- 00:36:11 – Question 02 – My practice had experienced consistent annual growth prior to COVID. However, the last 3 years have stumbled a bit and only now, in 2023, we are back to our 2019 numbers. I like your goal of 10% or more annual growth. Do you think 10% growth for 2024 is realistic for my practice considering the last few years and how challenging they have been?

- 00:45:50 – Question 04 – I really love your concept of having a BHAG. However, is having a BHAG consistent with also achieving an effective work-life balance?
