The No-Stress Way to Market Your Practice: A Conversation with Michelle Grasek

In this episode of the Staffless Practice Podcast, I sat down with Michelle Grasek, an acupuncturist and marketing mentor who has spent over a decade helping practitioners grow their practices in a way that actually feels good.  We talked about something I know so many of us struggle with… how to market your practice without feeling fake, pushy, or completely burned out. Michelle shares how she went from running her own acupuncture practice to teaching marketing, and why consistency, connection, and authenticity matter more than doing everything. We dive into practical strategies for both introverts and extroverts, how to build trust with your community, and what to do when your marketing feels stagnant. One of my favorite takeaways? You don’t have to do marketing you hate. There are so many ways to grow your practice, and the key is choosing what actually aligns with you. We also talk about: *  Why is connection the foundation of patient trust  *  The biggest mistake practitioners make on social media  *  When to focus on in-person marketing vs digital  *  How to get unstuck when you feel like nothing is working  *  Why your Google Business profile might be your best starting point  If marketing has ever felt overwhelming or “not your thing,” this episode will completely shift how you think about it.

Building a Purpose-Driven Chiropractic Life: A Conversation with Dr. Travis Corcoran

In this episode, I’m sitting down with Travis Corcoran to talk about something I don’t think we talk about enough in practice growth. Purpose. I’ve spent years surrounded by purpose-driven chiropractors, and I didn’t realize how rare that actually is until I started working with more practitioners who felt stuck, overwhelmed, and honestly disconnected from what they’re doing. So in this conversation, we go deeper. We talk about: *  Why setting goals without knowing your purpose will always leave you feeling unfulfilled  *  How having a clear framework changes the way you make decisions in your practice and your life  *  The balance between logic and intuition and why you actually need both  *  What I’d say to any practitioner who feels like they’re just “throwing spaghetti at the wall.”  This episode is for you if you’ve ever:  → Hit goals but still felt like something was missing  → Questioned if you’re on the right path  → Wanted more clarity, direction, and alignment in your work Because the truth is, when you’re clear on your purpose, everything else starts to make a whole lot more sense.

Why You Feel Broke Even When You’re Busy: A Conversation with Dr. Diana Smith

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Diana Smith, someone whose name comes up again and again when it comes to finances, money mindset, and running a profitable practice. I wanted to have this conversation because I see it all the time. Practice owners are busy, fully booked, and still feel like they are not making any money. I have been there too. We talk about the Profit First model and why taking profit first instead of last can completely change how a practice operates. More importantly, we go deeper into what is really happening underneath it all. In this conversation, I share  • Why being busy does not always mean being profitable  • How I personally approach Profit First in my own business  • What happens when there is no structure around money  • The mindset shifts that come with stepping into a CEO role Diana also shares her story, including what happened when she lost a significant amount of money during a buildout, how it impacted her mentally and emotionally, and what she had to do to rebuild. We also get into real talk about responsibility, decision-making, and what it takes to move forward when things feel hard. If things feel messy, overwhelming, or unclear in a practice right now, this is a good place to start. If this conversation resonated and finances are something being worked through right now, I highly recommend connecting with Diana and her work. You can learn more or reach out at chirobabe.com.
