info_outlineLouise Reaney is a UK based podiatrist and owner of LR Podiatry. Without knowing, Lousie became an accidental business owner and with that came a surprising amount of stress, mental fatigue, exhaustion and as she explains, "podiatry was boring the arse off me".
But, this all changed three years ago when Louise made a conscious effort to do something about the boredom that had set in, resulting in her becoming a happy podiatrist who now looks forward to working every day.
On this episode we discuss:
- Changing her business name
- Getting to the point of exhaustion
- Buying an existing general practice
- Lack of time for CPD
- Being too frightened to take a risk and make the required changes her podiatry business needed.
- Becoming an accidental business owner
- Being busy does not equal success or profitability

- Why podiatry became boring
- Increasing her fees, resulting in losing a few patients, but having more time, more money and being happier
