The Opportunity Express: Why You’re Missing the Train (and How to Catch It)

What if the life and business you want are just one decision away - but you keep missing the train?


In this eye-opening episode, Dr. Sam unpacks one of the biggest puzzles in veterinary business coaching: why do so many practice owners stay stuck, even when a better way forward is staring them in the face?Using a unique metaphor, Sam maps out the six “stations” every practice owner travels through on their ownership adventure, and the mindset traps that stop people from reaching the destination of true integration: a practice that delivers great medicine, strong profits, and a fulfilling life outside work.

You’ll discover:

  • The 6 critical “stations” on the journey of practice ownership, and how to identify your current stop
  • The 5 mindset blocks that sabotage momentum, like control, guilt, and imposter syndrome
  • Why some vets, even the smart ones, delay decisions they know they need to make
  • How to shift from putting up with your situation to clear, confident, and in control

Ask yourself: What station are you at—and what’s stopping you from moving forward?Press play to find out how to get back on track.
