In this episode, I’m bringing back one of the most popular episodes of the podcast from all the way back in 2017—and it’s just as relevant today as it was then.
I sat down with Mike Michalowicz, the mastermind behind Profit First, to explore how group practices can use his proven system to finally gain control over their business finances.
Back when we recorded this, I had just discovered his book, Profit First, and was in the early stages of implementing the system into my own practice. To say it was a game-changer would be an understatement! I went from not taking a profit in my business to consistently paying myself what I deserved, and that shift happened in just a few months.
In this conversation, Mike and I cover:
A real profit assessment from a group practice owner (with a downloadable PDF so you can follow along).
How the Profit First method can transform your practice’s financial health.
The power of niching in boosting profitability.
How to implement Profit First not just in your business, but in your personal life as well.
It’s not just about cutting costs—Mike talks about how to increase margins too!
Mike’s own experience using Profit First in his personal life, and his biggest piece of advice for anyone just getting started.
If you’ve ever felt like you’re working hard but still don’t know where all the money is going, this episode is for you.

Ever wondered why so many women pour their hearts and souls into their group practices but still find themselves struggling to hit those higher revenue marks? Unfortunately, this is an all too common occurrence.
We all know that running a business as a woman comes with its own unique set of challenges, but the real question is: what can we do about it?
In this episode, I sit down with Racheal Cook to pull back the curtain on the stark realities that women face in the business world—like the fact that although we own nearly half of all small businesses, we’re only generating a tiny slice of the revenue pie.
But don't worry, we’re not just here to point out the problems. Racheal dishes out actionable strategies you can start using today to close that gap and take your group practice to the next level.
Here’s a glimpse of what we cover in this episode:
We get real about the numbers—why women own 44% of small businesses but generate only 4% of total revenue.
The often-overlooked barriers women face when trying to secure funding and how to navigate around them.
We discuss why understanding your financial metrics isn’t just important—it’s essential for your practice’s growth.
Why building a strong, supportive network is a game-changer for your success and how to start cultivating one today.
It’s time to bridge the gap—because we all deserve to see our hard work translate into the financial success we’ve earned.
