How Two Complete Opposites Built One of Arizona's Fastest-Growing Pelvic Health Practices with Tara Sullivan and Kylee Austin

What does the perfect business partnership look like? According to Kylee and Tara, it looks like two people who are complete opposites, in the most perfect way. 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.  Resources Mentioned: * Mind to Body Healing (clinic): pelvicfloorspecialist.com [http://pelvicfloorspecialist.com] * Pelvic Ed (provider education): pelviced.com [http://pelviced.com] * Book: Available at pelviced.com [http://pelviced.com] If you are a PT practice owner, a provider in pelvic health, or anyone trying to build something meaningful in healthcare, this episode is for you.

Highbar PT’s Blueprint for Culture, Brand & Growth With Michelle Collie and Dave Pavao

What does it take to have the best brand presence at the largest physical therapy event in the country? 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  Connect with Highbar Physical Therapy:  * Website: highbarhealth.com  * Student Affiliations & Professional Development: reach out via their website If this episode resonated with you, share it with a PT student or clinic owner who needs to hear it.
