Admin time is one of the most misunderstood parts of running a private practice.

In this episode, I walk through what admin time is actually for — and why it shouldn’t be used to catch up on notes, inbox messages, or other unpaid clinical work.

This is the same framework I use with my 1:1 coaching clients when we’re building out their clinic schedules. We’re not just deciding how many patients they’ll see — we’re deciding how they’ll lead their practice.

I share how I intentionally create and protect admin time, how I structure my own admin day, and what should happen during that time to keep a practice running proactively instead of reactively.

If your practice feels heavy, chaotic, or constantly behind, this episode will help you rethink how admin time fits into your schedule.

If you’re interested in working with me one-on-one as you build or refine your private practice, I'd love to work with you!

Admin time isn’t a luxury. It’s a leadership tool.
