Your energy isn’t a luxury—it’s the fuel behind every decision, patient interaction, and culture cue in your practice. In this solo episode, you’ll learn how to audit your energy, build micro‑reset recovery rituals, and protect high‑energy blocks so you can lead sustainably. We break down the four dimensions of energy—physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual—and translate them into practical frameworks for team culture, scheduling, sleep, and movement. You’ll also hear when to delegate chronic drainers like HR and insurance, and how small calendar shifts can transform outcomes.
