2025 is going to be the year of the physician. 

Whether it will be the year of the physician for YOU depends on whether you choose to evolve or not. 

If you choose to evolve, you’ll practice medicine how you always wanted to. You’ll finally have time for your friends and family again. And you’ll achieve financial freedom and live your true purpose. 

If you choose not to evolve, it will be the same old, same old. 

In this episode, I’ll discuss the immense potential 2025 holds for us physicians and how you can become part of the coming shift. I’ll also share the five freedoms we stand to regain and walk you through the steps to achieve them.

If you’re ready to evolve, this episode is for you.

Tune in!

00:00:00.020 --> 00:00:01.965
2025 is going to be the year of the physician.

00:00:01.965 --> 00:00:09.041
If it's going to be for you, it's dependent on if you choose to evolve or not, which means I'm going to invest in myself, I'm going to think differently.

00:00:09.041 --> 00:00:10.205
I'm going to act differently.

00:00:10.205 --> 00:00:17.422
If we refuse to act differently, refuse to think differently, refuse to invest in ourselves, it's just going to be same old, same old and, truthfully, it's probably going to be worse.

00:00:17.422 --> 00:00:18.766
Look at the signs and signs.

00:00:18.766 --> 00:00:20.332
Look at the handwriting on the wall.

00:00:20.332 --> 00:00:28.402
It's probably going to be worse.

00:00:28.422 --> 00:00:36.308
Hi docs, welcome to the EntreMD podcast, where it's all about helping amazing physicians just like you embrace entrepreneurship so you can have the freedom to live life and practice medicine on your terms.

00:00:36.308 --> 00:00:38.152
I'm your host, dr Una.

00:00:38.152 --> 00:00:47.651
Hello, hello, my friends, welcome back to another episode of the Entremd podcast.

00:00:47.651 --> 00:01:16.042
This is going to be an actual fun episode, because we're going to talk about something that I've been talking about for the last almost four years at this point, and that is that 2025, which is the year in where, at the time of this recording, is the year of the physician, and so for you listening, this is your year, and I really want to invite you to listen to this with an open mind, to lean all the way in, to kind of imagine the things I'm going to talk about as being your reality, because that's what this year is all about, right?

00:01:16.042 --> 00:01:24.328
And so 2025 is your year, is the year of the physician, is the year when the narrative changes completely for physicians everywhere.

00:01:24.328 --> 00:01:27.626
This is going to be a year that will go down in history.

00:01:27.626 --> 00:01:40.326
It is a year we'll reference, remember back in the day before 2025, we're going to have statements like that, and some people are going to experience it, they're going to live it, it's going to be their reality.

00:01:40.326 --> 00:01:43.862
They're going to experience this alternate reality, and there are many people who will not.

00:01:43.862 --> 00:01:47.933
And the people who will not are people who will be cynical, people who believe it's not for them.

00:01:47.933 --> 00:01:50.125
People think we're just blowing hot air.

00:01:50.125 --> 00:01:54.807
People who are like, oh, the system is too far gone and we're stuck and nothing can be done about it.

00:01:55.147 --> 00:01:58.221
And I really want to challenge you, if you've been like that at all.

00:01:58.221 --> 00:02:07.805
I want to challenge you to go like okay, today's a brand new day, I have a brand new clean slate, and I want to kind of imagine that this could be my reality and work towards it.

00:02:07.805 --> 00:02:09.068
Because what's the alternative?

00:02:09.068 --> 00:02:16.522
The alternative is we stay stuck, we don't have any autonomy, we're burned out, we're replaced by every other type of clinician there is out there.

00:02:16.522 --> 00:02:20.852
We don't have financial freedom, and it's just bad.

00:02:20.852 --> 00:02:22.200
We can choose.

00:02:22.200 --> 00:02:26.512
Even if you feel like I am stuck right now, we can choose that.

00:02:26.512 --> 00:02:28.263
No, I'm not going down like that.

00:02:28.263 --> 00:02:31.348
Or we run businesses that are bad businesses.

00:02:31.348 --> 00:02:40.068
We can't build teams and we can't have businesses that help a lot of people and make millions of dollars and all of that, and I just want to invite you to steer away.

00:02:40.149 --> 00:02:43.703
I want to paint a picture of an alternate reality and I want to invite you to embrace it Now.

