Sarah brings a rare perspective to this conversation. She is both a clinician who has worked in the trenches of pediatric speech therapy and a technology professional who now helps practice owners understand and leverage the tools that can change the trajectory of their business. That combination makes her one of the most credible voices in this space.

Together, Will and Sarah break down exactly how Raintree, one of the most experienced EMR platforms in the therapy space, made a bold decision to evolve or risk becoming irrelevant. After hearing directly from their largest clients that change was non-negotiable, Raintree acquired Yumi, an AI company that had already developed one of the first AI scribes built specifically for physical therapists. That acquisition became the foundation for ten new products and enhancements rolled out across 2025.

In this episode you will learn:

• ScribeIQ and AI documentation in rehab
• NoteIQ clinical insights and patient progress tracking
• SchedulerIQ and the future of front office automation
• AI versus AI in medical billing and RCM
• Why therapists are the most underprotected professionals in healthcare
• How virtual assistants and AI work together to protect revenue
• The 29% effective revenue loss hitting every outpatient practice

In this episode, Will sits down with the co-founders of Mind to Body Healing, one of Arizona's fastest-growing pelvic floor physical therapy practices. From a bold cold introduction at a student lecture to signing five-year leases together, Kylee and Tara have built something that goes far beyond a clinic. They have built a movement.

Here is what you will learn in this episode:

• What Makes Their Partnership Work They describe their dynamic as yin and yang, what one loves, the other does not. 
• The Business Model Breakdown Mind to Body Healing operates as a cash-based pelvic health practice. 
• Why Pelvic Health Matters for Everyone Both Kylee and Tara came to pelvic health as patients first. They were dismissed, minimized, and told their pain was not real. That experience is exactly why they do what they do.

• PelviEd (provider education): pelvied.com
• Book: Available at pelvied.com

Recorded live at CSM, Will Humphreys sits down with Michelle and Dave from Highbar Physical Therapy, a company that has quietly built one of the most distinctive, people-first cultures in the PT industry. From sparkly orange bomber jackets to a booth that radiates energy, Highbar isn't just different for the sake of it. They're different on purpose.

In this episode, Michelle and Dave break down the four core values that run through every hire, every clinic, and every patient interaction — and share why culture is the last true differentiator in a commoditized healthcare industry.

Whether you're a new grad trying to find your tribe, a practice owner wondering why growth feels flat, or a clinic director trying to prevent burnout on your team — this conversation will change the way you think about your practice.

What you'll learn:

• Why Highbar chose orange, and what color psychology has to do with patient experience
• The four values that every Highbar clinician can recite by heart
• Why "grow forward" is not the same as "get bigger"
• How to build roadmaps (not rule books) for your team
• Why burnout is an employer problem, not a generational one
• What it means to lead the way when everyone else is playing it safe

In this live episode from APTA CSM, Will Humphreys sits down with Bobby Curtis and Casey Russell. They dive deep into the "Brand of Brands" philosophy, explaining how practice owners can leverage the resources of a national powerhouse while maintaining the local identity and community relationships that make their clinics special.

Whether you are a new grad looking for a leadership path or a seasoned owner looking for an exit strategy that preserves your legacy, this conversation is a masterclass in balancing purpose and profit.

Key Takeaways:

• The "Brand of Brands" Strategy: Why maintaining your local identity is more effective than "white-washing" clinics with a national logo.
• Bandwidth Reclamation: How offloading back-office tasks (billing, HR, compliance) allows owners to return to community relations and high-level leadership.
• Quality Before Quantity: Why mastering clinical dosing and movement patterns is the fastest way to drive long-term profitability.
• The Scoreboard Mentality: Using metrics not as a "money grab," but as a report card for patient care and clinical outcomes.
• Internal Impact: The shift from being a technician to being a mentor who empowers the next generation of PT leaders.

