In this episode, I share one of the biggest patterns I’ve seen in my own life and in the lives of the most successful people I know. Before anything becomes real in your world, you have to be willing to see it long before it exists. I talk about the early days of Corrective Chiropractic, when I set alarms for 3 AM and 3 PM just to remind myself of the goal I was chasing. I share how we used paper plates to track new patients, why one of my docs covered his office in Larry Bird photos, and how these simple rituals created belief and momentum. This isn’t about hoping for a handout. It’s about taking obsessive ownership over the life you want to build. If you’ve been waiting for circumstances to shift, this episode will remind you that clarity and consistent action attract the very things you’re looking for.

In this episode, I open up about something I wish I learned a lot earlier in my career. I talk about the biggest trap chiropractors fall into… chasing shiny objects instead of strengthening the business that’s already working. I share the mistakes I made investing in gyms, yoga studios, PI clinics, and franchises, and how all of them pulled me away from the one thing that was actually producing seventy five percent of my income.

I walk through the moment everything changed for me, how I built a vertically integrated flywheel, and why every program I run today — Growth Summit, Chiro180, Adventure Summit, Empire — all work together instead of pulling me in different directions.

You’ll hear practical examples of how chiropractors can tighten their systems, elevate patient retention, increase revenue, and build new opportunities that actually support their core business rather than distract from it.

If you’ve ever felt stretched thin, burned out, or tempted by the next big idea, this episode is going to hit home. It’s a reminder that your biggest breakthrough is probably already inside your practice… you just need the structure to let it grow.

In this episode, I’m breaking down the one word that quietly shaped the last 15 years of my life: yes.

I’ll share the real stories behind the opportunities I almost missed — walking into CrossFit Peachtree when I didn’t know a soul in Atlanta, saying yes to dinners I was too tired to attend, showing up to networking events where I felt like the smallest person in the room, and how each of those moments opened doors I never could’ve planned.

I also unpack what leaders like Richard Branson and Ryan Serhant teach us about saying yes before we feel ready, and how that mindset can completely reroute the direction of your life and business.

If you’ve been feeling stuck, hesitant, or waiting for the “right time,” this episode will hit home. Because the truth is simple:

Your next breakthrough is usually one yes away.

In this episode, I unpack what I learned from our recent Corrective Chiropractic company retreat and why it became one of the most defining leadership moments of my year. We dug into the 6 Growth Engine Frameworks, the full team survey, and the real work that goes into building trust, communication, and alignment.

This wasn’t about checking boxes or reacting to issues. It was about slowing down, listening deeper, and recommitting to the kind of leadership that builds a legacy instead of a quick win. I share how Lencioni’s 5 Dysfunctions of a Team shaped our path forward, what I discovered about myself, and how these insights are transforming how I lead my clinics and develop my people.

If you’re a chiropractor or a leader who wants to build something that lasts, this conversation will give you a behind-the-scenes look at the mindset and the intentionality it takes to grow a strong, unified, high-performing team.

In October 2006, I decided to do something I had never done before — run a marathon. That single decision became the catalyst for every major change that followed in my life.

From that first finish line came a series of challenges — sprint triathlons, Ironmans, swimming across Alcatraz, running 100 miles, completing Navy SEAL training, and eventually creating Adventure Summit. But what I learned along the way is that doing hard things isn’t just about the physical.

It’s about mindset, belief, and the discipline to confront what’s uncomfortable — whether it’s giving up alcohol, having tough conversations, or stepping fully into leadership.

This episode is about how one hard thing can change everything — and how every challenge, physical or not, becomes training for the life you’re meant to live.

🎧 If you’ve ever felt stuck or afraid to take the next step, this episode might be the nudge you need to start your own hard thing.

Most chiropractors are still operating with the old-school mindset of Always Be Closing. But what if the real key to growth isn’t closing—it’s future pacing? In this episode, Dr. Austin Cohen breaks down how shifting your focus to Always Future Pacing transforms the way patients commit, engage, and stay. Learn how to create anticipation every visit, build trust through clarity, and make every touchpoint count—before, during, and after care.

When I was full-time in practice, I was adjusting all day and building businesses at night. It wasn’t easy — and honestly, there were seasons where I was running on fumes. But over time, I learned that the secret to growth isn’t doing more — it’s structuring better.

In this episode, I share the exact systems and rhythms that helped me stay focused as a CEO while still being fully present in practice and at home. From my Sunday night planning routine to my “Life Pulse” book and parking lot system for ideas, I walk through the small habits that keep me grounded and organized even when life gets busy.

You’ll learn how I plan my weeks, how I use agendas to protect my time, and why scheduling moments like pumpkin carving or podcasting with my daughter keeps me present where it matters most.

If you’ve ever struggled to juggle multiple roles — doctor, leader, parent, or entrepreneur — this episode will give you a framework to design your time with intention and purpose.

This week, I’m joined by a very special guest — my 10-year-old daughter, Harlow.

She recently shared a story with me that hit home: the time she studied the night before a test and got a bad grade… and how everything changed when she started studying a week in advance. That small shift in preparation led to a huge difference in results — not just for school, but as a reminder for all of us in business and life.

In this episode, we connect her story to three key lessons in chiropractic and leadership:

1. Preparation creates consistency — success happens before the adjustment or the launch.
2. Small daily habits compound — just like studying over time, patient retention is built one visit at a time.
3. Strategic planning wins — the best businesses don’t react; they anticipate.

This is a fun and heartfelt conversation about the power of preparation, consistency, and what it really takes to get better results — whether you’re studying for a test, building a practice, or leading a team.

When I asked James Dumoulin from School of Hard Knocks what separates millionaires from billionaires, his answer hit me hard:
“Billionaires think in decades, not days.”

In this episode, I unpack what that really means for chiropractors. Too many of us make decisions based on what’s right in front of us — the next paycheck, the next patient, the next week’s schedule — instead of how those choices shape our next ten years.

I’ll share the mindset shift that helped me move from being reactive to proactive and how this thinking transformed my business, my team, and my life. From building systems that last to developing loyal leaders and creating a long-term vision, this episode is about playing the long game — because true wealth, impact, and freedom don’t come from speed… they come from staying power.