00:02:43.703 --> 00:02:50.294
This alternate reality is not something that is a pie in the sky, something that's never happened.

00:02:50.294 --> 00:02:52.727
It's something that is my reality now.

00:02:52.727 --> 00:03:00.569
It is something that is a reality for so many physicians that I've worked with so many physicians in the EntreeMD Business School.

00:03:00.569 --> 00:03:05.507
So we have proof of concept, and the EntreeMD Business School has been around for four and a half years.

00:03:05.507 --> 00:03:10.044
I have been an entrepreneur for 14 years, and so we have proof of concept.

00:03:10.044 --> 00:03:17.289
We have proof of concept over time and now that we have proof of concept, I'm opening up to the entire physician community, like, okay, this is what can happen.

00:03:17.289 --> 00:03:20.445
This is what can happen and I want you to invite you to say yes to it.

00:03:20.485 --> 00:03:26.383
Okay, so, the year of the physician 2025, what does that mean?

00:03:26.383 --> 00:03:29.711
It means that we're now at a stage where physicians experience five freedoms, and I want to tell you what those are.

00:03:29.711 --> 00:03:34.210
Okay Now, the first freedom is the freedom to practice medicine on our terms.

00:03:34.210 --> 00:03:49.775
Right, and so we were like, oh, you know, everybody controls how we practice medicine and all of that, but I have so many clients who have gone on to build private practices where they're in control of how they practice medicine, what is aligned with what their goals are for themselves, for their family, and things like that.

00:03:49.775 --> 00:04:03.280
I have people who work jobs, who still learn they're still my clients, but they love their jobs and this is what they're doing and so they train as entrepreneurs and they're able to negotiate again so they can practice medicine on their terms.

00:04:03.280 --> 00:04:05.350
Okay, so 2025 is that year where physicians will have the freedom practice medicine on their terms.

00:04:05.350 --> 00:04:10.937
Okay, so 2025 is that year where physicians will have the freedom to practice on their terms, and I want you to embrace that.

00:04:10.937 --> 00:04:13.324
Okay, I'm going to be able to practice medicine on my terms.

00:04:13.324 --> 00:04:17.305
The second freedom is the freedom to live life on their terms, right.

00:04:17.446 --> 00:04:21.802
And so what happened when we started the Entremity Business School and started working with the physicians?

00:04:21.802 --> 00:04:29.860
They started building these businesses, but we carried over this mentality of if I want something, I have to put everything on my life on hold.

00:04:29.860 --> 00:04:32.026
I have to give up my dreams and all of that to go for it.

00:04:32.026 --> 00:04:38.060
Because for many of us, that's what we did for medical school, that's what we did for residency training, for fellowship and all of those things.

00:04:38.060 --> 00:04:40.043
And I said no, no, not this time.

00:04:40.043 --> 00:04:47.774
This time we're going to build our dream businesses, but that's why you're in the Entremes Business School, but we're also going to build our dream lives at the same time.

00:04:47.774 --> 00:05:05.209
Now, what that means is, well, I have a version of my business that I have right now and I can also have a version of my dream life that I live right now and as I get better, as I acquire new skills I've been in the game longer and all of those things then I have a second version of my dream business 2.0, 3.0, 4.0.

00:05:05.209 --> 00:05:08.915
And I have the next version of my dream life 2.0, 3.0, 4.0 as well.

00:05:08.915 --> 00:05:23.814
So that's why you hear us say that we are building dream businesses and our dream lives concurrently, right, and so there are so many doctors who will tell you, you know, for the first time, you know, I was able to go on a vacation for two weeks, four weeks, six weeks.

00:05:24.255 --> 00:05:35.209
We had a doctor who joined the business school halfway through last year and in the last five months of the year she took six weeks off and made almost double the revenue she made in the first half of the year.

00:05:35.209 --> 00:05:38.365
We have people who are going to school to have lunches with their kids.

00:05:38.365 --> 00:05:45.922
We have a doc who it was very important to her that she didn't miss any of her kids' activities and she did not miss any of her kids' activities.

00:05:45.922 --> 00:05:48.571
That is the version of the dream life that they were living at the time.

00:05:48.571 --> 00:05:51.067
We have a doc who's like my dad is getting older.

00:05:51.067 --> 00:05:52.911
I just want to go visit him once a quarter.

00:05:52.911 --> 00:05:57.411
He lived in a different state and he was able to go and visit his dad once a quarter.

