Picture this: you're so committed to serving everyone that you literally can't walk. Dr. Nikki Cottis was adjusting patients in professional heels, over-giving her way to financial struggle, until she tore her Achilles. When the orthopedist said she needed eight weeks off for surgery, Nikki knew something had to radically change.What unfolded was a complete identity reconstruction. She went from the woman who thought she had to save all of Alabama to the systems genius who teaches practitioners how to create sustainable practices without losing their hearts.🔥 In This Episode:The moment her body literally stopped her from over-giving and how that physical breakdown became her greatest breakthroughWhy switching from heels to sneakers wasn't just about comfort but about stepping into authentic alignmentHow COVID stripped away all the excess and revealed what actually creates growth in practiceThe difference between capacity limits that are real versus the lies we tell ourselves about what we can handleHow asking ChatGPT to help her be a better coach revealed she wasn't celebrating her own winsThe conversation every team leader needs to have about life seasons, responsibilities, and shared graceNikki proves that the most powerful systems are built on understanding humans, not controlling them. She shows us what happens when you stop apologizing for wanting structure while still crying with your patients, and that you can demand excellence while honoring everyone's different life seasons.Nikki's journey from the woman who couldn't say no to the coach who helps others find their capacity reminds us that sometimes the most radical act is admitting you're not that serious all the time. She's a Penn State football fanatic who wants to be known as someone's funniest best friend, building something meaningful while staying completely, unapologetically herself.BONUS: Are you ready to discover what it means to build something beautiful with your team?
