Ep651 💯 Paul’s Highlights: Why You’re Not “Booked Solid”

In this episode, I’m diving into the best moments from the last seven days—straight from my social media, now here for you in audio form.


And I’ll be honest with you…


If you’re still wondering why you’re not “booked solid,” why your schedule isn’t full, or why you’re not making the kind of money you should be—this episode is going to sting a little (but in a good way).


It’s not because you don’t have the tools. It’s not because your ads aren’t perfect.


It’s because of what’s going on between your ears.


🧠 I talk about the real reason you haven’t hired that staff member... why you’re still not posting on social media... and why deep down, most business owners don’t feel good enough to grow. I used to feel the same. But that changes—when you change how you think.

EP650🔥 Paul On Fire: Self-First. F*ck the Rest.

Hey, it’s Paul Gough here — and in this special Paul On Fire episode, I’ve got one message for every PT clinic owner trying to make sense of the madness in the world right now:


👉 F*ck. Them. All.


This episode is a no-holds-barred rant on what’s really holding most business owners back — and it’s not taxes, politicians, or even the economy. It’s the bullshit conversations, the low-energy environments, and the people you’re still hanging around who drag you down and drown out your ambition.


I cover:


🔥 Why your environment is EVERYTHING — and how the wrong people are poisoning your belief in what’s possible


🔥 How to stop waiting for any government, political party or system to save you — because they won’t


🔥 The brutal truth about three generations of entitlement culture that’s destroying business ownership in the UK


🔥 Why most people handing out life advice haven’t even figured out their own sh*t


🔥 And the #1 belief shift that separates winners from whiners in 2025 and beyond


This isn’t about politics — it’s about personal responsibility. And how YOU showing up as a stronger, more confident version of yourself is the only way to lead others.


If you’re ready to stop tolerating lazy thinking, if you’re sick of letting the news or some bitter ex-employee tell you how the world works — then listen now.


This is me, unleashed. 🔥

EP649 Paul Meets: Will Harlow | Jordan Sahota | Ken Cheng

Hey, Paul Gough here – and you’re about to listen to one of the most raw, real, and inspirational episodes we’ve ever released on the Paul Gough Audio Experience.


In this episode, you’ll hear from not one, not two, but THREE incredible PTs – Will, Jordan, and Ken – who all made the leap from feeling stuck, overworked, and uncertain… to running thriving businesses, reclaiming their time, and stepping confidently into their roles as TRUE CEOs.


💡 You’ll hear how:

Will went from a burnt-out NHS physio to a YouTube sensation with 1.4M subscribers and a best-selling book deal...


Jordan left behind a university lecturer job, hired staff, won Britain’s Got Marketing Talent, and found the freedom to be fully present with his kids…


Ken scaled from a team of 2 to a fully built-out business, tripled his clinic size, and reclaimed his time – all in just ONE YEAR.


This isn’t theory. It’s real people, real stories, and real profits built from simple strategies, smart mentorship, and a refusal to settle.


🔒 You’ll also discover the #1 reason these PTs chose to stay in the Planet Paul Mastermind, even after hitting big goals… and why doubling down on coaching – not backing off – was the game changer.


This is for the clinic owner who KNOWS they’re meant for more… who’s tired of spinning their wheels… and who wants to see exactly what’s possible when you bet on yourself and surround yourself with the right people.


Plug in, get inspired, and if you feel that fire in your belly – don’t ignore it.

EP648 💯 Paul’s Highlights: Stop Playing Small

Hey, it’s Paul Gough here — and in this episode, I’ve pulled together some of the best clips from my social media this week to give you a straight shot of insight, clarity, and a bit of a kick up the arse if you need it.


These are the moments that resonated with thousands of PTs online — and I want to make sure you don’t miss them.


Here’s what I talk about in this episode:

  • Why chasing vanity services won’t scale your clinic — but recovery lounges, PBM, and concierge memberships absolutely will
  • How I’m helping clinic owners turn one patient into three or four income streams — without hiring more staff
  • Why execution beats ideas every time — and how AI is exposing the business owners who simply can’t commit
  • The real reason your marketing isn’t working… (hint: it’s got nothing to do with the algorithm and everything to do with what’s going on between your ears)
  • And why I believe you actually need a big ego if you want to grow something special — but you’ve got to use it the right way

Look, if you’re feeling stuck, frustrated, or tired of doing everything in your business — this episode will help. It’s a short, sharp dose of what’s working, what’s not, and what needs to change first if you want to build something that gives you freedom.


Go listen now — and if you want to watch these clips, head over to Instagram and find me @thepaulgough.

