Thank you for joining us for our 2nd Cabral HouseCall of the weekend!   I'm looking forward to sharing with you some of our community's questions that have come in over the past few weeks…   Amy: Hi Dr Cabral. Many thanks for all that you do for this community! I'd love your advice on anal fissures. I had one recently that had begun healing. My doctor gave me Diltiazem/Lidocaine cream that I used 2x day and my fissure closed and developed healing/scar tissue. However, less than 2 months later, it's opened again. His suggestions previously involved either Botox injections or surgery if the cream had not worked and I would prefer to try and address it more naturally. Do you have any suggestions about what I can do to get this fissure to heal and stay healed naturally? I'm working on diet/fiber but that doesn't seem to be enough. One bad bout of constipation and it seems to undo anything I've done to help. Thanks!       Anonymous: Hi Dr. Cabral. This is a bit of an intimate question. I'm having some sort of reaction after I have sexual intercourse. I get a prickly, itchy, warm sensation in my vagina, on my legs and stomach. Sometimes red bumps appear on my skin. Almost like I'm having an allergic reaction. Symptoms continue on and off for about 3 or 4 days then everything calms down and goes back to normal. It seems to happen more around ovulation and menstruation but recently happening anytime of the month. Any idea what is happening to me and what I can do to heal it?! To note, I'm 40 years old, still getting regular periods. Thank you for your help!       Mke: Hi Dr Cabral, would love your thoughts. I have known for a year I've had silicosis & PMF (progressive massive fibrosis) I was misdiagnosed for the last 15 years they've told me I've had sarcoidosis. My wife is an IHP, and we have been doing foundational protocols/DNS/detoxes/heavy metal detox/saunas/coffee enemas etc for the past 3 years. I have a very physical job and do keep my cardio fitness up, which seems to help my breathing. We have just invested in a home soft shell hyperbaric chamber after speaking to a guy in the US who's lung function has dramatically improved (he has silicosis but not PMF) as well as investing in a rife machine. Do you have any advice, thoughts or info on slowing down or reversing scarring or anything that might help?       Jamie: My daughter, nearly seven, has developed severe hay fever this year in the UK. She is constantly sneezing, has dark circles under her eyes, looks exhausted for almost three months, and her sleep, breathing, concentration and focus seem affected. She may also have a mild dairy intolerance, possibly linked to eczema in her inner elbows, though otherwise she is active and well. We also suspect slightly restricted sinus passages and mouth-breathing, and are considering seeing a functional-medicine-style dentist to support facial/skull development. Could you advise on practical ways to help her and whether any allergy or other tests would be worthwhile at her age to identify the root cause? Any initial guidance hugely welcome. Massive thank you to you your family and your team.      Sarah: Last year I was diagnosed with stage 4 grade 3 endometrial cancer. I underwent six rounds of chemotherapy: Paclitaxel and carboplatin along with immunotherapy; jemperli. I also had a complete hysterectomy after the third round. Prior to treatment I had regular bowel movements. Now they are loose and very dark brown. I have very limited resources currently. What do you suggest I do to heal my gut?    Thank you for tuning into this weekend's Cabral HouseCalls and be sure to check back tomorrow for our Mindset & Motivation Monday show to get your week started off right! - - - Show Notes and Resources: StephenCabral.com/3796 - - - Get a FREE Copy of Dr. Cabral's Book: The Rain Barrel Effect - - - Join the Community & Get Your Questions Answered: CabralSupportGroup.com - - - Dr. Cabral's Most Popular At-Home Lab Tests: > Complete Minerals & Metals Test (Test for mineral imbalances & heavy metal toxicity) - - - > Complete Candida, Metabolic & Vitamins Test (Test for 75 biomarkers including yeast & bacterial gut overgrowth, as well as vitamin levels) - - - > Complete Stress, Mood & Metabolism Test (Discover your complete thyroid, adrenal, hormone, vitamin D & insulin levels) - - - > Complete Food Sensitivity Test (Find out your hidden food sensitivities) - - - > Complete Omega-3 & Inflammation Test (Discover your levels of inflammation related to your omega-6 to omega-3 levels) - - - Get Your Question Answered On An Upcoming HouseCall: StephenCabral.com/askcabral - - - Would You Take 30 Seconds To Rate & Review The Cabral Concept?

With so many neuromodulators on the market, it's easy to assume the product is what determines the outcome. In reality, that's only part of the story.In this episode of Plastic Surgery Uncensored, board-certified plastic surgeon Dr. Rady Rahban is joined by aesthetic nurse Charlene for a comprehensive discussion on Botox, Dysport, Xeomin, Daxxify, and the growing world of neuromodulators. Together, they explain how these products work, what distinguishes them from one another, and why the skill and judgment of the injector often have a far greater impact than the name on the vial.From forehead lines and crow's feet to masseters, gummy smiles, neck bands, and lip flips, this conversation explores the most common treatment areas while separating evidence-based medicine from today's aesthetic trends.If you've ever considered Botox—or simply want to better understand what these treatments can and can't do—this episode is an honest, practical guide to achieving natural, balanced results through a conservative approach.✨ If you enjoyed this episode of Plastic Surgery Uncensored:✔️ Subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen.✔️ Rate & Review—your feedback helps more people find us.✔️ Follow Dr. Rady Rahban across all platforms for daily insights, behind-the-scenes, and patient education:Instagram: @drradyrahbanTikTok: @radyrahbanMDYouTube: @Rady RahbanFacebook: @Rady Rahban✔️ Share this episode with someone considering plastic surgery—the right knowledge can save a life.

From GLP-1s to Botox to testosterone therapy, body-altering decisions are more normalized than ever, but what does it actually look like to process those decisions as a married couple through a Biblical lens? In this episode, Derek, Gabrielle, and Andrew tackle the theology behind how we think about our bodies and why those decisions are never just about you.DISCUSSION QUESTIONS- When it comes to decisions about your body — diet, supplements, cosmetic procedures, medical interventions — do you tend to make those decisions together or independently? Why?- Andrew mentioned that working out became an idol for him at one point. Are there any areas of health or appearance where you sense you might be seeking something beyond physical wellbeing?- Gabrielle shared that she had gotten into careless patterns with her appearance without thinking about why. Are there any habits you have around your body or appearance that you've never really examined?- Derek mentioned that influences around us constantly try to make us discontent with how we look. Who or what are you allowing to shape how you feel about your body — and is it trustworthy?- Is there any area of your body or health that feels like an "off-limits" topic in your marriage — something you wouldn't want your spouse to weigh in on? What might that be telling you?- Cooper wrote scriptures in the shower for Gabrielle during a season of body insecurity. How are you actively speaking truth over your spouse in the way they feel about themselves?

That softer jaw and heavier under-eye you meet in the mirror most mornings usually isn't new fat, and it isn't only sagging. A lot of it is fluid that pooled overnight in a system that only really moves when you do. In this episode, I  break down why your face puffs while you sleep, what menopause has to do with it, and the honest truth about what facial massage can and can't do. Then I  give  you the one move most people get backwards, so the rest of your routine finally works. In this episode: Why your lymphatic system has no central pump like your heart, and what that means for your morning face The difference between a real morning depuff and the "facelift" claims that oversell it Where to start, and it isn't your face, so fluid actually has somewhere to drain The full step-by-step routine, plus a diagram of the actual moves, is in this week's article inside the Skin Scholar Society.  Listen above, then go grab the guide.   I'm a Menopause Skin Specialist and Master Esthetician with 16+ years of hands-on practice, helping women recalibrate their skincare to restore firmness, clarity, and glow without Botox or fillers.  

