Welcome to this edition of catch up
with Kiro touch. I'm your host,
2
00:00:05.280 --> 00:00:10.480
Dr Ronnie Sims, and I'm super
excited today to have a repeat guest on
3
00:00:10.519 --> 00:00:16.280
our show, Dr Cathy from Georgia. Welcome Cathy. Thank you, Dr
4
00:00:16.359 --> 00:00:19.000
Ronnie. How are you doing?
Well? Doing well. I'm so glad
5
00:00:19.000 --> 00:00:23.199
to have you back on. I
really enjoyed our first conversation and I'm looking
6
00:00:23.239 --> 00:00:26.839
forward to seeing where this one goes
today. So let's go ahead and dive
7
00:00:26.960 --> 00:00:32.719
right in. And so again,
I appreciate you and I appreciate your willingness
8
00:00:32.719 --> 00:00:36.079
to come on and I know,
like me, you have a huge vision
9
00:00:36.079 --> 00:00:40.679
for Chiropractic and you love Chiropractic and
you love people and I know you're always
10
00:00:40.679 --> 00:00:45.200
building your teams and you're you're just
an amazing advocate for the profession. I've
11
00:00:45.200 --> 00:00:50.479
heard you speak on big stages and
you're super inspiring and you really Um I
12
00:00:50.520 --> 00:00:53.960
think, raised the consciousness of what
we should be doing in Chiropractic. So
13
00:00:54.039 --> 00:00:58.119
I just appreciate you as a person
and let's do rock and roll on this.
14
00:00:58.240 --> 00:01:03.959
So first question for your experienced opinion. How important is the woman chiropractor
15
00:01:04.120 --> 00:01:08.519
toward this amazing profession? Chiropractic.
If you looked at our future, how
16
00:01:08.519 --> 00:01:11.519
do you see women in that?
That's such a great question. It's a
17
00:01:11.560 --> 00:01:15.599
great way to start off because if
you look at our profession historically, most
18
00:01:15.599 --> 00:01:19.400
people think of our profession as a
very male dominated profession. But go back
19
00:01:19.439 --> 00:01:23.400
to the early days, the first
Chiropractic textbook was written by a woman,
20
00:01:23.640 --> 00:01:26.959
right, and people seem to forget
that, but minorth Paxson wrote the first
21
00:01:27.000 --> 00:01:32.439
Chiropractic textbook and then you had maybel
very involved and in my experience you had
22
00:01:32.519 --> 00:01:36.920
Dr Nell very involved. So we
always had a lot of women that were
23
00:01:36.959 --> 00:01:42.359
influential, but not necessarily in positions
of leadership. And to the women's credit,
24
00:01:42.439 --> 00:01:46.799
I think that the doors just were
not open for many years. You
25
00:01:46.840 --> 00:01:49.319
know, for most women, myself
included, you had to show up and
26
00:01:49.359 --> 00:01:53.120
show up and show up, and
every time you showed up there was never
27
00:01:53.159 --> 00:01:56.920
an opportunity. And then you show
up again and there's still not an opportunity,
28
00:01:56.959 --> 00:02:00.000
and most women just kind of got
to the point where they were fresh
29
00:02:00.040 --> 00:02:02.879
straight and they've been there for way
too many opportunities that they got passed over
30
00:02:02.959 --> 00:02:07.599
four but now what we're seeing is
in the last ten to fifteen years,
31
00:02:08.120 --> 00:02:15.520
we're seeing more and more opportunities for
women and more and more organizations, universities,
32
00:02:15.120 --> 00:02:20.599
State Association, starting to realize that
we need to have a better representation
33
00:02:20.800 --> 00:02:25.280
of who our profession actually is,
as well as who we desire to serve.
34
00:02:25.719 --> 00:02:29.360
I mean, look at any school. The schools are fifty and fifty
35
00:02:29.360 --> 00:02:34.240
two percent female at this point.
So we have to start seeing more women
36
00:02:34.840 --> 00:02:42.639
in leadership positions and letting our profession
demonstrate more examples of success so that our
37
00:02:42.800 --> 00:02:46.879
future students, on our current students, have something to aspire to and someone
38
00:02:46.960 --> 00:02:50.639
to look toward as their mentor and
as a leader, as a coach.
39
00:02:51.599 --> 00:02:54.919
That's awesome. Now I'm so glad
that you're stepping up into leadership yourself,
40
00:02:55.080 --> 00:02:59.080
and I know we'll talk about that
in a little bit later as to what
41
00:02:59.080 --> 00:03:01.520
you're doing with that. But no, I think you're spot on there and
42
00:03:01.520 --> 00:03:06.319
and it's time right, it's it's
our culture is right for this right.
43
00:03:07.120 --> 00:03:09.960
Absolutely. Think about I mean women. Women are the nurturers, where the
44
00:03:10.000 --> 00:03:15.479
caregivers. We typically are the decision
makers when it comes to financial decisions in
45
00:03:15.479 --> 00:03:17.759
the household. So you know,
women hold the pocket book, they hold
46
00:03:17.759 --> 00:03:22.000
the purse strings, whatever the terminology
you want to call it. We are
47
00:03:22.039 --> 00:03:24.919
responsible for the safety, the health, the well being of our families and
48
00:03:25.800 --> 00:03:30.599
oftentimes women are the providers. You
know, in my own situation I am
49
00:03:30.639 --> 00:03:32.360
the sole provider for my family and
have been for many, many years.
50
00:03:32.400 --> 00:03:38.919
So when you look at the position
that women have to step into, juggling
51
00:03:38.000 --> 00:03:44.159
multiple hats, it only makes sense
that when they step into Chiropractic as the
52
00:03:44.240 --> 00:03:49.039
doctor, as the office manager,
as the associate, as the team leader,
53
00:03:49.080 --> 00:03:53.439
as the CEO of their practice,
they're used to juggling multiple hats.
54
00:03:53.520 --> 00:03:57.840
They're used to not having someone else
who takes care of all the smaller tasks.
55
00:03:58.120 --> 00:04:02.120
So they're very good at micromanaging,
they're very good at multitasking, they're
56
00:04:02.199 --> 00:04:06.520
very good at shifting gears and making
sure that everything gets done. So why
57
00:04:06.560 --> 00:04:11.520
wouldn't we want women in those leadership
positions, because they already know how to
58
00:04:11.639 --> 00:04:15.439
juggle multiple opportunities and multiple tasks.
