    Jan 5 2024

    Doctors, have you sold a practice in the past? Will you need to sell in the future?
    Personal Injury, Dr. Lori Bents, of Marshfield, Wisconsin, has in the past and will do again in a few years. This important interview will showcase both past and future.
    See and hear what went well and what didn't go so well in her prior sale of her practice in Newport News, VA and her plans moving forward in a few years to again sell.

    1. Establish your baseline,
    2. Benchmark against your peers
    3. Provide key areas of focus that you can use for growth to maximize your value BEFORE you transition.
    4. A proactive value to let you see where you stand not just where you think you stand.

  • Don Connelly Brings it on! Wealth Perspectives for Doctors - compiled from 56 years of experience!
    Oct 24 2023

    "Perspective is the glue that holds investment behavior together."
    (Kevin Sullivan)

    My guest Don Connelly is no stranger to wealth advisors all over the world with his 56 years of experience as and advisor, manager, spokesman for one of the largest money managers in the world, and coach, providing insights that are unparalleled in the industry. At age 77, he is still going strong.

    He interviews top advisors from all over the world and provides insights that he finds from those elite professionals. Advisors that have $7 billion of assets under management with minimum account sizes of $10 million, is just one example.

    He's been an inspiration to me in my 34 year career and for decades, I have followed Don, and seen him at many conferences. So since the advisor community knows who he is, I thought you as a doctor should know who he is also!

    He has spoken all over the world to almost every investment firm, great and small. He travels throughout the US providing timely insights for advisors to use with their clients. I know what he has to say to us, and wanted him to share some comments directly to you also!

    It's impossible for you to ever look at building and maintaining wealth the same way once you hear his simple analogies that will totally change your outlook.

    If you take what he says to heart, there is no doubt your financial goals will benefit from it.

  • FINDING HOPE AMIDST BURNOUT: Renewed Purpose with guest Dr. Krishna Bhatta
    Sep 18 2023
    • Doctors, are you heading for burnout?
    • Are you already there?
    • Do you recognize the stages that lead you to burnout?
    • Are you looking for HOPE?

    This is why this podcast episode was recorded...to provide HOPE, as we interview Dr. Krishna Bhatta, MD, Chief of Urology at the Eastern Maine Medical Center in Bangor, ME. His wife and children are also doctors, so he has a lot to weigh in on.

    • Why is it that some doctors are bunt out and other doctors are not?
    • What traits do doctors carry that keep them away from being burnt out?
    • Could those traits be useful to the physicians that are experiencing burn out?


    With over 50% of doctors (and percentages even greater than that per specialty) feeling burnt out and with that rate rising every year, we wanted to focus in on the traits that the "non-burnt out" doctors have....that keep them healthy and vibrant.

    These traits could be useful to those who are burnt out.
    This podcast episode is one to examine.

    There are many causes for burn out, however, this episode focuses on solutions of hope, balance, restoration, and a renewed purpose!

    We encourage you to take a time of reflection. It's the most important action you could do.
    Then, the picture can be clearer with every step you take.

    Please like, share, and subscribe to this podcast. It's wealth medicine for doctors!

  • WHAT IS YOUR MEDICAL PRACTICE REALLY WORTH? Michael Simms, CEO of Veracity Advisors weighs in....
    Jul 3 2023

    Doctors - When was the last time you stopped to think about what your practice is worth?
    1. Do you know the value of your practice? Do you have a baseline?

    We often think about having a business valuation completed for a transition to someone else or a hospital, but do you know that you can also use a business valuation to guide you for the growth of your practice and the "health" of your practice?
    Use your business valuation as a guide for growth!

    2. Do you know the key performance indicators (KPI) that would guide you to a healthier practice?

    3. Do you want to maximize your value?

    4. Are you too involved in your practice, where you need to start being the CEO and allow for others to come along-side you so you can eventually step away?

    Many doctors have very high "good will" with their patients, and when they go to sell their practices, if they're the ONLY face of their practice, the value is not going to be what they think it is. Starting early working to systemize your practice and working through the KPIs needed will help enhance your value and the value of your practice.

    Kevin Sullivan, Wealth Advisor and podcast host, speaks with Michael Simms, CEO of Veracity Advisors who is also known as the "valuation guy" as he shares some essential points you won't want to miss.