Send us Fan MailWhen was the last time you actually saw your own doctor? If you just cringed a little, you are exactly who this episode is for.I take care of a lot of physicians in my practice, and I have heard every version of the story: self-prescribed thyroid meds, skipped physicals, and a very impressive collection of coping strategies that are working just well enough to keep going. I get it because I live it too. But there are things I say to my patients, including my physician patients, that I want to say directly to you.In this episode I walk through 10 things I would tell you if I was sitting across from you in the exam room. Some of them are the basics you already know and are not doing. Some of them are the harder truths about rest, stress, and the lie we have all been sold about what it means to handle everything. And one of them is about Botox, because we need to have that conversation.This is not a lecture.

Send us Fan MailIn this special episode of Skin Anarchy, Dr. Ekta Yadav sits down with Dr. Jean Carruthers MD, FRCSC, FRC(Ophth), the pioneer of cosmetic botox, world Renowned cosmetic surgeon & award winning researcher. What began as an unexpected patient interaction ultimately changed the way the world thinks about facial aging, leading to the development of cosmetic botulinum toxin treatments that continue to shape the field today.Dr. Carruthers reflects on the remarkable journey from treating patients with functional eye disorders to recognizing an entirely new application for botulinum toxin. At a time when cosmetic options for expression lines were limited, the idea of selectively relaxing muscles to soften wrinkles represented a completely new approach. Yet the path from observation to acceptance was far from easy. Early presentations were met with skepticism, and it was rigorous research, clinical evidence, and persistence that ultimately transformed a controversial idea into one of the most extensively studied treatments in aesthetic medicine.Throughout the conversation, Dr. Carruthers emphasizes the role of curiosity in scientific discovery. Many breakthroughs, she explains, emerge not from certainty but from paying attention to unexpected outcomes and asking better questions. That mindset continues to guide her perspective on the future of aesthetics, from preventative treatments and regenerative medicine to emerging technologies that may change how outcomes are measured and understood.More than a history lesson, this episode offers a rare glimpse into the mindset behind true innovation. Listen to the full episode to hear Dr. Jean Carruthers share the story behind the discovery that revolutionized aesthetics, her perspective on the future of regenerative medicine, and why the most important tool in science may be an open mind.Read about Dr. Jean CarruthersDon't forget to subscribe to Skin Anarchy on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or your preferred platform.Reach out to us through email with any questions.Sign up for our newsletter!Shop all our episodes and products mentioned through our ShopMy Shelf!Support the show

Sami Miro is the founder of Sami Miro Vintage, a Creative Director, and CFDA Vogue Fashion Fund finalist whose innovative approach to fashion merges circular design, emerging AI, and ethical production. During our conversation, Sami discusses how her sense of self was shaped early, growing up mixed-race (Black, French, and Russian) in San Francisco, raised solely by her father who reminded her of her inherent beauty. Sami's style is incredibly unique, and in our conversation we talk about style differences between New York and LA, the beauty of individual style, and how vintage helped Sami find her voice, her style, and ultimately her career.Today, her zero-waste collaborations with brands like Levi's and Nike, her dressing of Beyoncé and her 29 dancers on the Cowboy Carter Tour, and her work with the 2024 US Olympic gymnastics team prove that fashion and sustainability are not at odds, they are inextricably linked.

Warum wollen wir schön sein? Und warum beschäftigt uns unser Aussehen oft mehr, als wir zugeben möchten?Mit der Journalistin und Autorin Rabea Weihser spreche ich über Schönheit als gesellschaftliche Währung, über Social Media, Botox, Schönheitsideale und die Frage, wer eigentlich davon profitiert, dass wir ständig an uns arbeiten sollen. Wir sprechen über das Älterwerden, über Attraktivität, weibliche Selbstbestimmung und darüber, warum es so schwer ist, sich von bestimmten Erwartungen zu lösen.Ein Gespräch über Privilegien, Sehnsüchte, Unsicherheiten – und die Freiheit, sich irgendwann wichtiger zu nehmen als sein Spiegelbild.Mehr zu Rabea Weihser:Rabea Weihser bei Instagramwww.rabeaweihser.deWie wir so schön wurden.

Re-releasing a Dental A-Team favorite… Ladies and gents, he's back. Dr. Dave Moghadam is again on the podcast, this time to talk with Kiera about quarterly team calibration. While there's no silver bullet A-to-Z cookbook for how to operate a practice, an outline certainly helps. Dr. Moghadam shares his outline for setting up the ideal quarterly calibration meeting: Start with the why (review practice's mission, vision, and values) Align over treatment, planning, and diagnosis Review what makes your practice stand out To keep things exciting each quarter, Kiera and Dr. Moghadam also chat about ways to shake up the meeting. Episode resources: Subscribe to The Dental A-Team podcast Schedule a Practice Assessment Leave us a review Transcript: Kiera Dent (00:00) Hello, Dental A Team listeners. This is Kiera. And today we are bringing you something so special. I am so excited because this is one of our most popular episodes from the archives. Whether you're hearing this for the first time or catching it again, I am so excited because it's jam packed with a ton of takeaways that you can start using right now in your practice. We have released thousands, literally thousands of episodes. And I wanted to start bringing a few of these amazing episodes back for you. So I hope you enjoy. And as always, thanks for listening and I'll catch you next time.   on the Dental A Team podcast.   speaker-0 (00:32) and you guys, I am so jazzed to welcome back one of my favorite doctors, an office that we coach, and he just thinks outside the box.   This man is brilliant. He's grown a ton. I'm so proud of him. We've worked with him for quite a while. So welcome back to the show, Dr. Dave Moghadam. How are you?   speaker-1 (00:47) I'm doing wonderful Kiera. Thanks for having me. Super excited to be there.   speaker-0 (00:50) my gosh, absolutely. Well, when we were doing our last podcast, you were somebody that I just admire. One, you're a doctor. So you give a different perspective than I do. Two, you're brilliant. And three, you've got lots of cool topics that I'm excited to share. So I am Jazz. When we were on our last podcast, you came up with a few more. Today you just came up with another one. Guys, I will tease that one out. It's not today's podcast, but we will do it again. It's gonna be I T F U. So I hope you guys are excited for that.   I'm excited.   speaker-1 (01:17) That's the the closest I think I can get you to swearing.   speaker-0 (01:20) It   is the closest. but today we're gonna kind of dive into team quarterly calibration, which Dave, I will say, is probably one of my top doctors that thinks in systems, but not just thinks, actually executes. And you see massive growth and evolvement of your team. You were one of the offices who literally called me during COVID and said, Kiera, I'm gonna train my hygienist. What do you have on hygiene training? And I was like, Who are you? Fantastic. We have our hygiene training course. Like, here you go.   Try it out. We're beta testing right now anyway. But kind of let's take it away, Dave, on this team quarterly calibration because it's so needed. And I love that you've actually created a system around it that you've proven to be effective in your practices.   speaker-1 (01:59) Yeah, for sure. So I actually I I got the idea from another office that you work with that's in up upstate New York. Wonderful, amazing doctor. Really, I mean, really, really just drives home that aspect of really just thinking outside the box, having a crazy drive and really just executing. Really has a wonderful team in place there. Let's be real.   speaker-0 (02:20) He's   far away. Dave, you know he's far away. And I'm gonna say this like out loud because I know exactly who you're talking about. And I actually mentioned this to another doctor I was talking to today, and I said, let's be real. He's far away, and I visit him four times a year. Like we're talking opposite coast from me. And I said, and I truthfully do it because this man I think is such a brilliant leader, and I selfishly go to coach them to learn from him. So agreed, like just massive kudos want to bring this on. And you were mentioning he had a word document.   He's just brilliant and I'm so jazzed that you took some things that he did and spun it to your own. And I wanna point out, everybody listening, take what Dave's gonna share. He took it from somebody else. I don't think there's anything wrong in taking items, mimicking them, mirroring them, and recreating them for your practice. So please, please, please, like do exactly what Dave did. Take it and shout out to that office in New York. Thanks for paving the way for so many great ideas.   