Oh No, that's so true, that's
59
00:04:15.480 --> 00:04:19.680
so spot on. The woman is
the key in the household today as far
60
00:04:19.759 --> 00:04:24.800
as um the kid's health and their
health, and they make all these critical
61
00:04:24.839 --> 00:04:29.199
decisions and they should be in these
leadership positions at our schools, at our
62
00:04:29.240 --> 00:04:34.839
associations and even locally. And so
for me I've really it's not just hearing
63
00:04:34.879 --> 00:04:40.519
about this, I've lived this out
for thirteen years because my number one right
64
00:04:40.560 --> 00:04:46.079
hand associate is the amazing Dr Krista, and you know, I just can't
65
00:04:46.079 --> 00:04:50.879
imagine my life without her. She
she can tell me the plain and simple
66
00:04:50.920 --> 00:04:56.439
truth when I need to hear it. She's very direct with me and she
67
00:04:56.639 --> 00:04:59.920
is an amazing caregiver and she's an
amazing leader in our community. And I
68
00:05:00.040 --> 00:05:04.399
think about the number of families that
whose lives have been changed because of Dr
69
00:05:04.519 --> 00:05:09.519
Krista. These are individuals I never
would have met, you know, just
70
00:05:09.560 --> 00:05:15.560
because she's Um so attractional and her
personality and and she's very involved in a
71
00:05:15.560 --> 00:05:18.600
lot of different avenues that I never
would have been invited into. And for
72
00:05:18.639 --> 00:05:24.600
me it's been an absolute game changer
in my life, and I know exactly
73
00:05:24.680 --> 00:05:29.319
I mean. For me, especially
the mid fifties guy who's set in his
74
00:05:29.439 --> 00:05:32.439
way, is kind of a hard
headed new client. I refer them immediately
75
00:05:32.439 --> 00:05:36.600
to her because they will do whatever
she says. They'll look at me and
76
00:05:36.600 --> 00:05:40.160
they all want do anything I tell
them to do. But anyway, in
77
00:05:40.199 --> 00:05:42.720
your own experience with this, and
I know you've always liked me, have
78
00:05:42.800 --> 00:05:46.160
been building teams and whatnot. Um, you know how important are our teams.
79
00:05:46.600 --> 00:05:49.720
You know for me it's it balances
me out so well. But kind
80
00:05:49.720 --> 00:05:51.839
of speak into that a little bit. And where do you see the profession
81
00:05:51.879 --> 00:05:58.879
going as it relates to building these
dynamic teams? I think the best future
82
00:05:58.959 --> 00:06:02.639
for our profession would be to see
multiple doctors in an office together, and
83
00:06:02.680 --> 00:06:06.920
whether that's as like an owner associate
model or whether that's as a team model.
84
00:06:08.879 --> 00:06:15.199
If we're going to start really seeing
of these female students go into the
85
00:06:15.199 --> 00:06:18.879
profession and stay in the profession,
then we have to provide opportunities or create
86
00:06:18.920 --> 00:06:23.240
opportunities where they can be successful.
And listen, let's face it, we
87
00:06:23.319 --> 00:06:26.639
have to be able to define our
own level of success, because just because
88
00:06:26.639 --> 00:06:30.160
one person wants to see a thousand
people a minute, right doesn't mean that
89
00:06:30.199 --> 00:06:33.319
everybody wants to do that. And
some people don't define success as seeing a
90
00:06:33.399 --> 00:06:38.959
gazillion patients. Some people define success
as being able to do all the things
91
00:06:38.959 --> 00:06:42.199
that they want to do with their
life as far as their family or as
92
00:06:42.199 --> 00:06:46.079
far as raising children, or as
far as giving back to the profession or
93
00:06:46.360 --> 00:06:49.519
being able to speak and teach and
lead, whether in the profession or outside
94
00:06:49.519 --> 00:06:53.439
of the profession, bringing more people
to an understanding of a greater level of
95
00:06:53.439 --> 00:06:58.079
health. So everybody's definition of success
is slightly different. But when you look
96
00:06:58.120 --> 00:07:01.920
at most women, society has placed
a lot of demands on us. If
97
00:07:01.920 --> 00:07:04.839
a woman is going to have children, guests, who ends up taking care
98
00:07:04.839 --> 00:07:09.199
of the children? More often than
not it's usually the woman, right and
99
00:07:09.319 --> 00:07:14.600
so there's so many more demands put
on women that when we could create practices
100
00:07:15.199 --> 00:07:19.160
that allow several chiropractice to come together, where one can have a maternity leave
101
00:07:19.600 --> 00:07:24.319
or another one can take time off
to go to their kids play or to
102
00:07:24.399 --> 00:07:28.800
be at a graduation or to go
participate in a school event where they're donating
103
00:07:28.800 --> 00:07:31.480
their time or to go out and
speak to the profession or to go out
104
00:07:31.519 --> 00:07:36.000
and speak to different organizations in their
community, when we have an opportunity for
105
00:07:36.079 --> 00:07:41.879
people to come together and run a
practice together, now we're creating that different
106
00:07:41.920 --> 00:07:46.199
definition of what a successful practice looks
like. It doesn't necessarily mean eight hours
107
00:07:46.199 --> 00:07:49.240
a day, five days a week, twelve hours a day, four days
108
00:07:49.279 --> 00:07:53.560
a week. It could mean three
hours a day. It could mean an
109
00:07:53.560 --> 00:07:56.199
hour in the morning and four hours
in the afternoon, with time to get
110
00:07:56.199 --> 00:07:59.000
the kids off the bus or time
to go to the gym or time to
111
00:07:59.000 --> 00:08:03.079
go do a lunch and learn in
the community. We can create a new
112
00:08:03.240 --> 00:08:07.199
version of success and it can be
defined by each individual chiropractor. So whether
113
00:08:07.319 --> 00:08:11.279
you're putting men into the office or
you're putting women into the office, being
114
00:08:11.319 --> 00:08:16.040
able to have that flexibility so that
you can travel, you can take time
115
00:08:16.079 --> 00:08:20.480
off, you're not chained to the
adjusting table, you're able to have different
116
00:08:20.519 --> 00:08:24.879
providers that can give care to the
patients while you're out doing something else that
117
00:08:24.959 --> 00:08:28.720
makes your heart happy. That's a
greater level of success and I think that
118
00:08:28.800 --> 00:08:33.960
would open the door from where people
staying in Chiropractic versus getting burned out and
119
00:08:35.000 --> 00:08:37.919
thing, you know what, I
have to take time off to go address
120
00:08:37.039 --> 00:08:41.639
other family concerns or other life concerns
and then never coming back into practice.
