I have been at this whole doctor and soft tissue thing for going on 8 years now. I have made so many mistakes that I wish I could get back and a lot of those mistakes kept people from getting the true care they needed and more than likely put their future health in a bad place.

I am still very hard on myself to this day and often think back of the failures I had early on in my career and even later in my career.

We all mess this up, some more than others, but we all do it to some level:

We tell patients what they want to hear, instead of telling them what they need to hear.

I go into a deep dive of the pitfalls and how to fix this huge problem immediately!

I actually got the idea for this podcast from the Clinic Director at our office Peak Injury Solutions, Dr. Dani Hommer.

We were coming up with some content ideas and this topic really stuck about how we all are guilty as practitioners of always trying to be on the "cutting edge" of the new treatment methods and modalities.

We go and learn this over a weekend seminar and come back and swear by it for about a month, then it goes right back into the tool belt to be used once in a while.

What this does is adds confusion to the practitioner and the patient about what is really going on and what is really working. 

We tend to get very ego driven as practitioners and want to have more certificates and plaques on the wall, instead of focusing on the basics of what really works:

1. Better diagnostic skills.

2. Better palpation.

3. Better treatment.

4. Better communication.

Then double down on all of the above and stop chasing the shiny new object and get good at the boring basics. Boring gets results, boring helps your patients and boring makes you more money.

This is our 3rd installment in our coaching series and these by far have been our most downloaded episodes to date!

On today's show we go into the following questions:

Every once in a while I like to do a podcast where I share more mindset/tactical stuff that has really helped me over the years to do what I call "Win the Day."

The life of practitioners and one that owns their own business can be utter chaos at almost every turn and one bad event can cause our whole day to be wreaked. 

One of the main goals of this podcast and my content is to help other practitioners get control back of their business and clinic so they can show up better for their patients, family, and community and really get people better so they avoid surgery and the horrible path of pain management.

Over the years I have been doing different styles of morning journaling or reflecting, I've tried them all and this one has worked best for me recently and even shared it with friends. Every morning I commit 5 minutes to this and ask myself the following questions:

 1. What person do I want to send a token of thanks to? 

2. What am I excited for? 

3. What things could stress me out today and how would the best version of myself handle it? 

4. What are the things that made me uncomfortable yesterday? 

5. What is the ONE thing I need to get done today?

I go in deeper on the podcast of how to interpret the questions and share my own insights.

I really enjoyed making this episode and showing the true power of become a specialist that sticks to a specific niche when it comes to diagnosing and treating musculoskeletal injuries.

Many of us (and I am just as guilty) think and have been programed to the idea that we need to be a "full body specialist." We fall victim to the idea of, "jack of all trades, master of none."

In this episode I make a strong argument for why you should niche out and only work a certain area of the body and really pitch yourself as a true specialist!

It gets done in the orthopedic model everyday, so why wouldn't it work for us?

On today's episode we dive deep into the idea of getting rid of those members of your team that are what considered to be "toxic" or "non-believers."

As practitioners we are so focused on treating patients and communicating that sometimes we don't take the time to truly evaluate our office staff properly.

In this episode we give some tips on how to get rid of toxic people, how to get your staff to be true believers and some real talk on getting the highest level and care to people who need your help!

On today's episode, I just get right down to it and hopefully, it hits some people in the right way and in the exact way they need to be motivated. I have preached this so much on this podcast and it's the honest truth...

If you are a practitioner that specializes in Soft Tissue Treatment, to the fact that you actually call yourself a "Soft Tissue Specialist," then you deserve to be paid accordingly and charge what your true value is.

There are some really bad money mindsets amongst us soft tissue doctors and I used to be guilty of it as well. Here's the thing...

Your skillset and amount of value you are providing to patients is usually 10x of what you are actually charging and far more valuable than all the nonsense that is out there in the injury world (surgeries, injections, stem cells, decompression, and lasers,) so it is your duty and obligation to charge what you are worth and not ever have a moment where you feel "guilty" about it or feel like you are selling your soul.

This is the first episode in our podcast's history where we will be sharing a recording call of a coaching session with one of our clients who actually lives in Australia and is just finishing up Chiropractic school and already has training in advanced soft tissue training systems.

In the call today we cover the following:

Practitioner self-care. Any thoughts or strategies for preserving the health of hands, particularly thumbs, for the long-term

Sciatic nerve adhesion at the hip external rotators and hamstrings. Is this a hugely under-diagnosed and untreated problem? I've had some cases where some weird hip and lower extremity issues (chronic) have disappeared after addressing the nerve path. Outside of the Integrative Diagnosis system, I've never seen it acknowledged as a potential problem, but the results for the patient are significant

The best recommendation for protecting the cervical spine while sleeping. Pillow recommendations?

They have been extremely productive for both parties and the hope is to help others out there as well!
