Episode 172 - When passion isn’t profitable
When passion isn’t profitable, you’ve got tough choices to make
Episode 172 dives straight into the brick wall many nurse practitioners hit when their "dream" clinic just won’t pay the bills. Johanna shares her reality check running an aesthetics and weight loss clinic that drains more money than it brings in. But here’s the hard truth: we show why doubling down on something just because you want it to succeed won’t make the numbers work.
We pull apart what’s actually working for Johanna (her profitable VA exams) and lay out the blueprint for scaling what pays, not what drains you. You’ll hear plain advice on letting go, cutting unnecessary expense, and leaning hard into objective business decisions.
If you’re trying to force a business to succeed while ignoring where your real money is coming from, you’ll want to hear this. Stop working harder for less. Get the clarity and action steps you need to make your next move profitable.