121
00:08:43.120 --> 00:08:48.840
So let's let's hopefully see some better
opportunities in the future of chiropractic where it
122
00:08:48.960 --> 00:08:54.480
is more flexible and it is more
conducive to that multitasking person that has to
123
00:08:54.559 --> 00:08:58.440
run a lot of different things in
their life. Wow, that's a great
124
00:08:58.480 --> 00:09:01.279
way of looking at it and I
think Um for me, and again I
125
00:09:01.320 --> 00:09:05.120
think about my own situation and you
made me think of how I set my
126
00:09:05.200 --> 00:09:09.000
relationship up with Dr Krista. In
the beginning was completely upside down because I
127
00:09:09.039 --> 00:09:13.759
just really didn't know. But as
we began to see her life unfold,
128
00:09:13.799 --> 00:09:18.679
where she became a single parent and
her demands increased, Um, you know,
129
00:09:18.759 --> 00:09:22.240
I used to think, oh,
an associate should just be on a
130
00:09:22.240 --> 00:09:24.559
percentage and they should have to go
out and beat the pavement. And and
131
00:09:24.600 --> 00:09:30.240
here's a person who's wired as an
empathetic caregiver. She could be a good
132
00:09:30.240 --> 00:09:33.399
business builder, but she doesn't have
the bandwidth for that. So we flipped
133
00:09:33.440 --> 00:09:37.799
that long ago and put her on
a more of a higher salary with benefits.
134
00:09:39.360 --> 00:09:41.440
I wanted to take all the stress
away from her because I knew how
135
00:09:41.480 --> 00:09:46.360
amazing she was as an empathetic caregiver
and she's a great speaker and she's great
136
00:09:46.360 --> 00:09:50.480
at screen. I just didn't want
to put that on her plate because I
137
00:09:50.480 --> 00:09:52.840
wanted to keep her life in alignment, and so I began to take care
138
00:09:52.840 --> 00:09:58.279
of more for her and began to
funnel new patients to her and I became,
139
00:09:58.399 --> 00:10:00.960
you know, did more of the
marketing and more business building and let
140
00:10:01.000 --> 00:10:05.000
her just be an amazing caregiver.
And if I didn't adapt and pivot on
141
00:10:05.080 --> 00:10:07.200
that, I would have our relationship
would have blown up. And so I
142
00:10:07.200 --> 00:10:09.879
think for me, from where I'm
sitting now, I think what you said
143
00:10:09.960 --> 00:10:15.360
is so true. I don't think
a lot of our chiropractors out there that
144
00:10:15.440 --> 00:10:18.720
have their own practice, that are
thinking about hiring an associate, are thinking
145
00:10:18.759 --> 00:10:20.759
through all of this the way that
you and I would. Who is it
146
00:10:20.799 --> 00:10:24.679
I'm looking for and what are my
expectations of them? Um, you know,
147
00:10:24.759 --> 00:10:28.159
and am I going to generate new
patients for them? Are they going
148
00:10:28.200 --> 00:10:30.240
to be required to go out and
do it on their own? And I
149
00:10:30.240 --> 00:10:33.320
think we don't pay them enough out
of school. I feel like we need
150
00:10:33.360 --> 00:10:35.519
to give them, you know,
some really good salaries so they have some
151
00:10:37.480 --> 00:10:41.200
a safety net. I mean student
loans now are crazy right, and and
152
00:10:41.240 --> 00:10:43.799
just the cost of living. So
maybe speak further into that as you look
153
00:10:43.840 --> 00:10:48.039
at giving some advice to that doctor
out there, and maybe the lead doctor
154
00:10:48.279 --> 00:10:52.159
is is a woman who has a
vibrant practice that wants to bring some other
155
00:10:52.840 --> 00:10:58.000
practitioners on our team. What should
they consider? Well, I think that
156
00:10:58.720 --> 00:11:01.840
a lot out of the students,
and understand that I've been teaching at Life
157
00:11:01.919 --> 00:11:05.240
University for the last almost fourteen years, I think that a lot of students
158
00:11:05.279 --> 00:11:09.679
have a misconception about what they're worth
is when they graduate, when they have
159
00:11:09.759 --> 00:11:13.639
no experience. Most of them won't
have a license for at least ten to
160
00:11:13.679 --> 00:11:16.519
twelve weeks Um and maybe most of
them have never worked in a job before.
161
00:11:16.559 --> 00:11:20.799
So they just assume that because they
have a degree they're entitled to a
162
00:11:20.879 --> 00:11:24.120
huge paycheck and there has to be
an exchange right. Otherwise they are just
163
00:11:24.159 --> 00:11:30.159
a liability to the practice. They're
not an asset. Understanding what people's skills
164
00:11:30.200 --> 00:11:35.399
are, understanding what their personality types
are, makes it a lot easier to
165
00:11:35.480 --> 00:11:39.639
decide. Is this an associate with
a paid salary, is this an independent
166
00:11:39.679 --> 00:11:43.919
contractor, or is this someone in
the middle? And I think the future
167
00:11:43.399 --> 00:11:48.559
is that somewhere in the middle,
where there's a base pay plus a percentage
168
00:11:48.600 --> 00:11:52.159
or plus an incentive or plus a
bonus or salary, you know, in
169
00:11:52.200 --> 00:11:58.440
addition to their salary, because most
owners have gotten burned by the salary model.
