In this episode, I'm joined by one of my closest friends and long-time business sounding boards, Ngaire Turnbull. Ngaire spent 14 years as a practice owner and comes from a family deeply rooted in small business. Every conversation I have with her leaves me thinking differently about business, and this one was no exception. Together we unpack why the start of a new financial year is about much more than compliance. It's a chance to pause, reflect and make intentional decisions about the health of your practice, not just financially, but personally as well.
This episode was inspired by The Cognitive Athlete by Clint Rahe, a book we recently explored in our Connection Book Club. It gave me a completely different way of thinking about the mental demands of running an allied health practice and why so many practice owners are feeling tired, even when they aren't necessarily burnt out.
In this episode, I’m sharing three of the biggest mistakes I’ve made over my 20 years as a practice owner when it comes to pay rises, remuneration, and leading a team. These aren’t payroll mistakes or compliance issues. They’re leadership lessons I’ve learned, sometimes the hard way, about balancing care for my team with care for the health of the business.
About the Podcast
As a small business founder and multi-practice owner, I am on a mission to help other practice owners from falling into the trap of having their businesses run their lives.
When I started my own private practice in 2006 I had no idea how to run a business and serve my clients well. I wasted heaps of time ‘being busy’ and doing things the long way round. That is until I met someone who shared their knowledge and resources with me under full transparency.
On the podcast, we share tips, deeper conversations and wise words to fuel the soul, shift your mindset and inspire you into action so you can continue to create the business and life you enjoy.
