EP787 They Had Every Excuse Not To Go All In. They Did It Anyway. Five Clinic Owners Who Made The Decision And Never Looked Back.
Ep. 787
•
Every person on this stage had every reason not to do it. Four kids and a university job. Sixteen years in insurance. Working hospital shifts before and after to make ends meet. Stuck at $350,000 for years going nowhere.
They all had excuses. They all had fear. They all made the decision anyway.
In this episode, I put five of my fastest growing clinic owners on the hot seat in front of 200 people at Cash Pay Summit. Their stories are different. Their starting points are different. But they all say the same thing — they wish they'd done it sooner.
The path is already written. The only question is when you're going to step onto it.

01:05:23||Ep. 804In today's episode I answer:“I’m going through a divorce and her lawyer wants the value of my business included in the settlement. On paper, I’ve built a successful clinic worth several million dollars. The problem is, that money doesn’t actually exist in my bank account. If I have to compensate her based on that valuation, I could end up giving away most of my cash and investments — leaving me with little except shares in a company I still have to turn up and run every morning. How is that fair? And what should business owners be doing before divorce is ever on the table?”
