The interview
What was your practice like before finding Perfect Practice?
Before I found Perfect Practice, my practice was not that great. I'm not good with the technology. So I was struggling a lot. How to even start my website, to be honest. How to start the whole business process.
How did you first discover Sachin Patel and the program?
I was talking to a physician who does functional medicine practice. She said, you need to find a mentor and maybe you should give a call to Sachin Patel. I googled and I found his book, Perfect Practice. I read the whole book and I said, yeah, this is the right person for me to reach out.
How has your lifestyle changed since joining the mentorship?
My lifestyle has drastically changed because, first of all, I got this emotional freedom. I was terrified before I met Sachin. Also, I learned so many things that I could handle most of it online, virtually. I have elderly parents and I was able to spend time with them even when I go to India; I could stay a few more weeks because I was able to work from there.
What business models did you implement with Sachin's guidance?
Initially I had like one-on-one clients. Then I introduced a membership model, which did wonders. But I had to focus more on the programs at the end to get additional income. Sachin was really instrumental in terms of guiding me on how to do the programs; it would have been otherwise impossible to do without that support.
What was the most surprising part of the mentorship experience?
What surprised me the most is I didn't expect a mentor to be so friendly. Sachin was amazing, a very friendly person and very nice. Good at heart. He's very easily approachable, and I didn't expect that he would work with me so easily.
How did the program impact your confidence as a provider?
Sachin empowered me with the tools that I needed to practice and all the virtual practice. Without those tools, it would have been impossible. And also I was more confident. That is a very important thing when you start your own practice, because there's so much work and so many struggles you have to go through.
What specific 'freedoms' have you achieved through the program?
Perfect Practice helped me with lot of the five freedoms. The most important for me is geographic freedom. These programs gave me the geographic freedom and emotional freedom, time freedom, and financial freedom. Everything came when I started the virtual programs.
