I'd love to hear from you 'text the show'WelcomeWelcome back to the Treat Your Business podcast! This week, I'm diving into the recruitment crisis we're all feeling in the clinical world – but I'm not just here to moan, I'm here to shine a light on the opportunities as well. I'm joined by the fabulous Carys Roberts from Swan Physio and Cygnet, who's back by popular demand. We're unpacking how student placements can transform not only your clinic but also the careers of the next generation of clinicians. Trust me, if you're overwhelmed with recruitment or just fancy a fresh approach, you'll want to listen in!Episode SummaryIn this episode, we get real about the challenges facing clinic owners – from the lack of hands-on experience in new grads to the ever-changing employment rights. Carys shares her journey from juggling five jobs to running a thriving, multidisciplinary clinic and supporting student placements for over 15 years. We talk through how bringing students into your business (yes, funded placements!) isn't just about giving back – it's a strategic move to help you grow, recruit confidently, and future-proof your clinic. Expect practical tips, a few laughs, and honest chat about what actually works in the real world.Key Takeaways✨ There's a recruitment challenge, but also a huge opportunity if you're open to student placements✨ Funded placements can be a game-changer for your business – you get to “try before you buy”✨ Building the right processes and onboarding is crucial for success (yes, Carys is the spreadsheet queen!)✨ Student placements aren't just for physio clinics – there are options for everyone✨ It's all about finding the right fit: attitude and values matter more than clinical skills at first✨ Students can add value in surprising ways – from running classes to bringing fresh ideas✨ Start the conversation now, even if you're not ready yet – it takes time to build the right infrastructure✨ You're not alone: bespoke support and resources are available to help you every step of the wayResources & Links

Campbell breaks down the unique ways children experience and regulate their emotions, offering insights that can help parents move from reactive parenting to intentional, compassionate guidance.   Highlights: "All behaviors are communication of a need."   "What we're sensitive to drains our nervous system. What we're seeking recharges it."   "We're all unique humans, and the way our nervous system works is unique."   "It's not a question of whether your body is wise.

We discuss new research that demonstrated how a hospital system that has implemented IDF™ not only improved breastfeeding success rates in the NICU, but they also had an increase in sustained breastfeeding rates after discharge.Elisa also reflects on the lessons learned and the rewards of building a successful feeding clinic, offering inspiration for other clinicians who may want to create something similar in their own communities.This episode is filled with practical strategies and heartfelt perspectives from clinicians dedicated to providing a holistic, family-centered approach to infant feeding—making it an essential listen for both NICU parents and clinicians committed to empowering families and improving outcomes.Dr. Brown's Medical: https://www.drbrownsmedical.com  The Infant-Driven Feeding™ (IDF) Program: https://www.infantdrivenfeeding.com/Our NICU Roadmap: A Comprehensive NICU Journal: https://empoweringnicuparents.com/nicujournal/  NICU Mama Hats: https://empoweringnicuparents.com/hats/  NICU Milestone Cards: https://empoweringnicuparents.com/nicuproducts/  Newborn Holiday Cards: https://empoweringnicuparents.com/shop/  Empowering NICU Parents Show Notes: https://empoweringnicuparents.com/shownotes/  Episode 73 Show Notes: https://empoweringnicuparents.com/episode73  Empowering NICU Parents Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/empoweringnicuparents/  Empowering NICU Parents FB Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/empoweringnicuparents  Pinterest Page: https://pin.it/36MJjmH

In this week's episode of the podcast, we dive deep into the tricky tightrope walk of balancing structure and flexibility at home—because let's be honest, parenting (and homeschooling) neurodivergent kids isn't for the faint of heart! This episode is your breathe-and-hit-reset permission slip. Here's a peek at what we covered:   Structure is Comforting… Until It Isn't Structure helps our kids (and us!) feel safe. Predictable routines can seriously reduce anxiety, especially for those with executive functioning challenges, ADHD, autism, or sensory processing issues. But too much rigidity? It can spark rebellion, burnout, and meltdowns—especially with creative, passionate, gifted kids.   What Does Flexibility Really Mean? Flexibility doesn't mean winging it! It means responsive teaching—letting your child's needs, interests, and even energy levels guide your day. I share my own family's rhythm, from color-coded calendars to built-in time for unexpected appointments and sibling support.   Practical Strategies to Try Now Here are some actionable takeaways to help you find your family's sweet spot: Start with Your “Must Do's”: Define your “minimum viable day”—the simplest version of what needs to happen (e.g., a little reading, writing, and math). Ease into your routine and build up slowly. Anchors, Not Timetables: Instead of strict schedules, anchor your day around meals, read-alouds, or physical routines. Visual Tools & Ownership: Use checklists, whiteboards, or color-coded calendars so your kids know what's on deck. Support Executive Function: Scaffold routines gently and model breaking big tasks into small steps. Embrace Interest-Led Learning: Let your child's passions drive parts of the curriculum for greater engagement. Built-in Downtime: Everyone—including you!—needs breaks to recharge.   You're Not Alone (Even When It Feels Like It) If your Instagram doesn't look like those homeschool highlight reels, that's normal. Messy days aren't failures—they're feedback.   Looking for More Support?

