  • The Pillars of Success | Communication, Confidence, and Humility
    Oct 18 2024

    Are you ready to discover what sets successful people apart?


    Have you ever wondered what traits make someone stand out in their field?

    Welcome to another FANTAWESOME episode of the Uncaged Clinician podcast! I’m your host, David Bayliff, and in today’s episode, we’re tackling something big—what truly sets successful people apart. Recently, while hanging out with two of my best friends from physical therapy school, I realized something: these guys have been wildly successful, and they share a few common traits. That got me thinking—what do these traits look like, and how can we all adopt them? Spoiler alert: it’s all about communication, confidence, and humility. So buckle in, and let’s break this down.

    In this episode, I’ll delve into the following topics:

    • The power of effective communication for success

    • How confidence, when paired with humility, fosters genuine connections

    • The role humility plays in team success and leadership

    • Why asking questions and listening are key to growth

    At the heart of it, success isn’t about knowing it all or being the loudest voice in the room. It’s about communicating purposefully, showing confidence without ego, and remaining humble enough to recognize the value others bring. Remember, these are not traits people are born with—they’re skills you can learn and develop. So go out there, start practicing, and watch your success unfold.

  • Exit Strategies That Preserve Your Values
    Oct 16 2024

    Have you thought about your long-term vision for your practice, and what will happen when you’re ready to step away?

    What’s more important to you: the highest offer, or ensuring your practice’s mission stays intact?

    Welcome to the Uncaged Clinician podcast! I’m your host, Kevin DeGroot, and in today’s episode, we’re diving into something every clinician running a cash-based practice should be thinking about—exit strategies. We’re going to explore the challenges cash practice owners face when it comes to selling, including why many of us feel a deep sense of responsibility to make sure our business doesn’t lose its soul in the process.

    In this episode, I’ll delve into the following topics:

    • The common challenges of selling a cash-based practice.

    • Why private equity may not be the best fit for your business.

    • The importance of maintaining your practice’s mission, vision, and values during the sale.

    • Three potential exit strategies and their implications for you and your team.

    • How to empower clinicians within your practice to take ownership.


    As we wrap up this episode, remember, the legacy of your practice isn’t just about the financials—it’s about maintaining the heart and soul of what you’ve built. Whether you're thinking of selling tomorrow or 10 years from now, having a clear exit strategy ensures that your mission continues, and your practice lives on with the same values you instilled in it from day one.

    Uncaged Hack:
    “When you consider the people who are going to purchase your business, you have to consider whether they are going to maintain or destroy the mission, vision, and values that you set out to accomplish in the first place.” - Kevin DeGroot

  • Breaking Through Self-Doubt | Thrive as a Therapist and Business Owner
    Oct 4 2024

    Are you a therapist struggling with self-doubt and wondering if you're truly good enough for your clients?

    Have you asked yourself if you have what takes to thrive as a business owner?

    In this FANTAWESOME episode, I’m your host, David Bayliff, and today we're diving into a common but often unspoken challenge—imposter syndrome. As a clinician starting your own practice, have you ever found yourself thinking, “Am I good enough?” or “Will clients actually want to pay me for my expertise?” You’re not alone! In this episode, I’ll be sharing a real conversation I had with a student about overcoming these doubts and embracing the value you already bring to the table.

    In this episode, i’ll cover the following topics:

    • How to recognize imposter syndrome and its effects on your practice.

    • Practical ways to identify and reflect on your skills as a therapist.

    • Why changing environments doesn't change your core abilities.

    • Navigating financial conversations without losing confidence.

    As we wrap up, remember: You’ve got this! Overcoming imposter syndrome is about validating your own success. Reflect on your wins—those moments when you help clients hit their goals and when they send friends your way. You're already a great therapist; now it’s time to trust that truth and shine. Thank you for tuning into the Uncaged Clinician podcast. Let’s break free from self-doubt and thrive together!
