From clinician to course creator

Episode 401

Wednesday, September 24, 2025 • Duration 45:51

Ready to turn your superpower into a paycheck? Imagine the results when your best skills meet the right patients.

Welcome back to the Uncaged Clinician! I’m your host, David Bayliff, and today I’m joined by my good friend, Dr. Scott Dixon from Jacksonville, Florida. Scott’s not just a clinician, he’s the founder of Athletic Dry Needling and Spinal Manipulation, and he’s built an educational business that’s making waves across the country. But don’t worry, before we dive deep, we kick things off with some fun banter about hairstyles, tequila, and a whole lot of laughs.

In this episode, we’ll cover the following topics with you:

Why Scott chose to specialize in dry needling
How patient outcomes shaped his career path
The identity shift of moving from clinician to educator
Delegating tasks and raising leaders in business
How to choose the right dry needling course
The exciting future of Athletic Dry Needling, including online education

At the end of the day, the big takeaway is this: success in business and clinical practice comes from knowing yourself, leaning into your strengths, and empowering others along the way. Scott’s story is a reminder that passion and humility can carry you a long way and that sometimes, going “all in” is the best decision you’ll ever make.

You can’t build trust by cutting corners with Jake Thompson

Episode 400

Wednesday, September 17, 2025 • Duration 30:02

Have you ever caught yourself cutting corners, even when you knew it might hold you back in the long run?

What would your life look like if your actions perfectly aligned with your values?

Welcome back to the Uncaged Clinician Podcast! I’m your host, David Bayliff, and today’s episode is extra special, it’s our 400th episode. To celebrate, I brought back a good friend of the show, Jake Thompson, the CEO and founder of Compete Every Day. If you don’t know Jake yet, you’re in for a treat. He’s gone from selling t-shirts out of his car to becoming a sought-after keynote speaker, author, and performance coach who helps people stay accountable and live out their values.

In this episode, I’ll cover the following topics with you:

Jake’s journey from selling t-shirts to building Compete Every Day
The dangers of cutting corners and how accountability builds character
Why enjoying the process matters more than obsessing over the outcome
The “values-action gap” and how to close it
Overcoming ego, imposter syndrome, and unhealthy comparison
Lessons from Jake’s upcoming books and how they apply to your life

At the end of the day, this episode is about clarity, accountability, and growth. Jake reminds us that entrepreneurship and, honestly, life itself is the greatest self-development project we’ll ever take on. The biggest takeaway? Get super clear on your values, align your actions with them, and stop comparing your path to someone else’s.

Uncaged Hack: "Entrepreneurship is the greatest self-development project you'll ever take on because you are the limitation in your business."

From Burnout to Breakthrough

Episode 399

Wednesday, September 10, 2025 • Duration 41:27

Have you ever felt like you’re giving everything to your career but losing yourself in the process?

What if the key to real growth wasn’t a giant leap, but one small step at a time?

Welcome back to the Uncaged Clinician Podcast! I’m your host, David Bayliff, talking with PT Troy Goetsch (Lincoln, NE) about stepping off the “busy” treadmill, the family moments that sparked a reset, and how he’s building a practice that fits his life without pretending he has it all figured out. If you’re stuck between exhaustion and your next step, this one’s for you.

In this episode, I’ll cover the following topics with you:

How Troy recognized he was chasing “moving goalposts”
The family conversation that shifted everything
Why understanding your “why” changes the game
Overcoming fear and imposter syndrome
The importance of accountability and guidance
Why imperfect action beats waiting for the “perfect” moment

At the end of the day, Troy’s story is a reminder that you don’t have to sacrifice your well-being for success. Growth comes from knowing yourself, investing in yourself, and taking action even if it’s imperfect. If you’ve been on the fence about making a change in your career or life, this episode is the nudge you’ve been waiting for.

Uncaged Hack: “Imperfect action beats perfect inaction.”
—Troy Goetsch

What social media won’t tell you about success

Episode 398

Wednesday, September 3, 2025 • Duration 23:25

Have you ever looked at someone’s “overnight success” and thought, Man...how did they do that so fast? What if I told you that those “overnight” wins are really years in the making?

Welcome back to the Uncaged Clinician Podcast with me, David Bayliff! I can hardly believe we’re closing in on our 400th episode, seven years of conversations, growth, and showing up with you each week. That’s a milestone I couldn’t have imagined when this all started. Today, I’m diving into a topic that hits home for every entrepreneur and clinician out there: the myth of overnight success.

