I’ve learned that flow isn’t something you stumble into. It’s something you can create.
My catalyst question for you: how could you gamify your day so it feels lighter, more joyful, and filled with energy?
I believe creativity is a vital sign, one we all deserve to protect. If this sparks something for you, listen to the full episode (How a Halloween Costume Helped Me Create Flow on Demand) where I share how to clear chaos and design a life that helps you flourish.
I'm still busy clearing out the final remnants of my brick-and-mortar clinic, and I couldn't help but reverently pause at the iconic "Health Innate" sign that I made nearly 9 years ago. 🥲 (Fun fact: it is a faux metal sign made from foam board and creative painting techniques I learned on Pinterest. )
It was a full-circle moment. That name once reflected exactly what I believed: that health is innate in all of us. I was rooted in the premise that healthcare can be done differently-- without sacrificing our personality or soul.
I still believe this with my whole heart. But things evolve.
⭐️ I’ve traded in in-person visits for virtual ones.
⭐️ My services are dedicated to helping busy, overwhelmed women navigate their stress and perimenopause with grace, clarity and vitality.
⭐️ I am honored to mentor clinicians every week so they can reclaim their sanity and build a work/life masterpiece that's all their own.
⭐️ I published a humorous memoir of my journey from burnout to bliss.
⭐️ I am a grateful international speaker, expanding our view of the importance of creativity in a medical career
⭐️ I have a podcast that lets me geek out about all my favorite things (time alchemy, membership models, creativity, and innovative healthcare changes)
My practice has matured into something deeper, more aligned, and more me. (So has the name: Dr. Lara Salyer, DO, IFMCP)
Growth is expected. So why do we forget to update the story our websites tell? 😬
Your homepage is often the first introduction to your work. But for many of us, it’s frozen in time. It might still reflect an older version of your services, style, or ideal patient—one that doesn’t resonate anymore. I know mine does.
This truth bomb might hurt a bit: our websites deserve an annual refresh. 🧹
Your Action Step: Take 10 minutes this week to look at your own website with fresh eyes.
Does your homepage…
✅ Describe the real problem your patients face?
✅ Describe characteristics of your current ideal client (not the one from 5 years ago)?
✅ Clearly articulate your offer or solution?
✅ Include a powerful headline or tagline?
✅ Show high-quality, updated imagery that feels like you?
✅ Include an obvious, friendly call-to-action?
Check out the FIND module and review my checklist of a high-impact, patient-centric website and give yourself permission to tweak, delete, or overhaul. It doesn’t have to be a full rebrand. Tiny edits can create massive clarity. https://buff.ly/0gvTCQw

🌱 Treatments have bigger impact
📩 Fewer portal messages
🎥 Easy-to-repurpose content for courses
🤝 Patients build self-reliance + peer support

I’ve done it too.
As a physician and mentor, I see how often women in medicine sacrifice their own joy for everyone else.
A dance class, a paint night, even a simple walk can get pushed aside the moment life demands more.
But if we abandon play, we abandon a vital part of ourselves. If this resonates, I invite you to watch or listen to the full episode (How a Halloween Costume Helped Me Create Flow on Demand) where I share how to bring flow and creativity back into your life.
How might your days look if your calendar held space for wonder and curiosity, not just obligations?
In this episode, I share how that experience opened my eyes to the bigger question of why joy matters so much in medicine and in life, and why so many of us, especially women in medicine and working moms, tend to abandon it.
In This Episode I'm Talking About:
✅ Self-Abandonment and the Need for Play
✅ Flow Enhancers vs. Flow Disruptors
✅ Practical Tools to Protect Your Flow

SERVICES FOR PROFESSIONALS: My audacious goal is to inspire a half million health professionals to practice creativity daily. Creativity is a conduit to intuitive thought. As a physician who moved through burnout into bliss by tapping into the healing power of creativity myself, I feel an enthusiastic need to show others how #creativitymatters. Studies demonstrate those that nurture their creativity will experience more happiness, lower stress levels, and greater grounded authenticity. Creativity is simply a brain activation pattern. Neuroplasticity is influenced by nutrition. Put all of this together with over 400 clinical references and Right Brain Rescue (www.rightbrainrescue.com) was launched in 2018. This online “creativity incubator” has since grown to include much more.
