She Slays the Day

Lauryn Brunclik

You didn't go through years of school, clinical hours, and board exams to end up exhausted, underpaid relative to your potential, and wondering if this is really it.

She breaks down the real mechanics of growing a practice without losing yourself in it: clinic optimization, team systems, wealth building, personal branding, diversifying income, and designing a life with actual freedom in it — not just the Instagram version.

    382 – Facebook Ads for Chiropractors: Ditch the Agency and Go In-House feat. Dr. Travis Stewart

    What if the marketing agency you hired to grow your chiropractic practice is actually keeping you from understanding one of the most important parts of your business? In Part One of this conversation, Dr. Lauryn sits down with Dr. Travis Stewart to unpack how taking control of his own Facebook and Instagram ads helped transform a struggling new practice. Travis shares how he went from roughly $12K to $70K a month by bringing marketing in-house, developing condition-specific ad funnels, and learning how to create messaging that actually builds trust and converts. They also explore the shift from clinician to CEO, simplifying marketing so it remains sustainable, building a team around a bigger vision, and confronting the burnout and identity challenges that can come when your entrepreneurial ambitions grow beyond patient care. Key Takeaways Owning your marketing creates control. Travis stopped depending on agencies, learned the mechanics of Facebook and Instagram advertising, and built an in-house system that helped take his practice from roughly $12K to $70K per month.Effective chiropractic advertising starts with relevance and trust. Condition-specific messaging, strong hooks, clear positioning, social proof, and a compelling call to action can make an ad feel built specifically for the patient seeing it.Practice growth requires a CEO mindset. Learning to track data, understand demand generation, simplify systems, and make informed business decisions became just as important as being an excellent chiropractor.More revenue does not automatically create more freedom. As the practice grew, Travis moved from being money-poor and time-rich to money-rich and time-poor, forcing him to build a team, delegate, and rethink where his time and attention belonged. About the Guest Dr. Travis Stewart is the owner of Move Chiropractic in Boulder, Colorado, and co-founder of Making Moves, the coaching company behind Chiro Ads Academy. After opening his practice during the 2020 lockdown, Travis helped grow it from roughly $12K to $70K per month in just a few months by bringing his marketing in-house and developing his own Facebook and Instagram advertising system. Since then, Travis and his team have helped more than 450 chiropractic practices implement their own ads, managing over $5 million in ad spend and generating more than $30 million in care plan revenue for clients. He also hosts *The Arena*, where he shares strategies for chiropractic practice growth, marketing, leadership, and entrepreneurship. Resources: Rich Doc Playbook: Secure your spot today!

    381 - Marketing Strategy Beyond Social Media: Build an Ecosystem feat. Whitney Abraham

    Is your marketing actually growing your business—or are you just posting on social media and hoping something happens? What if the problem isn’t your content, your follower count, or the algorithm, but the fact that you’ve never built a true marketing ecosystem around your business? Dr. Lauryn sits down with Whitney Abraham, founder of Your CMO & Co., to break down what strategic marketing looks like beyond Instagram. They explore the role of a fractional CMO, turning an audience into revenue, knowing when to delegate marketing, and why successful entrepreneurs often wait too long to address burnout and resentment. Whitney also shares why certainty is one of the strongest predictors of entrepreneurial success—and her simple formula for building confidence through self-talk, action, and repetition. Key Takeaways Social media is only one piece of a successful marketing strategy. Sustainable business growth requires an integrated marketing ecosystem that connects content, email, launches, partnerships, messaging, and sales around a clear objective.A fractional CMO can bring executive-level marketing strategy without the expense of hiring a full-time C-suite executive. The goal is not simply to create more content, but to orchestrate the entire marketing operation around revenue and growth.A large audience does not automatically equal a profitable business. Before monetizing followers, business owners need to understand why people followed them, whether that audience aligns with what they want to sell, and how to strategically convert attention into opportunity.Certainty and self-trust are critical to entrepreneurial success. Whitney’s confidence formula—positive self-talk + action + repetition—helps entrepreneurs build proof that they can solve problems, make decisions, and continue moving forward. About the Guest Whitney Abraham is the founder of Your CMO & Co., a marketing agency built for business owners who want to leverage the internet to strategically scale their companies. A serial entrepreneur, Whitney has built multiple seven-figure online businesses and an eight-figure business from the ground up. She has spent nearly a decade in digital marketing and has coached thousands of women on building, launching, and scaling businesses of their own. After years of watching entrepreneurs struggle to execute the strategies they were learning, Whitney created Your CMO & Co. to provide the complete marketing ecosystem of a fractional CMO combined with hands-on implementation and operational support.