In this episode, Scott shares the raw origin story of the conference and why the "connection theme" is the secret sauce that keeps 40% of their audience new each year. They dive deep into the often-dreaded world of HR, exploring how Scott helps practice owners reclaim their time by outsourcing everything from recruiting and payroll to the "difficult conversations" of terminations. If you are a business owner feeling bogged down by $25-an-hour tasks, Scott’s "Go-Giver" approach is the roadmap you need to get back into your Zone of Genius.

Key Takeaways

• Stop Doing "$25-an-Hour" Jobs As an owner, your time is your most valuable asset. If you are handling payroll, basic admin, or initial screenings, you are stalling your company’s growth. Identify your Zone of Genius and delegate the rest to experts.
• The "Network is Your Net Worth" Rule Conferences like Growth Code aren't just for information; they are for transformation through connection. Meaningful relationships with peers and mentors provide the emotional and professional support needed to survive the "loneliness" of business ownership.
• Human Relationships Over Human Resources Scott reframes HR from a corporate "compliance department" to a brand-building tool. Whether you are hiring or firing, every interaction is an opportunity to protect and project your company’s culture and reputation.
• Protect the Brand During Terminations Letting someone go doesn't have to be a bridge-burning event. By using a professional third party (like a fractional HR consultant), you can handle terminations with empathy and finality, often leaving the former employee with a positive impression of the company.
• The "Go-Giver" Business Model The success of Scott and Brandon’s conference—and their consulting firm—is rooted in radical generosity. By giving away value and focusing on the success of their clients first, they have built a community that "begs" to work with them.

In this episode, Rick strips away the fluff to discuss the massive regulatory shifts coming to Physical, Occupational, and Speech Therapy. From the looming 2027 Speech Therapy CPT code overhaul to the "when, not if" reality of audits, Rick explains how to protect your license while ethically maximizing your revenue. If you’ve ever worried about a government shutdown affecting telehealth or felt guilty about your profit margins, this conversation is your roadmap to financial clarity and clinical peace of mind.

Key Takeaways

• 35 Years of Expertise -Rick shares his journey from physical therapist to a leading consultant and legal expert witness. He discusses his role in helping therapists stay out of "legal jail" and keep their licenses secure.
• The Hard Truth About Rehab Margins - Why the therapy business is tougher than the restaurant industry. Rick explains how inflation has risen 43% since 2010, while many payers are actually paying less than they did 15 years ago.
• Documentation & The "When" of Audits - Rick previews his Growth Code sessions, focusing on high-level documentation from eval to discharge. 
• Breaking News: 2027 Speech Therapy Changes - Rick reveals (within NDA limits) the massive shift coming for SLPs: CPT code 92507 is being deleted in 2027 and replaced by 10 new timed units. This will fundamentally change how pediatric speech therapy is reimbursed.
• The "Top 5" Strategy - Feeling overwhelmed by 200 different insurance carriers? Rick explains the Pareto Principle of billing: Focus on the 5–7 payers that make up 85% of your volume to stay 100% compliant.
• The "Over-Documentation" Trap - Why new grads often under-bill but over-document, and how extra "fluff" in your notes can actually be used against you in court.
• When Does Therapy Actually Begin? A game-changing tip for providers: Therapy starts the moment you greet the patient in the waiting room. Rick explains how to capture those "lost" minutes of assessment and education as billable time.
• Financial Transparency & Staff Retention - How sharing metrics and "Tuesday Huddles" creates a culture of leadership. Rick and Will discuss the true cost of an employee (30–35% above salary) and how to explain this to staff to align goals.

The conversation centers on a pivotal moment in Nathan's recent career: having to fill two hours of "dead air" at a high-stakes workshop with zero preparation. He reveals how decades of "business ownership tuition" allowed him to facilitate a masterclass off the cuff, proving that your past struggles are actually a well of wisdom waiting to be tapped.

