In this episode of Better Skills. Better Doctors. I talk about the fear of success in growing an acupuncture practice: the fear of it actually working. I share a Blueprint Call where a Harmonize student told Michael and me he didn’t need to be rich.
I also share a Fit Call with a practitioner who believed a busy clinic meant missing time with her kids, and a friend whose fear of not having enough turned into a fear of losing it all. You’ll hear how your survival brain attaches a cost to success, and why so many practitioners trade a big goal for a safer one when it starts to feel scary. Then I walk you through how to rewrite your goals so the identity you’re stepping into becomes the goal and the number becomes the target. That way, every goal you set builds the version of you who can handle the result.

In this episode of Better Skills. Better Doctors., I share why lasting fulfillment in your acupuncture practice, and your life, starts with what you give yourself. I open with a scene from Yellowstone and connect it to the way so many of us set goals, change our schedules, grow our revenue, and look to the people in our lives to finally make us feel relaxed, free, loved, or appreciated.
I call this the “once I get” belief, also known as the arrival fallacy. I talk about why the good feeling fades and how mind management lets you create that feeling for yourself. You’ll hear how this showed up in my own Boston practice, a few simple ways to give yourself appreciation and rest today, and the one question I want you to sit with this week.

Choosing your next acupuncture continuing education course is about more than the skill you'll walk away with.
In this episode of Better Skills. Better Doctors. I talk about why the people in the room shape your growth as much as the curriculum does. Entrepreneurship in Chinese medicine can be lonely, and seminars are often the one place where people understand what you do. When every room is full of colleagues at your level, you can only learn what you already know.
I share the story of a $30,000 mentorship with a self-made billionaire, and why Michael and I saw it as a chance to leapfrog years of mistakes. You'll learn how to judge your next training, course, or coaching program by who will be there, how to pick a room where you're a little out of your depth, and how to stay curious around people who are ahead of you.

What does growing an acupuncture practice look like when you design it around the life you actually want? On this special episode of Better Skills. Better Doctors. I sit down with Dr. Eileen Li, acupuncturist, clinic owner, and creator with over a million followers. Eileen shares how becoming a mom reshaped the way she practices, why she raised her rates twice in one year and still kept a waitlist, and how defining her dream client led her to a simple realization: she is the niche.
We talk about the book Big Enough by Lee LeFever and what it means to reverse engineer your business from your life values, including why niching creates time abundance, a smaller pharmacy, and fewer decisions at the end of a long clinic day. Eileen also gives her first move for any practitioner who feels boxed into one clinic model: run an internal audit of your brick and mortar, then get honest about what else lights you up, like teaching or hosting retreats.

A lot of us were taught to start as general practitioners and earn a niche once we had enough experience. In this episode, I ask what happens when you flip that order.
I share how my first-year idealism shaped the way I believed a practice had to be built, why general practice is the hardest business model to start with, and what came into focus when I specialized in orthopedics. I also walk you through a recent coaching session where my client weighed neuropathy against postherpetic neuralgia for her signature offer, and why the less crowded niche became her wide blue ocean.

In this episode of Better Skills. Better Doctors. I'm talking about a habit most practitioners don't know they have: answering the question "who are you" entirely from the past.
Your history is a record of what happened. The moment you start letting it decide what's possible next, it becomes a ceiling.

In this episode of Better Skills. Better Doctors. I'm talking about potential, and specifically why the gap between where you are and where you could be has very little to do with your capability.
It starts at the gym, where I kept surprising myself lifting in kilograms, and only got nervous when I converted to pounds. The weight never changed. My thought about the number did.

In this episode of Better Skills. Better Doctors. I'm talking about what happens to your circle when you start doing well, why it happens, and how to shrink your world on purpose instead of letting other people's reactions shrink you.
It starts with a coaching call where a client, fully booked through the end of 2026, told me she can't talk to her Chinese medicine colleagues anymore without getting shot down. Nothing is going wrong. That's actually the point.

In this episode of Better Skills. Better Doctors. I'm talking about how I went from tiptoeing around sales and apologizing for it to genuinely loving it, and why that shift changed everything.
I get into what's actually underneath the discomfort, why your attitude about sales is running your business whether you're paying attention to it or not, and what it means about your belief in your own work if the thought of being misunderstood still rattles you.

In this episode of Better Skills. Better Doctors. I'm talking about why the wrong patients keep showing up, and why the answer has nothing to do with your location, your fees, or the economy.
It starts with an Instagram comment, and it leads somewhere most practitioners don't want to go: your messaging is a filter, and you built it. The patients you're attracting are the ones you asked for.
