Join the Million Dollar Practice Masterclass on October 15th here: go.thewealthypractitioner.com/milliondollarpracticemasterclass What would break if you left the country for two weeks? In this episode of Meant to Win, Dr. Stephanie Wigner shares the plan she'd follow to remove yourself from your business and have it ready to exit in five years or less, built from what she and Kyle learned doing it themselves. Today they own five brick and mortar locations and don't operate inside any of them. Steph walks through the plan year by year: knowing your numbers, getting out of the engine seat, building your bench, and scaling with discernment. You'll also hear why most practices aren't as sellable as their owners think, and what to clean up now. If you've built a business and think you might want to sell it in the next few years, this one's for you. CHAPTERS 00:35 Scaling means something different for everyone 01:52 How we removed ourselves from five locations 02:33 Year one: Get obsessed with your numbers 03:36 Year two: Get out of the engine seat 05:07 Year three: Build your bench 06:39 Protecting your business from key man risk 08:37 Getting your team bought into the vision 09:01 Year four: Scale with discernment and know the cost 12:28 Year five: Sell it, keep it, or duplicate it 13:34 The truth about selling a practice 15:36 What to clean up now if you want to exit 16:49 Keeping your business as a cash flowing asset KEY TAKEAWAY "You've built something really incredible.

E176 Permission to Diversify (Why I'm Breaking My Own $25K Rule)
Ready to find your bottleneck? Take the assessment here: https://go.thewealthypractitioner.com/practice-scaling-assessment?utm_source=podcast&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=psa What if the advice you've been following is the very thing keeping you stuck? In this episode of Meant to Win, Dr. Stephanie Wigner breaks her own most famous rule. For years she's taught that you should be profiting $25K a month before you diversify, and she still stands by it. But over the last nine months she's watched clients build businesses that aren't aligned with who they are, with no growth in three to four years, and she's done letting her advice be the reason someone isn't fully alive. Steph explains why 90% of entrepreneurs still get distracted trying to build a second business, and what it looked like when she had her profit locked in before going from one clinic to two and then into coaching. You'll hear about the docuseries she's producing and the bigger vision for Meant to Win Media. You'll hear the conversation with Kyle about earning the right to diversify, and why even with the money there, a new project still makes her feel like a fish out of water. Then she gets personal. Scaling The Wealthy Practitioner has been the most human experience of her life since becoming a mom, and she walks through the four layers of identity she's been working through: what you inherited, what you've been told, what you've adapted, and what you've chosen. If you've been playing by the rules and still feel like something is suffocating you, this one's for you. CHAPTERS 00:57 The $25K rule and why it still stands 01:38 When your business is suffocating you 02:31 Why 90% of people shouldn't diversify yet 03:17 The docuseries and the vision for Meant to Win Media 04:43 Fighting alignment caps your abundance 07:03 Why my coaches won't love this episode 07:31 Risk it to get the biscuit 08:28 Earning the right to diversify 09:04 Questions to ask before you break the rules 09:42 The most human experience since becoming a mom 10:57 The four layers of your identity 12:13 You can't know abundance without knowing lack KEY TAKEAWAY "There's a world where both realities are true. You can have your profit and diversify. You can diversify before having your profit. You just have to be radically honest with yourself about which one makes the most sense for you."

E175 What I’d Do If Your Business Were Mine (Inside Our First VIP Day)
Ready to find your bottleneck? Take the assessment here: https://go.thewealthypractitioner.com/practice-scaling-assessment?utm_source=podcast&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=psa What if someone looked at your business and told you exactly what they'd do if it were theirs? That's what happened at our very first VIP day. In this episode of Meant to Win, Dr. Stephanie Wigner takes you inside the weekend with 10 business owners at headquarters. Everyone did homework in advance, so Steph and the coaches knew what each person needed before they walked in. Then they hot seated the one thing that would move the needle most. For many, that was money. Steph breaks down how she allocates her own profit, what goes back into the business, what she keeps for fun money, and what goes into investments. She also shares the first thing she checks in any business: your financial infrastructure and your business model. You'll hear about a nurse practitioner spending $4,000 a month on Google Ads and $2,000 on Facebook with no idea what she's getting back. You'll hear how a snowbird practice can turn a $400 patient into a $1,200 patient in four months by selling three services instead of one. You'll also hear about LLC vs S Corp, write-offs, getting the right people in the right seats, and whether it's time to stop optimizing for balance and go all in. Then she shares what her team is planning. VIP days are coming two or three times a year, stacked with their quarterly EOS days so it's easier on coaches who live all over the world. The 2027 calendar is getting set now, so clients can plan their year around retreats, pop-up masterminds, Meant to Win in February, and a tour event in early August. If you're a visionary who resists planning ahead, this part is for you. Structure is what gives your team and your clients their freedom. CHAPTERS 00:00 Hosting our first ever VIP day 02:39 How we prepped and what we hot seated 03:17 Why your business model decides how much you keep 04:02 Know your numbers: the ad spend and break-even math 05:10 Snowbird season and raising lifetime value 05:56 Selling more to the person right in front of you 06:30 Structures, write-offs, and going all in on the dream 07:00 Mindset, money restrictiveness, and getting the right team 07:30 Why intentional events feel like more than their money's worth 08:02 Planning 2027 with your team 08:46 What the event cadence looks like 09:19 Visionaries and why structure gives you freedom KEY TAKEAWAY If your business model isn't built for profitability and scale, serving hundreds of people won't change your personal finances. And the lack of structure you think is protecting your freedom is often the exact thing creating your chaos. CTA Want a seat in the room? Shoot Steph a DM about the next VIP day.