speaker-1 (03:14) Yeah, I mean, absolutely. I think that's the best thing. I think when we all go ahead and, you know, take take ideas and expand on them and share them back and forth, you know, things really kind of get going. I'm always happy to, you know, help help out others in in the same way. But at the end of the day, I've tried to explain to people that I've shared, you know, a lot of my systems, my processes, my my things with is just because it's it good for me doesn't mean that it's gonna be good for you. You have to do the work, not because I want you to not, you know.   reap the the rewards of this, but because it it has to fit for your office and it has there needs to be some some ownership, some authorship from from your team and how things work as well. So I mean taking the concepts and expanding on them and making your own is gonna be the key in, you know, anything that we're gonna talk about today or just in in general, really.   speaker-0 (04:00) Totally agree. And Dave, you just drove home a really, really good point because I don't think that there actually is a plug and play. I don't think you go to the store, buy a system, come back to your practice and say, Okay, let's put it in, put the batteries in, read the instructions. I genuinely think, like you said, it's a concept, it's an idea that then needs to be transformed into your own practice. And I think so many offices get frustrated that they don't see momentum because they literally try to say, like, well, this is what Dave did. So take it, move it into my practice and hope that it goes on autopilot.   But they don't realize the countless hours you put in to making this work for your practice. So I love, love, love. And I hope all you guys heard that because I'll give you guys systems all day long on this podcast. It's what we do. We come to your practices and do it. Bottom line is there's a reason we don't have an A to Z cookbook as a consulting company. I don't believe it works. I believe you have to customize it to your practice to get momentum.   speaker-1 (04:49) You   can have an you can have an outline because even even even with making this, I mean, spoiler alert, like I made this, but then you know, six months later, a year later, like, you know what? Like, we should probably do this like this. It's a never ending, it's a never ending thing. It's just the way that things go. And I don't mean that in a bad way. I mean it's it's one of those things as you you grow and you learn. And the other thing that we'll get to is as as your team becomes more comfortable and they start to go ahead and give   their input about things, that's when it really kind of, you know, starts to hit its straw.   speaker-0 (05:20) Right, right. I agree. So we've teased it up enough, guys. So we've got this awesome team quarterly calibration. So Dave, kinda take it away again, and like you said, this is this is as of today, but I promise you, give Dave six months to a year and it will look it will look different. It will be fine tuned again. so I'm excited. Take us away.   speaker-1 (05:40) Yeah, so I I think the first thing is like ever every office, you know, in starting to create, you know, why you're there, what you're doing, all that stuff. In in one way or another, you sit down and you and you figure out your mission, your vision, your core values, like all these key concepts in, you know, any business. And that was something that we did really early on, as I was actually five, five years ago, probably right about now when this podcast is gonna air. first thing I did is I sat down and we kind of all talked together about what   What are we going to do? Why are we going to do it? You know, why are we here? So kind of reviewing those key concepts. And we we kind of cycle through, you know, reviewing those things on a weekly basis, but it's a good time to kind of highlight that in the beginning. of like, well, why are we here? What are we actually trying to do? Why are we going to make the decisions that we make on a daily basis? So that's the first thing. The other thing is like, well, what are the practice philosophies? Like, how are we going to treat and plan? Why are we doing things in that way? You know, this kind of stems off of that. And then   you know, we move towards, you know, in discussing things with patients, what's the way we're going to do that? You know, so the key concepts I always kind of bring out is, you know, what do we see? You know, what's going to happen if it's if it's not treated? What are the best options that, you know, you we can give somebody? And, you know, why is that better than other options? You know, so these are always the key points that I I want in the back of, you know, our team's mind when we we're talking about situations and things that we see.   And then other than that, I mean, I think it's two other big, big topics here. You know, what conditions, you know, are we going to encounter? And you know, how are we going to discuss those things and what is treatment planning generally like? And then what makes our office special? You know, really highlighting those things, like talking about these concepts. So this is, even though it was only a few minutes that I just went through that, if we're going to really go through everything in detail here, I mean that's a it's it's a couple hours. and   I mean, the point I'll I'll I'll get to here is, you know, maybe the first, second, third time, great, but at the end of the day, sometimes it becomes a lot. So you have to kinda eventually figure out ways, well, how are we going to mix things up? Because if you're lucky enough to continue to have the same team there for a long time, you're all gonna be sitting there twiddling your thumbs, being like, Okay, like I get it, but you know what's going on.   speaker-0 (07:46) Yeah, no, you're exactly right. And I think that that's why a lot of people love us because we'll bring in and shake things up and add some excitement. Cause you're right, it can get monotonous and tedious. But that doesn't mean because it becomes monotonous and tedious that we shouldn't continue to do it. Just change how we're doing it, look for ways to innovate it, and make it even better. So if I broke that down, Dave, it sounds like we start with kind of the why. Why are we doing this? What are our core values? Let's assess that, make sure those are aligned because that's gonna be the   the launch pad, if you will, to the next level. Then it sounds like it was treatment, planning, how we're diagnosing things, making sure that's all aligned. And then the third piece would be on what makes us special, what makes us different, what's our wow factor, if you will. And those are kind of the three points. And please feel free to add in any gaps that I left out because I don't know your outline. So I'm I'm learning right along with the listeners, right?   speaker-1 (08:35) Yeah.   So I mean that that's the basics of it. The one thing that's kind of like a little bit misleading is like with the treatment plan and stuff like that. Like what I've done is kind of gone and I've gone off of that that doctor's kind of like general template and added more is like condition by condition. You know, so maybe like 10, 15, you know, things that you wanna list out. And you don't have to you're never gonna hit everything. You know, so you want to kind of get, you know, 80% of what we're you know, what are gonna encounter on a daily basis?   And I think the way to really think about this is the the concept that you guys really drive home very well is what would doctor do? Yep. That's kind of like this is like that on steroids. The problem is when you do that like this much, at a certain point it becomes kind of like hiring. So I think it's nice. We now we kind of quickly will go through some of this as a review, but I think a way that we could probably improve more is if let's say, you know, once a month or so I kind of just did a smattering of, you know, some examples like that to kind of just really freshen things up.   And a lot of times, you know, some of these things are like, yeah, these are the cool things that we're doing. But a lot of the pictures, a lot of the things that I share in this section is kind of like, hey, we thought it was going be like this, but guess what? It's like a bomb went off. Because I think it's very hard for somebody who's not, you know, in the the trenches in a sense, with a lot of these situations to really understand the extent which is actually helpful. Cause rather than, you know, let's say in in the the hygiene room, like   You know, when we're treatment planning, telling the patient, no problem, it's not going to be a big deal. We kind of say, you know, this is what it looks like in certain situations. We've seen things become like this, just you know, you know, so setting up that kind of worst case scenario, and that's like one of our and when we talk about like the philosophies that we talked about in the beginning, it's underpromise and over-delivered. Right. You know, we always want to talk about worst case scenario. We want to talk about the fact that, you know, in situations where we think that, you know,   further treatment like a root canal may be necessary. But that's that's a discussion even before an appointment is scheduled. Mm-hmm. That all has to be there. You know, it's nice to to to be positive and everything, but it's not nice when you you do that and then it's a it's a mess later.   speaker-0 (10:36) No, you're exactly right. And I, you know, my mind obviously went into system mode as you were talking. And I'm like, Dave, I got this great idea. take all your conditions and things that you look at, make them into twelve of them. Then every month on your quick check-in calibrations, you could have all twelve of those. So throughout the year you go through them and then each quarter you highlight maybe the three things you've gone over. That was my instant like, hey, this is how you could like keep it on a system on a regime.   