We live in a world that glorifies speed. Social media makes it look like people just “blow up” overnight. But the truth? Every breakthrough moment usually sits on the foundation of years of sweat, sacrifice, and persistence. I’ve lived this myself, late nights, early mornings, countless “no’s” before the “yes.”

Here’s what we’ll dive into in this episode:

Why “overnight success” is one of the biggest lies we tell ourselves
The role of consistency, resilience, and imperfect action in achieving results
How to embrace the long game of entrepreneurship
Why small wins matter more than you think
The discipline and patience required to truly succeed

Here’s the big takeaway: success isn’t a destination, it’s a journey. Every late night, every sacrifice, every step forward (even the messy ones) are all part of the story. If you can embrace consistency and stay patient, you’ll look back one day and realize your “overnight success” was years in the making. Thanks for hanging out with me today, and as always, go out there and make it a great day!

Uncaged Hack: "Overnight success, it's a myth. It's really nights and nights and nights and days and days and days of planning, of failing, of being told no."
—David Bayliff

Your Message Might Be Missing the Mark

Episode 397

Wednesday, August 27, 2025 • Duration 18:58

Have you ever felt like your business message isn’t connecting the way it should?

Or maybe you’re realizing that what you started offering isn’t exactly what your clients really want anymore?

Welcome back to the Uncaged Clinician Podcast! I’m your host, Kevin DeGroot, and today I’m diving into something every business owner faces at some point brand evolution. As a physical therapist and business coach, I’ve learned firsthand how important it is to keep your brand alive, clear, and aligned with both your growth and your clients’ needs. And trust me, when you resist evolving, you risk becoming irrelevant in a world that’s always moving forward.

Here’s what we’ll dive into in this episode:

Why communication is the foundation of brand success
How clarity (or lack of it) can make or break your business
Elevating your services and knowing when it’s time to shift
The art of standing out in a crowded marketplace
Why listening to your clients can fuel your growth
What Uncaged Clinician University is and why it matters for the future of therapy entrepreneurs

So, here’s the thing I really want you to remember: your brand isn’t supposed to stay the same forever. Just like you, it’s meant to grow, shift, and take on new life as your business evolves. When you embrace that growth instead of fighting it, you’ll naturally connect with the right people, stand out in your space, and build something that feels authentic, exciting, and built to last.

Uncaged Hack: "We don't need more gurus. We need more education and true competence as business owners."
—Kevin DeGroot

The Hidden Cost of Comparison

Episode 396

Wednesday, August 20, 2025 • Duration 27:21

Do you find yourself constantly comparing your journey to others and feeling like you’re falling short?

What if the antidote to comparison isn’t ignoring it, but shifting toward contrast and embracing your individuality?

Welcome back to the Uncaged Clinician Podcast! I’m your host, Kevin DeGroot, and today I’m joined by my amazing wife, Hannah DeGroot. Together, we’re tackling a topic that hits close to home for just about everyone. Whether it’s in business, personal growth, or even our relationships, comparison can sneak in and rob us of joy. But here’s the good news: we’ve discovered a healthier way to approach it through contrast. And that shift changes everything.

In this episode, we’ll cover the following topics with you:

The sneaky ways comparison shows up in our daily lives
How gratitude can sometimes turn into another form of comparison
Why self-compassion and acceptance are crucial for growth
The role of opportunity costs and boundaries in protecting joy
The difference between unhealthy comparison and healthy contrast
The power of community and surrounding yourself with supportive voices
How to run your race with authenticity and clarity

At the end of the day, you don’t win by becoming a better copy of someone else; you win by becoming the fullest, most authentic version of yourself. The world doesn’t just need more businesses; it needs more people showing up with courage and individuality. So, stop playing the comparison game and start embracing contrast. Watch how it transforms not just your business, but your life.

Uncaged Hack: “The world needs you to actually show up in the best version of yourself.”
—Hannah DeGroot

From Fear to Freedom: Dan Fogarty’s PT Journey

Episode 395

Wednesday, August 13, 2025 • Duration 49:35

Ever wondered what it takes to grow your clinic from scratch and sell it for top value?

How do you protect your clinic’s legacy while stepping into your next chapter?

