Hello and welcome back to the Treat Your Business Podcast! Today I want to have a really honest chat with you. Letâs face it, running a clinic can be incredibly tough. Itâs not all rainbows and pilates classes, is it? There are moments when it feels like everything is just too much.
In this episode, Iâm sharing personal stories, some practical strategies, and a few hard truths about what it really takes to lead when you feel like giving up. If youâre feeling overwhelmed, burnt out, or just plain fed up, this oneâs for you.
So, make yourself a brew, take a deep breath, and letâs dive in.
Whatâs Covered in This Episode?
Youâre Not Alone
Every clinic owner I know has hit that wall at some point. Iâve been there myself. Whether itâs demanding clients, team challenges, or financial pressures, those moments of âI canât do this anymoreâ are more common than you think. Itâs okay to feel this way.Reality Check on Leadership
Letâs talk about what it really means to be a leader. Itâs emotional, messy, and sometimes downright exhausting. But hereâs the thing: your feelings donât define your ability to lead. Itâs what you do next that matters.Actionable Strategies
I share the exact steps Iâve taken (and still take) when everything feels like itâs falling apart:Pause and Brain Dump: Get everything out of your head and onto paper. You canât tackle the overwhelm until you know whatâs actually causing it.Break the Isolation: Talk to someone who gets itâa mentor, a trusted friend, or even a business group. Leaning on others isnât a weakness; itâs a strength.Focus on Small Wins: Start each day by celebrating three small victories. Progress happens one step at a time, even if it feels slow.Reconnect with Your Why: Remind yourself why you started your clinic. Read your reviews and remember the impact youâre having on peopleâs lives.Let Go of What No Longer Serves You: Whether itâs outdated services, inefficient systems, or even toxic team members, sometimes youâve got to make tough decisions to move forward.Key Takeaways
Leadership isnât about doing it all. Itâs about doing what matters most.Feeling overwhelmed doesnât mean youâre failing; it means you care.Progress is built one small step at a time, so focus on the next brick in your wall.Youâre not alone. Whether itâs reaching out to your team, a community, or your business coach, support is there if you ask for it.Tough times donât last, but tough leaders do.If todayâs episode resonated with you, Iâd love to hear from you. Drop me a message on social media or send me an email. And

Hi there, and welcome to this weekâs episode of Treat Your Business! Iâm Katie, and today, weâre diving into one of the most universal but often unspoken challenges among high achieversâimposter syndrome. Itâs that inner voice that makes us doubt our accomplishments, no matter how much weâve achieved. If youâve ever questioned your worth, felt like you donât deserve success, or found yourself caught in cycles of perfectionism or self-doubt, this episode is for you.
Episode Summary:
In this episode, we explore the roots and realities of imposter syndromeâwhat it is, why it shows up, and how it holds us back from reaching our full potential in business and life. Katie shares her personal journey with imposter syndrome, recounting moments of self-doubt, overachievement, and the struggle to embrace success fully. She discusses the subconscious behaviours that lead to self-sabotage and shares insights from coaching hundreds of clinic owners who experience similar hurdles. Through stories and practical examples, Katie offers strategies to understand and tackle these inner challenges, encouraging listeners to recognise their own worth, celebrate their achievements, and avoid the perfectionism trap.
Katie also dives into the "7 out of 10" principle, a practical approach for combating procrastination by embracing âgood enoughâ rather than perfection, and the importance of avoiding comparison. We explore specific ways to cultivate a mindset of abundance, embrace our achievements, and surround ourselves with supportive people, like coaches, who can help us overcome imposter syndromeâs effects on our confidence and business growth.
Key Takeaways:
Recognise Imposter Syndrome: Understand what it is and why many high achievers experience it.Embrace Imperfection: Aim for a "7 out of 10" rather than perfection to keep moving forward.Celebrate Success: Take time to acknowledge achievements rather than focusing solely on whatâs left to do.Avoid Comparison: Unfollow competitors and focus on your unique strengths and value.Surround Yourself with Support: Seek mentors, coaches, and people who uplift and inspire you.Shift from Fear to Abundance: Reframe risk and opportunity to break free from self-doubt and fear of failure.Thank you for joining me on Treat Your Business!

