Davlen Designs to explore how smarter clinic design can drive practice growth without adding square footage. Glen shares how strategic use of space, workflow optimization, and data-driven planning help practices improve efficiency, enhance patient experience, and create greater capacity to serve more people while scaling sustainably.   Resources Mentioned To learn more about the REM CEO Program, please visit:  http://www.theremarkablepractice.com/rem-ceo For more information about Davlen Design please visit: https://www.davlendesign.com/  Book a Strategy Session with Dr. Pete - https://go.oncehub.com/PodcastPC Prefer to watch?

What if the biggest growth opportunity in a chiropractic business isn't more marketing, more hours, or more staff, but simply maximizing what already exists? In this episode, Dr. Josiah Fitzsimmons, joins Dr. Pete to unpack the financial blind spots holding chiropractors back from greater profitability and impact. As the co-founder of Lucro, Dr. Josiah shares insights gathered from years of analyzing financial and operational data across hundreds of chiropractic clinics.

spent $135,000 to spend the day with Alex Hormozi.  Here's what he taught me about the conversion process and selling chiropractic care.  If patients are not saying yes to care, the problem may not be your passion, your systems, or even your recommendations - it's your offer.  Dr. Pete and Dr. Stephen break down why so many chiropractors struggle to convert despite deeply believing in what they do. Drawing from Dr. Stephen's recent coaching experience with Alex Hormozi and the framework of the irresistible offer, this conversation unpacks the four factors that shape every conversion decision: dream outcome, perceived likelihood of achievement, time delay, and effort and sacrifice. From learning how to stop selling process and start selling transformation to creating a patient journey that feels clear, trustworthy, and achievable, this episode gives chiropractors a practical roadmap for increasing conversion, strengthening certainty, and helping more people commit to care with confidence. In This Episode You Will: Understand why conversion constraints often begin with an unclear offer.  Learn how to sell the transformation instead of the process.  Discover the four parts of an irresistible patient offer.  Clarify how trust, proof, and certainty increase patient belief.  See how a clear roadmap makes care feel easier to commit to. Episode Highlights 01:04 - Identify why the question is not whether conversion has a constraint, but where that restraint is showing up. 04:12 - Discover how an irresistible offer becomes the first lens for diagnosing a stalled conversion process. 05:55 - Clarify why patients do not buy services, systems, or procedures before they believe in the transformation. 09:36 - Recognize how selling the outcome changes the emotional weight of the entire conversion conversation. 13:10 - Explore the four-part value equation that shapes whether a patient says yes or hesitates. 18:26 - Understand why conversion becomes a skill when the dream outcome is made specific, emotional, and compelling. 23:32 - Reveal how proof, testimonials, and certainty increase a patient's belief that care can work for them. 27:05 - Examine how time delay becomes a conversion restraint when patients cannot see a faster path to results. 29:19 - Differentiate between a hard process and a supported process that makes commitment feel possible. 34:42 - Recognize how the right offer combines accountability, support, and clarity into a decision patients can trust. 36:15 - As a Success Partner, Chiro-Ads Academy brings a powerful, in-house approach to digital marketing that helps practices take control of new patient acquisition. As Dr. Eric sits down with Dr. Travis Stewart, the conversation reveals how early struggles with inconsistent agency results led to a proven system that lowers lead costs, improves conversion, and drives predictable growth through trust-based advertising and data-driven decision-making.