00:05:57.411 --> 00:06:00.103
Every single quarter, he would drive down to go spend time with his dad.

00:06:00.103 --> 00:06:03.125
That is them living life on their terms.

00:06:03.125 --> 00:06:04.867
Okay, so what does this mean for you?

00:06:04.867 --> 00:06:08.391
Practicing medicine on your terms, living life on your terms.

00:06:08.612 --> 00:06:09.733
What is the third freedom?

00:06:09.733 --> 00:06:24.843
That is, time freedom, time freedom we where are not having time and being super busy and putting everything on hold as a badge of honor which, in our training, there's an element of that that is needed but, oh my goodness, not now, right, not now.

00:06:24.843 --> 00:06:30.088
And so we really challenge our doctors to buy back their time.

00:06:30.088 --> 00:06:32.836
You buy back your time by delegating.

00:06:32.836 --> 00:06:34.942
You buy back your time by eliminating stuff.

00:06:34.942 --> 00:06:40.365
You buy back your time by finding out the activities that you, and only you, can do and leaning in all that, using your time strategically.

00:06:40.365 --> 00:06:41.689
And I'm telling you that's what many of them did.

00:06:41.689 --> 00:06:42.591
They bought their time back.

00:06:42.591 --> 00:06:42.672
Why?

00:06:42.672 --> 00:06:45.139
Because time is, and I'm telling you that's what many of them did.

00:06:45.139 --> 00:06:46.584
They bought their time back.

00:06:46.584 --> 00:06:46.904
Why?

00:06:46.904 --> 00:06:48.709
Because time is a currency of freedom.

00:06:48.709 --> 00:06:59.961
Really, it's time you need to spend time with your spouse, to spend time with your family, to spend time with your aging parents, to spend time to learn a new skill, to spend time to invest in a hobby.

00:06:59.961 --> 00:07:09.800
All of these things require time, right, and so it's very important we have significant training, like a lot of training we do, on how to manage time, how to get things off your plate and all of that.

00:07:10.302 --> 00:07:18.526
The fourth freedom is financial freedom, and this is where you build your business, and you build a business that can create financial freedom for you.

00:07:18.526 --> 00:07:30.490
And so if somebody were to come to you, like this happened you know this happened a lot where people say, oh, they decided not to renew my contract at a job I was working, and we all go like whoopee now you can do what you really want to do.

00:07:30.490 --> 00:07:31.322
Why is that?

00:07:31.322 --> 00:07:33.250
Because there's financial freedom.

00:07:33.250 --> 00:07:34.576
There's financial freedom.

00:07:34.576 --> 00:07:36.423
You're in control of your finances.

00:07:36.423 --> 00:07:46.062
We are described as professionals who have golden handcuffs on right, so we have these salaries and they're just enough that we don't cough.

00:07:46.062 --> 00:07:50.925
We don't do anything right, like you know, because the handcuffs are there, we just need to keep them off.

00:07:50.925 --> 00:08:05.788
And even as people who are running very successful businesses, if you don't understand the rules of the game, you can even build a business that's a multimillion dollar business, but there's no financial freedom attached to it because the profit margins are so abysmal.

00:08:06.108 --> 00:08:10.560
Right, and so financial freedom is something that we really go into.

00:08:10.560 --> 00:08:19.468
In fact, the later part of last year, we introduced something we called RevCon in the Entremet Business School, where we just come and talk about the money Like.

00:08:19.468 --> 00:08:20.531
This is my goal.

00:08:20.531 --> 00:08:21.882
This is where I am.

00:08:21.882 --> 00:08:23.708
This is a challenge that I'm facing.

00:08:23.708 --> 00:08:24.790
How do we fix it?

00:08:24.790 --> 00:08:33.538
And boom, we're just going one after the other, because we don't treat money as a taboo, we don't treat it as a topic we don't talk about right, and we're going to take it up a whole notch.

00:08:33.538 --> 00:08:37.870
They don't even know what's coming in the school, but they'll see and we're going to take it up a whole notch.

00:08:37.870 --> 00:08:57.307
No-transcript, we don't put money before people, but money is right there, right, money's right there, and we're not going to shy away from it.

00:08:57.307 --> 00:08:59.196
Shying away from is what got us where we are.

00:08:59.558 --> 00:09:05.922
Okay, so the fourth freedom is financial freedom, and the fifth freedom is my favorite freedom, and that is the freedom of purpose.