Hi, Iâm Katie Bell, and welcome to this off-the-cuff episode of Treat Your Business. Today, weâre diving deep into a concept that could transform how you run your clinic or business: essentialism and the art of strategic sacrifice. As you gear up for the end-of-year madness, Iâm giving you permission to pause, refocus, and invest your time where it matters most. If youâve been feeling overwhelmed, spinning plates at a hundred miles an hour, or like youâre the lowest paid in your own company, this one is for you!
Episode Summary:
In todayâs episode, we explore the concept of essentialism: the disciplined pursuit of less but better. Inspired by insights from the Expert Empires Conference and conversations with fellow clinic owners, Iâm here to share why strategy is the art of sacrifice and how being strategic can lead to more fulfilment, better financial outcomes, and a thriving business.
Weâll discuss how clinic owners often struggle with having a master plan, leading to feelings of spinning plates endlessly. Iâll guide you through practical methods to focus on essential activities that drive results, like filtering out distractions, saying no with confidence, and making wise investments of your time and energy.
Weâll cover real trade-offs, like choosing between taking on one more client versus prioritising your personal well-being, and explore why being reactive is costing you progress. Essentialism is about structured, disciplined approaches, and Iâll share actionable tips, including how to manage your inbox, stop multitasking, and schedule your day like a strategic powerhouse. Plus, Iâve got a special resource for you on how the recent Autumn Budget impacts your clinic.
Key Takeaways:
Essentialism Over Multitasking: Focus on fewer, high-impact activities to achieve significant results.Strategic Sacrifice: Saying yes to what truly matters means saying no to distractions.Discipline and Structure: Success comes from having a structured plan and sticking to it, not from doing everything at once.Efficient Time Management: Create a schedule that serves your goals, not other peopleâs demands.Thank you so much for joining me today!

No more undercharging, no more undervaluing your skillsâit's time to thrive!

Hello and welcome to another exciting episode of the Treat Your Business podcast! Iâm Katie Bell, your host, and Iâm thrilled to bring you something truly special this week. Weâve got an incredible treat in store as Iâm joined by my fabulous coaches, Nichola and Philippa, for another round of Coach's Corner. Weâre diving deep into the two missing ingredients that we see holding back clinic owners from achieving the success they desire.
Episode Summary
In this episode, we explore why so many clinic owners feel stuck, burnt out, and frustrated despite working tirelessly on their businesses. Nicola, Philippa, and I discuss the two crucial elements that often go unnoticed but are essential for creating a thriving clinic: mindset and having a clear master plan. We use the analogy of a cherry blossom tree to illustrate how many business owners focus on fixing the branchesâlike marketing or hiringâwithout addressing the roots (mindset) and the trunk (strategy) that support the entire business. We also share insights on why working on your mindset and having a strong, clear strategy are non-negotiable for long-term success.
Key Takeaways
Mindset Matters: Your business is a direct reflection of your beliefs, values, and mindset. Without a solid foundation, no amount of strategy or tactics will yield lasting success.Master Plan: Knowing your destination and having a clear plan to get there is crucial. Without this, your business efforts will feel scattered and ineffective.Strategy Before Tactics: Before diving into marketing or team-building, itâs essential to establish a strong strategy that aligns with your goals and values.Continuous Growth: Mindset work and strategic planning are ongoing processes. As your business grows, so too should your mindset and your master plan.Community and Support: Surrounding yourself with like-minded, successful people is key. Events like our upcoming Clinic Growth Live are designed to provide the community, knowledge, and inspiration you need to take your clinic to the next level.Join us for this insightful episode and learn how to shift from being overwhelmed and exhausted to confident and successful in your clinic business.

Hello and welcome to this episode of the Treat Your Business podcast! I hope you're having a fabulous day. In this episode, we're revisiting a crucial topic from episode 12: valuing our time as clinic owners. Despite our best efforts, many of us still struggle with time management and implementing the changes we learn about. Let's dive back into understanding our hourly rate and its impact on our business.
Episode Summary:
In this episode, we explore the importance of knowing your hourly rate and how it affects your clinic's success. We revisit key insights from episode 12, discussing why many clinic owners undervalue their time and struggle to implement what they learn from masterclasses and training. By understanding and recalculating your hourly rate, you can make better business decisions, delegate effectively, and ultimately grow your clinic.
Key Takeaways:
Understanding Your Hourly Rate: Recognising the true value of your time is crucial. Itâs not just about charging for your time with clients but considering your years of training, experience, and ongoing professional development.Challenges in Valuing Time: Many clinic owners undervalue their time due to past experiences in the NHS or working with insurance companies that set low reimbursement rates.The Importance of Pricing: Regularly revisiting and adjusting your pricing structure is essential. Your prices should reflect your expertise and the value you provide to your clients.Delegation for Growth: Identifying low-value tasks that can be delegated allows you to focus on higher-value activities that drive your business forward.Mindset Shifts: Overcoming the fear of raising prices and understanding the broader impact on your business can lead to greater financial stability and less burnout.Business Development: Spending time on business development tasks rather than getting bogged down by low-value administrative tasks is vital for long-term growth.Action Steps:
Re-evaluate Your Prices: Take a hard look at your current pricing structure and adjust it to better reflect your value and the cost of providing services.Track Your Tasks: For a week, note down every task you do and categorise them by value. Delegate tasks that donât need your direct attention.Focus on High-Value Activities: Prioritise tasks that will help grow your business and improve your financial outcomes.Thank you for tuning into this episode of Treat Your Business. I hope you found these insights valuable and that they help you make meaningful changes in your clinic.
