Introduction:
"Hello, everyone! In the spirit of the season, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to our listeners worldwide. Today, we have a special episode – a heartfelt message and a year in review. As the holiday season slows things down, I wanted to take a moment to connect with each of you."
Year-End Reflection:
"This year has been truly remarkable for us at the State of Chiropractic. We've expanded into new countries, built essential infrastructure, and taken on more responsibilities. The chiropractic community has recognized our role as the legal arm of the profession, and we're honored to push forward for the rights of chiropractors globally."
Contributor Update and New Initiatives:
"While our contributor base plateaued this year, we're doubling down in 2024. Excitingly, we're bringing on a Director of Operations to enhance our effectiveness. Restructuring is underway to streamline our processes. Despite challenges, we're ready to tackle the issues at hand and introduce new names and personalities to the team."
Country-Specific Strategies:
United States: "We're persistently working with the military to secure chiropractic access for active-duty personnel. Our revised strategy for 2024 aims to accelerate progress. Additionally, we're addressing animal chiropractic issues and diving into insurance-based challenges to fight for chiropractors' rights."
Canada: "In Ontario, battles continue against regulatory overreach. Our focus in British Columbia involves countering Bill 36 and addressing x-ray issues. We're working collaboratively to protect the freedoms of our chiropractors."
Australia: "Operation Free Speech is making headway, challenging marketing regulations. Legal efforts are underway against Safer Care Victoria, addressing repercussions and holding decision-makers accountable."
Global Expansion: "We're looking to expand into Norway and South Africa, broadening our impact. In New Zealand, we're deconstructing restrictive elements from the former regime, working towards opening up chiropractic."
Vision for 2024:
"As we approach 2024, I challenge you to see things from a new perspective. It's a year to break out, take control of our reality, and stand against organizations misusing their authority. Our successes this year show that chiropractic is no longer passive – we're challenging the status quo."
Closing Thoughts:
"I'm grateful for your support. As we shut down for the holiday season, know that we're ready to rock and roll in the new year. Expect exciting developments and challenges ahead. Together, let's break through the chains that hold us back and move closer to making chiropractic the number one healthcare choice in the world. Merry Christmas, have an incredible New Year, and I can't wait to continue this journey with you in 2024. God bless you all. We'll talk to you in a couple of weeks."
