Funny how your definition of success changes, isn't it? 😂

At 27, I had a business that looked successful on paper.

But I was starting to question what the bloody point was if I didn't have time to enjoy the life I was working so hard for.

These days, success looks a little different to me.

Time to travel. Read a book. Walk the dogs in the middle of the day. Have coffee without mentally running through a to-do list.

I still love business. I still love the numbers. And I still love a good challenge.

But I've learnt that being successful and actually enjoying your life aren't automatically the same thing.

And I'd quite like both, thanks. 😂🐶

Anyone else finding that their idea of success looks very different these days?

5 Things I’m NOT Doing This December:

🚫 Booking out my calendar “just in case someone wants help”

🚫 Pretending I can do deep work between Dec 20–Jan 2

🚫 Answering DMs that start with “quick question” at 10pm

🚫 Building someone else’s vision while mine collects dust

🚫 Earning rest like it’s some kind of prize

Look, protecting your peace in December doesn’t happen by accident. If you want to actually sign off without the January cash-flow panic or the holiday ghost town dread, you need a plan before the chaos hits.

Let's get it sorted in 90 minutes flat.

Join me for the Prepare for The Holidays live sprint on 4 November 2026 (7 PM – 8:30 PM AEDT) for only $220!

We’re mapping out your client connection plan, locking down your schedule, and bulletproofing your ledger so you can actually enjoy your break.

Okay, I hate to call you out like this but… 😂

If the practice is busy, referrals are coming in and revenue is growing but you're still checking the bank account wondering whether everything is okay - more referrals may not be the answer.

I'd be looking at the money you're already making first.

There is more wastage happening in your practice than you realise!

Be honest: have you ever looked at a very busy practice and wondered where the bloody money went? 👀

“Tash, it's OCTOBER. Why are we talking about January already?”

Because I've been doing this for 20 years, and the December–January period doesn't exactly sneak up on us. 😂

Every year, I start having these conversations with practice owners in October.
But this year? There's even more to think about.

Workforce costs are changing. Payment costs are shifting. There's a whole lot happening around clinical governance and conflicts of interest.

And practice profit margins were already thin.

So when I look at a practice preparing for the holidays, I'm not immediately asking how we can squeeze in more appointments.

I'm looking for wastage.

Clients who aren't attending the care they've agreed to.

Appointments that keep getting rescheduled.

Cancellation policies that might be creating more friction than they're solving.

And whether the team is actually having conversations with clients NOW about their plans for December and January.

Because the goal isn't to keep people attending appointments they don't clinically need.

It's to make sure that when care IS appropriate, your practice has the systems and conversations in place to support it.

That's good for clients. And it's good for business.

And with all the financial changes happening, I think it's more important than ever to understand where your money is going.

Not just how much is coming in.

And before you tell me you don't have time to prepare for December…

I've already done some of the work for you. 😂

Inside my Private Practice Template Suite, you'll find ready-to-customise holiday templates to help you prepare BEFORE the end-of-year chaos begins.

I had the business.

I was making money.

I had a team.

From the outside, it looked like I’d done the thing. 🎉

And people were very happy to tell me I should feel successful.

Except… I didn’t.

Because somewhere along the way I realised their version of success and mine were two very different things.

For me, success looked like freedom. Travelling. Learning. Exploring.

That experience changed a lot about how I work with practice owners now.
I’m not here to tell you that you should grow.

Or that you should build a bigger team. Because I loathe the word “Should”

Or that hitting some arbitrary revenue number means you’ve officially “made it.”
I’d much rather ask:

What are you actually trying to build? Why are you chasing a “baseline” when that might not work for you!

If the business looks successful to everyone else but gives you a life you don’t actually want…

What exactly are we celebrating? 👀

Is anyone checking on allied health practice owners right now?! 😂

Because apparently, we're doing ALL the things at once.

Fair Work changes affecting minimum wages and classifications.

Changes to card surcharges, which means another look at your payment costs and pricing.

Ahpra's conflict-of-interest guidance raising questions about how you're incentivising your team.

Proposed changes to non-compete clauses.

And just when you thought you could sit down for five bloody minutes…

HELLO, CHRISTMAS / END OF YEAR SHUT DOWN 🎄

Annual leave. Public holidays. Cancellations. Payroll. And the January slowdown you know is coming.

Seriously. Who's your business therapist?! 😂 [Cause, if it’s not me….why not??!]

Now, I'm not saying these changes shouldn't happen. Equitable pay and protecting clients matter.

But I AM asking:

Who's helping YOU work out what all of this means for the money in YOUR business?

Because you can't make financial decisions based on how your bank balance makes you feel on a Tuesday.

As a client of mine, I'd encourage you to be looking at what your practice costs to run, what expenses are changing, what money is already committed and what your cash flow looks like over the next few months — starting NOW.

Not just Oct, Nov and December.

January and February too.

This is exactly why I created 90 Days to Profitability.

Because making money is one thing.

Understanding how much of it actually stays in the business? That's another conversation.

Want to know when 90 Days to Profitability opens?

Comment PROFIT and I'll send you the details. 👀

There were absolutely points in my career where I thought becoming a psychologist might make things easier. [Even started to study it in my undergrad!]

I knew if I became a clinician, I could step in and do billables.

And, honestly - maybe clinicians would take me seriously.

At one point I even thought, if I were a psychiatrist, I could sit at medical board tables and have those conversations.

But that wasn't the path I ended up taking.

Instead, I built alliances with people who believed in what I believed in.
And I could hyper focus in my genius zone. 😂

Legislation.

Ethics.

Regulations.

Like alice in wonderland, I love the rabbit hole.

Because if I want to compete in this space for for another 20 years, I need to know about all of the things you don’t have time to figure out as you’re too busy managing your practice.

I'm not a clinician. I own that.

I'm the strategist sitting beside you asking different questions, looking at the business around the clinical work, and doing the homework before I open my mouth.

Proudly different lane. Same table.
