  Does Your Business Get Easier Each Year? Nicole vs. Jesse Debate!

  Oct 1, 202628 min

  The longer you own a business…the easier it should get, right? Well, Nicole and Jesse aren't so sure they agree. So we're debating it! On one hand, YOU get better every year. You know more. You've made mistakes. You've survived hard things. Problems that would have sent you spiraling five years ago barely register anymore. But… Your problems get bigger. You fall into bad habits. ‍♀️ It gets harder to maintain momentum. And as the business grows, you encounter entirely new challenges you never had when you were starting out. So does business ownership actually get easier with experience? Or does it just get… differently hard? We make the case for both sides—and talk about the thing that has probably done more than anything else to make entrepreneurship easier and more enjoyable for us: coaching. We've learned a LOT from our own mistakes over the years. But we've learned even more by shortening the learning curve, getting outside perspective, and benefiting from mistakes other smart business owners have already made. Because you certainly can figure everything out yourself. But you don't have to. Want Business to Get Easier? That's exactly why we created the Pelvic Health Business Accelerator . You don't need to reinvent the wheel, make every mistake yourself, or spend years figuring out lessons someone else could help you see in minutes.

  There’s No Such Thing as a Simple Pelvic Health Patient: An Interview with Michelle Lyons

  Sep 21, 202657 min

  There’s no such thing as a simple pelvic health patient. Even the patient who walks in with “just a little stress incontinence” brings a history, a body, hormones, sleep, stress, previous injuries, bowel function, activity goals—and a whole lot more. And that's exactly why being a great pelvic health clinician requires so much more than memorizing protocols. We're joined by Michelle Lyons for one of those wide-ranging, thought-provoking conversations we always love having with her. Michelle has been part of PelviCon from the very beginning. She's our only 5-time PelviCon speaker , an incredible educator and one of the most thoughtful voices in our profession. In this episode, we talk about: Why assessing the pelvic floor still matters. Michelle shares the analogy of an internal + external assessment being like “washing the windows on both sides”—and why telehealth can be valuable as well as , rather than instead of , in-person assessment. Why there are no simple patients. Even seemingly straightforward incontinence can require us to think about hips, hormones, sleep, iron, constipation, previous injuries, activity and more. What clinical reasoning actually looks like. Information isn't enough. Great clinicians have to connect seemingly unrelated pieces into a coherent picture. Why pelvic health desperately needs more mentorship. Taking Pelvic Floor 1 doesn't magically make someone an expert. New clinicians need support, supervision and safe places to ask questions. Why better research isn't enough. Michelle used to believe better research would automatically lead to better pelvic health care. She's changed her mind. We also need to get much better at translating evidence into actual behavior change. Why clinicians are facilitators, not fixers. Our job is to create the conditions where patients can recover, build capacity and thrive. And Michelle gives us a preview of her two PelviCon talks —one on pelvic health after cancer and another on women and back pain—including some brand-new oncology guidelines she's been involved in developing. ️ Final Chance for PelviCon Live Virtual + Recording! Wednesday, 9/23 is the FINAL DAY to purchase PelviCon Live Virtual + Recording!

  Your Business Doesn't Have to Grow

  Sep 17, 202622 min

  More revenue. More patients. More clinicians. More locations. We're constantly told that a "successful" business should always be getting bigger. But what if you don't actually want it to? There are plenty of GREAT reasons not to grow. ‍‍‍ You're in a season where family needs more of you. ✈️ You want to travel or prioritize life outside the practice. You're already making enough money. ‍♀️ You have absolutely zero desire to manage employees. ❤️ Or maybe you're just…happy with what you've built! And sometimes growth stalls for reasons you didn't choose—staff turnover, seasonality, capacity issues, losing a referral source, or just the normal ups and downs of running a business. A flat year doesn't mean you failed. But there's an important flip side… "I don't want to grow" can also become a really convenient story we tell ourselves when we're actually afraid to grow. There's a difference between intentionally choosing to maintain your business and avoiding the hard things required to take the next step. And remember: not growing doesn't mean not improving. If your revenue stays flat but you work 10 fewer hours a week, take four more weeks of vacation, increase your profit, improve your systems and enjoy your business more? That's a better business. The question isn't: "Did my business grow this year?" It's: "Did my business do what I wanted it to do for me this year?" Want to build a business that actually works for YOU? That's exactly what we do in the Pelvic Health Business Accelerator —helping pelvic health business owners get consistently full, improve their systems and build the business they actually want.

