I planned to become the best clinician I could.

Then I built a business, not the Instagram version, the real version.

The version with payroll, policies, difficult conversations, compliance audits, cashflow spreadsheets, Sunday afternoons writing procedures and the (more than) occasional "what the hell have I done?" moment.

Turns out being a clinician was the easy part, building a business that was sustainable and didn’t burn me out. That took a whole different skill set.

Over the last fifteen years of juggling being a clinician, executive and business owner I have developed those skills.

Some of those skills have come from owing and running a health practice, that has held NDIS registration for over 6 years, turns over multiple 7 figures every year and has lots of moving parts.

Some came from sitting on corporate boards for businesses with turnovers of 80+ million per annum that operate within both corporate and healthcare compliance requirements.

Some came from extensive study across different areas like business administration, psychology and theraputic modalities, coaching and even yoga.

Some came from spending timeliving (and working) in remote places like Antarctica, running an Antarctic research station. When you're living on the bottom of the planet with only a handful of people, you learn pretty quick what matters.

Systems matter.

Structures matter.

Looking after yourself matters.
