We're kicking off Season 6 with Christin Trujillo, the financial guru who's helped countless med spa owners transform their struggling practices into profitable powerhouses. As Senior Financial Consultant and Co-Founding Partner of Maven Financial Partners, Christin has a unique superpower: she can tell you exactly what's happening in your practice just by looking at your numbers—without ever stepping foot inside your doors.

In this raw, no-nonsense conversation, Christin reveals the brutal truth about why so many practices are struggling right now. Spoiler alert: it's not just the economy. With double the number of med spas competing for the same patients compared to just a few years ago, the game has completely changed. The days of patients just showing up because you exist are over.

But here's the good news—Christin doesn't just diagnose the problems, she provides the best path to a solution. She shares the real story behind why one multi-location practice was down over 1,000 appointments but still managed to increase revenue by 15%. The secret? They stopped chasing appointment volume and started maximizing every single patient who walked through their doors.

This episode is packed with the kind of insights that make you want to immediately call your team and implement changes. Christin breaks down why your front desk person (yes, the one doing TikTok dances in the back) shouldn't be your only hope for converting those expensive Google ad leads into paying patients. She explains why rebooking should be as automatic as breathing, and how top-performing practices maintain 80-90% utilization rates while others struggle to fill their schedules.

You'll discover the difference between being busy and being profitable, why revenue per hour is the metric that matters most, and how to know when it's time to hire versus when you need to get out of your own way. Christin also tackles the tough conversations about pricing, team compensation, and the leadership skills that separate thriving practices from those barely surviving.

Whether you're a new practice owner drowning in the chaos of wearing every hat, or an established practice looking to scale without losing your mind, this episode delivers the roadmap you've been searching for. It's equal parts wake-up call and action plan, delivered with a little tough love that only comes from someone who's "been there, done that" countless times!