EP647🔥 Paul on Fire: The Rants & Revelations

In this episode, I go off on one of the most dangerous lies we feed our kids — and ourselves.


It all started when my 12-year-old son, Harry, came home from school and told me a “career advisor” stood up in front of his class and declared:


“The decisions you make in middle school will affect the rest of your life.”


Seriously? At 12? While he’s still playing Minecraft and watching YouTube?


So, I did what any rational father would do: I unleashed a proper rant. And now, I’m sharing it with you — because it’s not just about kids. It’s about how YOU were conditioned as a child to be afraid of making mistakes… and how that’s likely still affecting your decision-making as a clinic owner today.


This one’s not just a parenting rant — it’s a wake-up call to every clinic owner still looking for permission to build the business they actually want.


Turn it up. Take notes. And then go have a real conversation with your kid. Or your younger self.


🔥 Paul Gough. Unfiltered. Unapologetic. On Fire.

EP646 LIVE on Stage at PPM 2025: From Tears to Triumph

What happens when five burned-out, overwhelmed PT owners finally decide they’re done doing business the hard way?


In this raw and emotional episode, we take you behind the scenes of PPM LIVE 2025 — and into the hearts and minds of 5 clinic owners who stood on stage and revealed the exact moment everything changed.


You’ll hear the truth about what it really feels like to run a clinic on empty — and the breakthrough strategies, mindset shifts, and decisions that turned things around… fast.


From building profitable concierge services, to hiring their first admin, launching workshops, and finally letting go of control — these are real stories from real clinic owners who stopped trying to survive and finally started to scale.


This episode is for the PT owner who’s at a crossroads — who knows there’s more, but isn’t sure where to begin. If you’ve ever felt like walking away, listen to this first.


Because if it changed everything for them… it can change everything for you, too.

EP645 💯 Paul's Highlights: Stop Playing Small, Start Selling Smart

Hey, it’s Paul Gough here, and welcome to Paul’s Highlights — this is your weekly dose of the best clips we posted on social media… now in audio format so you can listen on the move.

In this week’s highlights, I cover some absolute game-changing mindset shifts you need to make in your business — especially if you want to stop struggling and start scaling in 2025.

Here’s what you’ll hear:

🔥 Why thinking like a pet instead of a marketer will crush your business before it ever really gets going.
🔥 The MASSIVE shift in revenue happening right now — from traditional PT to regeneration and wellness services… and how to ride the wave instead of drowning in it.
🔥 How to add $80-$100 per hour in pure profit with recovery lounges — no extra staff required.
🔥 The truth about perfectionism (and why it’s just an excuse that keeps you stuck).
🔥 How to create concierge and membership offers that reduce your caseload but skyrocket your profits.
🔥 Why the easiest way to spot someone who’s bad at sales… is their discomfort with being sold to.
🔥 And the single most important question every serious clinic owner must ask: What’s your profitability play?

Listen to this episode if you’re tired of chasing volume, and you’re finally ready to build a business that pays you what you’re worth — without working yourself into the ground.

And remember — if you want to watch these clips, head over to Instagram @thepaulgough. We’re dropping 3-5 posts every single day to help you become the best business owner you can be.

Let’s go.

EP644🔥 Paul On Fire: "They Said I Sounded Like a Car Salesman... Here’s Why That’s a GOOD Thing”

Hey, it’s Paul Gough here — and in this special Paul on Fire episode, I’m going off.


Wherever I go in the world, people tell me they love it when I rant — so that’s exactly what I’m giving you today. No fluff. No filters. Just raw, unfiltered truth for clinic owners who are sick of being stuck.


I’m talking about:


  • That guy who told me I sounded like a car salesman… and why people who hate being sold to are usually terrible at selling.
  • Why most clinic owners are trying to save their way to success instead of learning how to SELL their way there.
  • How I’ve built three 7-figure businesses, generated over $60 million, and helped 1,000+ clinic owners do the same — not by playing it safe, but by mastering marketing and sales.
  • The real reason your schedule isn’t full… and why your team might be too soft to fix it.
  • Why the best clinic owners are part Mars (fiery, hot, action-takers) and part Saturn (strategic, calm, future-focused)… and what happens when you lean too far into either.
  • Look, I’m not here to be your friend — I’m here to be your coach. If you want someone to pat you on the back and tell you it’s okay to stay broke and burned out, go listen to someone else. But if you’re ready to take control, take action, and get out of the treatment room… this episode is for you.

EP643 Paul Meets: Carrie Jose —From Solo Clinician to 7-Figure Practice Owner

In this special episode of Paul Meets, I sit down with one of the original members of the Planet Paul community — Carrie Jose, founder of CJ Physical Therapy & Pilates in Portsmouth, New Hampshire (https://cjphysicaltherapy.com/).


