In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Kimbra (@dr.kimbra.runyan) to talk about what happens when clinicians realize the traditional model isn’t sustainable and decide to build something better.
We dive into the realities of burnout in high-volume care settings, the pressure to produce over truly serve, and the moment she knew there had to be another way. Dr. Kimbra shares how she transitioned from operating inside a system that left her drained to creating a practice model rooted in intention, outcomes, and long-term patient relationships.
We also unpack the mindset shifts required to step outside the “mill” mentality, build confidence in your clinical voice, and design a career that aligns with both your values and your life. From evidence-based care to entrepreneurship, motherhood, and redefining success, this conversation is equal parts honest and empowering.
If you’ve ever questioned whether the way things are done is the way they have to be done, this episode will challenge you to think bigger.
