    Are paid ads a "button" you can press to get new patients, or a black hole where your marketing budget goes to die? In this episode, Will Humphreys sits down with Arman Ananian, founder of the performance marketing agency Doing Something Rare. Arman pulls back the curtain on why most outpatient private practices fail at digital marketing, and it’s rarely because of the ads themselves.

You’ll learn how to identify "garbage" leads, why your front desk might be accidentally killing your ROI, and how the future of patient acquisition lies in the marriage of AI and human touch. Key Takeaways The Follow-Up Gap: Why a "good" cost-per-lead means nothing if your team isn't calling them within minutes.The AI Revolution: How Arman uses AI to handle after-hours inquiries and qualify leads 24/7 without losing the human connection.Qualifying for Quality: Why you should stop chasing $1 leads and start asking the hard questions that filter for high-LTV (Life Time Value) patients.The "Six-Month Lie": How to tell if your agency is actually optimizing your campaigns or just collecting a retainer.Purpose-Driven Scaling: Arman’s unique approach to building a global team that provides generational wealth for Armenian families while dominating the US market.We’re on a mission to bring you the builders, the disruptors, and the legends who are changing the game in private practice and beyond.

    Why Your Subconscious is the Missing Link to Physical Healing with Dr. Brandy Cummings

    Have you ever felt like you’re running against the wind with a parachute strapped to your back? You’re doing the detoxes, taking the supplements, and following the protocols, yet the results just aren't sticking. In this episode of the Will Power Podcast, we sit down with Dr. Brandy Cummings, a clinical nutritionist and functional medicine expert who discovered that the "missing link" in chronic illness isn't always a physical one. After uncovering her own deep-seated traumas and seeing her physical health transform overnight, Dr. Brandy now helps patients and practitioners address the 95% of the mind that actually runs the show: the subconscious. In This Episode, We Discuss: The 5% vs. 95% Rule: Why your conscious "goal-setter" mind is often at war with your subconscious "goal-getter" programing.The "Away-From" Motivation Trap: How the language you use (e.g., "I don't want to be in pain") actually calls in more of the symptoms you're trying to avoid.The Physicality of Emotion: How unresolved anger, shame, and fear manifest as chronic neck pain, thyroid issues, and skin conditions.Dr. Brandy’s Personal Transformation: A vulnerable look at how clearing 30 years of stagnant emotional energy led to her body releasing 40 pounds of "emotional inflammation" and purging physical toxins.The "Analytical Wedge": What hypnosis actually is (and isn't) and how it helps align your mind to stop self-sabotage.Perception is Projection: Using your "difficult" patients or relationships as a mirror to find your own areas for growth.Join the Conversation! We want to hear from you! Does your physical body have a "message" you’ve been ignoring? Or perhaps you have a topic you’d love for us to dive into next?

    How Nervous System Regulation Can End Chronic Suffering with Beth Winkler

    Are you living in a state of constant "fight or flight"? For many, chronic pain, headaches, and burnout aren't just physical injuries—they are signs of a nervous system that has forgotten how to feel safe. In this episode of the Will Power Podcast, we sit down with Beth Winkler, a Physical Therapist with 30 years of experience and a private practice owner, who shares her personal journey from 12 years of chronic pain to total recovery through brain retraining. Beth breaks down the emerging science of neuroplasticity and nervous system regulation, explaining why we can’t "think" our way out of trauma and why "microdosing safety" is the key to lasting health. Whether you are a leader looking to show up stronger for your clients or someone battling persistent symptoms, this conversation offers a roadmap to getting back in the driver’s seat of your own healing. Key Takeaways: The "Stress Bucket" Theory: Understand how physical injuries, overdue bills, and past traumas all fill the same neurological bucket, eventually leading to symptoms like back pain or panic attacks.Top-Down vs. Bottom-Up Healing: Why talking about trauma isn't enough; we must use the body as a "translator" to communicate safety to the brain’s fear center.Neuroplasticity – The Science of Hope: If the brain can learn a pain pattern, it can unlearn it. Beth shares the fascinating "Reverse Bicycle" analogy to explain how neural pathways work.Microdosing Safety: Why 5 minutes of regulation 3–5 times a day is more effective than an hour-long session once a week.The Power of Processing: What "feeling your emotions" actually looks like in practice and how it dissipates physical symptoms in 60–90 seconds.Resources Mentioned: Book: The Way Out by Alan GordonBook: The Way to Integrity by Martha BeckResearch: Dr. John Sarno’s work on Mind-Body ConnectionPodcast: Bialik Breakdown (Mayim Bialik)Podcast: The School of Greatness (Lewis Howes)Connect with Beth Winkler: Website: Magnolia Physical TherapyYouTube: Search "Beth Winkler" for educational tools and guided meditations.Send a text Virtual Rockstars specialize in helping support or replace all non-clinical roles.