Carrie’s story is one of bold moves, big mindset shifts, and the resilience it takes to grow a business where everyone said it wouldn’t work.


🔑 Inside this conversation:
• Why Carrie left Washington, D.C. and restarted from scratch in a town where nobody knew her
• The moment she realized she didn’t want to be treating patients until 60 — and what she did about it
• How she scaled past $300K… then to $1M… and now heading toward $2.5M
• The “invisible” skills she had to learn (like hiring, managing, and systems) to become a real business owner
• Her take on loneliness as a business owner — and why finding the right coach and tribe changed everything
• What she loves most about being a CEO today — and what’s next for her wellness division


🔥 Whether you're just getting started or scaling fast, this episode is filled with real, raw, and practical insights from someone who's lived it.

🔥 Paul on Fire: Ditch the Rules


Hey, it’s Paul Gough here — and this episode might just be my favorite rant yet. I’ve gone full throttle on everything from why insurance is the slow death of your clinic, to what’s actually keeping you broke and burned out. If you’ve been feeling stuck, frustrated, or just done with being overworked and underpaid… this one’s for you.


Inside this Paul on Fire episode:


- Why the insurance system is a sinking ship (and how to escape without jumping overboard overnight)

- How to build a lucrative hybrid clinic with cash-pay services that patients actually want

- The real reason you feel so drained by your staff (hint: it’s not just the work)

- Why marketing isn’t about you — it’s about who your patient wants to become

- And why most clinic owners think they’re marketing… but are really just advertising out of desperation


Plus: the emotional freedom you’ll finally get when you stop being “just” a clinician and start thinking like a real business owner


If you’ve ever caught yourself thinking, “There has to be another way…” — this is it.


💥 You’re either going to keep playing by someone else’s rules… or you’ll set fire to the old system and start creating a business on your terms.

This episode of The Paul Goff Audio Experience brings together my most viral social media clips from the past week—raw, unfiltered, and straight from the frontlines of real business ownership.


In this highlight reel, I dive deep into what separates thriving clinic owners from everyone else. You’ll hear me on:

  • Why buying new machines doesn’t make you more money (but marketing does)
  • The three things every profitable business owner must obsess over—marketing, brand, and team
  • How to handle tough leadership calls and stop letting employees dictate your growth
  • The truth about “work-life balance” and why counterbalancing is the real game
  • Why you’ll never be judged fairly by those who don’t understand what it means to run a business


If you’re ready to hear the truths most clinic owners avoid—and you want to make more money, lead stronger teams, and finally build a business that runs without you—this is your episode.

EP639 🔥 Paul On Fire: The “AND” Life vs. The Broke Life

This episode will rattle your cage—in the best way possible.


In this Paul On Fire episode, I go off about one of the most toxic beliefs holding clinic owners back: the idea that you have to choose between success in business or fulfillment in life.


You’ve been taught that wanting BOTH is greedy. That to be a good parent, you need to sacrifice your ambition. That to run a clinic, you can’t have freedom, travel, or wealth.


Bollocks.


I call BS on it all—and share exactly how I’ve built a business AND a life worth living… and how I’m raising my kids to do the same.


🔊 Here’s what else I cover in this episode:

  • The deadly mindset of “either/or” that’s silently keeping you broke
  • How to talk transformation in your marketing so you can charge $200/session (not $60)
  • Why bragging about “great customer service” is a one-way ticket to being ignored
  • The real reason most physio businesses fail (spoiler: it’s not overspending on marketing—it’s not spending enough)
  • And why the most profitable thing you can do might just be… booking a plane ticket to an in-person event


If you’re running a clinic but feel like you’re stuck in a job, THIS is the slap you need to wake up.


⚠️ WARNING: Explicit language, brutal truths, and the occasional motivational punch in the gut included.

EP638 Paul Meets: Hoang Tran — From Overworked Therapist to Freedom-Focused CEO (And How She Did It)

In this powerful episode of Paul Meets, I sit down with the amazing Hoang Tran (https://handtherapysecrets.com) – an incredible hand therapist from Miami, FL – whose story is going to light a fire under any clinic owner feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or just plain tired of doing it all alone.


Hoang shares her journey from hospital-employed to private practice owner, and how the very thing that made her great– her clinical skill – also became the thing holding her business back.


If you've ever felt like you're “the only one who can do it right,” or you've sacrificed vacations, family time, or your sanity just to keep the doors open… Hoang’s story is going to hit home. We dive into:


✅ The trap of being TOO clinically skilled

✅ Hiring mistakes and the myth of “saving” every new therapist

✅ What really holds female entrepreneurs back (and how cultural expectations play a role)

✅ The power of letting go – and why your business can't scale until you do

✅ How one question, one belief, or one new decision can change everything


And most importantly – how Hoang finally broke free and reclaimed her time, her freedom, and her confidence by choosing to invest in HERSELF.


