After struggling through chiropractic school with debilitating symptoms, a life-changing CBCT scan and precise upper cervical care transformed her health—and her calling. Dr. Walker discusses the impact of mentorship, the value of associateship training, the realities of launching a practice with a newborn at home, and the importance of systems, marketing, and balance in business ownership. She also shares how partnering with UCM Practice Growth Systems helped simplify her marketing, strengthen her systems, and create steady growth in her first year of practice. This episode is a heartfelt and practical look at what it really takes to build a purpose-driven upper cervical practice. ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/upper-cervical-marketing-podcast-6619766/episodes/ucm-290-from-patient-to-practitioner-dr-caitlin-walker-s-blair-upper-cervical-journey/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/upper-cervical-marketing-podcast-6619766/ucm-290-from-patient-to-practitioner-dr-caitlin-walker-s-blair-upper-cervical-journey.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
