There’s nothing better than seeing a client turn the corner — those little clinical wins that remind us why we do what we do.In this episode, I’m talking about how to take those wins and use them to market your practice in a way that feels genuine, not salesy. I’ll also cover the important bits: why you need permission before sharing, how to de-identify stories, and what the TGA says we can and can’t do. And yes, even the fails (like my salad-that-wasn’t-a-salad moment) can become part of your storytelling toolkit.And if you’d like to work out how to share your own wins in a way that grows your practice, book a free focus call with me at https://www.geraldineheadley.com/.Be part of the Confident Practitioner Community: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1543978942348737Work with Geraldine:www.geraldineheadley.comwww.instagram.com/mentoringwithgeraldine/

Ever had a client who’s ticking all the boxes but just not budging? Drives you a bit nuts, doesn’t it?In today’s episode, I’m talking about follow-up systems—because the good old “see you in two weeks” doesn’t suit everyone. Life’s busy, people are scattered, and sometimes the usual structure just doesn’t stick. I’ll walk you through how I’ve done it with my clients over the years, and how you can make your system fit the person in front of you—not just what you were told back in college.
