Do any of these sound like you? 🤔
You're a PT, OT, SLP, healthcare provider OR in school to join this field
You're curious as to what working for yourself can do for your life, family, career, and happiness
You know you’re destined for more than just being a cog in the machine at a mill
You may have started your practice or business already and spent countless hour trying to figure out marketing and sales & all you hear are crickets
You want to be your own boss with the freedom and flexibility to travel, to be present with your family, or to make extra income, but you have no idea how to get started and fear you don’t have what it takes
You're overwhelmed, stuck, worried, going in circles, looking for direction and feel like you need accountability & support
You're in the right place. 👋 This is for you.
Since I started my own practice, I've gotten to know so many other therapy entrepreneurs doing really amazing things both locally and online. I see so many other healthcare providers with the passion and potential to grow their own businesses, but they get stuck & feel fearful to move forward because:
⏳ They're already working full time (and sometimes PRN too) and feel like they don't have enough time to start their own thing or watch hours & hours of video trainings when they still have to get their con ed finished too
😱 They feel like they're drowning in information overload and they don't know where to start
🎓 They feel like they aren't qualified to stand on their own and independently run a business (even with a degree, license, and clinical experience)
💵 They're afraid to invest too much upfront in their business, whether it's equipment, software, or coaching (which often translates to they just want to prove to themselves that they can commit and really do it first!)

Meet your coaches 😄
Coach Morgan
Dr. Morgan Meese, PT, is a physical therapist, cash-based private practice owner, and business coach for other rehab therapists seeking more.
When Morgan started her very first big-girl job in healthcare, she was over-the-moon excited to start seeing her very own patients. She had always been into health & fitness, and she LOVED the fact that she could use exercise to help people heal from pain. She couldn't wait.
As the months continued, the more Morgan saw that the emphasis in her clinic wasn't patient outcomes or about the individuals walking through their doors; it was about getting as many patients on caseload in order to bill as much as possible.
Morgan felt like she was giving it her all, but it was taking everything from her. She was constantly exhausted, stressed, and she slowly started to feel her passion for health & wellness fall away. She felt lost.
So Morgan did something about it.
She started her own cash-based solo practice.
Morgan started working out of a Crossfit gym seeing patients 1:1, and her passion started to come back. In the spring of 2020, she began working with clients online via telehealth, added online strength coaching, and now sees clients in her garage gym.
Morgan realized there are so many ways that she can help people as a therapist. That's what she wants for others too.
Pairing her own experience with her clinical knowledge, Morgan decided to start DPT to CEO for other ambitious therapists just like her so that healthcare providers everywhere would have one source for actionable strategies that they could implement themselves, without burning a hole in their pocket, and still get all the support they need along their journey.

Coach Karen
Meet Dr. Karen Tanso, a Doctor of Physical Therapy, Board-Certified Pediatric Clinical Specialist, and passionate entrepreneur. Karen graduated from Simmons College in 2014 with her Doctor of Physical Therapy degree. From the start of her career, she has specialized in pediatrics, working in a variety of outpatient clinics and schools in the Boston area before starting her own private practice, Inchstones PT, LLC in 2022.
Driven by a lifelong dream of owning her own business, Karen initially faced the challenge of navigating the complexities of entrepreneurship. Her journey took a pivotal turn in early 2023 when she discovered the DPT to CEO program, where she quickly uncovered her passion for business strategy, marketing, and content creation. This newfound passion led her to help other local therapists and small business owners with targeted marketing and advertising, sharing her knowledge and helping them grow their businesses successfully.
Although she continues to grow Inchstones PT and enjoys treating patients, Karen has expanded her role as a business coach and marketing consultant. By combining her hands-on experience as a pediatric therapist with her business and marketing expertise, Karen offers a unique, holistic approach to coaching.
Through the DPT to CEO program, she hopes to help students be successful and confident in their marketing and social media content to help grow their practices.
Coach Taylor
Meet Dr. Taylor Kirk, a doctor of physical therapy, pelvic health marketing consultant, and business owner. Taylor graduated from Texas Woman’s University in Dallas, TX with her doctor of physical therapy degree and returned to her hometown of Emporia, KS, where she practiced as a physical therapist for 3 years.
During her time in clinical practice, Taylor began to see the challenges of corporate healthcare that are faced by both patients and providers. It was at this time Taylor knew she wanted something more from her career and her profession.
Although Taylor is a physical therapist by trade, the confines of a non-compete, not uncommon in the corporate healthcare setting, prevented her from starting her own practice. To fill the void and stay connected to the industry of physical therapy, Taylor dove into all things business and marketing, developing skills valuable for growing any business. It was then she realized her skills as a physical therapist were not limited to treating patients, but that she could do so much more.
With Taylor’s hopes of staying connected to physical therapy, specifically her passion for pelvic health, she decided to start her own pelvic health marketing business - The Pelvic Marketer. During her time as a business owner, she has helped other practice owners grow their businesses through targeted digital marketing strategies, providing individualized services to each one of her clients.
As a business coach, Taylor’s experiences as a physical therapist, successful business owner, and marketing consultant allow her to bring a unique perspective to students within the DPT to CEO program. She is able to assist them in all things business and marketing to ensure their success during their entrepreneurial journey.
At the end of the day, Taylor is committed to empowering DPT to CEO students with the skills they need to start, launch, and grow a successful practice.
