The Relationship Between Headcount and Profitability (She Slays Replay)
Description
In this She Slays Replay, Kirby and Lauryn get honest about one of the hardest lessons in practice ownership—more team members don’t always equal more success. They reflect on the early days when lean operations brought in the most profit, and how growing their team too quickly led to stress, inefficiency, and pressure on everyone involved.
This segment dives into the uncomfortable reality that good intentions aren’t enough to sustain a business. From the emotional toll of carrying unnecessary payroll to the ripple effects it has on culture and performance, Kirby and Lauryn unpack how profitability, team size, and leadership pressure are more connected than most chiropractors realize.

Rich Doc Playbook
Let's be honest. We've all been given the same playbook. Go to grad school. Become a great doctor. Open a clinic. Help enough people. Work hard. Build a successful practice. Make plenty of money. Be happy. That was the promise. Yet here you are. Maybe your clinic is thriving. Maybe you're still trying to get it off the ground. Either way, there's a good chance you're chasing the same thing almost every healthcare entrepreneur is chasing: the belief that the next milestone will finally make everything click. The Rich Doc Playbook was created to challenge that assumption. Not because building a successful clinic isn't important, but because we believe there's a bigger conversation our profession isn't having.
