ACU-047 In this episode I meet with Phil Settels the Dean and creator of the DAOM program at ACCHS, the Academy of Chinese Culture and Health Sciences. We decided to bring the long held tradition of teaching thru case studies to the AcuSprout airwaves.
- We talk about Phil’s training with Dr. Huang Huang and how the Ten Key Formula Families is and integral part of his SHL diagnostic process.
- We discuss abdominal Fukushin diagnosis.
- We discuss how he decides between treating low back or knee pain with a formula or local orthopedic acupuncture...or both
- Phil talks about one of his first clinical mis-steps with Ma Huang and how it resolved.
Listen in and puzzle through with me as Phil presents a case and shows me a new way to reason through the formula prescription based on his teachings with Dr. Huang Huang, Arnaud Versluys, and Dr. Suzanne Robidoux.
Enjoy the journey and get a flavor for the teachings of the DAOM program at ACCHS.

ACU-046 How To Build A Company Everyone Loves with Co-CEO of Jane, Alison Taylor
December 20, 2022
•73m
Listen in as I talk with Ali about how to create a company that when customers tell other people about it, they don’t say they “like” it. They say they “love” it.
I think one of the toughest things about designing your future upon graduation is actually taking the time to do it.
Especially after 3-4 years of no money coming in.
Especially when the people around you seem to have a plan.
Especially when you have had such focus on education and learning that you have lost touch with that person in the mirror.
Perhaps you have no idea what you want in your immediate future. Or even 5 year future.
But here’s the thing. That is exactly why you should take the time to explore.
To ask yourself the tough questions. What DO you like? Those favorite patients you treated in student clinic? What made them so likeable? Are those traits or characteristics something you want to see more in your practice?
What cases, treatments, modalities, and classes light you up from the inside? What do you find yourself talking about with regards to Chinese medicine?
If you do the work in the beginning, if you envision the feel, the experience and the soul of your practice, it will act as a magnet for those defined elements that bring you joy. You will be creating an experience for your patients that no other practitioner can.
Today’s Guest
ALISON TAYLOR, CO-CEO OF JANE

Hey friends. Are you stuck?
Afraid to open your practice, get a job, go to a networking meeting, learn to play pickle ball, create an instagram reel?
Are you afraid of what your classmates, relatives, future patients, former teachers and your neighbor Bob think of you?
Think about it. If everyone were perfect:
What would comedians talk about?
Would you actually have a job or career?
And here is a tragedy I am not sure I could have gotten thru medical school without.
The TV show, The Big Bang Theory would never have made it. I mean, this is a whole 13 year run of a show literally based on the imperfections of ALL of its characters.
Not being perfect makes you interesting.
But before I continue I want you to know that I hear you. And I see you. Because i am you. I can make light of being a perfectionist and talk about how uninterested people really are about what you are doing. That it’s fine and you matter and that you are unique and perfect in all of your imperfections. But that doesn’t really get us to the root of the problem does it?
today’s episode
- I uncover the root of perfectionism.
- Talk about 6 ways to be an imperfect entrepreneur.
- Share 8 steps to create a “whole” practice, not a “perfect” one.
