What does it really look like to build a business rooted in healing instead of hustle?
In this episode, Amanda Burg sits down with Dr. Sara Nelson-Gray and Dr. Marisa Bauman, two chiropractors who are redefining what leadership and growth look like inside the wellness space.
Sara shares her journey from chronic illness to founding Freedom Chiropractic in Knoxville—and what it taught her about scaling with alignment, not exhaustion. Marisa opens up about pivoting from journalism to chiropractic care, selling her first practice, and rebuilding a business with deeper purpose and peace.
Together, they unpack what it means to lead from the nervous system up, to honor your intuition in business, and to create brands that feel as good as they look.
You’ll learn:
- How to recognize when you’re forcing growth vs. flowing with it
- The stigma around chiropractic care—and how they’re rewriting the story
- What it means to build a brand rooted in substance, not surface
- Why nervous system regulation is the foundation of sustainable leadership