00:09:06.363 --> 00:09:13.407
That means that I have built a life where I am free to pursue what my passions are.

00:09:13.407 --> 00:09:18.145
Passion is not quite the word, but there is this sense that this is why I am here on this earth.

00:09:18.145 --> 00:09:20.572
This is the good I need to do in the world.

00:09:20.572 --> 00:09:22.476
This is the legacy that I want to leave.

00:09:22.476 --> 00:09:35.653
But until you figure out the financial freedom and the time freedom, you don't get the right to chase down your purpose right, because you have to take care of those other two things, and so imagine being in a state where you have freedom of purpose.

00:09:35.653 --> 00:09:42.635
You have freedom to pursue purpose, and, for me, what I do in EntreMD is part of me fulfilling why I think I'm alive.

00:09:42.635 --> 00:09:46.991
What I do when I'm pastoring, that's what I'm fulfilling, why I think I'm alive.

00:09:46.991 --> 00:10:08.735
It's just a magical place to be in, where you are just 100% in alignment with why you're here, and 2025 is that year where doctors begin to walk in these five freedoms, where this becomes more of the norm, where this becomes the narrative for physicians everywhere, and where the life that most physicians live now becomes optional.

00:10:08.735 --> 00:10:09.738
You don't have to do that.

00:10:09.738 --> 00:10:11.308
You can have an alternate reality.

00:10:11.308 --> 00:10:14.605
You can have these five freedoms right Now.

00:10:14.605 --> 00:10:16.471
Are these five freedoms going to drop in our lap?

00:10:16.471 --> 00:10:16.871
They're not.

00:10:16.871 --> 00:10:18.274
They're things that must be done.

00:10:18.296 --> 00:10:25.096
There is a price to pay, and I have paid it, and I have so many clients who have paid it, and it is so worth it.

00:10:25.096 --> 00:10:34.431
Okay, there is a reason why the Ontario Business School has been around for four and a half years, and there's a reason why, four and a half years later, there are people who have been in the school the entire time.

00:10:34.431 --> 00:10:41.673
I have not left, and I mean it's because it's such a magical place where this takes you to and they understand now.

00:10:41.673 --> 00:10:48.527
Like, if I pay this price that I'm going to tell you about and I keep paying it things are just going to keep getting better and better and better.

00:10:48.527 --> 00:10:54.067
So many of them are in phases where they're like, I cannot believe that I'm this person.

00:10:54.067 --> 00:11:07.948
Like when you think about somebody going from employed physician okay, employed physician to running a two and a half million dollar, $3 million business in three years, that is just nuts.

00:11:07.948 --> 00:11:12.947
When you see someone doubling their revenue in six months, that is just nuts.

00:11:12.947 --> 00:11:18.807
When you see a physician coach who's like, oh my goodness, I just had my first $200,000 a year, that is nuts.

00:11:18.807 --> 00:11:23.636
When you see someone say I just hit a million in revenue, it's crazy.

00:11:23.636 --> 00:11:32.970
But there's a process, there's a price to pay and I want to show you what it is because I don't want you to be ignorant of it and the price to pay is your personal evolution.

00:11:33.110 --> 00:11:39.278
I have seen so many doctors say I just want to hire somebody that will do all my marketing and organize my business and all that stuff.

00:11:39.278 --> 00:11:44.413
Really, what that person is saying I want to stay the same and I want to throw money at this problem and make it go away.

00:11:44.413 --> 00:11:46.005
I promise you it doesn't work.

00:11:46.005 --> 00:11:52.350
I have been an entrepreneur for long enough and I have coached enough physicians for long enough to tell you that it does not work.

00:11:52.350 --> 00:11:54.115
You can get the template.

00:11:54.115 --> 00:11:55.097
You can bring on the hire.

00:11:59.865 --> 00:12:01.629
There are people who say I don't want to have anything to do with marketing, I just want to bring on a marketer.

00:12:01.629 --> 00:12:02.517
You will never know if they're doing a good job or not.

00:12:02.517 --> 00:12:03.168
You will never be able to lead them.

00:12:03.168 --> 00:12:05.976
They're not going to be able to get your voice out of you because you don't want to do the work for it.

00:12:05.976 --> 00:12:16.240
Never going to have a message that's so authentic that drives you know, that drives people to build you a dominant brand, because your input is required.

