Holistic Business Coaching for Healthcare Leaders
Julie Bear Don’t Walk is here to help you THRIVE as a clinic owner.
My approach grows businesses that provide you with more time, more income, and more energy.
This is the anti-burnout approach to healthcare and business ownership.
THRIVING IN YOUR BUSINESS IS ONE OF THE MOST HEALING THINGS YOU CAN DO AS A HEALTHCARE PROVIDER
You became a healer to help people.
Your practice should reflect healing for you, too.
No more systems rooted in depletion. No more helping at the expense of your own vitality. No more being exhausted by patient care, managing your team, or running your business.
→ You’re brilliant at clinical care — but secretly dreading your next full day of clients
→ The go-to problem solver — but tired of being the only one who knows how to fix everything
→ Craving support — but unsure how to receive it without guilt, without it taking more time that it seems worth, and also…nobody does it like you do?
→ Sitting on brilliant ideas for growth and serving your patients and community better — but have no time, energy, or system to birth them
→Overgiving (again) — and under-receiving (again)
You’re the magic behind your practice — but lately, it’s more draining than inspiring. Now you’re experiencing the same symptoms your patients look to you for wisdom about—stress, headaches, overwhelm…you know this list. And the worst part?
You’re too smart to pretend this is sustainable.
I Offer Another Way—
The Anti-Burnout Approach To Practice Growth
Holistic Business Coaching For Healthcare Leaders
Enough with the over-giving and under-receiving.
You became a healer to help. You can help best when you are present, resourced, and in the flow.
How do you get THERE? This is where I come in.
If you help people, I can help you grow your business in a thoughtful way—without overwhelm and burnout.
This means more profit without working more hours.
This means more income without sacrificing your values.
This means receiving more support from a committed team.
This means walking your talk when it comes to work-life balance.
This means going home with better energy and better mood at the end of the day.
This means being able to rest in systems that truly support you.
It’s time to ditch the overwhelm & prioritize the vitality of you and your practice
Let’s talk about what’s possible for you and your clinic. About what it would mean for you to receive ACTUAL support from your team, and from someone who has been in your exact shoes. You don’t have to reinvent the wheel. You just have to know…things can’t keep going the way they are.
“Julie quite literally helped me design my dream practice and supported me every step of the way to make it happen.”
With Julie’s support, I moved into a bigger, dream clinic space, expanded my associate’s hours (and filled her schedule and mine), let go of my virtual receptionist, hired an office manager, brought on additional front desk support, and most recently, hired another associate to prepare for my maternity leave.
Julie quite literally helped me design my dream practice and supported me every step of the way to make it happen. Now, just months away from going on leave, I feel confident that my clinic will not only survive but thrive while I’m away. She has helped me hit every goal I ever set for myself, and I am beyond grateful. THANK YOU.—Marisa B, Acupuncturist, California
P.S. I’m officially on maternity leave and my team of two associates are on track to have a 40k revenue month–without me! This works!
“I was just running the numbers from last year and in 2023, we grossed $208k, and for 2024, it was $387k! Thanks for all your support in helping me get there!”

I just wanted to say THANK YOU. I've been reflecting on my clinic's growth and how fun and almost effortless it is, and it all started with the group coaching I did with you . There was an exercise that I think was "Envision your Perfect Team" or something similar, and I knew there was one employee I had to let go. We had a session about the firing process, and the firing went as smoothly as it could. You also put into my mind that my clinic could see 100 patients/week, which sounded insane to me at the time, but we have 110 appointments on the schedule this week (and most weeks the last few months have been 90!)

436.3% practice growth.
That's what a coaching client has experienced since we started working together last year.
She reached out to me in July 2023,, and was then seeing about 25 patients a week. She had hired another coach, but wasn't getting the results she wanted (no shade, it just wasn't yielding what she wanted).
We started working together--first in a small group, then 1:1, and this week she is seeing 96 patients.
AND she took a 3 week trip to Europe with her family this summer.
AND she takes a week off periodically to work on her DAOM (every couple of months).
She will be out of the office for 10 days this month.
AND her new norm is 90ish patients a week.
In our time together, she hired really great front desk support, expanded her current office from 3 to 4 treatment rooms, and shored up her patient communication and cancellation policy. She also went from seeing 2 patients an hour, to 3 patients an hour, and now, 4 patients an hour.
She's not exhausted. She said her full days feel really easy now.
She gets EXCELLENT results for her patients (her practice is largely referrals from her current patients).
She's a mom, with two school age children and a partner who works full time.
She's doing what she loves, and she's making a great living. She dives deep into the medicine as her passion. She's clear that she wants to help many people feel better, and that she wants to make a great living doing it.
This is a perfect example of what's possible with coaching. THIS is why I coach. Because 70 more patients per week are getting care from someone who is prioritizing her own health and wellbeing, living her dream life.
Next up? She'll be hiring an Associate. And a year from now, her clinic will be helping 150-160 patients a week with the same care and sustainable systems in place.
(We just met and she gave me permission to share this story with you all!)

I’m Julie Bear Don’t Walk, and my greatest commitment is to help you thrive—in your healthcare business and your life.
Healing is my mission. Transforming generational patterns of “not enough” is my purpose.
I’ve been coaching practitioners how to thrive in their clinics since 2017. I’ve helped hundreds of clients increase their income, have more time for what matters most to them, and go home with better energy at the end of the day.
I grew my own cash practice to a team of eight helping 150 patients a week in an all cash practice (in a building I owned), while thriving in my marriage, as a parent, as a clinician and leader. What started as one room sublease and white-knuckling my schedule grew to a practice beyond my wildest imagination. It was built on systems, human-centered communication, and a deep commitment to realizing my vision in a sustainable way.
I didn’t just “know” how to grow a business, or how to help people heal. I grew up in a household where suffering was the dominant state of being. My mother grew up with trauma — alcoholism, abuse, poverty, ADHD, depression, being a woman in the 1970’s without much financial agency. She suffered physical pain, mental pain, and tremendous shame. Her coping skills consisted of escape and addiction.
As the oldest of six children and I stood in for her when her suffering overwhelmed her ability to be a present parent. As a kid, I just wanted to help. I understand that as an adult, my capacity to help when I was a child was pretty limited, but my desire to help others was born of witnessing this kind of life-defining suffering.
Healing is possible. That’s what my life has taught me. No matter how much suffering you have experienced. No matter what you came from. Your thriving—financially, emotionally, relationally—is entirely possible. This is my life’s work. I am here to help you thrive. I am here to help you learn how to connect with your own agency, again and again and again. You are the leader of your life. This is how everything changes, for generations forwards and backwards.
My greatest passion is to help you create real gains with your time, money, and energy.
This is what I came here to do.
It’s time to create a nourishing, profitable, sustainable healthcare practice as a key part of your own healing journey.
All business growth is about healing the patterns that disconnect you from your agency.
