I’m Julie Bear Don’t Walk, and my greatest commitment is to help you thrive - in your healthcare business and your life.
All business growth is about healing the patterns that disconnect you from your agency.
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.
