How can clinicians start using AI without handing over their judgement, ethics or client care?

Next week on the Healthy Business Lab Podcast, I’m joined by David Lopis from AI for Clinicians for a practical conversation about tools, trust and thoughtful experimentation.

David is a psychologist and supervisor who has been exploring how AI can support clinicians, especially around admin, scribes, client resources, business development and practice efficiency.

We explored:
- why AI scribes are getting so much attention
- how AI may reduce admin load for clinicians
- the importance of privacy, compliance and professional responsibility
- why AI should not be treated as set and forget
- how clinicians can experiment with tools safely
- the value of peer learning and community discussion
- and how AI can help create more personalised resources for clients

This is a great conversation for psychologists, allied health professionals, practice owners and clinicians who are curious about AI but want to approach it thoughtfully.

Full episode coming next week.

New Healthy Business Lab Podcast episode now live.

In this episode I sat down with Filipa Bellette from Chris and Filly Functional Medicine for a conversation about burnout, business models and sustainable growth.

Filipa shared her own experience of burnout, including the patterns that sat underneath it: overdoing, perfectionism, people pleasing, money stress and struggling to say no.

That backstory matters, because it shaped the way she looked at business.

This was not just a conversation about client results or wellness advice.

It was about building a business that could deliver meaningful support without relying on a model that kept burning out the business owner.

We talked about the many experiments Filipa and Chris worked through as the business evolved:
- moving beyond pay-per-consult
- testing hybrid delivery
- creating online programs
- trialling memberships
- learning from offers that did not land
- improving messaging
- changing pricing
- investing in expert support
- building authority through a book, media and client stories
- and now exploring retreats as another business model experiment

What stood out to me was the constant learning.

Not everything worked. But the learning shaped the next decision.

This is a great episode for health, wellness and allied health business owners thinking about sustainable business models, business owner wellbeing, and how to keep growing without ignoring what the business is costing you personally.

How do you build a business that can grow without burning you out in the process?
Next week on the Healthy Business Lab Podcast, I’m joined by Filipa Bellette from Chris and Filly Functional Medicine for a conversation about burnout, business models and sustainable growth.

Filipa’s work is deeply connected to her own experience with burnout, overdoing, perfectionism and the realisation that health cannot sit outside the business conversation.

But this episode is also a very practical business conversation.
Filipa shares how her business has evolved through a long list of experiments, including:
- pay-per-consult
- hybrid delivery
- online programs
- memberships
- messaging changes
- pricing shifts
- expert support
- authority building
- and retreats

Some experiments worked. Some did not. But each one helped shape a business model that could better support both the clients and the people delivering the work.

This is a useful conversation for health, wellness and allied health business owners who care deeply about their work, but also need a business that is sustainable for them.

Full episode coming next week.

Super excited to have locked in a webinar with Caitlin Hughes from Cathartic Collaborations.

We’ll be talking about 𝗙𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗦𝘆𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗺𝘀 𝗧𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗸 𝗪𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗡𝗲𝘂𝗿𝗼𝗱𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗴𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗕𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻.

As a neurodivergent business owner, and someone who works with plenty of neurodivergent business owners, I know how much difference the right financial systems can make.

Not more complexity. Systems that create visibility, reduce the number of decisions we need to make and still work when our capacity changes.

Caitlin will bring the neurodivergence, executive functioning and capacity lens. I’ll bring Financial Brain Care and the practical money systems.

📅 Thursday 15 October
⏰ 12pm AEST / 1pm AEDT
💻 Online

It’s still a little way off, but if you’re someone who likes getting things into the calendar early, you can register here:

Really looking forward to this conversation, and I suspect it might be the start of a few more in this space.

New Healthy Business Lab Podcast episode now live.

In this episode I sat down with Jasmine Bow from JB Graphic Design for a conversation about allied health branding, brand foundations and building confidence in business.
Jasmine works with allied health and NDIS business owners across branding, websites, social media and design.

What stood out to me in this conversation was that Jasmine’s work is not just about creating a logo.

It is about helping business owners unpack:
- who they work with
- what their audience values
- what makes their business different
- where the business is heading
- why their current brand may no longer fit
- and how to create branding that supports the next stage of growth

We also spoke about overwhelm, strategy, rebranding, niching, confidence, and the ripple effects that happen when a business owner has the clarity to show up properly.

This is a great episode for allied health and NDIS business owners who are thinking about their brand, their positioning, or whether the way they currently present their business still reflects the work they do.

We all have a unique relationship with money that quietly shapes every decision we make, often without us realising it.

The “Unlock Your Money Code Quiz” helps you understand the patterns behind your money habits and where they’re influencing your financial decisions.

It’s not about judgement or fixing anything. It’s about self-awareness that leads to more intentional, confident choices.

What if your brand is not just about looking professional, but actually helping you feel clearer and more confident in your business?

Next week on the Healthy Business Lab Podcast, I’m joined by Jasmine Bow from JB Graphic Design for a conversation about allied health branding, business foundations and building confidence through strategy.

Jasmine works with allied health and NDIS business owners to create branding, websites and design that go deeper than just a logo.

We explored:
- why branding is more than pretty graphics
- how Jasmine found her niche in allied health and NDIS
- why many business owners arrive feeling overwhelmed
- the importance of values, audience and business strategy
- what established businesses need to consider when rebranding
- how brand foundations can support future growth
- and how confidence grows when your brand finally feels aligned

This is a great conversation for allied health and NDIS business owners who know their current brand may not fully reflect where their business is heading.

Full episode coming next week.