    380 - Financial Freedom for Doctors: Build Wealth Beyond Your Practice feat. Dr. Daniel Herzberg

    What if your clinic is profitable, your schedule is full—and you’re still financially handcuffed to patient care? In this episode, Dr. Lauryn sits down with Dr. Daniel Herzberg to unpack why high income alone doesn’t create freedom, and why doctors need a strategy that extends beyond simply earning more, saving more, or waiting until the practice hits the next revenue milestone. Together, they explore the shift from active income to capital that works for you, why doctors often delay investing, how lifestyle creep and risk aversion can stall wealth building, and the importance of coordinating taxes, cash flow, investing, risk management, and business operations. Daniel also breaks down hard money lending, private investments, and the family office approach—giving practice owners a framework for building wealth, optionality, and a future where working is a choice rather than an obligation. Key Takeaways High income does not automatically create financial freedom. If your income still depends on how many patients you personally see, you’re continuing to trade time for money regardless of how successful your practice becomes.Doing nothing with your money is still an investment decision. Risk aversion can protect doctors from bad opportunities, but years of financial inaction can also mean losing valuable time, compound growth, and opportunities to build income outside the clinic.Stop treating wealth building like a collection of disconnected financial products. Taxes, cash flow, investments, business operations, risk management, and long-term goals should work together as one coordinated wealth strategy.Your capital can become your best employee. Building assets and passive income allows your money to work independently of your clinical hours, ultimately giving you the freedom to practice because you want to—not because you financially have to. About the Guest Dr. Daniel Herzberg is a physician freedom coach, founder of the Intelligent Investor Forum, and creator of the Physician Freedom Plan, a strategic framework designed to help physicians and high-income professionals reduce financial stress, build income beyond their careers, and create greater freedom over their time and future. With more than 33 years of experience and over 9,000 clients served, Daniel helps clients identify the gap between where they are financially and where they want to be, then coordinate strategies around investing, taxes, cash flow, risk management, business operations, and wealth building to help close that gap.

    379 - Healthcare Websites That Convert: Branding That Attracts Patients feat. Alexa Torres

    Is your practice website actually helping patients choose you, or is it just a digital brochure listing your services? In this episode, Dr. Lauryn sits down with branding strategist Alexa Torres to unpack what makes a healthcare brand connect, convert, and stand out in 2026. They explore why great marketing starts with making patients feel seen, not simply telling them how qualified you are. Alexa breaks down emotional selling, identifying your primary audience, creating a website that functions like a pre sales conversation, and designing for both quick decision makers and analytical buyers. They also dive into using AI to develop your brand voice, write better content, build websites, and even create an AI twin that helps you show up consistently without constantly being on camera. Key Takeaways Patients buy outcomes, not services. Effective healthcare marketing speaks to the emotional problem behind what a patient is experiencing so they immediately recognize that your practice understands them.Your website should operate like a sales conversation. Strategic messaging, clear positioning, intentional calls to action, and a series of small “yeses” can pre sell prospective patients before they ever contact your practice.Your personal brand matters, but your patient should remain the focus. Establish your expertise and personality without making the homepage a résumé about your education, credentials, and accomplishments.AI works best when you give it your ideas instead of asking it to invent them. Detailed prompting, voice training, AI assisted website building, and tools like AI twins can make marketing faster while still preserving the perspective that makes your brand unique. Guest Bio Alexa Torres is a creative director and branding strategist who has built more than 200 brands and websites since beginning her career in 2009. After shifting her focus exclusively to healthcare in 2016, Alexa and her team have helped more than 100 health entrepreneurs transform their ideas into magnetic brands that attract ideal patients, communicate their value clearly, and inspire action. Through her branding agency, Care Identity, and educational platform, The Clinician’s Atelier, she helps healthcare entrepreneurs strengthen their branding, websites, messaging, and marketing while leveraging emerging AI tools to work more efficiently.

    378 - Find Your WHY: Better Hiring, Marketing & Leadership feat. Dr. Gary Sanchez