E174 The BTS of Our Full Send Life with Snack Daddy (Before We Close It Forever)
Join Full Send here: http://go.thewealthypractitioner.com/mtw-podcast-fullsend In this episode of Meant to Win, Dr. Stephanie Wigner sits down with her husband Kyle, aka Snack Daddy, for the deepest conversation the two of them have had on the show, recorded as she announces this is the last Full Send she'll ever run. Going full send is what took them from Kyle driving an hour and a half to his first office to make partner to multi-millionaires with multiple clinics, a coaching company, and a team that can finally carry the weight. For the first time we get Kyle's side of the last 18 months: watching Steph cry that nothing was working while he could see the rock finally starting to roll downhill, and the text he sent her mid-grind: I don't want you on your deathbed on your computer responding to clients. They revisit the clinic expansion that almost broke them as parents and partners, the moment Ed Mylett told Steph to stop negotiating with herself, and the next unlock they're naming out loud: a full send into regulation. If you've ever wondered what going all in actually costs, and what it looks like to the person standing next to you, this one's for you. CHAPTERS 00:46 The Decision to Make This the Last Full Send 02:39 What 18 Months of Grinding Really Felt Like 04:56 There's No Playbook for Scaling 05:30 Ed Mylett: Stop Negotiating With Yourself 07:03 Going All In Is Only Step One 07:24 The Clinic Expansion That Almost Broke Them 08:56 Earning the Right to Choose What's Next 10:39 When Problems Stop Crushing You 13:14 The Next Unlock: Full Send Into Regulation 16:19 Master the Money Game First 18:29 Join the Very Last Full Send KEY TAKEAWAY Going all in gets you in the game. Becoming the person who can hold everything you asked for is the other 80 percent, and growth doesn't come from doing more, it comes from becoming more. There's no toe dipping in this. This is the very last Full Send, ever. Join before we kick off on September 23rd: http://go.thewealthypractitioner.com/mtw-podcast-fullsend

E173 It's Officially Full Send Season
Join Full Send here: ThewealthypractitionerFull Send 2026 In this episode of Meant to Win, Dr. Stephanie Wigner opens the doors to Full Send, the 30-day program she runs only once a year inside her community, back for its third round after more than 700 entrepreneurs joined last year. Stephanie shares what going full send has looked like in her own life: opening her first business with no money and no blueprint, and buying her team's HQ and podcast studio with an all-cash offer just three days after seeing the listing on a Friday afternoon. She breaks down the belief that reprogrammed her internal operating system: you don't have to settle for good enough when extraordinary is an option, and the fastest path to a quantum leap is shortening the distance between the moment you have an idea and the moment you execute on it. If you're ready to work on your mindset, your money beliefs, and your identity alongside a thousand other entrepreneurs doing the same! CHAPTERS 02:42 The identity that opened her first business with no money 03:22 Buying HQ in one weekend: the $789K all-cash decision 03:58 Collapsing timelines: the space between idea and execution 04:35 Gratitude without settling: why abundance has no cap 05:10 The rebrand story and reprogramming your internal operating system 05:55 Inside Full Send: $33 early bird, affiliates, and prizes 07:11 Kickoff September 23rd: four weeks of live calls 07:38 Closing: growth comes from becoming more KEY TAKEAWAY A quantum leap is just a collapsed timeline. The distance between having the idea and executing on it is where most people lose, and going full send means closing that gap. Join Full Send before we kick off on September 23rd!

Dr. Stephanie Wigner shares the journal entry that pushed her to stop seeing patients, the moment an attendee told her "you really hurt my feelings" and why her answer was that she's not here to be liked, and the story behind building the table where everybody gets a seat.