Your practice is stuck because you don't have enough Qualified Leads to take you to the next level.  In this episode, Dr. Stephen and Dr. Pete unpack the first and often most common bottleneck in practice growth: the inability to consistently attract the right people with the right message at the right time. Through the lens of the Theory of Constraints, they reveal why marketing struggles are rarely solved by simply “doing more marketing” and instead require deeper clarity around purpose, messaging, ideal patient profiles, and measurable systems. From refining the market message that cuts through the noise to understanding Marketing Spend, CAC (Cost to Acquire a Customer) and “Buyer Readiness”, this episode provides a strategic framework for chiropractors who want to stop spraying and praying and start building predictable attraction systems that scale influence, income, and patient impact. In This Episode You Will: Understand why attraction constraints are often the hidden bottleneck in practice growth. Discover how purpose, mission, and vision shape effective marketing systems.  Learn how to create messaging that cuts through marketplace noise and increases readiness.  Clarify the difference between random marketing activity and measurable lead generation.  See how metrics like CAC and LTV create confidence, scale, and strategic decision-making.   Episode Highlights 01:44 - Identify how one primary constraint can quietly suppress growth across an otherwise healthy practice. 03:54 - Discover why true transformation begins when education unlocks awareness rather than simply delivering information. 05:28 - Recognize how unresolved attraction constraints keep practices stuck even when effort and intention remain high. 08:16 - Explore why great coaching often reveals hidden solutions that were already within reach. 11:12 - Clarify why the problem behind the problem must be solved before marketing tactics can produce meaningful growth. 14:23 - Uncover how defining an ideal client profile changes the precision and effectiveness of attraction strategies. 16:36 - Examine the three-part messaging equation required to cut through marketplace noise and create urgency. 18:06 - Reveal how trust-building systems increase patient readiness long before a conversion conversation begins. 20:38 - Differentiate between inconsistent marketing activity and the disciplined repetition required to create momentum. 27:31 - Understand why data-driven marketing eliminates stress and creates confidence in scaling patient acquisition. 28:43 - Dr. Rachel is joined by Dr. Kendall Price of Success Partner Elevate Marketing to unpack what it really takes to turn marketing into a true growth system for modern practices. They explore how Elevate moves beyond generic campaigns by blending brand identity with proven strategies, building trust through every step of the patient journey, and optimizing for real outcomes like patient show rates, not just leads. When marketing becomes intentional, relational, and data-driven, growth shifts from unpredictable to scalable and sustainable.   Resources Mentioned To learn more about the REM CEO Program, please visit:  http://www.theremarkablepractice.com/rem-ceo For more information about Elevate Marketing please visit: https://goelevatemarketing.com/ Book a Strategy Session with Dr. Pete - https://go.oncehub.com/PodcastPC Prefer to watch?

You don't have an effort problem - you have a FOCUS problem.  Most practices aren't stuck because of a lack of effort, they're stuck because they're solving the wrong problems in the wrong order. In this episode, Dr. Stephen and Dr. Pete introduce the concept of the primary constraint and challenge the idea of “priorities” by reframing success around singular focus. Through the lens of the accountability grid and the five domains of business, they lay the foundation for a new way of thinking about growth: identifying, sequencing, and solving the one constraint that matters most right now. This episode sets the strategic framework for eliminating overwhelm, creating clarity, and unlocking the next level of performance. The payoff is a shift from reactive problem-solving to intentional, CEO-level decision making that drives real momentum. In This Episode You Will: Understand why solving multiple problems keeps you stuck Learn the difference between constraints and symptoms Discover how to identify your single primary constraint See why sequencing problems is the key to growth Clarify how to think like a CEO instead of an operator Episode Highlights 01:55 - Recognize that every business faces multiple challenges, yet one primary constraint ultimately determines growth trajectory 03:55 - Understand the distinction between having many problems and identifying the single priority that creates leverage 08:40 - Discover that most growth plateaus are caused by a lack of focus rather than a lack of effort 09:05 - Explore the CEO's role as the “human magnifying glass” directing energy and resources toward one outcome 11:10 - Examine how concentrated focus ignites momentum instead of spreading effort across multiple weak initiatives 16:03 - Identify the importance of sequencing constraints rather than attempting to solve everything simultaneously 17:31 - Differentiate between symptoms and true constraints when moving to the next level of growth 18:21 - Clarify how the five domains of business align with the patient journey and operational structure 22:12 - Reveal the hidden cost of ignoring constraints in both impact and income 25:21 - Uncover the most common primary constraints across attraction, conversion, retention, team, and money 27:48 - Dr. Eric DiMartino is joined by Mark Murdock of Aspen Live Well to explore how light therapy expands chiropractic impact and revenue. They discuss class IV laser, full-body photobiomodulation, and scalable business models that generate recurring income without requiring doctor time. Light therapy accelerates healing, attracts new patients, and creates a profitable business within a practice.   Resources Mentioned Download your copy of the Accountability Grid here:  https://go.theremarkablepractice.com/remceo-ep357-acctgrid   To learn more about the REM CEO Program, please visit:  http://www.theremarkablepractice.com/rem-ceo For more information about Aspen Live Well please visit: https://aspenlivewell.com/ Book a Strategy Session with Dr. Pete - https://go.oncehub.com/PodcastPC Prefer to watch?