or bring case studies every quarter that that you then would take because they've already learned for three months, then six months and n nine months and twelve months. but I I'm curious and I want to dive into the kind of nitty gritty of it. How do you set up these quarterly calibrations? Because I'm hearing like we want to talk about it, like you mentioned, like this treatment planning. It should be a discussion. but I also have watched and I know myself, I can sit and listen all day long.   But then when I'm asked to repeat or I'm asked to implement or I'm asked to talk about it, I go back to what I know. Even though I just heard it, I might catch one or two phrases. So do you role play it out? Is it more of a like C discussion and we all discuss how we're going to discuss like kind of walk me through what and do you do you block it out for a full day? Is this a one hour over lunch? Like, how does this kind of kind of look? I feel like I've got a general like outline of it, but then how do you actually execute on this?   speaker-1 (11:57) Yeah, so we'll so we'll we'll block out a a a couple hours, two or three hours, depending on you know the situation. Well, we and I've tried you know a bunch of different ways as far as like a lot of the things that you mentioned. I think the things that are that are most effective and most effective in general, which you know I used to do more so in the beginning, not so much right now, is really just kind of randomly like calling on people and kind of being like, Okay, like let's like this is the situation, like let's kind of talk it out. And it's a little uncomfortable at first, but it kind of, you know.   makes it really gets somebody involved in it. Now what I would do early on is kind of like pretend like you're you're the doctor. But what I've done to kind of mix it up a lot of times is kind of getting a couple of people involved where it's what it's fine. It's whatever their role is in the office, let's say in this situation, you know, sometimes we'll do that or we'll mix it up, but we try and go through the the different stages of let's say, you know, we found this as an emergency patient, let's say.   Yep. So you're gonna be the assistant, you're gonna be the doctor, and then you're gonna be the the front office person. You know what I'm saying? And kinda, you know, go through that step by step. So we can kind of work on the the workflow, like you know, the the basically the the timeline a patient would go would go through the office and everything in in that. So that is work well. Honestly, like as as I've done this longer and longer, sometimes it's just kinda like   It's like going through the motions and it's just kind of like, okay, you guys know this, let's go through this. And that really hasn't been so effective. So sometimes I'll kind of take a pause and I'll just even, you know, hop on you know, open dental and you know, think of like, okay, who have I seen like lately where this isn't just open up like the x-rays and kind of do examples like that. I think that's been a little bit more helpful. The hard thing is, I mean, it's you know, we're all busy. It takes a lot of time to try and go ahead and do all this stuff. But I think if I was able to get a little bit more   regimented in in mixing it up. But for the purposes of, you know, everybody listening, I think if you get a good, you know, outline together, you get things together, you know, this will afford you, you know, the ability to do this at least a couple of times and still be really effective. I blew the first handful of times I did it, even though it's like the same kind of thing, it's helpful and you you mix in some other stuff, but then it becomes kind of stale after a while. So you want to make sure you're bringing new examples or shaking things up or, you know, just kinda everybody kind of knows like, okay, yeah, we're gonna   calling you you randomly pay pay attention.   speaker-0 (14:14) Right. No, I love that. And it's funny that you said that because that's actually my trick in offices. People are always impressed that Kiera Dent can learn names very quickly in a practice. And I'm like, guys, the bottom line is the only reason, not the only, but one of the main driving reasons I learn names as soon as I go into a practice is one, people tend to like me a lot more if I remember their name. Two, I believe that if I'm gonna ask them to do something, I should at least know their name. And three is when I get to team meeting, you better believe I'm going to impress everyone and dazzle that I know your whole names.   But then I'm going to randomly call on every person and they're like, she now knows my name. So I think it's really wise. I was also thinking, Dave, it's fun to to hear your ideas and then also flip into consultant care mode too. And I'm like, gosh, like let's just take this and expand on it. some fun things for that excitement that making sure everyone's on their toes is you can actually like have them draw straws. So like here's the case study, everybody draws straws, and it's a doctor, it's a hygienist, it's a treatment coordinator and an assistant.   So they all have to draw straws and so it will if there's a natural excitement and terror and adrenaline rush real quick of here's the scenario, we're gonna role play this all the way through, draw straws of who's going to be who on this scenario. So then it's a constant shakeup. I also love the surprise and delight of asking people on the fly. But I really also love like and I was thinking like some way you could make this pretty simple for you quarterly is if you know that there's a a patient that that   you're working on that you're like, this would be a great example. Maybe have your assistant mark that appointment in red or something. So that way you are pulling those constantly, which I'm sure you're doing, but thinking of offices of like, how could you be building this up for the next month or two? Just highlight some appointments, bring those to the table, or I'll be honest, I just did a what would doctor do with a a practice the other day. ironically it's actually the same office we were talking about earlier. Funny, funny coincidence there.   But I just pulled up some FMXs on Google. Reason I did that was because sometimes if we know the patient, people get weird and they say, but that was Kiera and she's got a funny bite. And they have a thousand excuses versus just a FMX or just intraoral pictures maybe can help them see it. So Dave, it sounds like you guys I I love also hearing it's two to three hours, so that's helpful to know. Probably a couple case studies. Love the idea of different people role playing out different parts of that procedure.   And I will say   speaker-1 (16:34) Remember the so we didn't do straws when you kind of taught us this concept. Do you remember what we did?   speaker-0 (16:40) I I think I just like put like name tags on people. I don't I don't remember exactly   speaker-1 (16:45) So you got you ran out to what was it? Like I don't know, Michaels like some kind of Yeah. So we did that we did that one time too. I found them on Amazon and I got just to just to kind of mix things up. we basically got snowballs and you know, you people would kind of toss to the next person in the the line of the the patient experience. Yeah. Sometimes you just gotta do stuff like that to to to mix it up because otherwise, you know.   speaker-0 (16:51) Was it the snowballs? Yes.   Yeah, right.   speaker-1 (17:13) To sit there for more than like half an hour, yeah, everybody's either gonna fall asleep or you know, bang their heads against the wall.   speaker-0 (17:20) And I also think it's important, like another way I remember when I was in practice as an office manager, I got real sick of having to create all these because it like you said, it's a lot of time. But also if I'm always the teacher, how can I test my team's knowledge base? So also flipping the role and having some of them come of like, hey, here's here is the the piece of the treatment plan that we want to go through. So maybe it's root canals, maybe it's crowns, maybe it's implants, maybe it's on period.   And have somebody come with how they explain it to to also double check their knowledge base. So like set them up. Like you're gonna be presenting on this part, you're gonna be teaching this part. I think is also a really fun way to shake it up. But those snowballs, that was funny. It just happened to be what we found at the store. But guys, if you ever want a snowball that actually feels like a snowball, they're pretty it was actually pretty fun. I I do remember that actually.   speaker-1 (18:10) Pretty good. The ones that I found, not not so great.   speaker-0 (18:12) I think I actually found them, if you wanna know. Go scope in in Christmas time, holiday time. I think it was like Walgreens or like I think that that 'cause I had to just run to the store real fast and I was like, these look great. but I love that, Dave. I love that you're getting your team to I think the big piece that I'm hoping offices are taking away from this is there's consistency in calibration. And you have a set time. So every quarter   you know you're going to calibrate on some topic. We've got the why, why are we doing this? We've got the whole treatment plan and the procedures that we do in the practice, role-playing that out from start to finish. And then also you're doing the what makes us special. I really think that that cadence is brilliant. Even though it might feel routine and mundane, I might guess what working out is routine and mundane. But the long term effects of it when done consistently are health.   