In this episode, we break down:

• The "Technician’s Trap": Why being a great therapist is often the biggest hurdle to becoming a great business owner.
• The Price of Tuition: Reflecting on the "millions" lost to inefficiency and why hiring a coach is cheaper than letting life teach you the hard way.
• Judgment vs. Effort: Relearning your value as your business grows from $1M to $3M and beyond.
• The Courage to Confront: Why your growth velocity is directly proportional to your ability to have hard conversations.
• A Message from the Future: What a 90-year-old version of yourself would say about your current business stress (Spoiler: It involves more grace and more moisturizer).

Adnan shares a masterclass in "indirect impact"—how non-clinical leadership, insurance negotiations, and operational excellence create the "bespoke" experience families need when they are at their most vulnerable. If you’ve ever wondered how to align your administrative team with your clinical mission, this conversation is for you.

In This Episode, We Discuss:

• The Corporate Pivot: Why Adnan left the world of structured credit (think The Big Short) to find a more "human" ROI in pediatric rehab.
• The "Broadway" Analogy: Understanding the vital role of non-clinical staff as the stagehands that make the clinical "performance" possible.
• Following the Pain: How Treehouse evolved from a speech-only clinic to a multidisciplinary powerhouse (ABA, OT, PT, and Social Work) by simply listening to parent frustrations.
• The "Pura Vida" Leadership Style: Using a Growth Mindset to navigate the "Byzantine" rules of insurance and the stresses of business ownership.
• Operational Empathy: Why getting an insurance contract right or a schedule fixed is actually an act of love for the families you serve.

If you are a practice owner looking to bridge the gap between your administrative staff and your clinical mission, or if you're looking for inspiration on how to scale a "bespoke" family experience, this episode is for you.

Will challenges the traditional definition of a "customer," expanding the circle to include colleagues, insurance providers, family members, and, most importantly—ourselves. We dive into the "Self-Service Paradox": the idea that you cannot serve others at the highest level until you have learned to serve and love yourself first.

As the company looks toward a major growth phase in 2026, this episode serves as a manifesto for "being the light" in every interaction, proving that empathy, kindness, and radical self-care are the ultimate drivers of professional success and personal happiness.

In This Episode, You’ll Learn:

• The Anatomy of "Above & Beyond": Why personalization, empathy, and humanity are the keys to transforming a standard service into a lifelong memory.
• The 360-Degree Customer: Identifying the hidden customers in your life—including insurance reps, teammates, and yourself.
• The Self-Service Paradox: Why self-love and self-care are the foundational tools required to be a "sharp tool" for serving others.

In this episode, Will Humphreys sits down with Arman Ananian, founder of the performance marketing agency Doing Something Rare. Arman pulls back the curtain on why most outpatient private practices fail at digital marketing, and it’s rarely because of the ads themselves.

From the tragic inspiration behind his mission to hire Armenian talent to the "secret" accountability systems that transform leads into lifelong patients, Arman shares a masterclass in scaling with intention. You’ll learn how to identify "garbage" leads, why your front desk might be accidentally killing your ROI, and how the future of patient acquisition lies in the marriage of AI and human touch.

Key Takeaways

• The Follow-Up Gap: Why a "good" cost-per-lead means nothing if your team isn't calling them within minutes.
• The AI Revolution: How Arman uses AI to handle after-hours inquiries and qualify leads 24/7 without losing the human connection.
• Qualifying for Quality: Why you should stop chasing $1 leads and start asking the hard questions that filter for high-LTV (Life Time Value) patients.
• The "Six-Month Lie": How to tell if your agency is actually optimizing your campaigns or just collecting a retainer.
• Purpose-Driven Scaling: Arman’s unique approach to building a global team that provides generational wealth for Armenian families while dominating the US market.

We’re on a mission to bring you the builders, the disruptors, and the legends who are changing the game in private practice and beyond.

In this episode of the Will Power Podcast, we sit down with Dr. Brandy Cummings, a clinical nutritionist and functional medicine expert who discovered that the "missing link" in chronic illness isn't always a physical one. After uncovering her own deep-seated traumas and seeing her physical health transform overnight, Dr. Brandy now helps patients and practitioners address the 95% of the mind that actually runs the show: the subconscious.

