The P.t. Entrepreneur Podcast

Ever feel like you're grinding away, maybe even getting burnt out in the traditional PT model or that high volume clinic? Thinking about making the leap to your own cash practice, maybe starting it as a side hustle, but not sure how to make it work or when to go all in? Well, you gotta listen to this episode. I sat down with one of our awesome Mastermind members, Ziad Dahdul from Ignite Phyzio and Sports Performance out in Orange County. This dude is the real deal: sharp clinician, super high emotional intelligence, and he's navigated that exact journey. We dive deep into his story, from starting as a side hustle while working per diem home health (and knowing when that safety net becomes a trap!), to building a thriving practice focused on a killer niche: ACL rehab for busy working professionals. Plus, we get into the weeds on building relationships that actually drive referrals and why genuinely giving a damn about people is maybe the best business strategy there is.
