Hiring doesn’t have to be scary — it just has to be smart. In this jam-packed (and slightly ranty) episode, Danielle and Kyle break down everything you need to know about hiring your first admin, finding a second provider, and building a team that actually helps you grow (instead of giving you gray hairs). They’re sharing their real-life mistakes, lessons learned, and the systems that turned their clinics into scalable, freedom-giving businesses. From knowing when you’re ready to hire to structuring your onboarding and avoiding desperate “warm body” hires, this episode is your ultimate hiring playbook. You’ll learn: 🔥 The mindset shift that makes hiring feel freeing instead of terrifying 💡 When to hire an admin vs. when to hire another provider 📈 How to calculate your “buy back your time” rate (and why it’s a game changer) 🧠 The exact onboarding plan they use (30-60-90 days to success!) 🚫 Red flags that scream “Don’t hire this person!” 💬 The interview questions that reveal who’s really a fit ⚡ Why culture, clarity, and communication matter more than credentials 💪 The biggest hiring mistakes they made (so you don’t have to!) If you’re ready to go from overworked operator to confident CEO, this episode will light a fire under your hiring strategy — and probably make you laugh along the way. Listen now and learn how to hire with clarity, confidence, and a little bit of badass energy. p.s. we squeezed 2 parts into 1, sorry not sorry it's over an hour.
