I’ll admit it - I was the biggest roadblock in my own business. When I asked my team what wasn’t working, all roads led straight back to me. And honestly? It stung. But it also revealed the exact places where I needed to step back, delegate, and stop micromanaging. And here’s what I realized: Most wellness practitioners - whether they have a team or are working solo - are the biggest bottlenecks in their own business. Why? Because we care. A lot. 👉We think, “No one will do this as well as I do.” 👉We tell ourselves, “It’s just faster if I handle it myself.” 👉We worry,...

The Clinical Entrepreneur

Ever had a patient disappear into thin air? One minute, they’re all in, excited about their treatment plan, and the next - GHOSTED. No calls, no follow-ups, no explanation. 🙄 If you’ve ever found yourself wondering, “Was it me? Was it the cost? Did I say something weird?” - take a deep breath. It’s not just you, and it’s (probably) not about money. Patients don’t drop off because they don’t want to get better… they drop off because they don’t know what to expect. When your patients feel uncertain about the journey ahead - when they don’t understand the process, the ups...

If creating content makes you want to scream into a pillow or run in the opposite direction, you’re not alone. 🤯 You sit down, determined to finally post something, and then… you draw a blank. Your mind sounds like crickets (is that even a thing?). What should you talk about? What do your patients want or need to know? And why does everyone else make it look so EASY? But what if I told you that you could create an entire month’s worth of content in just ONE hour? No overthinking, no stressing, no wasting hours staring at a blank screen.

It’s that time of year - Breast Cancer Awareness Month is everywhere, but let’s be honest: we all know there’s more to this story than pink ribbons and mammograms. If you’ve ever felt frustrated by the “cancer machine” or wondered what more you could be doing for your patients, this episode is for you. 🎀

In this episode of The Clinical Entrepreneur, I’m speaking from the heart about breast cancer, sharing personal stories (including my own sister’s battle with breast cancer), and why I believe we need to shift the way we talk about breast health.

This isn’t your typical Breast Cancer Awareness Month discussion - I’m diving deep into what you can do right now to help your patients, including the importance of addressing environmental toxins, dietary changes, and supporting their health with key nutrients and things like turkey tail mushrooms. 🍄

 

What we’re covering:
✨ Why the “cancer machine” is still so problematic - and what to do about it.
✨ The critical role of nutrition, supplements, and environmental awareness in preventing breast cancer.
✨ My personal journey with alternative medicine and how it changed my approach to patient care.
✨ The importance of educating your patients on safer screening options like thermography and 3D ultrasound.
✨ Key herbs and supplements, like turkey tail mushrooms, that every woman should be taking for breast health.

 

Key Takeaways:
1️⃣ Empower Your Patients: It’s all about education. Giving your patients options like thermography and talking openly about the risks of traditional screenings can make a world of difference. 🌍
2️⃣ Providing the Right Support: Turkey tail mushrooms, liver detox, and low-dose iodine can be game-changers in preventing breast cancer. 🌿
3️⃣ Environmental Awareness: From toxins in beauty products to household chemicals, it’s essential to have honest conversation about these factors.🧴🚫
4️⃣ Create a Plan: Help your patients be proactive about their health with ongoing support, diet changes, and personalized wellness routines.

 

Why This Episode Matters:
Breast Cancer Awareness Month is more than just wearing pink - it’s about truly understanding the risks and taking control of our health. This episode will help you guide your patients with honesty, compassion, and actionable strategies that will make a real difference in their lives.
