⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
You’re working full-time — but you still don’t know if you’re really profitable. That’s not growth. That’s gambling.
If your practice depends on you to explain how everything works, you don’t have systems — you have stress on repeat.
You built the practice for freedom — but now it feels like you can’t step away without everything falling apart.
If your team can’t make decisions without you, you don’t have a team — you have a daycare.
If you’re spending money but don’t know what’s driving results, it’s not marketing — it’s guessing.
You’re making high-stakes decisions without the data or insight to know what’s working — and what’s holding you back.
