In this episode, we tackle one of the most common—and overwhelming—questions new dentists face: "Now what?" After dental school, the clinical foundation is there—but the business side often feels unclear, scattered, and reactive. Many dentists jump from course to course, system to system, trying to fix everything at once. But without a clear starting point and sequence, progress stalls—and frustration builds. We discuss what actually matters first when building the business side of a practice—from leadership and culture to metrics, systems, and accountability. You'll learn how to cut through the noise, focus on what drives results, and create a structured path forward. If you want clarity, direction, and a smarter way to grow your practice without wasting time or energy, this episode will challenge how you think about getting started. What You'll Learn • Why most new dentists feel stuck when approaching the business side • The biggest mistake: trying to fix everything at once • Why leadership—not systems—is the true starting point • How to identify the right metrics to track first • The importance of sequencing your business improvements • How to move from reactive decisions to intentional growth Special Thanks to Our Sponsors:

Phil Svitek checks in after a busy January in LA—sharing a big progress update on The Arbiters (storyboards through Act 1, concept design ramp-up, and how he's keeping momentum while conversations with studios/distributors evolve). He also recaps working Grammys week (Grammy House + the digital/YouTube clip operation), reflects on ideas from Open Socrates about seeing the best in people and using criticism productively, then fires off quick, practical tips: record clean podcast audio, check out MIFA's new online option, explore Cinando's modernized website, and don't screw up objective requirements on client work. He wraps with a blunt take on AI CEOs needing clearer problem-solving goals, plus a nostalgic love letter to The Mummy trilogy (and curiosity about a fourth film).

In this episode of Speed This Week, the Crew Chief and driver Trey Rice dig into one of the most uncomfortable—but necessary—conversations in modern NASCAR: how sponsorship, social media value, and image influence who gets opportunities behind the wheel. The discussion centers on Toni Breidinger's eight-race Truck Series deal, breaking down whether today's racing landscape prioritizes performance, funding, visibility, or some combination of all three. The guys keep it honest as they unpack how sponsorship dollars, influencer reach, and competitive results really shape driver careers at every level of the sport.The episode also looks ahead to Daytona and the NASCAR season opener, including why the Duel races matter more than ever, which drivers are fighting for open spots, and how teams balance risk versus survival before the green flag even drops. From Truck Series depth to Cup Series pressure, plus a detour into NIL chaos in college sports and why checks and balances are long overdue, this episode blends racing insight with blunt reality. If you want a real look at where NASCAR—and sports as a whole—is headed, this is one you don't want to miss.

Step into Episode 190 of On the Delo as David DeLorenzo sits down with longtime friend and Arizona hospitality pro Tiffany for a candid conversation about life behind the bar, responsible service, mental health, and launching a new industry-driven concept in downtown Mesa. From nearly two decades in restaurants and bars to opening “The Walk In” while navigating new motherhood, Tiffany pulls back the curtain on what it really takes to care for guests, protect your team, and still protect your own energy. If you're in hospitality, own a bar or restaurant, or just love the Arizona beer community, this one gives you real-world perspective and practical takeaways you can use right now.Hear how Tiffany went from a 19-year-old hostess at Native New Yorker in Tempe to a respected leader in Arizona's craft beer scene, shaping programs at spots like Cornish Pasty, Postino Gilbert, and The Sleepy Whale. She breaks down the psychology of reading guests, the art and “mama bear” finesse of cutting someone off, and why hospitality that feels like family is the only way to stand out when people are more selective than ever about where they spend their money. The conversation also dives into how therapy, boundaries, lifting, early mornings, and porch coffee help her manage burnout and stay grounded in an industry that often expects you to be “on” no matter what's happening in your own life.You'll also get an inside look at The Walk In, the new “grandma's basement” bar Tiffany is opening in a historic basement space in downtown Mesa with partners Chris Rogers and Thad Krosky. Think cozy couches, wood paneling, beer neons, beer, natural wine, vinyl nights, and a serious non-alcoholic program designed for people who want the full experience without the booze. Tiffany shares the real startup journey: losing their first dream Tempe location, regrouping with help from community and a strong broker, finding the former Sun Devil Liquor basement and its old cellar “relics,” and deciding they don't have to settle for anything less than the right space.Chapter Guide (Timestamps):(0:00 - 2:40) Saturday Morning Vibes and Episode 190 Intro(2:41 - 5:56) Tiffany's Start in Hospitality: Native New Yorker, ASU, and Falling in Love with the Industry(5:57 - 12:40) Psychology Behind the Bar: Reading Guests, Responsible Service, and Care Over Transactions(12:41 - 18:21) Arizona Beer Community: Hospitality, Storytelling, and Surviving a Changing Market(18:22 - 23:58) Building The Walk In: Concept, Partners, Mental Health Focus, and Learning the Business Side(23:59 - 30:38) Losing a Location, Finding a Basement: Tempe Setbacks, Downtown Mesa, and Not Settling(30:39 - 37:56) Non-Alcoholic Programs, Mental Wellness, Therapy, and Coping Without the Crutch of Alcohol(37:57 - 43:21) Motherhood, Support Systems, Arizona Roots, and Raising Riley in Hospitality(43:22 - 47:24) Rapid Fire: Music, Tattoos, Aliens, Gold Shows, and Strength Inside and Outside the Bar(47:25 - 48:39) What's Next: Copper State Beer Festival and Built Different Community Invite