00:12:16.240 --> 00:12:18.903
People are like I don't want to talk about the money, I'm just going to get a good biller.

00:12:18.903 --> 00:12:20.990
You're never going to know if they're doing a good job or not.

00:12:20.990 --> 00:12:22.595
You're never going to be able to hold them accountable.

00:12:22.595 --> 00:12:26.988
You're never going to be able to hold them to higher standards because you don't know what they should be doing in the first place.

00:12:26.988 --> 00:12:29.092
So people.

00:12:29.092 --> 00:12:31.238
They would like to pay to make it go away.

00:12:31.238 --> 00:12:39.889
They'd like to get who will bring a template and just build out their business, but not change.

00:12:39.990 --> 00:12:41.131
Your personal evolution is a requirement.

00:12:41.131 --> 00:12:43.035
Your personal evolution is a requirement.

00:12:43.035 --> 00:12:44.359
This is the price to pay.

00:12:44.359 --> 00:12:45.789
You must become different.

00:12:45.789 --> 00:12:56.172
You must become different, and when I say different, I don't mean you change at your core, but what I mean is that the way you think is different, your expectations are different, the way you act is different.

00:12:56.172 --> 00:12:57.556
This all has to change.

00:12:57.556 --> 00:13:00.013
This is the hard work of entrepreneurship.

00:13:00.144 --> 00:13:03.567
So there's something that happened, you know, when I first started the Entrepreneur Business School.

00:13:03.567 --> 00:13:10.866
And people will stay in and you know that after three or six months they're like okay, I got everything I need and I'm out and I'll try and talk with them.

00:13:10.866 --> 00:13:11.927
And it hurt my heart.

00:13:11.927 --> 00:13:14.751
It didn't hurt my heart because I'm losing a client.

00:13:14.751 --> 00:13:17.735
It hurt my heart because I'm like, oh my goodness, they're bored in the process.

00:13:17.735 --> 00:13:19.398
And that's not to say, you know.

00:13:19.398 --> 00:13:20.860
Like I just want to be very clear.

00:13:20.860 --> 00:13:26.649
I recognize that as a quote unquote problem that I have.

00:13:26.649 --> 00:13:28.499
Like that doesn't mean there's anything wrong with anybody leaving or anything like that.

00:13:28.499 --> 00:13:29.625
Like you know, I hope nobody takes it that way.

00:13:29.625 --> 00:13:33.370
I mean, it's something that I've had to work on for myself, because this is the problem I have.

00:13:33.409 --> 00:13:35.472
The problem I have is like quote unquote.

00:13:35.472 --> 00:13:41.500
The problem I have is when I meet somebody and they start their journey of entrepreneurship, I can see 10 years ahead.

00:13:41.500 --> 00:13:44.914
I can see, oh my goodness, if they continue on this trajectory, what can happen and all that.

00:13:44.914 --> 00:13:51.288
And so sometimes people are wondering like, why is she so excited that I just got my first $10,000 in revenue?

00:13:51.288 --> 00:13:51.931
What's the problem?

00:13:51.931 --> 00:13:53.254
Why is she so excited?

00:13:53.254 --> 00:13:54.177
I hit my first million.

00:13:54.177 --> 00:13:56.258
Now that's very exciting, right and all.

00:13:56.258 --> 00:14:01.620
But I'm like over the top is because I know that this makes the next thing possible, which makes the next thing possible.

00:14:01.620 --> 00:14:03.261
So I'm already like 10 years ahead.

00:14:03.261 --> 00:14:07.607
You know like, when I'm 10 years ahead and someone's like, okay, I'm done, I'm like no, no, don't do it Right.

00:14:07.607 --> 00:14:08.889
So that's a me thing.

00:14:09.070 --> 00:14:13.595
But what started happening is, you know, like now I'm so grateful the school has been around for a while.

00:14:13.595 --> 00:14:15.616
It's been around for four and a half years at this point.

00:14:15.616 --> 00:14:21.892
And so people then come maybe they've been in the school for two years, two and a half years, three years, four years, and they're like.

00:14:21.892 --> 00:14:27.291
You know, the first year in the school was really all about me becoming an entrepreneur.

00:14:27.291 --> 00:14:30.337
It was all about fixing the way I thought about things.