    Do you actually know why you do what you do, or have you just gotten really good at describing what you do? Most personality assessments explain how you behave, but Dr. Gary Sanchez believes the deeper question is what fundamentally drives you. In this episode, Dr. Lauryn explores the WHY.os framework and discovers just how clearly knowing your WHY, HOW, and WHAT can explain your career, leadership style, relationships, and business decisions. Dr. Gary breaks down the nine WHYs, walks through Lauryn’s personal operating system, and shows how this framework can transform everything from marketing to hiring. They discuss finding the right people for the right roles, why misalignment can look like burnout, how your WHY shapes your ideal clients, and why understanding your team’s motivations could make hiring and leadership dramatically easier. Key Takeaways Start with who, then what. Understanding the motivation behind how you operate can bring clarity to your career, leadership style, personal brand, and the work that actually gives you energy.Your WHY can sharpen your marketing. When you clearly articulate what you believe and why you do what you do, you can attract patients and clients who share those beliefs instead of competing primarily on price or services.Hiring is about alignment, not just qualifications. Mapping a team’s WHY, HOW, and WHAT can help practice owners identify whether people are in roles that naturally fit how they think, work, and contribute.Different motivations belong in different seats. The traits that make someone exceptional at challenging the status quo, building trust, simplifying systems, solving problems, or contributing to others may make them perfect for one role and miserable in another. Guest Bio Dr. Gary Sanchez, also known as “Dr. WHY,” is the founder and CEO of the WHY Institute and creator of the WHY Discovery and WHY.os framework. A former dentist who practiced for 32 years, Dr. Gary turned his fascination with purpose and human motivation into a system designed to help individuals and teams understand the WHY, HOW, and WHAT behind the way they operate. Today, he is an international speaker, author, inventor, and thought leader whose work helps leaders, businesses, and individuals gain greater clarity around their strengths, relationships, careers, messaging, and purpose.

    377 - Break the Seven Figure Ceiling: Scale Your Practice Without Working More feat. Allison Maslan

    What if breaking the seven figure ceiling has less to do with working harder and more to do with completely changing how your practice grows? Many clinic owners hit a point where more patients, longer hours, and more personal effort simply create more exhaustion. In this episode, Dr. Lauryn sits down with Allison Maslan to explore what actually has to change when your own capacity becomes the bottleneck. They unpack scalable business models that can help practice owners grow without trading more time for money, including building a team of providers, creating recurring revenue, and acquiring other practices. Allison also explains why owners often wait too long to hire support, how to develop employees into strategic thinkers instead of task takers, why creativity matters in scaling, and how mindset and leadership must evolve alongside your business. Key Takeaways Scaling requires leverage, not simply more volume. If your growth plan is based entirely on seeing more patients yourself, your personal capacity eventually becomes the ceiling of the business.Build a team that multiplies the business. Hiring support earlier, empowering employees to think strategically, and developing other providers allows the practice to grow beyond what the owner can personally produce.Look beyond the traditional chiropractic business model. Memberships, recurring revenue, ancillary services, multiple locations, and practice acquisitions can create new paths to growth without requiring the owner to work more hours.Your leadership and mindset must scale too. Breaking through a revenue plateau requires strategic execution, bigger thinking, creativity, delegation, and a willingness to stop controlling every part of the business yourself. Guest Bio Allison Maslan is a Wall Street Journal bestselling author, CEO of Pinnacle Global Network, and business scaling mentor who has built ten successful companies over more than four decades. Through Pinnacle Global Network, she works with CEOs and leadership teams to break through growth plateaus and build companies that can thrive without depending entirely on their founders. She is the author of Scale or Fail and creator of the SCALEit Method, which combines strategic planning, leadership, team development, marketing, sales, cash flow, and mindset to help entrepreneurs multiply their growth, impact, and freedom.

    376 – Cut Payroll Bloat and Build a More Profitable Practice feat. Dr. Mark Mouw

    Is your practice generating more revenue while leaving you with less money? Are the team members you hired to create freedom actually increasing overhead, creating bottlenecks, and draining your profit? Dr. Lauryn sits down with Dr. Mark Mouw to examine why growing a practice does not automatically mean building a profitable or sustainable business. Dr. Mark shares lessons from more than 24 years of hiring associates, replacing himself in patient care, expanding services, and developing a high-performing team. They discuss compensation models, meaningful KPIs, transitioning away from a personality-based practice, and using virtual chiropractic assistants for insurance verification, lead follow-up, scheduling, and administrative work. This conversation will help clinic owners reduce payroll bloat, protect their in-office teams from burnout, and build practices that provide greater financial and personal freedom. Key Takeaways Practice growth must be measured by profitability, not revenue alone. Clinic owners need to understand their payroll, cost per visit, average collections, profit margins, and meaningful KPIs before adding more people or services.An associate doctor cannot succeed without the right positioning, systems, and compensation model. Patients should be introduced to another qualified doctor, not “the associate,” while the owner remains responsible for creating demand and transferring trust.Expanded services can improve both patient outcomes and practice profitability. Laser therapy, decompression, supplements, and other offerings must remain congruent with the clinic’s philosophy while helping patients receive better results.Virtual chiropractic assistants can reduce payroll bloat and employee burnout. Insurance verification, lead follow-up, scheduling, administrative work, and other non-patient-facing responsibilities can be delegated so the in-office team can focus on relationships, leadership, and patient care. Guest Bio Dr. Mark Mouw is a chiropractor, practice owner, and business leader with more than 24 years of clinical and entrepreneurial experience. After building a successful patient-centered practice alongside his wife, Dr. Mark developed extensive experience hiring associate doctors, creating scalable systems, expanding services, and building teams that allow a clinic to grow beyond its owner. As a co-owner of Chiro Matchmakers, he helps chiropractic practices find the right associate doctors, chiropractic assistants, and virtual chiropractic assistants for their specific needs.