and wealth and growth and drive. And so yes, you've got to shake it up. Everybody gets into that workout like suck and it just becomes very boring and you don't want to go work out anymore. So you shake it up, you come up with new routines, you find different trainers, you find different ways to do it. But at the end of the day, you're still working out. Just like here at the end of the day, you're still calibrating. You're still training. So how does your team feel about this, Dave? Like do they, do they look forward to it? Do they say like, calibration? Like how does it tend to go?   That's my first question, then I've got a follow up to that one.   speaker-1 (19:32) Yeah, I don't know. I think I think it's hard to say. I think it's it's it's a mixed bag in a sense. You know, some people have been with me for a really   know a a lot at times with with stuff like that. I think it's nice to to kind of you know break up the schedule a little bit though because a lot of you know we do have our our weekly meetings, but still, you know, they're they're pretty short now. you know, given that we're not like we used to like eat while we were doing it. Now we kind of you know break that up, you know, based on our our protocols and everything like that. So it's like the shorter meetings. But it's nice to have a little bit more time in my mind then. but the other thing too that I that I wanted to to mention   is I think the way that I that look at things is is a is a little bit different now. So I think it makes it a little bit less in intimidating. I think when I kind of first started out with this, it was very much like, this is the script, like you gotta say it exactly like this. And I realized that that's insane, for lack of a better terms, because really at the at the end of the day, like the important thing in my mind is like the the the key concepts are there, that the points are coming across the right way, but it has to sound like Pira.   Right. You know what I'm saying? It has to sound like Dave. It has to sound like like an actual person. Like if it sounds like it just like a script, that like that defeats the purpose. The point of kind of us doing that is to have some uniformity in the concepts that are that are coming about. And so it builds trust with the patients. But if something sounds   phony, that's the opposite of it. So I've kind of gotten away from a little bit more of like you need to say this exact word like this to kind of like, you know, these these are like the concepts. And if somebody says things in like a way where it doesn't kind of, you know, do that, it's kind of like, hey, that that's great. Maybe, you know, this is like the point we're trying to get across, you know, next time try it like like this a little bit. but you know you you'd be surprised, just like with a lot of this stuff, you know, sometimes, you know, it really comes across super well the way somebody says something and it's completely   Unlike what we have written down, but it's the same idea. It just sounds like them.   speaker-0 (21:26) Totally. And I'm so glad you brought that up because again, I'm gonna tie back to why I don't believe in an A to Z cookbook. I believe in systems and processes, but I also believe in in change. Because yesterday I was interviewing a new consultant for Dental A Team and on our collection call protocol, she almost had the exact same style that we did. But she literally said, we we do a kind call. So we call the patient in a kind way. And I was like, my gosh, that's brilliant, because it just gave this whole new feel.   To a collections call versus like, I'm calling to collect money, and she called it a kind call. So to your point, you can actually find better verbiages, better ways when people do it their own way. But also don't be afraid to tell people if it comes across different because we don't hear ourselves. Dave, you're hearing me. I I can think and assume of how it's landing, but you're the one who's ultimately experiencing my words coming out. And so giving people feedback, some some some   I giggle because I've got some team members and like Kiera, I said it just like you, and I'm like, No. What I said was this. What you said is like that they're stupid and they're incompetent. Like that's how it came across. But they don't realize it. So I've even had certain team members record themselves. and then in a loving way, a very safe space where it's not judgmental, like playing it back. So sometimes even one on one, because that way they can actually hear themselves. So maybe even after calibration, you could spice it up this time, Dave, if you want.   have them role play these things and then have each person at least record themselves one time. you can have voice memos on your phone and have them actually listen back to see how it sounds because oftentimes like Dave, you and I actually chatted about how it sounded when you heard your podcast played back. You were like, I sound a lot different. I said, for my first like hundred and fifty, two hundred podcasts, I felt awkward. I still feel awkward, but it's becoming more normal. But we don't hear ourselves as much. So I think like that's also a piece to it of like   Giving people that autonomy, also some things of having them record themselves, I think can help because then it also helps show knowledge base. And selfishly, I'm also always thinking of systems that actually create a training bank for future employees because you've actually got great verbiage, great examples that you can plug in under those certain topics that future hires could actually hear. You could create a really awesome training bank that way as well.   speaker-1 (23:42) Yeah, I know for sure. That's one   speaker-0 (23:43) So fun. Dave, I love it. So guys, I would say try it out. Try Dave's model. but I I'm gonna ask real quick, give us like a quick synopsis of like going through the why. Like we dove a lot into the treatment, how to have the role play, all of that. How like what's that why part? Like, does that is it just like a quick quick synopsis of you kind of reinstating the vision, the core values, reminding people why we're here.   speaker-1 (24:05) Let me see. Hold on. Okay. So as far as as the why, I mean, we talked about mission, vision, core values, and we get to the philosophies of the practice. So the first thing is, you know, I we want to break down like what's what's our mission? So in our in our office, our mission is to exceed our patients' expectations. So, you know, what we've kind of talked about, well, what does that mean? You know, like how are we going to do that? We want to provide.   compassionate and practical dental care. That's the second part. So like what does that mean to everybody? We want to provide outstanding customer service. So once again, like, you know, what does that mean? How do we interact? Are we providing information up front? Are we staying on time and respecting people's time? What many amenities we're providing, you know, how are we doing follow-up? You know, all these things. And a lot of this is like, you know, we have it written out, but it's a little bit more of a discussion. And then the other thing too, our the last part of our our mission at our office is remaining at the forefront   Clinical advancement. So that's one of those things where when we first made this up, that was a big lie. I mean, everything was like analog paper, whatever. But you know, the then about, you know, a few months in, I got the itch and decided to to make some questionable financial decisions and just you know, go all in on everything because that's the way that I wanted to practice. So   speaker-0 (25:23) Yeah. I I   actually love that you broke that down. I love that you because sometimes as leaders when we build these visions, what we're envisioning is different than what our team actually does. So I love that you break it down like what does excellent customer service actually look like, feel like, what's the experience? Because then it becomes more tangible versus just words on a paper.   