In This Episode, We Discuss:

• The 5% vs. 95% Rule: Why your conscious "goal-setter" mind is often at war with your subconscious "goal-getter" programing.
• The "Away-From" Motivation Trap: How the language you use (e.g., "I don't want to be in pain") actually calls in more of the symptoms you're trying to avoid.
• The Physicality of Emotion: How unresolved anger, shame, and fear manifest as chronic neck pain, thyroid issues, and skin conditions.
• Dr. Brandy’s Personal Transformation: A vulnerable look at how clearing 30 years of stagnant emotional energy led to her body releasing 40 pounds of "emotional inflammation" and purging physical toxins.
• The "Analytical Wedge": What hypnosis actually is (and isn't) and how it helps align your mind to stop self-sabotage.
• Perception is Projection: Using your "difficult" patients or relationships as a mirror to find your own areas for growth.

Beth breaks down the emerging science of neuroplasticity and nervous system regulation, explaining why we can’t "think" our way out of trauma and why "microdosing safety" is the key to lasting health. Whether you are a leader looking to show up stronger for your clients or someone battling persistent symptoms, this conversation offers a roadmap to getting back in the driver’s seat of your own healing.

Key Takeaways:

• The "Stress Bucket" Theory: Understand how physical injuries, overdue bills, and past traumas all fill the same neurological bucket, eventually leading to symptoms like back pain or panic attacks.
• Top-Down vs. Bottom-Up Healing: Why talking about trauma isn't enough; we must use the body as a "translator" to communicate safety to the brain’s fear center.
• Neuroplasticity – The Science of Hope: If the brain can learn a pain pattern, it can unlearn it. Beth shares the fascinating "Reverse Bicycle" analogy to explain how neural pathways work.
• Microdosing Safety: Why 5 minutes of regulation 3–5 times a day is more effective than an hour-long session once a week.
• The Power of Processing: What "feeling your emotions" actually looks like in practice and how it dissipates physical symptoms in 60–90 seconds.

Will shares his journey from a catastrophic rock-climbing accident that broke 21 bones to becoming a physical therapy practice owner and, eventually, a leader in the offshore staffing space. They discuss why the "mirror fogging" method of hiring is killing clinics, why physical therapists struggle with the business of medicine, and how virtual assistants (VAs) are becoming the secret weapon for practices to reclaim their time and profitability.

Key Takeaways:

• The "Profit vs. Purpose" Myth: Why financial success is actually the fuel that allows healthcare providers to fulfill their mission, not a "necessary evil."
• The Virtual Revolution: How clinics are using offshore talent for front-desk support, insurance verification, and billing to solve the turnover crisis.
• The Leadership Gap: Why technical competence as a clinician doesn’t equal business acumen—and how to bridge that gap through coaching.

In this transformative episode of the Will Power Podcast, host Will Humphreys sits down with one of his closest mentors and friends, Greg Todd. Greg is a licensed physical therapist turned serial entrepreneur who manages five successful businesses while working only part-time.

Greg breaks down the "4 Levels of Value" that determine your income and freedom in the marketplace. If you feel stuck trading your hours for dollars, this conversation provides the blueprint for shifting from "Implementation" (physical labor) to "Imagination" (solving problems with your mind). They also dive deep into the psychology of relationships, specifically the difference between Givers, Takers, and Matchers, and how a spirit of benevolence can unlock doors you didn't even know existed.

