In this episode, I share a simpler way to think about it. Prepared means being clear on your caseload, clear on your priorities, and clear on your next few steps. I also walk through my 4 step framework to help you get the lay of the land, segment your caseload, set up your core systems, and plan the first two weeks without trying to map out the whole year. We are focusing on rapport, routines, and quick baseline data, working smarter, not harder.