speaker-1 (25:42) Yeah. So that's that's the first chunk. The second chunk was what we talked about underpromise and overdeliver. You know, I think that's that's a big part of it. The third thing is what we kind of talked about of like, you know, how uniformity, you know, builds and maintains trust. And so there's that fine line of like, yeah, we want it to sound similar, but also not like it's cookie cutter and bake. Right. And then, you know, a couple other things. Like, I think pictures really helps or you know, pictures worth a thousand words. We want to take good pictures of what   we see so we can help explain something really well. And then the last chunk really is, you know, there are different types of of treatment. So there's stuff that's, you know, very important, more emergent, there's stuff that's preventative. And then, you know, the more elective, you know, cosmetic category of things. So we kind of talk about that. And that helps us, you know, figure out how do we want to, you know, prioritize everything. Sure. So that that's that's the the first big thing. And we dive into all that, you know, before we go into like the well how   speaker-0 (26:39) Yes. Which I actually think is really important. I'm I'm big on sequence matters and I love that you first go through who are we as a practice. Let's kind of give some tangibles on it because that actually can spur people to think differently of how they would explain treatment or explain how they're gonna talk to a patient on certain things, which I really, really love that you did that. So now looping all the way to the end, Dave, you said you also talk about what makes us special. So what does that look like on this calibration piece for you?   speaker-1 (27:05) So so basically this was another exercise we did at at some point. It was not one of the I didn't feel like if I just kind of sat there and I told people like, yeah, like this is why we're great, like that's that would be a big waste. Yeah. So I really we kind of we kind of sat down there and I said, like, let's just like get into it and you know, just call on everybody and say, Well, what do you think makes us stand out? You know, and we kind of just went through and and kind of really, you know.   speaker-0 (27:18) Sure.   speaker-1 (27:31) put together well, you know, what r what really sets us apart is as as an office. What are the things that we we try and do, you know? And as aside from that, even just some of the the basic stuff that a lot of offices have, even, but we want to make sure that we we're, you know, mentioning like, you know, like membership plan in in your office. Or if you do anything like, you know, like we do something that a lot of people do, like a whitening for life thing where it's basically they pay once and as long as they're coming regularly, you know, here you go. Right. You know, stuff like that. Just kind of like little things that, you know,   patients may may ask anybody in the office and be yeah, I don't know what that is. Like that that would be very like that would be not good.   speaker-0 (28:07) Yeah, absolutely. Well, because it's one of those things it's always funny. Offices, I I giggle a lot when offices tell me, Yeah, Kiera, I don't know what to do. Our patients, like, we do Invisalign in our practice, but they're still going to someone else. And I'm like, Because your patient doesn't know. Like, if they don't know all these things that you guys do, they will go somewhere else. They think you do their cleanings and you do their fillings. They don't realize that you do implants and ortho and sedation and Botox and all these other things. So I love that you   constantly remind your team of what makes your office special because in doing so, that's then what they're going to translate to the patients. It's like, I I heard a great quote that said, repetition is the mother of skill. And I love that because we can talk about it one time, but if we're constantly repeating it, like why do we get so good at our morning routines? Well, because we repeat it every single day, to where it's it's second nature for us. We don't even have to think about it. So I really love that you   You dive through the whole practice in a quick two to three hour thing. I love that it doesn't take all day. I love that it breaks out and shakes it up pre-scheduled out because this calibration is paramount. And I'm like, shoot, Dave, I'm like, I'm gonna go back and listen to this podcast. I'm gonna write these things down because I was thinking of consultant calibration. I have one once a month, but we don't go through the nitty-gritties of everything as consultant teams. And I've been watching as I've been doing client check-ins, that each consultant kind of has their own variance from office to office.   If we could start to bring those in, hear what the other people are saying, how they're saying it, similar to doctors, if doctors could hear how different doctors are diagnosing different ways that they're explaining treatment, it helps elevate your entire practice and patient experience. And I think at the end of the day, that's what this ultimately is all about. Because if your patient experience is awesome, coming from an awesome team experience, the whole practice is just going to elevate and everyone's going to feel much happier, less stressed and all around great. Cool.   speaker-1 (29:56) Yeah.   So I you know, all this stuff is is helpful. I mean the the the take home message is if it can't it can't get stale. So it always requires time and effort to to try and mix it up. And that's always hard to be able to do. But you know, you you you do what you can and and really at the end of the day, I mean, you know, the more you can do with this stuff, the better. The other thing that you were you were talking about, how our patients don't really know what we do and everything like that. I mean, I can't I can't preach that enough.   I mean, I think there are things that we can do way better to do that. simple thing that we did is we for a long time had like spear education videos looping in our waiting area. and it just really opened my eyes to the fact like sometimes like patient would come in and be like, I saw that video about that. Let's do that. my god, like this is like this is amazing, you know. So what we're what I'm working on right now is   We try and put together basically like a little little slideshow in the background that part of it will be kind of things as far as you know, some of the clinical things that we do. Part of it'll be like, you know, getting to know team members better. So like little fun facts, things like that, you know, other things that just like you know, somebody may see in the background and find interesting, you know, kind of like a little subliminal in a sense, but we want to try and find a balance where it's not like so in your face. But the important thing there is really.   People see this and they may not necessarily, you know, need the, you know, the the treatment or have the conditions that they see on the screen. But, you know, husband, wife, you know, mother, daughter, you know, who knows? And they may say, Hey, you know what? I saw this at at you know, my dentist, and the way that they do this looks pretty amazing. I've never like seen or heard of anything like that when they, you know, it seems like it was so much more involved. So that's that's a little project we have working on.   And it's a little project that I personally am not dealing with, which I'm very, very happy about. So we're slowly, slowly getting everybody to help.   speaker-0 (31:48) That's awesome. Well, and like you said, I think it's just an awareness piece. I think the more your patients can see it because the guys, I don't I don't need implants. Thankfully. my teeth are really straight. I hate my ding dang lateral number ten. If somebody wants to, you know, take me on as a patient, it just needs a quick rotation. That's all I need. but nobody ever asks me about it. But the   And Dave, I'm sure on Zoom right now is like looking in, like, here, let me see your tooth. but the bottom line is like it's an awareness piece, just because I don't need it as a patient. I am connected to a lot of friends and family. So if I hear it at work or I hear it with my family and they're like, I need somebody to do ortho. I'm like, my dentist does that. So again, it's just an awareness piece for your patients. So, Dave, so many pieces you pulled in here. I love going through the why, actually going through the pieces of your practice.   Then going into the tangibles of clinical, having case studies, examples, having people role play it out on different positions, and then going into what makes us special and reminding our practice of the things that we do offer. So it's a constant awareness and I love that you have this on a quarterly cadence. I think for all offices, I don't care how you do this, if it's once a year, if it's every four every three months, so four times a year, if you do it twice a year at retreats. I don't care, but I would strongly suggest each of you at least try to get this in. We're ending the year out. So I would say   At least w at a minimum one calibration. I would strongly suggest that four because again, repetition is the mother of skill that can really help out. So Dave, as always, brilliant podcast. Love learning from you. Love hearing the great things you're doing. It's been fun to watch you evolve as as a leader and as an owner and as a clinician over the years that I've known you. So thank you again for your time today. It was it was just awesome. I loved it.   Kiera Dent (33:24) Dental A Team listeners, I hope you loved revisiting this episode as much as I did. I hope that you found the nuggets, the pearls. You can see why we re-released this one because I truly want you to take away the best of the best of the best of the best. This episode truly hopefully sparked some new excitement, gave you some new ideas. I know sometimes when I go back and I look back on things that I've learned in the past, I'm able to re-implement because like that famous quote says, no man steps into the same river twice because neither he is the same man.   nor is the river the same. You are not the same as you were before, nor is your practice the same as it was before. Different things, different ideas, same principles. And I really want to highlight and hopefully you took today that sometimes all we need to do is simplify and put into place or to refine things that we've already been doing really, really well. If you love this episode, don't keep it to yourself, share it with a colleague or leave us a review and help more practices find the Dental A Team podcast. As always, thanks for listening and I'll catch you next time on the Dental A Team podcast.

