Have you ever had a question about something that you were just too hesitant to ask? Depending on the situation, asking can feel slightly awkward so we often just avoid it all together. And it’s no different with your prospective patients. They often have questions rolling around in their mind yet don’t feel comfortable enough to come right out and ask them. 
 
So how can we make it easier for them to get their questions answered before they even ask them? The more you know about your ideal patient, the easier this becomes. When you can easily talk about the elephant in the room (money, time, results, expectations, etc.), the result is an abundance of trust and good will.
 
This podcast is a must-listen if you want to help your prospective patients feel confident that you’ve got their back and can help them achieve their health goals. You’ll hear my curated list of 20 questions to ask, putting you in the driver’s seat and helping your patient feel much more comfortable working with you. 💪
 
In this episode you’ll learn:
👉 How to help a prospective patient feel more comfortable working with you. 
👉 How to communicate your expertise and approach in a friendly, approachable manner.

As a dedicated wellness practitioner, you pour your heart and soul into caring for your patients but sometimes, retaining them for the long term can feel like an uphill battle. Without effective strategies in place, you might find yourself struggling to fill your schedule and keep your patients coming back.
 
Lucky for you, in this podcast episode, we’re tackling a topic that will change the way you attract patients, helping them to say YES to working with you before you even offer!
 
It’s time to say goodbye to those drive-by wellness hookups and hello to long-term, committed patients who genuinely want to get better! 💫
 
The way to do this is through a "Get Acquainted Call." This simple yet powerful strategy is your ticket to filtering out the ‘tire kickers’ who aren’t really interested in long-term health, and instead, building lasting relationships with the ones who do. By offering a brief Get Acquainted Call, you not only get to know more about their priorities but can set the stage for a successful partnership. 🤝
 
So, if you’re looking to grow a practice that is FULL of your ideal patients, consider shifting your “free consult” to a Get Acquainted Call!
 
In this episode you’ll hear:
👉 The power of the "Get Acquainted Call" in attracting the best patients.
👉 How to engage and qualify potential clients within minutes.
👉 Crafting irresistible offers that keep your patients committed for the long haul.
👉 The art of confidently steering clear of troublesome patients while nurturing the right ones.

In this episode, we're going to transform your networking skills from zero to hero. Say goodbye to sweaty palms and nervous chatter – I’ll make sure you have the confidence and the strategies you need to become a Networking Ninja! 🥷🌟

Over time, we end up accumulating random questionnaires, surveys, and evaluations to include as part of our new patient intake process. And while each one provides another perspective on what might be going on, this isn’t the best experience for your patient who is already overwhelmed and in need of your help. 
 
Having to think through and complete each intake form may feel ‘comprehensive’ to you but to the patient, it’s overkill. Not to mention the time it takes for you to review all of them and try to make sense of the information before seeing your patient for the first time. 
 
Working on your intake forms might not be the most appealing thing to do – but trust me, when they include the right kind of questions, it makes your job so much easier and lets your patient’s know that you are serious about getting to the root of their issue. And that’s exactly what we’re going to talk about in this podcast. 
 
From demographic information to medical history, lifestyle habits, and beyond, I’ll explain how to design an intake form that provides a comprehensive overview of your patients' health and sets the stage for personalized care. 
 
So pull up a chair, grab a pen and paper, and let’s give your intake forms a makeover!
 
In this episode you’ll hear:
👉 Why having fewer forms is a better option for your patients.
👉 How to streamline and optimize your new patient intake process.
👉 Key questions and sections to include in your intake form to get the best information possible.
👉 Practical tips for incorporating your new forms into your new patient flow.

Sometimes, we just miss the mark. The best laid plans just didn’t work out the way you thought and now, you need to figure out how to do it differently. This process is what I like to call a Do Over Day.  🎯 
A 'Do Over Day' gives you the opportunity to build something even better when the gears of your business seem to be grinding against each other. It's like a strategic pause, allowing you to step back, assess, and recalibrate your approach. Think of it as a reset button, but with a structured plan for how to move forward.
So, what exactly does a 'Do Over Day' entail? Let's break it down into four essential parts:
Step 1: Identify the Successes
Begin by acknowledging what worked well. Celebrate the wins, regardless of how big or small. 
Step 2: Recognize the Failures
Mistakes are inevitable, especially in business. It’s important to acknowledge where we missed the mark and use the experience to shape how we move forward.  
Step 3: Creating a Different Plan
Now that you have information about your successes and failures, it's time to redesign what you want to do differently next time.
Step 4: Your Non-Negotiables
Lastly, it’s important to identify your non-negotiables. These are the things you are not willing to give up or compromise on. 
A 'Do Over Day' allows you to take a step back and re-evaluate any situation from a neutral perspective, helping you to take control of your business, making it work for you, rather than the other way around. ✅
In this episode you’ll learn how to:
👉 Identify what's working and what isn't in your business.
👉 Stay curious without judging the situation
👉 Define your non-negotiables
👉 Implement your own Do Over Day
