  • A Clinician’s Guide To Setting Boundaries With Clients

    Setting boundaries is the key to better client communication and the secret to your success in any service business. But what happens when your clients have no boundaries? Can they be expected to follow through on their commitments or make improvements? How would you avoid this kind of situation in order to maintain a great relationship with your client?

    Welcome to the “Rehab to Wellness B.O.S.S” Podcast! I'm your host, Kim Nartker, PTA. In this week's episode, I will talk about how setting boundaries and giving clear expectations to your patients will help you to give your patients the best care that you are capable of providing, without being struggle, frustrated & burned out for being overworked, not maintaining the work-life balance you deserved.

    She will touch on such topics as:

    • Define where they are in your program.
    • Identifying what the boundaries are and creating expectations for them; communicating those boundaries to others; receiving feedback and effectively implementing it.
    • Boundaries and expectations are a necessary part of any sort of successful team environment.
    • Be clear and concise on your boundaries and rules & take your emotions out of it.
    • Stop over delivering by giving too much care and not leaving room for improvement in your work schedule.
    • Establish patient expectations. It's important they know what they should expect before they walk in your door.
    • Establish a script and follow it. Never go off track
    • Never let their financial situation keep you from prescribing the care you know that will work.

  • The Stretch Method, How To Prevent Burnout And Start Your Own Stretch Mobility Practice

    Are you frustrated with your job as a physical therapist? Feeling like the path you chose is taking too long to get where you want to be in terms of financial status and levels of autonomy? Do you feel overwhelmed with the constant pressure put upon you by your employer and family members, causing you to evaluate if the job you chose is still the right path for yourself? 

    Welcome to the “Rehab to Wellness B.O.S.S” Podcast! I'm your host, Kim Nartker, PTA. In this week's episode, I will talk about how starting a Stretch Mobility practice can help you achieve your dream work-life balance and help you prevent burn-out to lessen your frustrations and struggles in the Physical Therapy arena and start making a living doing the thing you love — helping people. 

    She will touch on such topics as:

    • Keep your finances in order, it helps you avoid stress and gives you an idea of where you'll be at different points in the future.
    • If your expenses exceed the revenue, you still don't have a business. That's the only rule of a startup - to be successful, your startup must bring in more money than it takes.
    • One of the most important things in life is to have the right mindset. Without it, you won't reach your goals and make mistakes which will lead you down the wrong road.
    • Owning a business is the best way to build on your passion and determination.
    • Stretch Method is bridging the gap in traditional treatment plans by providing care outside of traditional care.
    • Stretch Mobility has a unique approach to “care for life” that is based on stretching and manual therapy. Both are better known as something you would see in a physical therapy clinic or sports rehabilitation center, with a focus on each person as an individual case with specific needs
    • Creating an opportunity to rehab professionals who are driven and want to help people who want to live their best lives by delivering affiliation and certification to support and guide you through business ownership.

    • Making a change in your mindset so that the cycle of your life will be broken and be improved.

  • How Authenticity Can Make You An Authority In Your Industry with Brittany Gregorio

    Are you a new entrepreneur looking to start a wellness business and target a wellness customer, or are you the owner of a PT private practice who has already established a brand with your physical therapy services and wants to incorporate a wellness service into your practice? How do you want your brand as a whole to be seen? What is your core value as an entrepreneur and as a human that will make you stand out in the market?  

    Welcome to the Rehab to Wellness B.O.S.S. Podcast! I'm your host, Kim Nartker, PTA. In this week's episode, I am joined by Brittany Gregorio. Content Marketing Strategist & Copywriter Brittany Gregorio started her own company after several years in the virtual assistant space. As her VA business rapidly grew, Britt began to see significant gaps in the industry. She had clients that didn't know what their message was, and had no regard for content. Britt knew there had to be a better way. Businesses and brands needed authenticity, more importantly, they needed a content marketing strategy. As CEO of Crafted Content, Britt and her team help entrepreneurs worldwide create content and implement a comprehensive content strategy that brings measurable results.

    They will touch on such topics as:

    • Content marketing falls under the umbrella of marketing
    • If you don't have your content where it needs to be, nothing else matters.
    • The most important thing for most entrepreneurs to understand is that you are what makes their business unique.
    • Take your top three differentiators and incorporate them into your content.
    • You don’t need to tackle every single social media channel at once. Pick your favorite and tune in to it.
    • Understand your audience's needs and how to solve their problems.
    • Don’t be afraid to utilize your personal life journey and stories in your content.
    • Don’t share your day-to-day life events, but rather share the major life events that have shaped not only who you are but who you are as an entrepreneur. At the end of the day, your content is about standing by your core values.
    • As a new entrepreneur, start to post with a simple introduction as to what you do and how you are going to serve your people, because at the end of the day, your content is about them, not you.
    • Don’t be so focused on just informational content.
    • When posting on social media, it must not consist of novel-like posts.

