Summary
In this episode, Cathy Love is joined by Emma Leckenby , OT and founder of Little Rockets Children’s Clinic , for a grounded conversation about building a paediatric business that stays values-led as it grows. Emma shares what it’s been like moving from sole trader life to a small (and growing) clinic team — including the realities of waitlists , a brand-new clinic fit-out, and why the “little things” (like a kettle and a dedicated kitchen) matter more than you’d think. They also unpack Emma’s passion for community building, not just for families, but for clinicians too — and how strong professional networks reduce isolation, strengthen referrals, and support sustainability in an unpredictable Allied Health landscape. Topics covered on community-led practice growth , s ustainable business design , and cinician support networks : Community-led practice growth – How Emma intentionally builds trusted relationships with families, schools, and fellow clinicians to support access, referrals, and long-term care. Sustainable business design – Designing a clinic, team, and pace of growth that protects energy, avoids burnout, and supports high-quality care. Clinician support networks – Why creating local professional communities reduces isolation, strengthens decision-making, and helps practices navigate uncertainty together. P.S.
