100 | Acupuncture, Advocacy, and Investing: Redefining Success with Dr. Nell Smircina

🎉 Welcome to Episode #100! 

Today I'm speaking with Dr. Nell Smircina, who wears many hats—acupuncturist, entrepreneur, advocate, and investor. In this conversation, she shares how her journey through private practice, getting an MBA, and national leadership roles shaped the way she approaches success in integrative healthcare. 

Whether you're just starting out or thinking about the long-term vision for your practice, this episode will encourage you to think bigger and more strategically about what’s possible. 

In this episode, we talk about: 

• Nell’s evolution from private practice to business school and beyond
• How she’s approaching Entrepreneurship through Acquisition (ETA) in integrative health
• The importance of advocacy and representation in the acupuncture profession
• Redefining success as an acupuncturist and business owner