Hey there, Uncaged Clinicians! David Bayliff here, and today we’re diving into a story that’s equal parts inspiring, strategic, and downright real. I’m joined by my good friend, fellow Shenandoah University alum, and physical therapy powerhouse, Dan Fogarty. With over three decades of PT experience and five thriving clinics to his name, Dan has been through it all, from the nerves of opening his first practice to the complex (and emotional) process of selling his empire. If you’ve ever dreamed of owning your clinic or wondered how to exit gracefully, this one’s for you.

In this episode, I’ll cover the following topics with you:

Why relationships, not marketing alone, are your clinic’s greatest growth tool
The role of “healthy fear” in long-term success
How to prepare your business for a future sale (even if it’s years away)
The emotional side of selling and choosing the right buyer
Financial and operational tips to make your clinic attractive to investors

Dan’s journey is proof that building a thriving clinic isn’t just about numbers; it’s about people, purpose, and planning. Whether you’re just starting or thinking about your next move, remember: fear can be a motivator, relationships are everything, and your exit strategy should start on day one.

Uncaged Hack: “The key to building a business is to have relationships.”
—Dan Fogarty

Conquering Imposter Syndrome

Episode 394

Wednesday, August 6, 2025 • Duration 24:23

Feeling like a fraud, even when you're qualified?

Ever downplayed your talents because they came too naturally?

Welcome back to Uncaged Clinician! I’m your host, David Bayliff, and today, we're diving into something I know you've either felt yourself or seen in others: imposter syndrome. I've been there questioning my worth, second-guessing my gifts, and feeling like I didn’t deserve my seat at the table. So, I decided to talk about it openly, honestly, and from the heart.

You see, imposter syndrome doesn’t only visit new grads or fresh practitioners. It creeps in when we undervalue what comes naturally to us… when we confuse ease with insignificance.

In this episode, I’ll cover the following topics with you:

Why imposter syndrome hits even the most “qualified”
How limiting beliefs take root (and how to call them out)
The danger of coveting other people’s gifts
What your audience actually cares about
A simple mantra to carry you through moments of doubt

So, here’s the truth bomb for the day: You are enough. You are good at what you do. You help people. And yes, you’re doing what you’re called to do.

It’s time to stop hiding behind the imposter and show up as the real you.

Let’s stop underestimating the power of our gifts and start owning the difference we’re here to make.

Uncaged Hack: “You are good at what you do. You do help people. I am doing what I'm called to do.”
—David Bayliff

Does Your Business Have a Voice?

Episode 393

Wednesday, July 30, 2025 • Duration 20:51

Ever wonder why some practices stand out effortlessly while others get lost in the noise?

What’s the one thing that truly attracts your ideal clients before you even speak to them?

Hey hey! David Bayliff here, and welcome back to The Uncaged Clinician Podcast. Whether you're driving, walking the dog, or just chillin’ with your coffee, I'm grateful you're letting me hang out with you in this episode. Since 2018, some of y’all have been rockin’ with us from day one, and I seriously appreciate it.

Now, let’s talk about something powerful but often overlooked: your business voice. Not just your logo or your fonts. I'm talking about the soul of your practice. Whether you’re just starting or a seasoned clinician, your business voice tells the world who you are, and more importantly, why you matter.

In this episode, I’ll cover the following topics with you:

What it means for your business to have a voice
How core values shape your message and attract the right people
The difference between marketing and messaging—and why both matter
How perception, energy, and relationships drive growth and trust
What makes Uncaged Clinician’s brand voice so memorable and relatable

Everything you do speaks, even when you’re not talking. The energy you put out, your messaging, your materials, your values. They all build the perception of your brand. And that perception? That’s what people remember, refer to, and rave about.

Take the time to build a voice that aligns with your purpose, energizes your community, and inspires action. When you do, trust me, people won’t just hear you. They’ll feel you. Now go out there and make your voice count!

Hey UNCAGED CLINICIANS, Kevin DeGroot here. Welcome back. If you’re in your first year of business or part of our Launchpad program, this one’s for you.

Today, we’re talking about the early mistakes many healthcare providers make like locking into long leases, overbuying equipment, or undercharging. I’ll break down how to avoid those traps and set up your business for real growth and stability.

In this episode, I’ll cover the following topics with you:

Why defensive strategies are your best protection in the early stages
Common financial and operational mistakes clinicians make
How to avoid wasting time and money on the wrong things

Coaching isn’t just about pushing forward; it’s also about helping you avoid the wrong turns. Let’s walk through this together.

Uncaged Hack: “One of the biggest mistakes I see is people signing massive commercial leases before they even know what they need.”