You're the perfect parent for your child—just as you are.

The Unvarnished Truth About Sales: Lessons from the UK's Most Hated Sales Trainer, Benjamin DennehyIn the world of sales, few voices are as candid—or as controversial—as Benjamin Dennehy, widely known as the UK's most hated sales trainer. In this episode, hosted by Josh Elledge, Benjamin pulls no punches as he exposes the uncomfortable realities of sales, debunks persistent myths, and offers actionable strategies for founders, salespeople, and small business owners. This blog post distills the key themes and expert advice from their conversation, providing a comprehensive guide for anyone looking to elevate their sales game.The Realities of Sales and Building Repeatable SuccessBenjamin starts by addressing an uncomfortable truth: most people in sales didn't choose the profession—they stumbled into it. This lack of passion often leads to mediocrity, with many salespeople operating at a “seven out of ten” level, performing just enough to get by. To break through this, Benjamin advocates for treating sales as a craft that demands continuous improvement and investment in proper training. He emphasizes the importance of building a repeatable sales process, focusing on long-term relationships rather than just closing deals.Benjamin also talks about the “founder-led sales trap” where entrepreneurs, passionate about their products, often dread the sales process. Founders frequently hesitate to delegate or hire the right salespeople, leading to burnout and stagnation. He encourages founders to invest in structured sales training, create a clear sales process, and treat sales with the same importance as product development or finance. This shift in mindset is crucial for scaling a business beyond the founder's efforts.Finally, Benjamin discusses the common pitfalls businesses face when hiring salespeople. He warns against hiring based on charisma alone and stresses the need to look for candidates who demonstrate solid sales processes and results. Without a clear and documented sales approach, businesses will continue to struggle with underperforming teams. He advises on setting clear metrics and ensuring new hires are onboarded with proper training to drive predictable and repeatable sales success.About Benjamin DennehyBenjamin Dennehy is the Founder of Sales Matrix Courses, a platform offering comprehensive training and coaching for sales professionals. Known for his blunt, no-nonsense approach, Benjamin helps businesses confront uncomfortable truths about sales, break through mediocrity, and achieve repeatable success.About Sales Matrix CoursesSales Matrix Courses is a sales training platform created by Benjamin Dennehy.

This discussion explores how our perceptions of feelings, sensations, and thoughts often lead us to adopt a victim mindset, feeling as if life's challenges are acting upon us rather than being experiences we can navigate. Recognizing this mindset is the first step toward empowerment, as it often leads to feelings of helplessness, contributing to both anxiety and depression.I emphasize the importance of awareness in this journey; acknowledging that we are not inherently broken or victimized by our circumstances, but rather we have the ability to reframe our experiences. Drawing from the wisdom of Viktor Frankl, I remind listeners that true power lies in our capacity to choose. While anxiety can be consuming, it's crucial to remember that we can alter the narrative from being passive recipients of our fears to actively engaging with them as volunteers.The discussion transitions into exploring what this “volunteer” mindset entails. I encourage listeners to embrace life's challenges with courage, facing fears head-on instead of succumbing to overwhelming feelings of being victimized by life's circumstances. By accepting our situation while also acknowledging our ability to respond with strength, we allow ourselves the opportunity to extinguish the fires of anxiety rather than fuel them further.#anxiety #mindsetshift #victimtovolunteer #stressmanagement #mentalhealth #courage #powerofchoice #mindfulness #relaxation #selfhelp #personalgrowth #copingstrategies #mentalwellness #emotionalregulation #resilience #selfcompassion #innerstrength #wellbeing #livedexperienceSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
