In Episode 54, Gerda reveals why January - not December - is the secret weapon for smart, sustainable business planning in private practice. She shares her own experience of ditching frazzled “December brain” for the clarity and creativity that only a well-rested January can bring.
You’ll discover why most practice owners start the year already behind, how reaction mode keeps you stuck, and why planning all by yourself rarely works. Instead, Gerda recommends and unpacks the power of a facilitated, intentional planning process - one that’s realistic, energising, and designed for the unique rhythms of allied health.
In this Episode, you will learn (among others):
- Why January is the best time to plan your year and how a rested brain leads to better business decisions.
- The dangers of starting the year in reaction mode and how to break the cycle.
- How to design a year that’s intentional, aligned, and actually executable (no more wishful thinking or burnout).
Who This Episode Is For:
- Allied health practice owners who want to lead their year, not chase it.
- Business owners tired of repeating the same patterns and ready for real change.
- Anyone craving more clarity, structure, and support as they map out a successful, sustainable year ahead.
Tune in for a practical, honest, and inspiring conversation that will help you start your year with purpose and in turn build a practice you can’t stop smiling about.
