Description

In this heartfelt conversation, Dr. Jodi sits down with Dr. Pam Jarboe—chiropractor, coach, and one of the profession's most authentic voices—to explore what it really means to create a joyful, sustainable practice.

Pam shares her journey from working as a CA in 1986 to building a thriving practice in Massachusetts, revealing how chiropractic transformed her own nervous system and unlocked her ability to learn and adapt. This isn't your typical "hustle harder" conversation—Pam gets real about navigating challenging seasons, including caring for her mother through hospice while maintaining her practice.

In this episode, you'll discover:

• How to hold space for patients in their most vulnerable moments
• The difference between selling an adjustment vs. selling lifetime wellness care
• Why joy in practice doesn't mean it's always easy—and why that's okay
• How to recognize when your practice is built for others' approval instead of your authentic self
• The "brownout" analogy that helps patients understand nervous system dysfunction
• Why teaching patients about the $30 billion pharmaceutical marketing machine matters
• How to create structure while honoring each patient's unique "grade level" of understanding

Pam brings wisdom from 40 years in the profession, sharing practical insights on everything from intake conversations to knowing when someone has "1000 tabs open" in their nervous system. She reminds us that we're teachers, helpers, and unsung heroes creating invisible ripple waves in our communities.
