397 - Reignite Your Why Rediscovering Purpose in Podiatry Before the New Year

As 2025 winds down, now’s the perfect time to pause and ask yourself one powerful question: Why did I get into podiatry in the first place?

In this episode of the Podiatry Legends Podcast, I invite you to step back from the day-to-day and reconnect with the deeper why behind your work. Because when your podiatry business starts to feel heavy, uninspired, or off-track, it’s rarely a patient problem, staffing issue or business problem; it’s usually a purpose problem.

Before You Launch Into 2026...

If you rush into the new year without reconnecting to your purpose, you’ll likely carry the same frustrations forward.

This December, take 30 minutes to reflect. Don’t just set goals; realign them with your why to make your goals more worthwhile. 

Because when you do, work feels lighter. Marketing feels easier. Your team works better. And you start building a clinic and a life that actually energises you.

No one wants a business coach; however, if you are looking, let's talk.  

A business owner I spoke with in early 2024 made an extra $40,000 by following my advice from a 30-minute FREE Zoom call. They were so happy that they bought me a $400 bottle of bourbon. That's a win-win for both of us.

396 - Embracing the Plateau: What to Do When Growth Stalls in Your Podiatry Practice or Career

Every podiatrist hits a plateau at some point in their career; when growth stalls, motivation dips, and business feels flat. But a plateau isn’t failure; it is feedback.

In this short solo episode, I share how to shift your mindset, avoid impulsive changes, and use a plateau as an opportunity to reset, refocus, and rebuild momentum. I also explore three types of plateaus, REVENUE, MOTIVATION & TEAM, and offer strategies to overcome each one.

If you’re ready to move from “stuck” to strategic, this one’s for you.

The Mindset Every Successful Podiatrist Needs in 2026 with Dr Peter Wishnie

In this episode of the Podiatry Legends Podcast, I sit down with my good friend and fellow business coach, Dr Peter Wishnie. We unpack the mindset differences between scarcity and abundance, the danger of relying on your “robot brain,” and the habits that hold podiatrists back without them realising. This is a straight-talking conversation about growth, leadership, and the hidden beliefs that shape our decisions as clinicians and business owners. If you want to think differently heading into the new year, this episode will give you a fresh lens. We also dive into public speaking confidence, video creation, delegation, competition, and why the world of podiatry coaching needs variety. Watch the full episode and let it challenge and inspire how you view your practice. You can connect with Dr Peter Wishnie by email at drwishnie@gmail.com or on Instagram @coach_peterwishnie.

394 - The Mindset Every Successful Podiatrist Needs in 2026 with Dr Peter Wishnie

This week I’m joined by long-time friend, podiatrist, and business coach Dr Peter Wishnie. Peter and I have known each other for more than a decade, and although we technically work in the same space, we’ve never competed. Instead, we’ve worked alongside each other with an abundance mindset because when you understand your strengths, your ideal clients, and your purpose, there’s more than enough opportunity to go around.

In this episode, we unpack the massive difference between scarcity and abundance, and why so many podiatrists unknowingly sabotage themselves with old beliefs about money, competition, and “not being good enough.”

We also dive into the concept of the robot brain, and how much of your day is run on autopilot without you realising it. Innovation never comes from the robot, so if you want next year to be different, you’ll need to consciously take back control of your thinking.

We also explore confidence, delegation, public speaking, personalised marketing, and the danger of generic “mass coaching” funnels that don’t understand podiatry.

Peter shares insights from 30+ years in practice, plus a sneak peek at his upcoming book, It’s Not Your Fault (Unless It Is). If you’re ready to think differently about how you practise, lead, and grow, this episode is for you.

If you want to connect with Peter, his email is drwishnie@gmail.com, and you can also find him on LinkedIn at Coach Peter Wishnie and on Instagram: @coach_peterwishnie.

The Foot & Ankle Show has become one of the most energetic, community-driven podiatry conferences in the world, and in this episode, I speak with founder Tony Gavin about how the show has grown, adapted, and evolved into a global event.

What Seattle Businesses Get Right

Seattle is an incredible city, but what really stood out to me on my recent trip wasn’t just the food or the waterfront views; it was the way certain businesses stopped people in their tracks.

In this video, I walk you through a handful of standout operators at Pike Place Market: Beecher’s Handmade Cheese with its behind-the-glass cheese-making theatre, the iconic Pike Place Fish Market and their famous flying fish, Bonnie B’s pickled preserves with irresistible free samples, and Hellenika Cultured Creamery, where Greek yoghurt and ice-cream-style creations churn right in front of you.

