122 Answering Your Questions: Team Trouble, Coaching Doubts, and Marketing Woes

I'd love to hear from you 'text the show'

Welcome back to another episode of the Treat Your Business podcast. This week, I’m shaking things up with a Q&A episode, answering real questions from fellow clinic owners like you. I popped a little shoutout on my Instagram and, as always, you lot delivered! I’ve picked out some cracking ones covering team management, investing in coaching (when your partner’s not on board), advice for those of you just starting out, and what to do when your marketing is falling flat.

In this episode, I cover:

• What to do when your team just isn’t as enthusiastic as you (and why that’s actually okay).
• How to think like a business owner, not just a clinician.
• What I’d tell anyone starting a clinic today—including the money talk.
• How to respond when your partner’s worried about coaching investments (grab the wine for this one).
• The social media trap and smarter ways to market your clinic.

There’s a mix of mindset, straight-talking strategy, and real talk about the messy, beautiful rollercoaster of running your own business. Plus, you know I couldn’t resist having a little fun while we’re at it—pens, anyone?

Episode Takeaways:

• You’ll never find someone as passionate about your business as you are. That’s not a problem—it’s your power.
• Know your numbers. Always. Even (especially) when you’re new.
• Coaching isn’t a cost—it’s a fast track (and yes, I may have done a full-on rant about that).
• If social media isn’t working, stop flogging a dead horse. Let’s get visible where it counts.
• Stay in your lane, stop comparing, and remember: no one gives a toss about branded pens.
