Dr. Kevin Christie interviews Dr. Audra Lance, a Nashville-area chiropractor and owner of a cash-based clinic in Brentwood that treats high performers with longer appointments and individualized plans using techniques like DNS and ART.

Dr. Lance shares her path from graduating National University of Health Sciences in 2013 to opening a practice immediately, including early financial hardship, slow growth, and building through mentorship, shadowing, certifications, and authentic community networking. She explains how word-of-mouth led to working with pro athletes and entertainers, and offers guidance on treating recognized clients professionally with flexibility and without being starstruck.

The conversation covers the realities of cash practice scaling, clinical competence alongside positioning and marketing, associate vs. owner career paths, leadership and reinvestment in team benefits, and rebranding.
