The Relationship Between Headcount and Profitability (She Slays Replay)

In this She Slays Replay, Kirby and Lauryn get honest about one of the hardest lessons in practice ownership—more team members don’t always equal more success. They reflect on the early days when lean operations brought in the most profit, and how growing their team too quickly led to stress, inefficiency, and pressure on everyone involved.

This segment dives into the uncomfortable reality that good intentions aren’t enough to sustain a business. From the emotional toll of carrying unnecessary payroll to the ripple effects it has on culture and performance, Kirby and Lauryn unpack how profitability, team size, and leadership pressure are more connected than most chiropractors realize.