00:14:30.337 --> 00:14:38.741
It was all about helping me overcome the mindset drama and it was really in year two that things began to take off or whatever.

00:14:38.741 --> 00:14:42.813
But they recognize the internal work is the real work, is the hard work.

00:14:42.813 --> 00:14:50.576
That's what my zone of genius is helping physicians go from physician to physician entrepreneur, becoming the person.

00:14:50.576 --> 00:14:52.871
And so that's why I would tell them I'm like many of you.

00:14:52.871 --> 00:15:02.164
So many of you are going to be serial entrepreneurs because you didn't come into the school and learn how to start a practice or take your practice to seven figures or multiple seven figures.

00:15:02.164 --> 00:15:15.764
You came into the entrepreneur business school to learn to become an entrepreneur first, and then you acquire the strategies of entrepreneurs and the habits and all of that stuff.

00:15:15.764 --> 00:15:18.330
So you become the person who builds businesses.

00:15:18.330 --> 00:15:22.330
That's just what you do because you're an entrepreneur Like you're like completely revamped, if you will.

00:15:22.450 --> 00:15:24.698
So your personal evolution is required.

00:15:24.698 --> 00:15:27.698
Your personal evolution, you changing, is required.

00:15:27.698 --> 00:15:33.754
So hanging on to who you've been, hanging on to your old way of doing things, is going to hurt, you is going to cost you is going to cost.

00:15:33.754 --> 00:15:34.977
You've been hanging on to your old way of doing things.

00:15:34.977 --> 00:15:35.961
It's going to hurt you, it's going to cost you.

00:15:35.961 --> 00:15:37.004
It's going to cost you your five freedoms.

00:15:37.004 --> 00:15:39.291
That's too expensive, if you ask me, right?

00:15:39.291 --> 00:15:39.772
Okay?

00:15:39.772 --> 00:15:42.518
So your personal evolution, this is a must.

00:15:42.518 --> 00:15:43.900
This must happen.

00:15:43.900 --> 00:15:45.323
You must embrace this.

00:15:45.323 --> 00:15:57.822
You must say, okay, who I've been has brought me to where I am, who I'm going to become me, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0 is going to take me into these five freedoms and it is a thousand percent worth it.

00:15:57.822 --> 00:15:58.244
Right?

00:15:58.244 --> 00:16:01.067
Okay, your personal evolution is what is required.

00:16:01.067 --> 00:16:06.130
And let me tell you three things.

00:16:06.130 --> 00:16:07.251
You know like three things that are required here.

00:16:07.251 --> 00:16:10.576
Okay, you know, the first thing, when it comes, when, as far as your personal evolution goes, is that you got to be willing to invest in yourself.

00:16:10.576 --> 00:16:13.941
I don't know what other way to say this, but you have to be willing to invest in yourself.

00:16:14.240 --> 00:16:19.754
You've heard me tell my story many times of the first time I got introduced to this whole concept of investing in yourself.

00:16:19.754 --> 00:16:21.922
I'd read books, I'd listened to podcasts.

00:16:21.922 --> 00:16:26.041
I've done all of those things, even had some courses that I had done and things like that.

00:16:26.041 --> 00:16:28.052
But as far as being in a container.

00:16:28.052 --> 00:16:36.524
Being in a container for a year this particular one was 10 months and just doing the work week in, week out, being held accountable, being in the community, all of those things.

00:16:36.524 --> 00:16:39.173
I'd never done anything like that, I never even knew it existed.

00:16:39.674 --> 00:16:48.312
And so the first opportunity I had to do it it's kind of like anybody who's come in contact with us or come in contact with our events or podcasts and stuff like that I went for an event.

00:16:48.312 --> 00:16:48.913
I was there.

00:16:48.913 --> 00:16:52.418
It was a three-day event and the first two days were like literally magical.

00:16:52.418 --> 00:16:59.153
I could not believe the things that I had learned, the things I had started doing, the way of thinking that was completely expanded.

00:16:59.153 --> 00:17:01.721
And I remember like, okay, I'm going to go do all the things.

00:17:01.721 --> 00:17:02.490
Right, that's what we say.

00:17:02.490 --> 00:17:04.056
I've read the book and I'm going to go do the thing.

00:17:04.056 --> 00:17:06.231
I've watched the course and I'm going to go do the thing.

00:17:06.231 --> 00:17:12.922
And at the end of it there was like oh, you can come, working with us is only $43,000.

