In this episode of the PT Entrepreneur Podcast, Doc Danny Mate discusses the mindset necessary for starting and scaling a physical therapy business. He emphasizes that a “what if it doesn’t work” mindset can sabotage success before it even starts. Using his own experiences, including his time in the Army Baylor PT program, Danny illustrates the challenges of running a cash-based practice and the level of commitment needed to overcome them. He underscores that starting a business is like running a race where you don't know the course, distance, or finish line, making it vital to maintain a “burn the ships” mentality—fully committing to success with no backup plan. Danny also touches on the inspiring results he’s seen from physical therapists who have regained their passion for the profession through entrepreneurship.