From Motivation to Incentivization: How PPFG Changes Everything Most practice owners try to motivate their teams, but motivation is unreliable and short-lived. Incentivization, on the other hand, is structural and drives consistent behavior. When incentives are unclear or misaligned, teams default to average effort instead of tapping into discretionary energy.   Dr. Pete and Dr. Stephen break down how to intentionally connect outcomes, behaviors, and rewards so that performance becomes predictable and scalable. By aligning incentives with what truly matters and using the PPFG (Personal, Professional, Financial Goals) framework to uncover what drives each team member, leaders can create an environment where people are fully engaged, retention improves, and growth becomes inevitable. In This Episode You Will: Understand why incentivization drives performance more than motivation.  Learn how to connect behaviors to outcomes through clear KPIs.  Discover how discretionary energy separates good teams from great ones.  Clarify how alignment unlocks higher performance and fulfillment.  See how personal, professional, and financial goals fuel retention and growth. Episode Highlights 02:23 - Explore how alignment between purpose, performance, and profitability unlocks sustained energy and engagement. 03:43 - Discover how discretionary energy represents the hidden performance multiplier inside every team member. 04:50 - Examine the structured process of linking outcomes to behaviors as the foundation for effective incentivization. 06:26 - Differentiate alignment as the true driver of success beyond effort or activity alone. 09:02 - Uncover how removing judgment allows leaders to better understand what truly motivates individual team members. 11:05 - Identify the importance of creating mechanisms that ensure consistent and meaningful incentivization conversations. 14:15 - Reveal how lack of clarity around personal, professional, and financial goals leads to disengagement and eventual turnover. 17:26 - Clarify how a humble, relationship-first approach strengthens trust and opens the door for deeper alignment. 21:31 - Understand that helping people achieve their goals becomes the strongest driver of long-term retention. 22:41 - Recognize that failure to grow is the most expensive outcome, reinforcing the necessity of aligned incentives and performance systems. 25:06 - Dr. Chris is joined by Success Partner, Dr. David Fletcher of CLA to explore how neurocentric scanning technology transforms chiropractic communication and practice growth. They discuss using objective nervous system data to improve retention, scale with team leverage, increase PVA, and strengthen certainty in care planning. CLA's technology enhances attraction, conversion, collections, and long-term scalability.   Resources Mentioned Download your copy of the PPFG Worksheet here:  https://go.theremarkablepractice.com/remceo-ep355-ppfg  To learn more about the REM CEO Program, please visit:  http://www.theremarkablepractice.com/rem-ceo For more information about CLA please visit: https://insightcla.com/ Book a Strategy Session with Dr. Pete - https://go.oncehub.com/PodcastPC Prefer to watch?

The GWC Framework: Why “Wants It” Determines Everything! The biggest hiring mistake in a chiropractic business usually is not talent, training, or even culture fit. It is putting someone in a seat they do not actually want.   Dr. Stephen and Dr. Pete unpack the GWC framework from Traction and show why “Wants It” is often the hidden reason behind underperformance, turnover, frustration, and team instability. They break down how to properly evaluate whether a team member gets the role, wants the role, and has the capacity to perform it, while challenging CEOs to stop selling people on positions and start building a stronger hiring process. The payoff is a more aligned team, healthier culture, lower turnover, and a business that can grow with greater clarity and momentum. In This Episode You Will: Understand why “Wants It” is often the missing factor behind team underperformance and turnover.  Learn how to use the GWC framework to assess role fit with greater precision.  Discover why selling people on a role creates costly hiring mistakes.  Clarify the difference between the right person and the right seat.  See how stronger team alignment protects culture, momentum, and long-term growth. Episode Highlights 03:51 - Recognize that underperformance, quitting, and firing often begin long before the visible breakdown appears inside the practice. 04:46 - Discover how the GWC framework reveals a deeper predictor of whether someone will truly succeed on a team. 06:25 - Understand why a person can clearly get the role and still fail simply because the internal desire to own it is missing. 08:05 - Uncover how misalignment between a position and a person's real motivation quietly sabotages performance over time. 09:44 - Clarify that wanting the role is what makes hard work sustainable when the pressure and difficulty inevitably rise. 10:41 - Examine why CEOs must stop guessing about role fit and start asking direct questions that expose real understanding and commitment. 12:28 - Reveal the costly mistake of selling people on a role instead of testing whether they will fight for it themselves. 16:03 - Differentiate between moving slowly in hiring and moving precisely by asking better questions that expose fit earlier. 19:23 - Explore how many chiropractors discover too late that loving chiropractic is not the same as wanting to be a business owner. 21:30 - Identify how most persistent business pain traces back upstream to a team issue and, more specifically, a right-seat issue. 24:37 - As a Success Partner, Chiro-Ads Academy brings a powerful, in-house approach to digital marketing that helps practices take control of new patient acquisition. As Dr. Eric sits down with Dr. Travis Stewart, the conversation reveals how early struggles with inconsistent agency results led to a proven system that lowers lead costs, improves conversion, and drives predictable growth through trust-based advertising and data-driven decision-making.
