    How Do I Fix Inefficient Workflows in My Medical Clinic? (opens the original)

    Episode notes · Critical tone

    Read excerpt

    A patient walked into our clinic with a $5 statement. That tiny balance sent me down a much bigger leadership rabbit hole. Why were we still doing it this way? And more importantly, was the problem really the employee following the process — or the process itself? In this episode of Unbreakable Woman, I share what that moment taught me about outdated clinic procedures, leadership responsibility, and the danger of correcting people before examining the system they were trained to follow. If you'v

    How to Say the Hard Thing Without Making It Messier (opens the original)

    Episode notes · Neutral tone

    Read excerpt

    Hard conversations rarely get easier when we dump everything into them at once — the facts, the frustration, the history, the assumptions, and everything we wish the other person understood. In this episode of Unbreakable Woman, Jewels shares a simple way to bring more clarity to difficult conversations without becoming cold, vague, or overly emotional. You’ll learn the 3-Bucket Framework: Facts — What actually happened? Feelings — What did it bring up in you? Ask — What needs to happen next? Be

You’ll hear how one leaking ceiling exposed the difference between visibility and takeover, and how a simple toner problem revealed something even more important

    Before You Fix It, Find Out What Actually Happened (opens the original)

    Episode notes

    Read excerpt

    “The patient is furious.” “Billing refuses to help us.” “Everybody is upset.” After 28 years of clinic management, I’ve learned that by the time a difficult conversation reaches the manager, you’re rarely hearing a recording. You’re hearing a version. And when you’re new to management, it’s easy to take that version and immediately go to work fixing it. In this episode of Unbreakable Woman, I’m sharing a simple leadership habit I call Check and Verify — how to separate what actually happened fr

    Everything Feels Important (opens the original)

    Episode notes · Neutral tone

    Read excerpt

    When every request feels urgent, your attention gets pulled in every direction. In this episode of Unbreakable Woman, Jewels shares a deeply personal moment from the clinic that exposed a hard truth: the things demanding your attention are not always the things that deserve it most. If you’re a new or accidental clinic manager who feels like your whole day belongs to whoever gets to you first, this episode will help you recognize the difference between being responsive and actually leading. You’