00:17:13.542 --> 00:17:14.984
And I remember being so upset.

00:17:14.984 --> 00:17:16.875
I was like $43,000?

00:17:16.875 --> 00:17:18.118
What did they do?

00:17:18.118 --> 00:17:19.663
Lace the program with gold.

00:17:19.663 --> 00:17:20.826
What in the world?

00:17:20.826 --> 00:17:22.111
Maybe upset was not the word.

00:17:22.111 --> 00:17:23.978
I was shocked, I was confused.

00:17:23.978 --> 00:17:25.403
I was like what.

00:17:25.644 --> 00:17:27.230
But I'm so grateful that I stopped.

00:17:27.230 --> 00:17:35.231
And I thought I said, but in two days, right, in two days, the level of transformation I've experienced doesn't even make sense.

00:17:35.231 --> 00:17:36.575
It's so wild, right.

00:17:36.575 --> 00:17:38.259
And I talked to my husband.

00:17:38.259 --> 00:17:39.702
My husband's like, yeah, go for it.

00:17:39.702 --> 00:17:43.276
And it's not like I had $43,000 sitting somewhere.

00:17:43.276 --> 00:17:49.694
And so I got in on that program and I've not stopped investing in myself since then.

00:17:49.694 --> 00:17:57.540
Right, I recognize when I want to change, I have to invest in myself and put myself in a container that makes the change a non, you know, like a inevitable.

00:17:57.540 --> 00:18:05.492
My husband and I joke about it and we say that, wow, this is the best money that we've ever spent, right, like just best $43,000 ever.

00:18:05.633 --> 00:18:08.817
And so there's the books, there's a podcast, there's workshops.

00:18:08.817 --> 00:18:09.837
We are committed.

00:18:09.837 --> 00:18:12.901
We're going to do a workshop a year, in fact, at the time of this recording.

00:18:12.901 --> 00:18:21.691
So if you're listening to this right when it was released, we have an event, a workshop that's happening, called the Profitable Private Practice Workshop, with all the challenges in private practice.

00:18:21.691 --> 00:18:29.434
I know that, left to itself, there's so many more private practices that are going to go out of business this year than last year and we want to help stall that.

00:18:29.434 --> 00:18:31.096
If you want to win, we want to help you win.

00:18:31.297 --> 00:18:35.320
And it all starts with a workshop and it's called the Profitable Private Practice Workshop.

00:18:35.320 --> 00:18:38.924
It's entremdcom forward slash workshop, january 13th to the 15th.

00:18:38.924 --> 00:18:40.165
So go, save your spot.

00:18:40.165 --> 00:18:45.481
And, beyond saving your spot, whether you're a private practice or not, my goodness, take the link and share it with everybody.

00:18:45.481 --> 00:18:49.313
You don't even have to self-select, you don't have to worry if they want to do it or whatever.

00:18:49.313 --> 00:18:51.236
Just take the link and share it with everybody.

00:18:51.236 --> 00:18:52.557
You know who's in private practice.

00:18:52.557 --> 00:18:53.138
Why?

00:18:53.138 --> 00:18:57.224
Because all hands are needed on deck to bring the change that we need to bring to the physician community.

00:18:57.224 --> 00:19:05.679
Okay, so we have books, we have workshops, we have the podcast, we have events, we have Entree MD Live that's coming up and we have the Entree MD Business School.

00:19:05.789 --> 00:19:08.077
We have like a gazillion ways of helping people.

00:19:08.077 --> 00:19:11.453
Right, we have a gazillion ways and we do all five things.

00:19:11.453 --> 00:19:11.795
Why?

00:19:11.795 --> 00:19:19.751
Because all five things work and that's part of the investment like time, resources, money that you need to make so you can experience that personal evolution.

00:19:19.751 --> 00:19:26.820
The second thing is that you have to make a commitment that I'm going to think differently, like holding on to the old ways of thinking is just going to hurt us, right?

00:19:26.820 --> 00:19:27.771
Like, oh, you know.

00:19:27.771 --> 00:19:31.621
Like, yes, we build businesses and and you know, we don't make any money?

00:19:31.621 --> 00:19:39.138
No, no, like, absolutely not.

00:19:39.138 --> 00:19:42.034
Why would you leave your family, go to work every day to go do a business that will make no money, only so you can go work another job to make more no money?

