In this episode, Cathy Love is joined by Nacre’s Business Manager, Layland Webb, for a grounded and practical conversation on how Allied Health Business Owners can plan beyond the panic. With rising costs, shifting markets, and mounting pressure on Directors, it’s time to reframe business planning as a strategic opportunity—rather than just survival mode. Cathy and Layland unpack how to review your business model, think creatively about revenue streams, and build agile plans that reflect the real world. They share how to avoid reactionary decisions, and instead shape strategies around sustainable, scalable service delivery. If you’re feeling stuck or simply want to broaden your business thinking, this episode will help you reset, reframe, and replan with confidence. Key topics covered: Business Planning That Reflects Reality: Moving beyond idealism and designing plans that withstand uncertainty Revenue Diversification: Rethinking service delivery models, funding sources, and pricing Contingency Planning: Building in buffers, flexibility, and options when the unexpected hits Stepping Into Director Thinking: Staying calm, curious, and clear-eyed in your decision-making P.S.
