Business and medicine are interwoven together. Both deeply connect people together through relationships that have an impact.. Yet it’s easy to see the business of medicine as something separate from the practice of medicine. Consider challenging the limiting paradigms and stories you might have on running a business in medicine. A successful business is founded on the principles of providing honest value. And technological advances through social media give us the possibility of connecting with people who are looking for your services. It can be an opportunity to create something that reflects who you are and to promote our medicine by facilitating learning.

In this conversation with Jimmy Yen, we dig into the intersection of running a business and leveraging social media for your practice. We discuss self-cultivation, getting our hands dirty with the business of medicine, and the need to band together as Chinese practitioners for the betterment of our medicine. Jimmy also shares his perspective on social media and some tips to make it work for you.

Listen into this discussion on the business of medicine and the role of social media as a tool to promote our profession.

In This Conversation We Discuss:

  • Chinese medicine and “love at first sight”
  • Tapping into social media to nudge Chinese medicine into omnipresence
  • How do you build an automated practice?
  • Getting your heart and mind around what you actually want
  • Increasing your capacity and achieving freedom – Breaking the chains beyond survival
  • Tips for leveraging the power of social media (Instagram, TikTok, Facebook), even as an introvert
  • Translating social presence into clinical appointments
  • A mission to develop and promote our profession
  • Top social media platform for Chinese medicine practitioners

You can have everything in life you want if you will just help enough other people get what they want.​​