Key Takeaways

• The 4 Levels of Value: Understand where you currently sit in the marketplace hierarchy and how to move up:
  1. Implementation: Trading time for physical tasks (Lowest value).
  2. Unification: Managing and overseeing the implementers.
  3. Communication: Moving people to action through speech, writing, or performance.
  4. Imagination: Using your mind to create solutions and scale businesses (Highest value).
• Buying Back Your Time: Why the goal of making more money should always be to purchase more options and freedom.
• The Givers, Takers, and Matchers Framework: Why Greg suggests avoiding "Matchers" (score-keepers) just as much as "Takers," and how being one of the rare 5% of "Givers" builds an elite inner circle.
• The Power of Acknowledgment: How Greg uses "Random Acts of Kindness" and the "Beach Walk" method to build high-value relationships simply by acknowledging someone’s artistry.
• Leveraging AI in 2026: How clinicians and entrepreneurs can "productize" their knowledge using tech to create assets that work while they sleep.

Dr. Mulli's story begins in the depths of despair, abandoned by his parents at age five and begging on the streets of Kenya. After nearly taking his own life at age 16, a miraculous encounter set him on a path of radical transformation. He rose to become one of Kenya's most successful entrepreneurs, only to hear a divine call that would change the course of history: "I want you to be a father to the fatherless."

Dr. Mulli shares how he exercised the "Will" to sell every asset he owned and the "Power" he found in the Gospel of forgiveness. Today, the Mully Children’s Family (MCF) has rescued over 40,000 children, turning "destitute" street kids into world-class doctors, lawyers, and leaders.

Key Discussion Points:

• The Survival Instinct: How childhood abandonment forged a resilient will to survive and succeed.
• The Tipping Point: Why a stolen car triggered a three-year spiritual crisis that led to a global ministry.
• Radical Sacrifice: The mental and emotional strength required to sell a fleet of buses and oil businesses to live among the poor.
• The Miracle of the Well: How prayer literally changed the climate and ecosystem of a barren land.
• The Science of Forgiveness: Why Dr. Mulli believes forgiveness is the "powerful tool" that unlocks a child's potential.
• Legacy Building: How MCF became the largest family in the world.

Amy, a veteran in the personal development and human growth space with over 20 years of experience (including executive roles at RE/MAX and Buffini & Company), shares her deep-seated passion for serving entrepreneurs and helping people reach their highest potential.

Key Takeaways & Discussion Points

• Culture is Strategy, Not Luxury: Amy breaks down the common misconception that culture is a "nice-to-have." She emphasizes that your organization's culture is your strategy, defining success, product development, and team loyalty.
• Culture is What You Allow: Learn why a top-down mandate doesn't work. True, thriving culture is co-created by the entire team, weaving through the soul of the organization and empowering members.
• The 'We' vs. 'I' Language Test: Discover key trigger words that reveal a toxic or selfish culture. A healthy culture shifts from "I" and "me" to "we" and "ours."
• Leadership is a Behavior, Not a Title: Amy shares her journey of shedding the "duck" mentality (calm on the surface, paddling furiously underneath). Vulnerability and authenticity build trust far more than the facade of perfection.
• The Art of Storytelling in Leadership: Find out how leaders can use their imperfections, failures, and lessons learned, not just their successes—to create an empathic connection and a non-judgmental coaching space for their teams.
• Hiring for Heart, Training for Skill: Amy outlines the strategy of making your culture crystal clear in job descriptions to act as a natural magnet or repellent. Plus, she reveals her favorite non-obvious interview question ("perfect or on time?") and what the best answers reveal about a candidate's team focus.
• Protect Your Culture: Understand the importance of consistently revisiting your co-created mission, vision, and values, and why neglecting behavioral misalignment is a fast track to culture decay.

Tune in to learn Amy's hard-won lessons on servant leadership, co-creating vision, and protecting the culture you allow.

• Deep Dive: The Leadership Challenge: A discussion on the core themes of their leadership training:
  • Trust as the Foundation: Why Trust is the most important element of leadership, enabling healthy conflict and commitment.
  • Leading from Love and Authenticity: The realization that powerful leadership comes from being authentic and operating from a place of genuine care (like Hope's and Denise's shares).
• "Good" When Things Go Wrong: A reminder of the military concept that bad things are "Good" because they present an opportunity to learn and grow.
• Policy Change for Wales: The decision to change the hiring policy for their largest clients ("Wales") to accommodate temporary full-time contracts (2-6 months) to ensure they never lose a valuable relationship, confident they can repurpose skilled VAs quickly.