170
00:11:58.840 --> 00:12:01.080
Let's face it, you pay somebody
a salary they don't produce, you
171
00:12:01.200 --> 00:12:05.399
keep paying them, you keep paying
them. It's coming out of your portion
172
00:12:05.480 --> 00:12:07.840
of the Pie and eventually they start
to bring patients in and they want more
173
00:12:07.879 --> 00:12:11.840
money and the owner is sitting there
going, but I just paid you a
174
00:12:11.919 --> 00:12:15.159
salary for the last six months and
you didn't produce and now you want more
175
00:12:15.200 --> 00:12:20.000
money. It's hard for the owner. And then the new Grad is sitting
176
00:12:20.039 --> 00:12:22.679
there thinking, well, you know, I can make more money working at
177
00:12:22.679 --> 00:12:28.360
Burger King. Not Really, because
if you're willing to do the work that
178
00:12:28.480 --> 00:12:33.600
it takes to be successful, there's
no limit to how much you can earn,
179
00:12:33.000 --> 00:12:37.360
and there's a very big difference between
earn and being paid. So I
180
00:12:37.399 --> 00:12:41.440
think that that somewhere in between the
straight salary and the straight commission. There's
181
00:12:41.480 --> 00:12:46.600
that base plus and some people will
fit into that model. Other people will
182
00:12:46.639 --> 00:12:52.600
fit into that salaried employee and that's
where they will do their best work and
183
00:12:52.639 --> 00:12:56.200
they will absolutely excel in that position. And then you have some people who
184
00:12:56.240 --> 00:13:01.600
will absolutely excel when there are no
restrictions on them whatsoever. Let me earn
185
00:13:01.600 --> 00:13:05.360
as much as I possibly can earn. Just turn me loose. So we
186
00:13:05.480 --> 00:13:09.759
have to be honest with ourselves.
Where is my practice and what would fit
187
00:13:09.759 --> 00:13:13.799
best in my practice? And then
our docs that are looking for these positions
188
00:13:13.879 --> 00:13:18.759
need to be honest with themselves.
What are my skills, what's my personality
189
00:13:18.799 --> 00:13:24.840
type and what would best serve me
and make me able to serve at my
190
00:13:24.919 --> 00:13:28.879
highest capacity. So when we're when
we're truly honest with ourselves with what is
191
00:13:28.879 --> 00:13:31.279
it that I want and what do
I expect from somebody if I step into
192
00:13:31.279 --> 00:13:35.600
this position, then we have a
better opportunity, because you might have some
193
00:13:35.799 --> 00:13:39.840
of your associates that are on straight
salary and others that are on a base
194
00:13:39.840 --> 00:13:46.200
plus, and it just depends on
how they work and what motivates them.
195
00:13:46.720 --> 00:13:50.679
Listen, in Chiropractic we always talk
about serving our way through and being in
196
00:13:50.679 --> 00:13:56.000
a life of service. That means
different things to every person right and if
197
00:13:56.039 --> 00:14:01.320
we're going to serve at our highest, best capacity, what does that mean
198
00:14:01.440 --> 00:14:05.000
and how do we, as individuals, want to be rewarded for that level
199
00:14:05.000 --> 00:14:07.960
of service? Some just want to
pat on the back, some want the
200
00:14:07.000 --> 00:14:13.639
accolades, some want verbal affirmation,
some want finances and some want gifts.
201
00:14:13.080 --> 00:14:22.639
So when we understand how our associates
or prospective associates work and what they're basically
202
00:14:22.639 --> 00:14:24.879
like, their love languages are,
then we can understand how can I make
203
00:14:24.879 --> 00:14:31.080
them feel fulfilled, appreciated and,
Um, successful in this next endeavor.
204
00:14:33.039 --> 00:14:37.159
That's a great answer. You're right
on. I'll tell you, Um,
205
00:14:37.200 --> 00:14:41.080
if we only could have more business
training near the end of school or even
206
00:14:41.080 --> 00:14:45.559
once you're out of school, there
needs to be a chiropractic business university and
207
00:14:45.600 --> 00:14:48.240
I think what you're saying is spot
on. And I personally use the base
208
00:14:48.279 --> 00:14:54.600
plus model. And to your point, if I don't do some pretty exhaustive
209
00:14:54.000 --> 00:14:58.919
planning and and trying to figure out
what that Avatar looks like, what personnel
210
00:15:00.200 --> 00:15:03.120
trade should they be? M Are
they high patients, low patients, extra
211
00:15:03.200 --> 00:15:07.639
version, all those things we look
at and I think too often in Chiropractic
212
00:15:07.720 --> 00:15:11.279
we see practitioners plugging a square peg
into a round hole and then even going
213
00:15:11.320 --> 00:15:13.960
a step further putting them on the
wrong comp plan, like you said.
214
00:15:15.480 --> 00:15:20.080
So for me the base plus works
great for caregivers, especially in that first
215
00:15:20.159 --> 00:15:22.679
year they had that Nice base as
their building and as they're growing or how
216
00:15:22.720 --> 00:15:26.200
we're as we're helping them build and
then, like I tell my associates,
217
00:15:26.559 --> 00:15:31.639
I don't want you rely on on
your base past year one. You'RE gonna
218
00:15:31.679 --> 00:15:35.840
be so high into revenue percentage,
profit sharing, things like that. And
219
00:15:35.879 --> 00:15:41.879
you know, other things is like
malpractice insurance and continuing education workshops and healthcare,
220
00:15:43.039 --> 00:15:46.399
and these are all things I provide
for my associates because I don't want
221
00:15:46.399 --> 00:15:50.440
them to worry about that. I
want them to be unfettered so they can
222
00:15:50.799 --> 00:15:54.720
live their purpose out in our practice. So now, I appreciate your answer
223
00:15:54.720 --> 00:15:58.039
and I love that you're still in
the trenches at school. I think that's
224
00:15:58.279 --> 00:16:00.840
a great place for you right now. Now, can you speak specifically to
225
00:16:03.360 --> 00:16:07.919
the woman chiropractor and what are some
things that she could do if she's on
226
00:16:07.919 --> 00:16:10.200
her own? We might be speaking
to that audience right now. They're on
227
00:16:10.240 --> 00:16:15.679
their own and maybe they're struggling with
process procedure or perhaps here it's not attracting
228
00:16:15.759 --> 00:16:19.759
enough new patients. What are some
little just little nuggets you could give them
229
00:16:19.799 --> 00:16:25.240
as far as attracting more new patients, you know, with some women's specific
230
00:16:25.279 --> 00:16:30.480
stuff. So let me say this. Most and this is gonna sound very
231
00:16:30.519 --> 00:16:33.799
stereotypical and I apologize, but but
let me get it out and it will
232
