In this episode, Tyson Franklin is joined by Melbourne Podiatrists, Richard Chasen, for a deep and thought-provoking discussion about business, life choices, and what success really looks like in podiatry.

They explore the idea that while you can have anything you want, you can't have everything, and how this impacts decisions around hiring, income, lifestyle, and long-term career direction. The conversation also challenges common beliefs about money, patient care, and what it truly takes to build a sustainable practice.

This episode is ideal for podiatrists who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure about their next move and are looking for clarity and practical insights to move forward.