00:19:42.034 --> 00:19:44.278
Now there is a phase in your business where you have to self fund and things like that.

00:19:44.278 --> 00:19:49.031
I'm not referring to that, I'm just referring to willfully agreeing to run a business that doesn't make money.

00:19:49.152 --> 00:19:53.195
No, right, their thoughts like, oh, as a physician coach, you can never replace your physician salary.

00:19:53.195 --> 00:19:54.017
That is not true.

00:19:54.017 --> 00:19:55.157
That is not true.

00:19:55.157 --> 00:19:57.839
There's evidence that there's like, absolutely, that is not true.

00:19:57.839 --> 00:20:00.623
Right, we have to get rid of that, right.

00:20:00.823 --> 00:20:04.105
The expectation that, oh, you know, I can't build a rockstar team.

00:20:04.105 --> 00:20:04.767
I can't build.

00:20:04.767 --> 00:20:10.255
No, no, I'm not a great entrepreneur.

00:20:10.255 --> 00:20:10.576
No, we have to.

00:20:10.576 --> 00:20:14.101
Us at all the way of thinking of I suck at marketing.

00:20:14.101 --> 00:20:14.681
What do you mean?

00:20:14.681 --> 00:20:19.393
You sucked at everything that you do excellently now as a physician, you sucked at all of it.

00:20:19.393 --> 00:20:22.950
You just decided this is what needs to happen and I'm going to get good at it.

00:20:22.950 --> 00:20:25.057
It's the same thing for entrepreneurship.

00:20:25.057 --> 00:20:28.272
You're also going to make a commitment that you're going to act differently.

00:20:28.272 --> 00:20:39.575
So people tell me things like well, I've never talked to a referral source before, I've never been on social media before, I've never raised my prices before, I've never hired a physician before, I've never hired a business manager before, I've never.

00:20:39.575 --> 00:20:42.662
Okay, okay, there's always a first time.

00:20:42.662 --> 00:20:45.134
Let's make it the first time, because we're going to need to act differently.

00:20:45.134 --> 00:20:46.719
We must evolve.

00:20:46.959 --> 00:20:49.872
If 2025 is going to be the year of the physician, it's going to be.

00:20:49.872 --> 00:20:58.211
If it's going to be for you, it's dependent on if you choose to evolve or not, which means I'm going to invest in myself, I'm going to think differently, I'm going to act differently.

00:20:58.211 --> 00:21:06.791
Okay, if we refuse to act differently, refuse to think differently, refuse to invest in ourselves, it's just going to be same old, same old and, truthfully, it was probably going to be worse, right?

00:21:06.791 --> 00:21:12.079
Like, look at the signs and time, look at the handwriting on the wall is probably going to be worse, okay.

00:21:12.079 --> 00:21:15.571
So this is the opportunity we have is the year of the physician.

00:21:15.571 --> 00:21:16.355
If we choose.

00:21:16.355 --> 00:21:17.580
This is available.

00:21:17.580 --> 00:21:21.037
If we choose, I know, my goodness, I hope you're saying yes to this and you're choosing.

00:21:21.037 --> 00:21:23.730
We've talked about the price that you're going to need to pay.

00:21:23.730 --> 00:21:26.460
You are going to need to evolve, which means you're going to invest in yourself.

00:21:26.460 --> 00:21:28.071
You're going to act differently, you're going to think differently.

00:21:28.471 --> 00:21:29.614
What is my commitment to you?

00:21:29.614 --> 00:21:32.217
What is the commitment of EntreeMD to you?

00:21:32.217 --> 00:21:33.959
What is the commitment of Dr Una to you?

00:21:33.959 --> 00:21:39.526
My commitment is I'm going to do everything humanly possible to see this become your reality.

00:21:39.526 --> 00:21:46.617
We are going to have the best events that we've ever had.

00:21:46.617 --> 00:21:48.925
We are going to release the most impactful podcast episodes that we ever had.

00:21:48.925 --> 00:21:54.999
We are going to release three very powerful books this year right, and we already have four others that are going to completely rock your world.

00:21:55.460 --> 00:21:57.983
The Entree MD Business School we're taking it up a whole notch.

00:21:57.983 --> 00:22:03.162
I had been looking forward to the first person who will say I had a million dollar month.

00:22:03.162 --> 00:22:05.757
We got that last year and I was like oh, thank you, jesus.