  How to Actually Be an Evidence-Based Clinician: An Interview with Taryn Hallam

  Sep 14, 20261h 14m

  Reading research and actually understanding what it means for the patient in front of you are two VERY different things. And there may be nobody in pelvic health better at bridging that gap than Taryn Hallam . Taryn has essentially made research translation her full-time job—reading the enormous amount of pelvic health research being published and asking: What does this actually mean in the clinic? Because the abstract doesn't always tell the whole story. As Taryn puts it, the abstract is like the trailer for a movie. Sometimes the trailer accurately represents the movie. And sometimes...all the best parts were in the trailer. In this episode, we're diving deep into how we actually become evidence-based clinicians. We talk about: Statistical significance vs. clinical significance. A result can be completely “statistically significant” and still be basically meaningless to your patient. Why you can't just read the abstract. What gets highlighted in an abstract isn't necessarily what matters most clinically. Why one research paper is never the whole story. Taryn compares a single paper to opening a 450-page novel to page 210 and expecting to understand the plot. The danger of extrapolating research to the wrong population. What happens when research on young, nulliparous athletes gets applied to a completely different patient sitting in front of us? ‍♀️ Why “we don't know” is sometimes the most evidence-based answer. We don't need to pretend the research is more definitive than it actually is. How experience changes our ability to assess. Can research showing poor reliability among relatively inexperienced clinicians really tell us what an expert with decades of pattern recognition can—or can't—feel? And yes...we ask Taryn about the internal exam debate. Her answer? Let's just say she has some thoughts. We talk prolapse, stress urinary incontinence, levator avulsion, pelvic floor muscle training, tone, overactivity—and why Taryn believes an internal examination remains an essential component of best-practice pelvic health care. But she also makes an incredibly important distinction: Saying virtual care has value and saying an internal examination adds important clinical information are NOT contradictory statements. Both can be true. And sometimes our profession gets into arguments because we haven't even agreed on what question we're debating. ️ Learn From Taryn at PelviCon 2026! If you like Taryn on the podcast, you are going to LOVE her at PelviCon. She's bringing us two completely different—and appropriately disruptive—presentations. Should Possible Levator Avulsion Change Our Approach? This one is for the research nerds. Taryn is digging into the actual studies and statistics, including what odds ratios and p-values really tell us, to ask whether suspected levator avulsion should change how we approach someone in those first few months postpartum. Coital Incontinence & Female Ejaculation And this one tackles a topic many of us simply weren't taught enough about. Our patients may be nervous enough to bring these concerns up. We shouldn't be sitting there thinking, Oh crap...what do I say now? Taryn is going to give us the research, understanding and language to have these conversations with confidence.

  What’s the Point If You Hate Your Business?

  Sep 10, 202625 min

  You can make great money. You can have control of your schedule. But… do you actually like the business you've created? In Part 3 of our Make the Business Work for You series, we're talking about the third major piece of upside you traded for when you became a business owner: satisfaction & impact. Ideally, as your business grows, your role should get BETTER. ✨ More time doing things you're great at. ❤️ More of the work you genuinely enjoy. More time spent on things that actually create value. ️ Less answering phones, chasing paperwork, putting out preventable fires, scrambling for patients, and doing all the little things you hate. And then there's impact . Maybe success means becoming the go-to pelvic health resource in your community. Maybe it's mentoring clinicians, creating incredible jobs, building relationships with providers, or growing a team that can help far more patients than you ever could by yourself. There's no single "right" version of a successful pelvic health business. And that's the whole point of this series. Money. Time. Satisfaction & impact. You don't have to maximize all three at the same time—and sometimes you can't. But you gave up a LOT of consistency to become an entrepreneur. Make sure you're actually collecting the upside you traded for. Want to build a business that actually works for YOU? That's exactly what we do in the Pelvic Health Business Accelerator —helping you build a thriving practice that's financially successful without losing sight of the life and career you actually wanted when you started.
