Dr. Wishnie is a powerhouse in healthcare leadership and transformational coaching, bringing 34 years of experience as a practicing podiatrist. Now a full-time coach for healthcare practitioners, Dr. Wishnie helps professionals navigate the complexities of running successful practices while maintaining a healthy work-life balance. As a certified leadership coach, keynote speaker, and author of two highly regarded business books, he’s passionate about empowering the next generation of healthcare leaders and helping them scale their businesses to new heights.

Dr. Peter Wishnie has spent 34 years in the healthcare industry and has transitioned from practicing podiatry to coaching other healthcare practitioners. He is a certified leadership coach, a highly sought-after keynote speaker, and the author of two business books. Dr. Wishnie’s transformational coaching has had a profound impact on healthcare professionals, helping them elevate their careers and build thriving practices. His mission is to empower healthcare leaders by teaching them how to run their businesses effectively, scale with ease, and create systems for long-term success.

• The Importance of Systems: Dr. Wishnie explains that creating solid systems from day one is essential for scaling and exiting a business successfully.
• Leadership and Delegation: Effective leadership and delegation are key to business growth. Dr. Wishnie teaches business owners how to delegate tasks, allowing their business to flourish while creating more time for personal life and growth.
• Planning for the Exit: Even as a new business owner, it’s crucial to plan for an exit strategy early. Building systems and tracking key performance indicators (KPIs) will increase the value of your business, making it ready for scaling or eventual sale.
• The Challenge of Hiring Good Staff: Dr. Wishnie shares the difficulties in hiring and retaining quality staff, especially in healthcare, and offers practical solutions for overcoming this obstacle.
• Adapting Systems: Systems are vital, but they must remain flexible enough to evolve and adapt to new ideas, market demands, and changes as the business grows.

Dr. Wishnie shares how he opened his own podiatry practice at 29, initially struggling with business management, but eventually turning it around. He talks about how he sold his practice to focus on coaching healthcare professionals full-time, pursuing his passion for leadership and transformational coaching.

Dr. Wishnie stresses that even as a new business owner, you should start planning for the exit. By creating systems and maintaining clean financial records from the beginning, you increase the business’s value, making it attractive to potential buyers or investors when the time comes.

Delegation is a key to business growth. Dr. Wishnie highlights that many healthcare providers take on too much, leading to burnout and confusion. He shares how effective delegation and leadership skills are essential for scaling a business and creating more time for personal and professional success.

• "Learning how to lead is going to get you more time in the end."
• "Systems are not written in stone. They are flexible and should evolve as the business grows."
• "When you run your business by the seat of your pants, it just gives you a lack of clarity and gives you anxiety."

Today, I’m excited to have Juliet Peters on the show, a former lawyer and passionate advocate for women’s leadership. We’ll dive deep into the topic of burnout, exploring how it manifests, why women are especially vulnerable, and the simple practices you can incorporate into your daily life to prevent it and stay aligned with your vision for success.

Juliet Peters brings a strong background in law and media, having worked in male-dominated industries. She’s a fierce advocate for empowering women to lead authentically, helping them break free from societal expectations. Juliet’s journey has been one of discovering her true self, moving from the traditional molds of leadership to creating her own path. She now helps others do the same, especially in the realm of business and leadership.

• Burnout is Real and Common: Juliet explains that burnout impacts everyone but stresses that women, especially those in transformational coaching or online businesses, often juggle multiple roles, increasing their risk of burnout.
• Resentment is a Warning Sign: Feeling frustration or anger towards normal tasks, losing interest in things you once loved, and constant dissatisfaction are major red flags for burnout.
• Daily Practices to Prevent Burnout: Juliet shares strategies like breathing exercises, meditation, and mindfulness, which can significantly reduce stress and keep you aligned with your coaching business goals.
• The Importance of Stopping: When burnout starts to creep in, stopping to notice the signs and taking time to assess what needs to change is crucial for maintaining personal and professional balance.
• Self-Sacrifice Leads to Burnout: Many women, especially those in coaching businesses, often prioritize others' needs over their own, which accelerates burnout.

• Juliet discusses how women, particularly those in the coaching industry, often bear the mental load of managing families, clients, and businesses simultaneously, adding to burnout risk.
• Juggling multiple responsibilities without time for self-care is a key factor contributing to burnout in transformational coaching careers.

• Other signs include procrastination, losing interest in personal or business-related activities, and neglecting your own needs while meeting the needs of clients or family.

• Step 1: Stop and Notice – Pay attention to the signs of burnout and take a moment to assess what needs to be adjusted in your coaching business or daily routine.
• Step 2: Take Action – Seek objective help, like calling a therapist or considering short-term solutions (such as medication) to regain balance and mental clarity.

• Juliet emphasizes the importance of daily breathing exercises, like the 4-7-8 method or 4-4-4-4 breathing, to reduce stress and improve mental clarity in your personal and business life.
• Meditation, yoga, and sound healing (e.g., binaural beats) can also be transformative tools to manage stress in high-performing coaching businesses.
• Juliet suggests focusing on micro moments of joy throughout the day, which can be more effective than traditional gratitude practices for maintaining balance and preventing burnout.