These businesses don’t just sell a product; they show the process, and because of that, customers line up, pull out their phones, and share the experience with the world.

And here’s where it becomes relevant for all small-business owners: every one of these businesses has built a visual hook that sparks curiosity, conversation, and free marketing.

392 - The 25-Hour Consulting Week Creates Healthy Podiatrists with Daniel Monteleone

Healthy Practitioner, Healthy Business: The Future of Podiatry Practice

Running a podiatry clinic shouldn’t come at the expense of your health, happiness, or home life. Yet far too many practitioners are running on empty, juggling long hours, heavy patient loads, and the constant pressure to keep their businesses afloat.

In this week’s episode of the Podiatry Legends Podcast, I spoke with Daniel Monteleone, the owner of Proactive Health and Movement in Geelong, Victoria. Daniel’s outlook is refreshing: he’s built a business model that values wellbeing just as much as revenue, proving that a healthy practitioner really does lead to a healthy business.

Check Out My Upcoming Events 

Listen in as we unpack Daniel’s 25-hour consulting week, his philosophy on mentoring and trust, and how prioritising practitioner health first has fuelled nine years of business growth and team loyalty.

This episode is a must-hear for any podiatrist ready to step off the treadmill and design a practice that supports their life, not drains it.

392 - The 25-Hour Consulting Week Creates Healthy Podiatrists with Daniel Monteleone

Healthy Practitioner, Healthy Business: The Future of Podiatry Practice

Running a podiatry clinic shouldn’t come at the expense of your health, happiness, or home life. Yet far too many practitioners are running on empty, juggling long hours, heavy patient loads, and the constant pressure to keep their businesses afloat.

In this week’s episode of the Podiatry Legends Podcast, I spoke with Daniel Monteleone, the owner of Proactive Health and Movement in Geelong, Victoria. Daniel’s outlook is refreshing: he’s built a business model that values wellbeing just as much as revenue, proving that a healthy practitioner really does lead to a healthy business.

Check Out My Upcoming Events 

Listen in as we unpack Daniel’s 25-hour consulting week, his philosophy on mentoring and trust, and how prioritising practitioner health first has fuelled nine years of business growth and team loyalty.

This episode is a must-hear for any podiatrist ready to step off the treadmill and design a practice that supports their life, not drains it.

A podiatrist I spoke with in early 2024 earned an additional $40,000 by following my advice from a 30-minute free Zoom call.  This was probably the best 30-minute investment of their lives. Think about it: you have everything to gain and nothing to lose, and it’s not a TRAP.

How to Protect Your Reputation and Business During a Legal Crisi with Ta...

This week, we explore how divorce, drink-driving offences, and defamation can cripple a career or clinic if not handled properly, and why most people react far too late. My guest, Tad Nelson, a criminal defence lawyer and “Super Lawyer” from Galveston County, Texas, who brings more than three decades of courtroom experience, plus a master’s degree in forensic toxicology, to our conversation.

Tad has seen the best and worst of human behaviour, and his insights apply directly to business owners navigating legal, personal, or reputation challenges.

Tad explains the importance of acting fast, staying calm, and getting professional help, both legal and PR,  before the fallout damages your brand, income, or family. He also shares his philosophy that a strong reputation isn’t repaired after a crisis; it’s built long before one happens.

This episode is packed with practical advice on staying ahead of legal problems, managing perception in the age of social media, and leading with integrity under pressure. Whether you’re a podiatrist, clinic owner, or entrepreneur in any field, you’ll take away lessons on communication, humility, and protecting the business you’ve worked so hard to build.

390 - Expanding and Employing the Right Podiatrists with Dr Patrick McEneaney

This week, I’m joined again by Dr Patrick McEneaney, DPM from Northern Illinois Foot & Ankle Specialists. Patrick shares how he’s grown to 16 clinics by hiring intentionally, tracking the right metrics, and knowing when to consolidate.

We talk about the lessons of leadership, the art of delegation, and why cultural alignment is the real key to long-term success.

Five Big Takeaways

1. Numbers tell the truth. Always track performance and retention.

2. Hire for attitude, not just skill. You can train techniques, not culture.

3. Growth requires letting go of ego. Make decisions based on data.

4. Consolidation isn’t failure; it’s refinement.

5. Smart leadership builds scalability, not stress.
