This week on the Uncharted Podcast, Dr. Andy Roark and practice manager Stephanie Goss jump back into the mailbag to make history. That's right, we got a topic we loved so much this week that we are splitting this episode into two! This week, we will dive into the headspace of the challenge facing our repeat mailbag writer who was previously feeling squashed and stubborn. They are still at it and just as stubborn as ever, only this time, they are struggling with not letting client frustration over scheduling woes get them down. They are booked pretty far in advance and doing all the things they can to manage the schedule and clients are still really frustrated. They are voicing it to the team and it is starting to crop up in online reviews and this doctor is asking for help in getting into a good headspace and not letting it get them or the team down. And also looking for help on how to communicate to clients that they have to wait and why it's okay to wait in some cases, without clients feeling brushed off. This was a super fun challenge of an episode - don't forget to stay tuned next week for part two - the action steps! Let's get into this...