00:16:33.799 --> 00:16:41.960
make sense. Most men played team
sports. Most women played individual sports,
233
00:16:42.480 --> 00:16:47.720
meaning women were gymnasts, they may
have been a cheerleader, they might have
234
00:16:47.759 --> 00:16:51.799
been a dancer, but they weren't
on a football team where it was a
235
00:16:51.840 --> 00:16:56.879
team mentality. So most women have
learned at this point, if they've made
236
00:16:56.879 --> 00:17:00.360
it through school, they are driven, they are the driver, they're a
237
00:17:00.440 --> 00:17:06.000
type, a right and it's it
all relies on them. They've never learned
238
00:17:06.000 --> 00:17:10.279
to have a team back them up, because they probably didn't have one of
239
00:17:10.319 --> 00:17:15.359
those, and so they probably also
didn't learn to have good coaches. And
240
00:17:15.519 --> 00:17:19.160
a lot of men in our profession
are. They're very open to being coached
241
00:17:19.200 --> 00:17:25.240
by a man. There's some women
who are open to being coached and unfortunately,
242
00:17:25.519 --> 00:17:29.599
not not to knock the men,
but unfortunately there hadn't been enough women
243
00:17:29.599 --> 00:17:33.599
stepping up into that position. So
a lot of times women would end up
244
00:17:33.599 --> 00:17:36.240
with a male coach who would basically
tell them, you know, you need
245
00:17:36.279 --> 00:17:37.759
to get up in an hour early
and do your hour of power, and
246
00:17:37.759 --> 00:17:41.880
women are like, but I just
finished nursing and putting the baby to bed
247
00:17:41.920 --> 00:17:42.279
and then all of a sudden I
had to get up in the middle of
248
00:17:42.359 --> 00:17:45.640
night and change the sheets and,
you know, and nurse the more and
249
00:17:45.720 --> 00:17:48.160
change a diaper and I just finally
got two hours of sleep and you want
250
00:17:48.200 --> 00:17:49.000
me to get up an hour early
to an hour of power? Are you
251
00:17:49.119 --> 00:17:53.119
crazy? But that was the only
message women were getting and I think right
252
00:17:53.160 --> 00:17:57.680
now we're so blessed to see in
our profession there's a lot more women coaches
253
00:17:57.720 --> 00:18:02.240
and a lot more women mentor is
out there and a lot of the male
254
00:18:02.359 --> 00:18:07.599
coaching programs are either incorporating women or
really starting to study and understand what a
255
00:18:07.599 --> 00:18:12.039
woman needs. And not to completely
divide us because we're chiropractors, period,
256
00:18:12.200 --> 00:18:18.799
end of story. But our needs
are different, our day to day activities
257
00:18:18.920 --> 00:18:22.480
are different, the demands placed on
us are different. Many people know that
258
00:18:22.559 --> 00:18:26.519
I've I've spoken on some of the
biggest stages for the last ten years and
259
00:18:26.680 --> 00:18:30.519
I speak with a lot of the
great men in our profession that I absolutely
260
00:18:30.519 --> 00:18:33.400
love in a door. But when
they would walk out the door to go
261
00:18:33.440 --> 00:18:36.359
to a seminar, sometimes they leave
the practice, go home, pick up
262
00:18:36.359 --> 00:18:38.119
a suitcase and walk out the door, kiss somebody good. Buy It that.
263
00:18:38.279 --> 00:18:41.680
I love your kids. See You
tomorrow or see in you know,
264
00:18:41.759 --> 00:18:45.000
two days. That's not the situation. As a woman like I had to
265
00:18:45.039 --> 00:18:51.160
finish the practice, negotiate every single
step of the way, have my nanny
266
00:18:51.279 --> 00:18:53.359
helping me, pack up my clothes, make sure that the laundry was done,
267
00:18:53.400 --> 00:18:56.720
the groceries were ordered, the food
was in the fridge, the kids
268
00:18:56.720 --> 00:19:00.000
would be taking care of for the
weekend and and I had to leave and
269
00:19:00.039 --> 00:19:03.480
then hurry up and get back to
make sure that the homeschool work was done
270
00:19:03.480 --> 00:19:08.039
in time for Monday morning. Very
different scenarios. So the demands placed on
271
00:19:08.079 --> 00:19:14.200
women and our profession are so drastically
different, not because of the profession,
272
00:19:14.640 --> 00:19:18.480
but because of the society that we've
all grown up in and what we,
273
00:19:18.599 --> 00:19:22.960
as young children, were exposed to
in the expectations put on us. So
274
00:19:22.079 --> 00:19:26.279
that leads us to a position where
there's so much different expectations that I think
275
00:19:26.319 --> 00:19:32.000
for women we need to be okay
with saying maybe I don't know how to
276
00:19:32.000 --> 00:19:33.839
do it all. I might have
been the top in my class and I
277
00:19:33.839 --> 00:19:37.759
had to push myself and I was
very driven in order to get to this
278
00:19:37.880 --> 00:19:41.599
level of success, but it's okay
to ask for help. Women are not
279
00:19:41.880 --> 00:19:45.839
typically very good at that because we've
learned how to just keep moving forward and
280
00:19:45.839 --> 00:19:49.119
don't let anybody see us cry and
don't let anybody see the vulnerable side,
281
00:19:49.160 --> 00:19:55.559
and we've learned how to go through
and do everything with no help. So
282
00:19:55.920 --> 00:19:59.039
for women, if you're listening,
if you've never asked for help before,
283
00:19:59.079 --> 00:20:02.200
it could be scary, it could
be intimidating, it could feel like,
284
00:20:02.240 --> 00:20:03.880
you know, if I let one
little crack show, the dam is just
285
00:20:03.920 --> 00:20:07.920
gonna burst button. I will assure
you when you ask for help from someone
286
00:20:07.960 --> 00:20:12.279
that's been there, gone through it, figured out how to get over those
287
00:20:12.319 --> 00:20:18.119
obstacles that you're facing right now,
you'll get over them faster, with a
288
00:20:18.160 --> 00:20:22.480
lot less struggle and a lot less
stress and a lot less money, energy
289
00:20:22.599 --> 00:20:26.440
time wasted, that you'll be able
to get to the next level of success
290
00:20:26.880 --> 00:20:30.119
so much faster. So ask for
help, reach out to other women that
291
00:20:30.160 --> 00:20:33.279
are doing it, reach out to
mentors or reach out to a coach or
292
00:20:33.480 --> 00:20:36.319
or, if you don't know who
to reach out to, reach out to
293
00:20:36.319 --> 00:20:37.359
me. I'll connect with someone.
Or if you want to work with me,
294
00:20:37.440 --> 00:20:41.839
that's fine, but reach out to
someone who can say look, it
295
00:20:41.920 --> 00:20:45.279
doesn't have to be this hard.
There's a way to do this easier,
296
00:20:45.599 --> 00:20:52.400
better, faster and get to your
desired level of success without all the pitfalls.