  • What You Need to Know About Your Branding with Stefanie Pinsley

    In the healthcare world, how much do you know about business? How does your brand make someone feel? How do people perceive you and what is the vibe that comes off? How can you provide some sort of real-value information to help solve your ideal client’s problem? 

    Welcome to the Rehab to Wellness B.O.S.S. Podcast! I'm your host, Kim Nartker, PTA. In this week's episode, I am joined by Stefanie Pinsley. Stefanie is a personal branding coach who helps business owners understand why branding is important in business and how to create their own. Stephanie believes that branding is no longer what we tell ourselves, it is what other people say about your business. Figuring out your brand style, brand identity, and the foundation of your business is what makes it successful.

    They will touch on such topics as:

    • Branding is both the tangible and intangible emotional aspects that come with your brand.
    • You have to be intentional about how you are building your brand. To wire your brand away, you would want to be with intention.
    • When you brand your business, you are creating consistency in terms of your visual identity and the message that you are sending across to people.
    • The more your brand sees something, the more you will like it, which is why people will stay loyal to brands simply because they know the best and they have known it the longest.
    • Consistency helps to build awareness, which leads to trust and makes your brand more professional.
    • Branding is the best way to differentiate yourself from your competitors.
    • Build a brand that speaks for your clients.
    • If you want to be successful, you should definitely give some thought and strategy to your brand identity, content, and social strategy.

  • The Sales Process You Need To Know With Becky Colwell

    Are you always worried about feeling the deep ego within you when it comes to giving services to your clients? How will you connect with your clients in order to understand what they are looking for? Are you a practice owner that is currently having a problem with revenue streams and is looking to add wellness services?

    Welcome to the "Rehab to Wellness B.O.S.S" Podcast! I'm your host, Kim Nartker, PTA. In this week's episode, I am joined by Becky Colwell. Becky is on a mission to change the awful perception of sales, as the only time we ever notice being sold to is when it’s done badly. Sales is not a personality trait, it’s just another business skill that supports our success. Small business owners, in particular, do not have access to sales training that's aligned with their values and learning sales with Heart to Heart Sales™ means that the client is always first & foremost in our minds.

    We will touch on such topics as:

    • Our experiences with sales are only based on bad sales experiences that we encountered in our lives.
    • You will no longer have those uneasy feelings if you make it about your client and whether or not it is right for them.
    • This is about what you can do for your clients but not personally.
    • The deep ego gets in the way because you make the sale about you.
    • When it's all about your clients, there will definitely be no ego involved.
    • Selling starts when your clients reach out to you.
    • A cash-based practice can do wellness therapy with a client that would not qualify for insurance, but we all know that an insurance company is only going to pay you to be able to do functional things relating to functional activities that limit you
    • A well-care system is more based on what a customer wants and desires.
    • Confidence is gained through conversational experience, because learning sales skills is primarily about applying them and becoming more confident in how you approach things.
    • Build trust factors through conversations.
    • The easiest thing to do with objections is to ask questions.

  • FEAR- How It Will Hold You Back From Your Business Dreams

    Are you afraid to express your passion and vision because you feel safe and secure in your life right now? Not even sure if you're willing to take that first step because you're worried about failing? What if that fear that holds you back can create a bigger impact into your life and your business?

    Welcome to the "Rehab to Wellness B.O.S.S" Podcast! I'm your host, Kim Nartker, PTA. In this week's episode, I will talk about How to use your fear to empower yourself to dream bigger and reach your goals, and to transform it into fuel for your ultimate success by stepping outside of your comfort zone.

    I will touch on such topics as:

    • When fear gets the best of you, you find yourself stuck and unable to move forward with your dreams or plans.
    • The thoughts that you have in your mind, and the feelings that you have in your heart are two different things.
    • How can you turn fear into success?
    • When you feel uncomfortable, that's when success is going to happen. You are taking risks, innovating and learning.
    • Write down your dream and then start working towards making it a reality. It won't happen overnight but if you take small steps each day, you'll notice changes along the way.
    • It is time for you to step into what you were created to be and unleash your true potential in life.
    • Your comfort place will limit you from achieving your goals that you set for yourself.
    • It is important to be with people that inspired you to achieve your next goal and continue to lead you the way forward.

    Welcome to the "Rehab to Wellness B.O.S.S" Podcast! I'm your host, Kim Nartker, PTA. In this week's episode, I am joined by Will Butler.

    They will touch on such topics as:

    • Success is more than one single set. It takes reps just like in exercise.
    • Reflecting on the family’s history that made him end up as a PT Finance.
    • Consider the needs of the people you are taking care of.
    • Slowly build from the bottom and learn from your fear.
