Special Feature: SNACK Episodes
One of the most popular features of Thriving Practice is our unscripted "SNACK episodes" - intimate, behind-the-scenes conversations where Operations Manager Miranda Dorta turns the tables and interviews Tracy without any preparation or planning.
These episodes give listeners an authentic glimpse into Tracy's coaching approach and problem-solving process in real-time. Without knowing the questions in advance, Tracy responds the same way she does with private clients - creating an honest, unfiltered experience that reveals her methodology, thinking, and personality.
Listeners consistently report that SNACK episodes feel like "being in the room" during an actual coaching session, making them some of the highest-rated content in the podcast's 9-season run. If you want to understand what working with Tracy is really like before investing in coaching, start with a SNACK episode.
In this episode, Tracy breaks down her recent "Future-Proofing Healthcare Leadership in 2026" roundtable featuring Marc Chow (CEO of Santa Clara County Medical Association), Aaron Gold (strategic CFO), and Stephen Fogg (healthcare marketing strategist and AI innovation specialist). Despite approaching practice management from completely different angles - policy, finance, and innovation - all three experts confirmed the same fundamental truth about how to actually move forward when the ground keeps shifting.