297
00:20:52.519 --> 00:20:56.440
And for women it's you know,
how do I manage the office?
298
00:20:56.680 --> 00:20:59.359
What do I do with my kids? Do I bring my babies into the
299
00:20:59.400 --> 00:21:02.319
office? Do I have my babies
with me in the office? Do I
300
00:21:02.400 --> 00:21:06.079
take off time when I'm going to
have children? Or what if your children
301
00:21:06.079 --> 00:21:07.960
are already grown? What do you
do now? What if you don't desire
302
00:21:07.960 --> 00:21:11.720
to have children? But what if
you want to have a family based practice?
303
00:21:12.000 --> 00:21:17.400
So all of those thoughts go into
how do I define my own level
304
00:21:17.400 --> 00:21:21.880
of success? And I think it's
essential that you reach out to other women,
305
00:21:21.920 --> 00:21:26.119
because women work in community. We
like to have these conversations. We
306
00:21:26.240 --> 00:21:30.319
do better when we're surrounded by like
minded individuals, even if it's somebody on
307
00:21:30.359 --> 00:21:33.559
the other end of the phone,
even if you're just face timing with someone
308
00:21:33.680 --> 00:21:37.160
or skyping or zooming or whatever you
want to do, but if you have
309
00:21:37.359 --> 00:21:41.640
someone else that you can reach out
to and say, AH, this isn't
310
00:21:41.720 --> 00:21:45.119
working, or wow, that was
really stressful, or wow, I just
311
00:21:45.200 --> 00:21:48.079
had my greatest success or my biggest
victory and I need someone to share it
312
00:21:48.119 --> 00:21:52.799
with. Women do better in community. So if you're already out there or
313
00:21:52.839 --> 00:21:56.960
you're getting into practice and you don't
have a community, it's time. It's
314
00:21:57.000 --> 00:22:02.079
time to get into one, because
that will help you define your own success
315
00:22:02.440 --> 00:22:08.559
and get there faster without all the
pitfalls. Wow, that's powerful. Are
316
00:22:08.599 --> 00:22:12.759
you a coach? I am.
I did take the last three years off
317
00:22:12.839 --> 00:22:19.480
because my children and I had to
go through some stuff that was challenging and
318
00:22:19.519 --> 00:22:22.599
I felt that it was an integrity
for me to be coaching any of my
319
00:22:22.720 --> 00:22:27.799
clients. So I released all my
clients and graciously they all understood, loved
320
00:22:27.839 --> 00:22:32.839
me, supported me, and I
just recently have gotten back and taking some
321
00:22:32.880 --> 00:22:36.119
of my clients back on, taking
some new clients back on and uh,
322
00:22:36.960 --> 00:22:41.119
and it's a great feeling because I
forgot how much I enjoy it and thankfully
323
00:22:41.160 --> 00:22:44.680
my clients has said to me,
you know, like you are that good,
324
00:22:44.720 --> 00:22:47.680
like we're glad we waited for you, because it was worth the wait.
325
00:22:47.839 --> 00:22:51.440
So I am starting to take some
clients back on, just a few,
326
00:22:51.599 --> 00:22:55.279
not too many, but I do
have a couple opportunities available. You.
327
00:22:55.279 --> 00:23:00.279
You your answer to that last question. It can it kind of exhausted
328
00:23:00.319 --> 00:23:06.119
me to think about what you described
right there. And and most guys like
329
00:23:06.200 --> 00:23:08.799
me. We can respect it,
but we when you don't live it,
330
00:23:08.880 --> 00:23:14.039
you don't really know what that feels
like. So how does I mean beyond
331
00:23:14.039 --> 00:23:17.960
what you just said, with coaching
and accountability groups and, you know,
332
00:23:18.039 --> 00:23:22.599
staying in community and being opening your
Heart Up to coaching, and maybe it's
333
00:23:22.599 --> 00:23:25.920
hard sometimes you get criticized too and
to be able to put your heart out
334
00:23:25.920 --> 00:23:29.240
there. But beyond that, you
know, you seem again like me,
335
00:23:29.960 --> 00:23:33.319
you're always working on keeping your life
in alignment, which sometimes it's overwhelming.
336
00:23:33.400 --> 00:23:37.240
You can't and that you were smart
enough to hit pause on some things,
337
00:23:37.519 --> 00:23:41.000
because I think you felt like,
I need to give my energy to my
338
00:23:41.079 --> 00:23:42.359
kids right now, or I need
to get my energy to the practice or
339
00:23:42.680 --> 00:23:45.960
you know, if you spread thisself
too thin, you know you're gonna be
340
00:23:45.000 --> 00:23:49.720
ineffective in every area. And so
how do what are some things you do
341
00:23:49.839 --> 00:23:55.440
personally in the recovery and repair space
of your life so that when you show
342
00:23:55.480 --> 00:24:03.079
up on Monday you're your normal energetic
Dr Cathy? So I have certain non
343
00:24:03.079 --> 00:24:08.039
negotiables and my non negotiables like my
day is ruined if I don't start with
344
00:24:08.039 --> 00:24:14.400
my nonnegotiables. So I start every
day and that's my children buzzing right now.
345
00:24:14.720 --> 00:24:18.799
I start every day with my own
personal time. So when I wake
346
00:24:18.920 --> 00:24:22.799
up, I stay in the bed, I do some stretches. That helped
347
00:24:22.799 --> 00:24:25.839
me, as a chiropractor, be
able to, you know, use my
348
00:24:25.920 --> 00:24:27.480
hands, my arms, my elbows, my wrist, my shoulders, because,
349
00:24:27.519 --> 00:24:30.480
let's face it, as women,
we're adjusting people twice our size all
350
00:24:30.559 --> 00:24:34.519
day long. I don't know many
men who adjust patients twice their size,
351
00:24:34.680 --> 00:24:38.519
because most of them I know are
five ten, six foot, a hundred
352
00:24:38.559 --> 00:24:42.519
and eighty two D to twenty.
