What if you could hire with confidence, integrate with ease, and finally step back without fear?
Hiring an associate should be one of the most exciting decisions of your career. More freedom. More capacity. A path toward the practice — and the life — you've been building toward.
Most associate hires fail before day one.
Not because chiropractors make bad hiring decisions. But because they make rushed ones — out of exhaustion, a packed schedule, or a life crisis that couldn't wait. They skip the math. They skip the conversation. And six months later, they're resentful, their associate is confused, and their patients are leaving quietly without a word.
This isn't theory. This is the real-world playbook.
Learn how to...
Hire with Intention
Before you post a single job listing, you need clarity on the one question most owners never ask themselves: Why am I really doing this?
Create the Transferable Patient Experience
The moment you step back from patient care, your patients don't need to feel the difference. That's not wishful thinking — it's a system.
Train and Integrate Without Micromanaging
You've hired the right person. Now what? The most well-intentioned associate hires derail in the training phase — either because there are no documented systems to follow, or because the owner can't let go.
In this 3-module course, Dr. Jen walks you through the exact framework she's used in nearly 30 years of practice — and with hundreds of chiropractic clients — to hire, integrate, and retain an associate who actually moves your practice forward.