We are so excited to be here with you today. Like we say every single time, we truly, truly do love podcasting and we love what we do. I think getting into it, ⁓ Dana and I, we just spent some time figuring out what this podcast was going to mean and how we were gonna take it. So sometimes it can be like a little daunting, I feel like. But once we get started, ⁓ I think it just flows and and we love it. So, Dana, thank you for workshopping this title and this   project with us today and how are you doing? It's like full blown summer in Arizona. ⁓ it's hot and it's beautiful. And I know we chatted last week and I said are sports done and I was like, yeah, that's right. Sports are never done. So Dana, how are you? How's life down there in the Tucson area?   DAT-Dana (00:48) It's doing really good. Like you said, summer's in full swing, so sunshine's out, kids are, yep, back at sports. ⁓ I just feel like I don't know. I am a su I always say I'm like a lizard. I like to soak up the Arizona sunshine, but I do feel like as the older I get, sometimes these summers get a little bit more brutal every year.   Tiff (01:07) I   agree. I keep saying, is it actually is it getting hotter? Is it getting harder? Or am I getting older and less tolerant? Because I'm the same. I'm a lizard. My ⁓ my family calls me the the lizard because I we even went to the pool yesterday and I was like, no, I don't wanna actually be in the water. Like I just want to be in the sun, feeling it on my body. It makes me feel good. But I'm the same way that I'm like I'm just I'm getting so much less tolerant. I really do think that Yeah. Yeah. I know.   DAT-Dana (01:25) And so.   Yeah. Yeah. fun fine.   Tiff (01:36) I know. Well,   today's content I think ⁓ I'm excited about. Like I said, we workshopped it and I think we came up with some really solid solid pieces here because I think this is something, especially at this time of year, actually, that a lot of doctors and practice owners, one, you get that like itch mid year that you're like, Am I doing enough? Do I need to do something else? And then we see a lot of doctors kind of like sideswipe their team and really just undercut and be like, We're adding something different or we're changing everything up or   Whatever. ⁓ and also at this time of the year, I know for us, at least with our clients, it's a time of year that we really start thinking about next year. I know that seems kind of wild, but that like June, July, August, September timeframe, we're really starting to project, okay, what's left of this year, how are we going to make those goals and exceed those goals? And then what is that gonna roll into for the following year? So this kind of subject that we have today, this this chat, I think falls right into that. And what we want to chat through is capacity.   I love that word. I love the word capacity because it can mean so many different things. I think there's like capacity of our mind. And I talk with with practices in Dana, I know you do too of capacity for team members a lot. Like what is their capacity and not just their time capacity and what they're able to do, but also like their brains, right? How much, how much pivoting can they do in one day? How much how much different subjects can they take on in one day? And what's that capacity? But really today I want to chat capacity of your   Practice and your numbers. And Dana, you spoke really eloquently about this a second ago. And I want to I want to bring that back around to the capacity of the practice because I think first and foremost, when a practice owner thinks about growth, they think, okay, I need more operatories. I need a second practice. And I need, I need, I need. And it's like, yeah, we sometimes we do have to invest to recoup.   benefits, right? So we do have to invest and we have to we have to grow the physical space. ⁓ and I and I think for so long in dentistry it was like how many practices do you have like the first question people asked and how big is your practice? What's your revenue? How many patients do you have? And those questions still swim around and it can make a practice owner feel like they're reaching and grasping for something that they're not even really sure that they want yet. And I know Dana you've seen that too and something that I love watching   our team work with their practices in is really growing within the capacity of the the physical capacity that they have within their practice without having to make that initial investment. But also Dana, I've watched you like grow into that. So projecting and saying, cool, then at this point or in one year, in two years, in three years, this is the capacity, the physical capacity that we want to get to. So I want to really dispel the fact that capacity means we have to   actually grow the physical space because I think Dana there's so much to be grown within the space that we have. And I want to talk through those pieces so that a lot of our listeners here today might pick up something that they're like, gosh, I never thought about that or ⁓ I forgot to do that. There's a lot of those, I forgot to do that piece. So when a doctor comes to you, Dana, and they're like, Dana, I need to grow but I have no more hours. I have   I'm tapped, I don't know what to do. What are some of the first places as a dental consultant that you look at with those practices?   DAT-Dana (05:03) Yeah, I think a couple things. I think that I look at like how comprehensive are we treating the patients within your practice? So are there things that we're letting walk out the door that we are skilled and know how to do that we can keep within the practice, which helps us, I think, just more comprehensively treat patients, which naturally will grow production.   ⁓ I love that you said yes, we're at maximum hours, but I do think that's always a place to look before you look at more space, before you look at expanding. Can you just add hours somewhere? and oftentimes those early morning, those evening hours, patients really, really like too. So we feel like those can stay full. I also will look at insurance participation. Can we change insurance participation and again be able to maybe even lessen our capacity but keep growing our practice with patients?   who align a little bit more with what we're looking for as far as like patient avatar ideal patient.   Tiff (06:00) Yeah, I love that I have a lot of practices that are doing that right now in this like June, July, August timeframe. So that in September, October, we can start at least sending those letters that say, Hey, will you increase our fee schedules? Because there are so many that are out of line. And I think that's a huge discussion ⁓ that's been going around really for the last like two to three years. But I think very, very soon it's not even gonna be a discussion anymore. It's just gonna be a thing of the past. So we are approaching that, I think.   You're totally spot on the fee schedules, fee schedule analysis too for your practice. And I think, Dana, understanding I have a practice I understand that you can do this at any point. You can analyze your fees, you can request fee schedule increases. It doesn't depend on your contract with the insurance company. Just request those fee schedule increases because the worst that they can do is say no. And then you evaluate your contract obligations with them and what you want to do for your practice. We get so scared of like, well,   When can we? It's like they're they don't actually tell you. You just do it. You just do it and then they tell you yes or no. I have a practice that actually increases their fees ⁓ during the summer. And so a lot of practices will wait and they're like, it needs to be January because that's like a fresh start. And I think for me, Dana, it makes me think of like I'll start my diet on Monday. ⁓ no, it's fine, I'll just I'll do it on Monday. And then we get to like December, January, and they're like, Well, wait, we didn't tell the patients yet. And then they hold back, they hold back, and then it's a whole nother year again.   before we do fee schedule increases. And it just doesn't have to be that dramatic. And that can significantly increase the dollar amounts coming in, which is ultimately our end goal, right? And I think it's like in dentistry it's hard because we're healthcare professionals. So focusing in on those dollars and being like, gosh, you know, charging $1200 for an implant   seems crazy because we came from a spot where we were charging six forty two not that long ago, right? It feels like not that long ago in dentistry dentistry is so progressive and it changes so constantly. We have to stay up on on our fees and we have to stay up on the times where dental insurance doesn't do that. It can hold us back from making sure that we're increasing those fees to where they should be and that we're you guys are making the   the dollar amounts, the overhead structure that you want to and that you should. So making sure that you're looking at those is massive. And then Dana, you also said that the patient avatar, and I have I have some the clients that have, gosh, like thousands upon thousands upon thousands of patients and evaluating the actual patient base. So active patient base is, you know, whomever's been seen within the last 18 months. And then looking at are those patients even our ideal   avatar. I've had clients that have had to basically dismiss patients because their patient base was too clean. So it was like we either we either keep clean patients and don't have dentistry to do or we reevaluate our patient base and start restructuring for the structure that we actually want to do. And that for you, Dana, I think was kind of twofold because you said the patient avatar and then you also said the dentistry like that we want to do and that things that we can keep   in the practice. So what have you seen with your your clients when they do that patient avatar and they're like, gosh, actually this is the ideal patient. This is my patient demographic, because it can't we can't live in the middle of I don't know, retirement community and be like, we're gonna do Botox, the whole like we're gonna do all the Botox, right? We've got to make sure that we're dealing with the patients that we also have. So what do you see as far as capacity and being able to grow financially?   