In this powerful solo episode, Dr. Matt Hill breaks down one of the most overlooked and essential elements in building a thriving neurologically-focused family practice: proactive and predictive communication.

You’ll quickly see—chiropractic isn’t just about what you adjust. It’s about how confidently, clearly, and consistently you communicate the path to healing before, during, and after the adjustment. Dr. Matt shares a transformative story of a non-verbal, sensory-overwhelmed 4-year-old who came into practice completely disconnected and unadjustable… and how predictive communication gave his mom the clarity and confidence to stay committed through detox, regressions, and ultimately, the breakthrough moments of healing.

You’ll learn:
Why calling your shot is NOT a guarantee—it’s leadership.How to simplify complex neurodevelopment using analogies and insights that land.Why the pre-work of clinical mastery is essential to becoming a true guide for families.And how to use scans, table talk, and metaphors to help parents connect the dots in real time.
Whether you’re still in school or 10 years into practice, this episode will reframe how you see communication—not as a “soft skill,” but as a clinical tool that builds trust, drives conversions, and keeps families on the path to healing.