Most physicians dream of independence but dread the isolation and heavy lift of running a solo practice. What if there were a way to share infrastructure, lighten the load, and still maintain your autonomy? In this episode, Dr. Disha Spath sits down with special interviewer Dr. Dan Sooriabalan and guest Dr. Natalie Gentile to explore how managed services organizations (MSOs) can strengthen direct primary care practices. From sharing cross-coverage to negotiating employer contracts, she shares how she and her partner built a collaborative model that supports physicians while keeping patient care personal.  This conversation is packed with lessons on leadership, partnership, and building something bigger than yourself! Key Topics Covered: 1. The Hidden Price of 401K Breaking down what a managed services organization is and why it matters for direct primary care. 2. From Vaccine Clinics to Direct Primary Care Collaboration How grassroots community efforts during the pandemic sparked the creation of Pittsburgh's first DPC-focused MSO. 3. Shared Pain Points, Shared Solutions Cross-coverage, marketing, vaccine acquisition, mentorship—how an MSO makes solo practice less lonely. 4. The Business Side of Medicine Legal guardrails, employer contracts, and the financial realities of keeping physician ownership at the center. 5. Scaling Without Selling Out Why Natalie and her co-founder built their MSO without private equity—and how they're keeping it mission-driven. 6. Not a One-Size-Fits All Why MSOs aren't one-size-fits-all and what to consider before starting one in your own region. Listener Takeaways: MSOs (Managed Services Organizations) give DPC doctors shared infrastructure—like marketing, cross-coverage, and legal support—without sacrificing independence. Collaboration often starts with small, local initiatives (like community vaccine clinics) before scaling into sustainable models.

"I hope you enjoy this Season encore series. Have a great summer!" Episode 3.13 | Originally Released: March 9, 2023 In this episode, Dr. Shaminder (Shammi) Gupta joins David to discuss his career path, the impact of Hurricane Katrina on that path, and what he is learning from being a business executive as well as a clinician. Shammi begins with his background – where he grew up, what got him interested in medicine why he gravitated to internal medicine & nephrology. He explains why his first job out of training was not a fit for him and how hurricane Katrina changed his path completely – as it did for many living in New Orleans at the time – opening up a career path he would not have considered otherwise. Shammi also covers how he built a significant dialysis practice in a smaller town setting, became president of the Kidney Foundation, and built a reputation throughout the state.  This led to his practice being acquired by Monogram Health, where he works today as an executive and clinician. Shammi then shares what he is learning from the “business side” of medicine, as he builds out a multi-state medical platform for kidney health, and describes the value CEOs see in physicians who can communicate well and know their field of medicine intimately.  Next, David gets Shammi's insights on wealth management, including building the right advisor team and why to potentially change advisors as you grow, and Shammi concludes with his three pieces of advice for fellow physicians, especially those starting out.

“Most artists are told they'll never make a living from their work. Tim Packer is living proof that's a lie. A former police officer turned celebrated Canadian artist, Tim walked away from a badge and a pension to chase a dream—and built a thriving art business that's both creatively fulfilling and financially successful. Today, through his Tim Packer Art Academy and new book You Can Sell Your Art, Tim is mentoring a new wave of artists to do the same.Tim's Website YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/timpackerfineartsLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/timpacker1/1. From the Badge to the Brush“Tim, let's start with your backstory—what was the moment when you realized you had to walk away from police work and fully commit to your art? What fears did you face, and how did you overcome them?”2. Why Talent is Overrated“You say that talent is a myth and that success in art isn't about being ‘born with it.' What do you believe actually sets successful artists apart—and what are most creatives getting wrong?”3. The Missing Curriculum“You've said the traditional art school system is broken. What are the most important things you had to learn outside the classroom about building a sustainable career—and how do you teach that in your academy?”4. The Business Side of the Brush“Let's talk dollars. Pricing art is something many creatives struggle with. What's your philosophy on pricing, and how can artists overcome the fear of ‘asking too much' or ‘selling out'?”5. Building a Creative Empire“From originals and prints to your online academy and now your book, you've built a multi-million dollar art business. What's your advice to artists who want to think bigger and diversify their income streams—while still staying true to their creative voice?”Sponsor Shout-Out:“Today's episode is brought to you by White Cloud Coffee Roasters.

My guests today are Alex Pall and Drew Taggart, who you might know as The Chainsmokers. We explore their fascinating evolution from scrappy DJs to global superstars to serious venture capitalists with their fund Mantis. Drew and Alex share how the same high-touch, relationship-driven approach that built their music empire now defines their investment philosophy. Their framework for backing founders mirrors their artistic process: they invest in obsessive individuals who will pursue their vision regardless of external validation, much like how they've remained authentic to their sound despite industry pressures. We discuss parallels between creative iteration in music and venture investing, particularly around managing failure, maintaining intentionality in an age of abundance, and the importance of taste as a differentiating factor.
