The First Baby Was a Business with Dr. Lacey Nevel

MP3•Episode home

Audrey sits down with Dr. Lacey Nevel to talk about the real mechanics of mothering, business, and nervous system stewardship. Lacey shares how she creates space to regulate (hello, nightly sauna sessions), why building team was non-negotiable after being literally bypassed as “the office manager,” and how Free Spirit Chiropractic functions as a community hub, not “just” a clinic. Together you explore parenting as shadow work, detaching so you can show up clean, and new offerings for women chiropractors who are navigating motherhood and a male-dominated profession.

We cover:

Nervous system stewardship in real life: how Lacey uses the sauna to detach, reset, and choose where to show up each day—“20 minutes of literally just detaching from everything.”
Why team matters (and the moment it became non-negotiable): a local chiropractor walked in and asked “Where’s the husband? Where’s the doctor?”—and Lacey decided that day to get help at the front desk and protect her role as doctor and owner.
Community as the heartbeat: Free Spirit is intentionally built as a gathering place—patients name “community” as their favorite part of the practice.
Roots & wiring: raised by a single-mom entrepreneur; “keep going” grit, Enneagram 7 creativity, and the “Gap and the Gain” realization about achievement cycles.
Parenting as shadow work: the invitation to address our stuff through our kids; why it’s easier to avoid discomfort and how it shows up anyway.
New work for women in chiropractic: a seminar and 1:1 coaching focused on intention, detachment, and showing up for yourself so you can show up for others—especially post-baby.