Clint, who spent 16 years selling medical devices, realized the unsustainable nature of trading time for money. He and his wife strategically invested in real estate—starting with single-family homes and eventually building a portfolio of short-term rental properties and a property management company.

Now, as the co-founder of Nomad Capital, Clint has shifted focus to a high-scale, less-headache model: converting vacant big-box retail buildings (like Kmart) into climate-controlled self-storage facilities using syndication.

Listen in as Clint breaks down the powerful, yet often misunderstood, world of real estate syndication. Learn why seasoned investors, including the "Sharks" on Shark Tank, consistently point to real estate as the ultimate foundation for wealth creation and generational financial velocity. Clint offers a transparent look at the pros and cons of passive real estate investing and how busy, high-net-worth individuals can leverage their capital to grow wealth without sacrificing their valuable time.

Key Takeaways You'll Learn:

• The Problem with Golden Handcuffs: Understanding the cycle of trading more time for more money, and why it's a barrier to true freedom.
• The Three Components of Real Estate Success: Why you need a combination of time, experience, and money, and how syndication allows you to leverage other people's time and experience.
• Syndication Explained: What it is, why it's a powerful tool for diversification, and how busy professionals can get started without becoming real estate experts.
• The Power of Conversion: Why Clint's strategy of converting old retail spaces into self-storage is so lucrative, yielding potential double to triple returns on asset valuation.

1. The Difference in Valuation: Learn why commercial real estate, unlike residential, is valued by Net Operating Income (NOI) and a market cap rate—and how operators can force appreciation by increasing rents.

• Passive Investor Returns: What a typical investment profile looks like, from minimum investment amounts to projected annualized returns (often in the 15-20% range) and how the "general partners" (like Clint) make their money.
• Focusing on Independence of Purpose: Clint shares the deeper motivation behind his financial goals: creating a life of freedom, travel, and empathy to raise better humans.
• Don't Invest Blindly: Clint's crucial advice on vetting operators based on their ethics, transparency, and communication—not just the glossy deal sheet.
• Leveraging Retirement Funds: How you can use self-directed 401ks and IRAs for alternative investments to diversify beyond volatile paper assets.

As Will wisely notes, "If you have any money that's sitting in a bank account, you're losing money with inflation." This episode provides an actionable roadmap for medical professionals who are ready to make their money work for them and start building a life defined by purpose, not just practice.

In this deep dive, we explore:

• Discover why, despite challenges like return on investment, PT remains "one of the top ten happiest careers." Hear how defining your personal "why" – whether inspired by a transformative patient experience (like Davian's football injury or Heidi's ACL rehab) or a desire for one-on-one impact (like Christy's shift from college athletics) – is the ultimate defense against burnout.
• Learn how innovative practices are combating burnout and fostering retention by incorporating community involvement and paid outreach into their PTs' roles, allowing for a richer, more meaningful career.
• A crucial discussion on changing the narrative of the profession. Dr. Heidi, Christy and Davion emphasize "knowing our worth" as specialists in musculoskeletal health, advocating for direct access, and leveraging modern platforms like social media to ensure the community recognizes PTs as "the true doctors in the community."
• The mission of the Rizing Tide Foundation – providing substantial scholarships (up to $14,000/year for DPT, $10,000 for residency) to underrepresented students like Davian and Christy. Hear their emotional, firsthand accounts of how these scholarships alleviate financial burdens and provide a vital community, mentorship, and even future employment opportunities.

This episode highlights that while challenges exist, the future of PT is incredibly bright, especially with a "younger, more powerful generation" rising. It's a call to action for the entire industry to "gather and realize our power as experienced owners and leaders" to break through barriers together.