    375 - Tax Strategies to Keep More of What You Earn feat. Barbara Schreihans

    What if the fastest way to make an extra $50,000 isn’t generating more revenue—but keeping more of what your practice already earns? In the final episode of the summer From the Vault series, Dr. Lauryn revisits her conversation with tax strategist Barbara Schreihans to explore why proactive tax planning belongs in every profitable practice owner’s wealth strategy. Barbara breaks down how entity selection, S corporation elections, home office and vehicle deductions, business travel, content creation expenses, and real estate can affect your tax liability. She also explains why receipts, mileage logs, board minutes, and real-time documentation matter, how to evaluate whether your accountant is actually saving you money, and why quarterly CPA conversations should replace the annual tax-season scramble. Tax laws change, so use these principles to ask better questions of your own licensed tax professional. Key Takeaways: Tax strategy begins with profitability and proactive planning. Once your business is consistently profitable, taxes should become part of your year-round wealth strategy—not a problem you address after December 31.Your business entity can significantly affect your tax burden. Barbara explains why practice owners should regularly evaluate whether their LLC, sole proprietorship, or S corporation structure still supports their income and long-term goals.Legitimate deductions require legitimate documentation. Home offices, mileage, business travel, content creation, board meetings, and other expenses need a clear business purpose supported by receipts, calendars, logs, and timely records.The right accountant should create measurable value. A low-cost accountant may ultimately cost you more when they fail to identify legal planning opportunities, educate you throughout the year, or help you make strategic decisions before tax season. About the Guest: Barbara Schreihans is the founder and CEO of Your Tax Coach, creator of the Write Off Your Life and Write Off Your Real Estate courses, and host of the Life-Changing Money podcast. After earning her master’s degree in tax and beginning her career at one of the world’s largest accounting firms, Barbara built a tax strategy company focused on helping entrepreneurs and high-income business owners understand their finances, legally reduce their tax burden, and keep more of what they earn. Through proactive planning and practical education, she helps business owners make taxes part of their broader wealth-building strategy.

Go to grad school. Become a great doctor. Open a clinic. Help enough people. Work hard. Build a successful practice. Make plenty of money. Be happy. That was the promise. Yet here you are. Maybe your clinic is thriving. Maybe you're still trying to get it off the ground. Either way, there's a good chance you're chasing the same thing almost every healthcare entrepreneur is chasing: the belief that the next milestone will finally make everything click. The Rich Doc Playbook was created to challenge that assumption. Not because building a successful clinic isn't important, but because we believe there's a bigger conversation our profession isn't having. Rich Doc Playbook

About

You didn't go through years of school, clinical hours, and board exams to end up exhausted, underpaid relative to your potential, and wondering if this is really it. But if you're a healthcare practice owner who feels more trapped than free, more drained than inspired, and more stuck than successful — you're not broken. You're just underleveraged. She Slays the Day is the podcast for healthcare professionals who refuse to settle for a career that looks good on paper but feels like a grind in real life. Hosted by Dr. Lauryn Brunclik — chiropractor, clinic growth expert, brand strategist, and the voice behind the Rich Doc Energy movement — this show is built for providers who are ready to stop trading time for income and start building something bigger. Each week, Lauryn brings unfiltered conversations, sharp strategy, and the kind of honesty most business podcasts are afraid of. She breaks down the real mechanics of growing a practice without losing yourself in it: clinic optimization, team systems, wealth building, personal branding, diversifying income, and designing a life with actual freedom in it — not just the Instagram version. This isn't motivational fluff. This is tactical, direct, and built for action. Whether you're a chiropractor, dentist, physical therapist, veterinarian, or any private practice owner in healthcare, you'll find episodes that speak to the specific challenges of running a clinic while trying to build wealth, raise a family, and stay sane. Through solo deep dives and interviews with top entrepreneurs, industry disruptors, and experts across business, finance, and leadership, the show covers what it actually takes to go from overwhelmed clinic owner to CEO of a rich life — one built on leverage, not just labor. With over six years on air, 350+ episodes, and hundreds of thousands of downloads, the show has become one of the most trusted voices in the healthcare business space. Thousands of practice owners tune in every week not just for the strategy but for the energy — the kind that makes you feel like you can actually pull this off.
