As the head coach and founder, I’d like to share a little about how Full Circle Coaching and Consulting came about.
I was a successful entrepreneur running a bustling chiropractic practice. I had a six-figure income to provide the lifestyle my family wanted while working just 25 hours a week and taking a few months of holiday every year.
People would ask, “How do you do it?” For some time, I’d take their calls and answer their questions as best I could. It got to a point, however, where I needed to make a choice: keep going as I had been, or teach other people how I’d gotten there. I felt that I owed it to people to help them understand how I designed my ideal life and manifested it.
We believe that every single one of the seven billion-plus people on the planet has an authentic essence: a gift completely unique to them that must be expressed. Just as a tree grows leaves each spring and geese fly south in the fall, there is an innate manifestation in every living being to express their essence. I’ve created a four-pillar model to help you develop your authentic essence and how to manifest it.
Let me give you a quick description of the model. First, you need to be crystal clear on who you are – and who you are not. Too often, people fall into someone else’s definition of who they should be by adopting their values and their priorities and goals as a result. We’ll clear away that clutter to reveal your true authentic essence, which will give you the creativity, power and wisdom to create or clarify your vision. We’ll help you define YOUR core values and the goals and priorities that naturally unfold from them, both personally and professionally. As they become clear, we’ll be able to help you develop your authentic vision, release the blocks to that vision, develop the systems that will support your vision and define and recruit the team you need to achieve it all.
Almost 30 years after launching Full Circle Coaching, the thing that still drives me to get up at 5:30 a.m. most mornings is the unshakable certainty I have that each individual can be, do and have absolutely anything that their heart truly values and their mind can visualize.
The ability to open someone’s eyes to their incredible inborn potential and then teach them the skills needed to manifest it while removing the blocks to its full manifestation brings me joy at the core of my being.
The enhanced prosperity, joy, fulfillment and love I have witnessed in the thousands of clients Full Circle has served over the decades continues to drive me to serve even more clients and help them design the amazing life and business they were born to manifest.

In this video, Dr. Tom discusses how to future-proof your chiropractic practice, ensuring that the incredible culture and legacy you've built can be passed on to future generations. It's essential to share your knowledge and experience to help the profession grow and thrive. Here are the steps to effectively pass the torch and secure the future of your practice.
The first step in future-proofing your chiropractic practice is deciding whether you want an outright sale or a gradual transition. While both options have their merits, a gradual transition, such as a 15-20% junior partner buy-in, can be less emotionally and financially taxing. This approach allows the junior doctor to earn their place and provides a smoother handover.
Knowing the value of your practice is crucial. An accurate appraisal helps you understand what the junior partner buy-in should be and sets the stage for a fair transition. Consider professional appraisal services to get a precise valuation of your practice.
The best successor is often someone already familiar with your practice. An existing associate knows your patients, culture, team, and systems, making the transition seamless. If you don't have an associate, start recruiting and look for someone who can uphold your standards and values.
Once you've chosen your successor, set up a mentoring schedule. Identify the traits, skills, and capabilities they need to develop. Draft a detailed contract and outcomes assessment to guide the transition. This structured approach ensures that your successor is well-prepared to take over.
Future-proofing your chiropractic practice is a strategic process that benefits both the senior and junior doctors. By planning ahead, mentoring your successor, and ensuring a smooth transition, you can preserve the legacy of your practice. If you need assistance, consider professional services to help navigate this important journey.
