Balancing Business, Parenthood, and Purpose: What Truly Matters in the Long Run

Welcome to The K9PT Academy podcast, the only podcast in veterinary rehabilitation & physical therapy that focuses on helping business owners and entrepreneurs build and scale a profitable and successful canine rehabilitation business! 

This week I made a huge announcement on my personal social media that I also shared with our Canine Rehabpreneur community that my wife and I will be having twins! As you can imagine, this incredible (and a bit terrifying) life-changing event has led towards a lot of reflection and planning for what lies ahead, and for this week's episode I wanted to share some of those thought with you. Listen to the full episode as we discuss:

- We often dwell on things we “should’ve” done earlier, but the truth is: we’ll never be younger than we are today—so start now.

 

- Wishing and waiting doesn’t create results—action in the present does.

 

- The decisions we make today shape our future more than regrets from the past ever will—what matters is what we do now.

 

- True success isn’t just about caseload or revenue—it’s about building a life and business aligned with your personal values.

 

- Happiness is already a form of success, as echoed by Carlos Alcaraz’s quote: “I’d choose happiness over massive success.”

 

- You can build a business that evolves with your life—what worked in your 30s may not work in your 40s.

 

- Time is fleeting—especially with family. Make conscious decisions about how you want to spend it.

 

- Working more hours or grinding harder isn't always the answer; instead, find balance and redefine what success means for you now.

 

- The “right” time is a myth—the best time is the one where you choose to move forward, even if imperfectly.

 

- Every phase of life and business brings new priorities—make sure your business supports, not competes with, your personal goals.
