Here we are at episode 52, exactly one year since we launched The Heart Work Podcast!! From that first vulnerable conversation to hosting our first live event, this year has been proof that when you lead with heart, everything accelerates.
This past weekend, practice owners and their teams traded their polished professional facades for something infinitely more powerful. Four months from conception to reality, Dr. Sara and Dr. Marisa's first Heart Work live event became proof of what happens when teams stop performing their way to success and start leading from authentic transformation.
This wasn't your typical business seminar. Friday night under the open sky on a Tennessee farm became the foundation for Saturday's breakthrough work at Freedom Chiropractic. What emerged across both days had participants saying "100 out of 10" and "nothing else like this exists."
🔥 In This Episode:
- The intentional decision to create intimacy over impressive numbers and why the perfect size allowed barriers to dissolve and authentic leadership to emerge
- How Friday night's foundation of individual radical ownership became Saturday's breakthrough in team dynamics, systems work, and business transformation
- The profound shift from asking "how do I get there?" to asking "why do I want that?" and how this one question revolutionizes everything from team buy-in to personal fulfillment
- Real moments of team members apologizing, having difficult conversations, and stepping into ownership because the weekend created space for authenticity over avoidance
- Why the most impactful leadership happens when you stop solving problems for others and start posing questions that invite them into their own genius
What unfolded wasn't just professional development but permission for an entire room of leaders to remember that doing the inner work isn't about performing better, it's about being well as humans, which inevitably transforms everything else. This is what happens when heart work meets business strategy, and why authentic leadership will always outperform polished perfection.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