As women, up five three D and
353
00:24:42.559 --> 00:24:47.519
twenty five pounds. Like half of
my patients are double my size and that's
354
00:24:47.559 --> 00:24:51.920
an ongoing daily issue that I have
to address, and that's the same for
355
00:24:51.960 --> 00:24:55.599
most women I talked to. So
I start every day, um, just
356
00:24:55.920 --> 00:25:02.200
in my own mind, just gratitude
and attitude, attitude, thankful expectation and
357
00:25:02.279 --> 00:25:06.880
stretching, and then cardio, before
anything hits my mouth, before food hits
358
00:25:06.920 --> 00:25:08.880
my mouth, some form of cardio, because I feel like I have to
359
00:25:10.039 --> 00:25:14.160
earn the day and I've got to
earn it by, you know, moving
360
00:25:14.160 --> 00:25:17.799
my body and making my body prepared
for that, and that puts me in
361
00:25:17.799 --> 00:25:19.480
the right frame of mind where like
I've already earned through the burn, I'm
362
00:25:19.519 --> 00:25:26.920
ready to be Um of service and
I'm ready to have gifts bestowed upon me.
363
00:25:26.319 --> 00:25:30.079
So for me, that's what charges
me up. If I missed that
364
00:25:30.160 --> 00:25:33.640
morning cardio and the whole rest of
the day is shot because I don't feel
365
00:25:33.640 --> 00:25:34.759
like I can catch up, even
when I go to the gym, I
366
00:25:34.799 --> 00:25:37.079
just don't feel like I can catch
up. So I might do my cardio,
367
00:25:37.200 --> 00:25:40.319
head to the gym lift. I
might, you know, hit the
368
00:25:40.359 --> 00:25:45.079
gym I have in the basement,
but I have to physically move in order
369
00:25:45.200 --> 00:25:49.319
to mentally be prepared to go serve
others. I've got to serve me before
370
00:25:49.319 --> 00:25:52.640
I can serve others, and that
goes from my children as well. I've
371
00:25:52.640 --> 00:25:56.079
got to serve me before I can
serve you, and then I'm a better
372
00:25:56.599 --> 00:26:00.519
servant to my children and I'm a
better servant to my community. And I
373
00:26:00.559 --> 00:26:04.640
think it's important for us to whatever
time frame you need to serve you in.
374
00:26:06.119 --> 00:26:07.880
It could be at the evening,
could be after everybody's gone to bed.
375
00:26:08.640 --> 00:26:11.119
For me, a lot of times
it's two o'clock in the morning because
376
00:26:11.119 --> 00:26:14.759
the east coast is quiet and then
I can deal with my west coast people.
377
00:26:15.160 --> 00:26:18.079
But you have to carve out some
kind of time to serve yourself,
378
00:26:18.680 --> 00:26:22.920
because we talk about getting lost in
service, but the reality is you can
379
00:26:23.000 --> 00:26:29.920
lose yourself in service and then who
are you? You have no idea anymore.
380
00:26:30.480 --> 00:26:33.519
So making sure that you are grounded
and who I am, what I
381
00:26:33.599 --> 00:26:37.279
do, why I do it,
so that I can do it better.
382
00:26:37.640 --> 00:26:41.319
That's huge. You have to understand
why you do this. You don't do
383
00:26:41.759 --> 00:26:47.279
what we do to make money.
That's a byproduct. Why do you do
384
00:26:47.319 --> 00:26:49.480
what you do? For me,
why am I a chiropractor? Because no
385
00:26:49.599 --> 00:26:53.720
parents should ever have to bury a
child, because babies aren't pin cushions right
386
00:26:53.839 --> 00:26:56.799
and I don't want them experimenting on
Children. I want to make sure that
387
00:26:56.920 --> 00:27:02.039
every man, every woman and every
child on the planet has the opportunity to
388
00:27:02.160 --> 00:27:07.200
grow up healthy, without interference and
function at the greatest capacity. I want
389
00:27:07.200 --> 00:27:11.240
to make sure that everybody has an
opportunity to know that their bodies were designed
390
00:27:11.559 --> 00:27:15.079
to be healthy. I want every
woman to know that she gets to choose
391
00:27:15.400 --> 00:27:19.480
how to birth her baby. It's
not a delivery, it's not a ups
392
00:27:19.519 --> 00:27:25.039
truck. A woman has the right
to choose how she births her baby and
393
00:27:25.319 --> 00:27:30.319
she has the right to know and
be empowered to feel that she can do
394
00:27:30.400 --> 00:27:33.240
it on our own is she so
chooses. So for me it's about why
395
00:27:33.279 --> 00:27:37.200
do we do what we do,
and if you stay connected to your why,
396
00:27:37.240 --> 00:27:40.759
then you can filter out all the
other stuff that comes at you,
397
00:27:40.799 --> 00:27:44.119
because opportunities will come, they may
not be the right ones for you.
398
00:27:44.839 --> 00:27:52.319
So knowing how to stay grounded to
what really matters is essential to being able
399
00:27:52.359 --> 00:27:57.720
to serve on a level that's right
for you. I love it. Yeah,
400
00:27:57.720 --> 00:28:02.319
I mean that's it's a beautiful way
to put it and you're so right.
401
00:28:02.440 --> 00:28:07.440
I feel like so many practitioners I
talked with, they lose their health,
402
00:28:07.799 --> 00:28:11.640
they lose their mind, they lose
their relationships in the act of service
403
00:28:12.039 --> 00:28:15.359
because, to your point, they're
not carving out that time. And so
404
00:28:15.640 --> 00:28:19.119
that was beautiful. Now, Um, we're kind of winding down here.
405
00:28:19.359 --> 00:28:22.759
There's so much you and I could
talk about. You hit on some really,
406
00:28:22.799 --> 00:28:27.480
really good stuff so far. You
mentioned accountability. Um, you mentioned
407
00:28:29.160 --> 00:28:33.480
women being part of something, you
know, that's bigger than themselves within chiropractic.
408
00:28:33.640 --> 00:28:37.240
Um, what are some opportunities out
there? I don't really know a
409
00:28:37.240 --> 00:28:41.480
lot about that. Um. Are
there organizations they can join? Um?
