Dr. Betsy Greenleaf Transitions from Hospital Drudgery to Successful Independent Practice Ownership

I'm Dr. Betsy Greenleaf. I'm the first board-certified female urogynecologist in the United States from New Jersey. The Mindshare Summit has been so inspirational for me. I put off attending for years because I just didn't know and my friends were like "you gotta go to this place," "you gotta go to the place" and I finally listened. And the moment I walked into Mindshare my life was changed. I worked for 17 years for a hospital and was in that day to day drudgery and it was like, all of a sudden this bright shining light - which was Mindshare - came into my life and it has completely turned my life, my hope, my business, completely around. My business has grown in leaps and bounds. I went from working for a hospital to actually being my own boss and being able to take the knowledge that I have accumulated and really build a practice that is satisfying to myself and really helpful to my clients. So, it's kind of like you got out of that box of that day to day like see more patients, spend less time with the hospitals push. I was able to reclaim that power and do things my way which actually makes a difference in my life, my family's life, and even in the life of my patients. Being a member of the Mindshare community has been just absolutely amazing. First of all is having that support of like-minded people and finding your tribe has been really important. It's just kind of like this area of belonging. Then also, has given me the confidence to try new things, branch out and given me that business knowledge to expand the business. And the support because everybody's going through it together and they're always talking about, you can't compare someone's chapter twenty with your chapter one. But it's those people that have the chapter twenty that are so uplifting. They come and take the people who are chapter one and help them grow and succeed because as JJ Virgin always says, "A rising tide lifts all boats." And that's been really the experience I've had at Mindshare. That Everybody's in this together, there's no competition, everyone's really here to help each other. Come to the Mindshare Summit: A sense of belonging, community and actually being a child again and having fun. So we sometimes forget when we're in that day-to-day drudgery of work, to actually have fun and enjoy our lives. And so Mindshare really puts that back into everyone's life and their business.