E171 Manifesting More and Writing it Off with Barbara Schreihans
In this episode of Meant to Win, Dr. Stephanie Wigner sits down with her dear friend Barbara, founder of Your Tax Coach, who built a tax firm to eight figures with a 40-person team over 17 years. Barb rapid-fires the strategies most practitioners and online business owners miss: getting your S corp structure right, buying your brick and mortar to use the self rental aggregate election, and writing off wellness expenses like peptides, red light saunas, and gym memberships through a second company. She also defends her most controversial take, that you can write off clothing: "how do you think Mr. Beast is writing off a Lamborghini that he's blowing up?" Then the conversation goes deeper, into the money stories both women had to rewrite as the first in their families to build wealth, the People magazine cover of matching $75,000 G-Wagons Barb manifested into her own garage 20 years later, and the breaking point at month 13 of 20-hour days that forced her first hire. This one is for every business owner who's figured out how to make money and now needs to learn what to do with it, and who's still carrying the belief that working harder is what makes them valuable. CHAPTERS 01:27 Three Tax Strategies Most Business Owners Miss 03:07 Writing Off Wellness Expenses 04:49 The Clothing Write-Off Hot Take 05:55 The Documentation That Protects You 06:19 Stop Taking Money Advice From Jimmy 08:54 The Kardashians and Rewriting a Money Story 10:04 Manifesting the Matching G-Wagons 11:45 Jealousy Is a Secret Desire 14:23 The Breaking Point at Month 13 15:48 Hiring Help at Home and in Business 20:28 What Barb Is Building Next: Community 21:27 The Power of Getting in the Room KEY TAKEAWAY Making money is only half the game; knowing what to do with it is the other half. Get right with your money in all ways, and get in rooms with people who are already where you want to go.

E170 Lessons Learned From Being Inside a Multiple 8-Figure Room
In this episode of Meant to Win, Dr. Stephanie Wigner takes you inside a private AI day ran by her best friend, Callan Faulkner in Nashville with 15 women running seven and eight figure businesses, including a conversation with Jenna Kutcher she can't stop thinking about. Fifteen years into the online game, Jenna told her something that stuck: she had won the game of business and wanted to play the games of life she hadn't explored yet. Stephanie gets honest about bouncing between "I'm doing so much" and "I'm not doing enough," why she's spent the last 60 days clearing everything off her plate that isn't aligned, and the question she wants every business owner sitting with: how much of your revenue actually exists outside of your time? She also announces Full Send, the docu-series she's been filming for the past 12 months. Chapters: - 00:04 Welcome & Introduction - 01:57 Power of Expansive Rooms - 05:38 Realizations from High-Performing Peers - 06:52 Insightful Conversation with Jenna Kutcher - 08:53 Building Beyond Success - 11:01 Aligning Purpose with Action - 12:14 Transitioning from Business Owner to Founder - 14:50 Launching a Legacy: The Docu-Series Key Takeaway: Ask yourself the founder question Steph is now building around: how much of your revenue and impact is leveraged outside the hours you put in? A business owner trades time for results. A founder builds assets that keep working when she steps away.

E169 This Is What Building A Wealthy Life Looks Like
In this episode of Meant to Win, Dr. Stephanie Wigner is fired up, recording hours after Dr. Nikki Cottis taught a masterclass for The Wealthy Practitioner, the first time in the company's history that a dollar got made without being attached to Stephanie's time and Stephanie's effort. Stephanie unpacks what full send season looks like on the other side of 200 days that felt like getting hit on the chin over and over: releasing the Practice Scaling Assessment, opening her custom AI coaching tool to people outside the Mastermind for the first time, and spending north of $450,000 to put 300 practitioners in a room in San Diego, a number she calls debilitating and is spending anyway because the woman she was two years ago wouldn't have. Then her son Jet, scared about going out on a fishing boat, laid in bed the night before and told her the best description of entrepreneurship she's ever heard: this whole side of my body is really scared and this whole side of my body is excited. Stephanie gets honest about what wealth actually means to her, and money is only part of it. Wealth is picking Jet up from camp in the golf cart and taking him for ice cream on a Friday afternoon. This episode is a call to every business owner stacking losses right now to stay true to what they came for, because it only takes one win to erase all of them. CHAPTERS: 01:10 When Every Dollar Is Attached to Your Time 01:49 The Assessment Built From 10 Years of Frameworks 03:28 From Recalibration Season to Full Send 04:07 300 Practitioners, San Diego, and a $450K Budget 05:22 Jet and the Fishing Boat 07:32 Scared and Excited in the Same Body 08:07 The Real Texture of Building Something Worthwhile 09:21 Five Days on Building a Wealthy Practice 10:34 Why Wealth Is the Golf Cart and the Ice Cream 12:14 200 Days of Losses and the One Win That Reset Everything Key Takeaway: You don't need the losses to stop coming. One win is enough to reset every loss you've been carrying, so stay true to what you came for and don't quit before you get it.