⚠️ WARNING: This episode contains truth bombs that may challenge your ego, but if you take them on board – they could change your life.


👉 If you want to stop being a slave to your clinic and build a business that supports your life, not consumes it, this episode is for you.


📍 Be sure to follow Hoang and check out her training platform at Hand Therapy Secrets – she’s one to watch. https://handtherapysecrets.com/


💥 Like, comment, and share this with another clinic owner who NEEDS to hear it.

EP637 💯 Paul's Highlights: The Best of Paul

🎧 Why Clinical Skills Alone WON’T Make You Rich in 2025…


In this powerful episode of The Paul Gough Audio Experience, I rip apart one of the biggest myths in our profession: that clinical skills are all you need to succeed.


You’ll hear the most impactful social media clips of the week, covering topics like:


Why being “the best” therapist means NOTHING if no one knows who you are.


How marketing is your real job as a business owner.


The mindset shift that turns a flatlined practice into a profitable machine.


Why there’s always money in your town (even if you swear there isn’t).

EP636 🔥 Paul on Fire: Unleashed

Paul On Fire 🔥

This Isn’t Just Another Podcast—This Is Paul, Unleashed.

If you've ever said, “I just listen for the rants”… this one's for you.

Inside this special edition of The Paul Gough Podcast, I’m going OFF. No filters. No holding back. Just the raw, unvarnished truth about what it really takes to win in business and life as a physical therapy clinic owner.

We’re calling it: Paul On Fire — and for damn good reason.

In this episode, I share the exact moment I decided I’d had enough of being stuck in a treatment room, broke, and burned out. I reveal the mindset shift that got me out, and the marketing that gave me the freedom to build a business in a town where everyone said, “You’ll never make money here.”

Expect rants on:

  • 🚫 Why “being good” is not enough in business

  • 💰 How marketing gave me control of my prices, schedule, and life

  • 🧠 Why most physios don’t actually know what they want—and how that’s killing their clinic

  • 🧱 How to build real strength (spoiler: it’s not in your biceps)

  • 🔥 The leadership mindset that separates wealthy clinic owners from overworked practitioners

This is for the ambitious clinic owner who’s sick of playing small, tired of listening to broke people for business advice, and ready to build a practice that actually gives them a LIFE.

If you’re ready to step up… or get slapped by the truth… turn this up loud and buckle up.

EP634 "My Boss Told Me I'd Never Make My Own PT Clinic Work - I Now Run a 7-Figure Clinic” with Keith Roed

In this one, I share with you the story of one of the most ambitious and success-hungry PTs I've ever worked with. You're about to hear from Keith Roed - of Impact PT in Sioux City, Iowa - as he presents to the room at last year’s PPM LIVE (23) in Orlando. At each event, I invite 5 clients to the stage to share with the room their best lessons on growing a business as well as what worked in marketing to help them become so successful. 

 

Keith's story is one I will never forget: He called me in 2018 after handing in his resignation at the clinic where he worked at the time with the goal of starting his own clinic. The owner told him "You will never make it work"... Keith laughed and said "Watch me"... Anyways, fast forward a few years, and Keith has a 7-figure practice that is THRIVING. 

 

There's so much to learn from this podcast... be sure to listen to it more than once!

EP633 Who Cares Why It Happened - What Are You Going To DO About It!? (with James Lawrence, AKA "Iron Cowboy")

In this one, I share with you some amazing highlights from the keynote session James Lawrence gave at PPM LIVE in 2022. My favorite was when James spoke about it being ok to have a "five-minute pity party - but no more".

The best thing about this Podcast is not just the content, but the story behind how James was the INSPIRATION for the amazing Chris Nikic - who happens to be the speaker at PPM LIVE 24.

Turn me up nice and loud to listen to how it all works...

EP632 Building Immunity from Criticism - With Dan Kennedy

In this one I share with you LIVE footage from when we had Dan Kennedy - the worlds No.1 Marketing Expert and  guy who taught me everything I know about Marketing - on my stage at PPM LIVE.

One of the things I got from Dan was the ability to make myself immune from criticism. Easier said than done, especially when you're in pursuit of a successful business that means you have to say and do things that lots of people don't agree with and we live in a world where most people have nothing else to do but pull other down.

Dan taught me that almost all people's opinions are irrelevant. It's one of the best SKILLS you'll ever develop. Turn us up nice and loud to hear more.
