Why do smart business owners still sabotage their own financial growth? That question opens this conversation with Sean Healy, founder of Accounted4, who has spent years inside the finances of practice owners across the country. Sean’s answer is not about tactics or spreadsheets. It is about behavior, specifically a concept called mental accounting and why so many owners manage their books just well enough to file taxes and nothing more.

This episode is for physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech-language pathology, and mental health practice owners who feel like they are doing everything right financially and still do not feel in control of their numbers.

If this episode changed how you think about your own numbers, subscribe, share it with an owner who avoids looking at their P&L, and comment with your own profit target once you know it.
