ADHD and burnout for group practice owners is at the heart of this conversation with Gabrielle Juliano-Villani, a consultant who coaches group practices, advises on Medicare/Medicaid, and runs nervous-system-nourishing retreats. In this episode, Dan King and Gabby unpack how ADHD both fuels creativity and entrepreneurship and, without self-regulation, can drive impulsivity, loose boundaries, analysis paralysis, and ultimately burnout.
You’ll hear how burnout manifests differently for neurodivergent leaders—often as sensory overload and missed bodily signals—and why interoception and nervous system regulation are vital leadership skills. Gabby shares the emotional realities of selling her group practice: rejection-sensitive dysphoria during due diligence
We explore practical safeguards: naming values, delegating misaligned tasks, slowing down to make strategic decisions, and staying open to buyers (or using a broker) instead of closing doors prematurely. Gabby’s retreats (sound healing, expressive arts, CE credits) create space to shift from fight-or-flight, reconnect with purpose, and return with self-compassion and clearer decisions. If you’re a clinician or owner dealing with ADHD and burnout—or considering a sale—this episode provides you with grounded next steps to align culture, operations, and personal well-being.
