Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

EP114 Student Loan Repayment Changes Explained
Q: Can you first tell us about the save forbearance ending in August and what it means for borrowers?
Save forbearance isn't ending; interest will start accruing on August 1st. Borrowers should expect higher balances as interest accrues, and they should consider moving off save forbearance to a repayment plan to avoid paying more over time.
EP123 What to Do When You’ve Hit a Plateau
Q: Is there such a thing as a general practitioner niche?
The host explains that a general practitioner by definition is broad and not truly a niche, and that marketing should instead focus on a specific transformation within a well-defined specialty, such as GI disorders linked to the gut-brain axis, which can then be narrowed further into specific conditions like stress-induced diarrhea.
EP145 Six Figures in Seven Months Without a High-Volume Clinic
Q: If you were to do it all over again, what would you do differently?
She would have quit the other clinic sooner to avoid burnout and refocus on building her own brand and offers, aided by coaching to reframe risk and value.
EP145 Six Figures in Seven Months Without a High-Volume Clinic
Q: How did the postpartum offering come about and how did you navigate getting it off the ground?
She explains the idea emerged while balancing boards and training, merging clinical Chinese medicine with culinary elements, and then refining the model into client-appropriate packages rather than one-to-one care.
EP145 Six Figures in Seven Months Without a High-Volume Clinic
Q: Tell us a little about yourself, where you practice, and your specialty.
Tara describes being a licensed acupuncturist in Brooklyn, NYC, with a focus on women's health and postpartum care, and her evolution from student to private practitioner through entrepreneurial experimentation.