410
00:28:41.519 --> 00:28:45.839
What would be your advice on that? Yes, I would. I would
411
00:28:45.839 --> 00:28:48.920
be remiss if I did not mention
that for the first time ever, we
412
00:28:48.960 --> 00:28:53.920
have a female president of the I
C A, Dr Selena Sacabouze Jackson,
413
00:28:55.119 --> 00:28:59.000
right, and she's phenomenal. She's
also not only is she the president of
414
00:28:59.039 --> 00:29:02.359
the I C A, she is
also the treasurer of the League of Chiropractic
415
00:29:02.400 --> 00:29:04.839
women, which she's one of the
founding members. I've I've served on the
416
00:29:04.839 --> 00:29:07.960
board. I'm very honored to be
on the Board for the last ten,
417
00:29:08.079 --> 00:29:11.759
twelve years. What we're ten years
old. So I've been on the board
418
00:29:11.880 --> 00:29:15.720
for for the majority of the last
ten years and we've got incredible women that
419
00:29:15.799 --> 00:29:19.759
not only serve on the board of
the L cw but that are members of
420
00:29:19.759 --> 00:29:23.480
the L CW. So League of
Chiropractic women was founded by a group of
421
00:29:23.480 --> 00:29:29.839
women that said, look, there's
all these organizations that serve us as chiropractors,
422
00:29:29.839 --> 00:29:33.759
but none specifically tailored to the unique
needs of women in Chiropractic and by
423
00:29:33.799 --> 00:29:37.519
women in Chiropractic. We're talking about
the Chiropractor, we're talking about spouses see
424
00:29:37.599 --> 00:29:41.680
as the admins at the different universities
and, of course, the students,
425
00:29:41.759 --> 00:29:48.319
as well as patient advocates. So
this organization was was formed in March to
426
00:29:48.559 --> 00:29:53.759
address the unique needs of women and
to help to help inspire women, empower
427
00:29:53.799 --> 00:29:57.519
women, connect women so that we
can thrive in practice and in our personal
428
00:29:57.559 --> 00:30:00.599
lives. And it's been so to
an honor and beyond the board Um.
429
00:30:00.680 --> 00:30:04.079
For anyone who's interested in finding out
more, just go to Elsie Women Dot

Com or Elsie women dot com slash
joint to find out about joining. But
431
00:30:08.359 --> 00:30:15.359
it's a it's a wonderful opportunity to
get around like minded women that are driven,
432
00:30:15.640 --> 00:30:19.359
that are busy, that are doing
what you're doing and can either be
433
00:30:19.480 --> 00:30:23.920
a hand up or a helping hand
or just an arm to give you a
434
00:30:25.000 --> 00:30:26.240
hug when you need it and just
kind of say, yeah, I've been
435
00:30:26.279 --> 00:30:30.160
there, I know it's challenging,
but let's get through this together. And
436
00:30:30.599 --> 00:30:37.160
thankfully I've made some of the greatest
relationships of my life through the League of
437
00:30:37.200 --> 00:30:41.160
Chiropractic women by getting to know so
many of these amazing women. So there's
438
00:30:41.240 --> 00:30:44.319
lots of opportunities, you know,
with with one of our malpractice companies.
439
00:30:44.400 --> 00:30:48.680
Chirosecure, I get to host empowering
women and Chiropractic um one of the different
440
00:30:48.680 --> 00:30:52.799
boards that I sit on. I
get to do different Um weekly webinars where
441
00:30:52.839 --> 00:30:56.839
I get to bring on different speakers, sometimes men, sometimes women, but
442
00:30:56.440 --> 00:31:00.599
creating those opportunities for women is huge. When I started speaking, there were
443
00:31:00.640 --> 00:31:04.519
basically no women speaking on the platforms. It was Sharon Gorman, genie home
444
00:31:04.960 --> 00:31:08.960
and basically than Kathy winland just kind
of, you know, pushed the door
445
00:31:10.000 --> 00:31:12.680
open and got in there. But
when the League of Chiropractic women started,
446
00:31:12.839 --> 00:31:17.480
it was there was no such thing
as seeing women on platforms. And I
447
00:31:17.519 --> 00:31:21.400
went to the first event and recorded
all these different women that were just amazing
448
00:31:21.880 --> 00:31:25.640
and started reaching out to people like
Danny Knowles and saying hey, mile high
449
00:31:25.680 --> 00:31:27.920
has got a great event, here's
three women in your area that would be
450
00:31:27.920 --> 00:31:30.839
great speakers, and he was very
receptive to it. Him and his wife
451
00:31:30.920 --> 00:31:34.759
Rachelle, Paul Reid Cairo fest.
Hey Paul, here's some great women up
452
00:31:34.759 --> 00:31:40.640
in the Pacific northwest that would be
great for your stage and he was receptive
453
00:31:40.680 --> 00:31:44.759
to it. And little by little
the big events started putting women on their
454
00:31:44.799 --> 00:31:47.559
stages to the point where now,
like you know, when you go to
455
00:31:47.599 --> 00:31:49.400
cal gym, you're gonna see some
great women on that stage. You go
456
00:31:49.440 --> 00:31:52.319
to Chiro Fest, you go to
New Beginnings, you go to focus.
457
00:31:52.319 --> 00:31:56.279
Okay, see, you know,
like I could keep naming them mile high.
458
00:31:56.400 --> 00:32:00.839
They've all incorporated women onto their stages
and when and women in the audience
459
00:32:01.480 --> 00:32:07.039
see a woman on stage, they
resonate more because you understand me and I
460
00:32:07.119 --> 00:32:10.519
understand you and you understand where I'm
coming from and you were able to get
461
00:32:10.559 --> 00:32:14.640
to that level of success and if
you could do it, then perhaps I
462
00:32:14.640 --> 00:32:17.359
could do it. And so the
more we put women in those leadership positions
463
00:32:17.359 --> 00:32:22.960
and put women in those speaking positions, the more we empower the younger dots
464
00:32:23.079 --> 00:32:28.880
and the students and the prospective students
to look at this and go wow,
465
00:32:28.920 --> 00:32:32.920
I can do this. So to
to create those opportunities where women can come
466
00:32:32.920 --> 00:32:38.799
together is essential for the success of
women in our profession and to have successful
467
00:32:38.839 --> 00:32:45.160
women in our profession, I believe, is essential to chiropractic succeeding and reaching
468
00:32:45.200 --> 00:32:49.000
more people. I could not agree
more and that that was a beautiful and
469
00:32:49.119 --> 00:32:52.880
to a great conversation today. I
can't tell you how much. I appreciate

00:32:52.920 --> 00:32:57.720

want to thank Kira touch for their willingness
484
00:33:50.720 --> 00:33:54.119
to Um, look at the profession
and see that there is a need and
485
00:33:54.200 --> 00:34:00.960
that need is around leadership and helping
us grow healthy business. This is I
486
00:34:00.000 --> 00:34:02.920
mean, we're in the business of
saving lives and when business is good,
487
00:34:04.000 --> 00:34:07.920
everyone wins, and so I love
what you said about that. And I
488