within those constraints.   DAT-Dana (09:42) Yeah.   I think that it it like you said, it like the creating your ideal patient allows you to kind of see, like, are you serving the people in the community that you want to be serving? And are you doing the type of dentistry that one they need and two that also you like to be doing? And sometimes those things can be, you know, you have to figure out how they work within the community that you have if it's the dentistry that you love. But I think taking a look at your patient avatar allows you to see, like, are we currently serving the patients who like really   align with what we're looking for in our practice. And when you don't, right, then you can start to say, hey, okay, let's put some systems in place. Just try to get our patient base a little bit more aligned with what we like to do as far as the type of dentistry. And to just like the patients that we feel like we best serve and we can best impact. And I think when you start to do these things, I always say, yeah, we've we get to a point in our patient base where patients get healthy. And it might not be all of our patient base, but certainly some of our patient base. That's the goal of recares, right?   We have recare patients, we bring them back, they continue to occasionally have things pop up, but for the most part, we've gotten them steady and stable. And then I think then it's the next layer. Okay, they're steady and stable, but do they love their smile? And if they don't love their smile, what do you have in your toolbox, right? That can help do that next layer. I think sometimes we get into like, hey, you know, I am getting a lot of new patients, but they're just healthy patients, right? They've been seen every six months. That doesn't mean there's nothing we can do for them. And sometimes creating your patient avatar and   Tiff (10:55) Yeah.   DAT-Dana (11:12) looking at your services helps expand like your way of thinking and the things that you can do for them to continue honestly and truly to continue doing dentistry on either your patient base or we've got to make a switch, right? And we've got to start to transition some of our patient base so that it is more ideal.   Tiff (11:24) Yeah.   Yeah, I love that. So something to consider as we were talking, I was thinking about like metrics and the metrics that we like to utilize within our ⁓ consulting to really help be able to account for capacity, right? Actual physical space capacity and patient patient-based capacity. And something we love to do is to consider the number of patients per hygiene day.   Now this can get a little confusing because you think just day of the week, right? There's seven days of the week. There's typically five days that are worthy of being open. ⁓ sometimes six if you're Saturday, and most of you are probably four days a week. Well, within those four days, you could have exponential amounts of hygiene days. So if Monday you've got three hygienists, that's three hygiene days. So per hygiene day per week, we really want to see 200 hygiene.   Active patients per hygiene day. So if on Monday you've got three hygienists working the full day, that's 600 active patients per that day. So you multiply that by every day of the week, and that tells you how many recare patients we tip we like easy numbers. You guys, 200 is an easy number. We love that. So we typically are going to use some formula to that capacity that will tell us how many active patients per hygiene day you should have.   And if you reverse engineer that, Dana, I love this because it tells us the capacity of our hygiene department, meaning, do we need more hygienists? Because doctors are always like, Do I should I want to hire? It's hard to hire. I've got a hygienist on the books, or I think I have I need more hygiene hours. I'm booked out this far. And honestly and truly, I feel like when we wait for that space where we're like, gosh, I'm at capacity, I can't fit any more patients, I'm booked out too far. That's when we're scrambling and trying to fix the space issue. And we get into this like frenzy.   Whereas if we're watching our our hygiene numbers, we're watching our active patient count and our new patients plus attrition, we can see what our capacity is going to be and we can better project when do I need to hire another hygienist and do I have the space for that? So if you if you work those numbers, you can start to see, okay, I have enough patients in my patient base right now to supply X amount of hygienists with X amount of working days. Now, given my   new patient count coming in and my attrition meaning how many am I losing on the back end, which should be very, very, very small. You guys, it should be patients moving or losing patients. I'm not gonna say why. you guys can understand. I don't like saying that. They just they're gone. So they didn't leave us for another dental practice. They moved away somewhere. ⁓ So that's your attrition. But taking those into consideration you can start to do the math and see okay with this new patient inflow,   I'm getting a positive net of new patients of X per month. This is how long it's gonna be that I'm gonna need another hygienist. So then Dana, I would say like probably two months ahead of that ish, maybe three, start looking for a hygienist. It's starting to get like finding an associate dentist anymore. So two to three months ahead of when you might need them, I would really start projecting and looking at.   hiring them. Now capacity-wise, Dana, that slides into, okay, this doctor that's listening now is like, cool, well, my I don't have an operatory. Okay, great. Well, now we look at some other options. And Dana, when there's ⁓ an option and not an option of another operatory, what do you like to look at for when you do ⁓ add in those hygienists for capacity wise?   DAT-Dana (15:04) Yeah. I think it is. It comes to are there days that we can add? Are there hours that we can add anywhere to be able to serve the patients? And again, I mean, yes, we're getting new patients in this scenario, but sometimes it's just to serve the patients who've been with the practice, right? Or just our recare patients. So how can we manipulate hours? How can we manipulate days? Is there any room anywhere ⁓ to be able to   see more patients within the allotted space. And you know, I will say I've got a practice in on the East Coast and it's just a three operatory practice, right? So we're constantly, constantly trying to game plan this capacity thing because there is no room for expansion. There is no and like they love the location. They and so we do you have to get a little bit creative. And sometimes it means like we do have a part-time hygienist that comes in on Saturdays. We do have a part-time hygienist that comes in on Fridays. We do we've expanded hours, we've done some kind   Tiff (15:38) yeah.   DAT-Dana (15:58) of   like split shift. And ⁓ again, I know sometimes offices hesitate with that, but like honestly and truly just ask your team, right? Your team will tell you like what they're willing and what they're not willing to do. And sometimes you'll be surprised how even manipulating shifts actually helps team members in their personal lives, right? We have those moms that maybe want to drop their kids off at school in the morning. So not starting until 10 is great for them. Right. And so until we have these conversations with team and we look at all these avenues and all the doors that we could open   the levers that we could pull to really be able to continue to grow even if we are at max capacity. I think that there are a number of things to look at before having to find a new building or add a second location or ⁓ those types of things. And so it can be a mix of changing hours, it can be a mix of adding providers, it can be a mix of adding days, all the things before it has to go to that point.   Tiff (16:41) Mm.   Yeah. That was a great ⁓ that was a great visual. The office, the three pr the three op practice. I definitely have I have one that's a four op and three hygienists. ⁓ so I I totally agree. And I love also in your mix there, you're talking about like adding hours and working. I they added hours there they're expanding by hours, but also something that I love doing is that smart scheduling.   Right. Block scheduling is wonderful. I know other people who love it. There are people who hate it. There are people who don't understand it. But block scheduling can truly, truly make it so that you can see your capacity so you can better schedule for one, but then also better prep and better like move forward. Something that I love doing is really looking at when you've got a smaller operator when you have 11 and you're like, I need the twelfth. You're like, cool, that's fine too. Take a day, look at your schedule and say, Okay, maybe on Wednesdays.   My doctor's gonna do like heavy, heavier appointments on doctor side. So we've got, you know, high production, high value production all day. Maybe there's some assistant driven stuff so they can still do some exams, but then I've got a hygienist that's running just SRPs. So like Wednesday is she's in doctor's operatory. So doc loses an operatory, doc is doing heavy in one column, doc loses an operatory, and I've got heavy SRPs. So we're not losing the production.   We're gaining the production and able to do the recares on the other days so that we can project out or Fridays. I have a lot of hygienists that will do that'll love to come in on a half day on Friday for like four hours and just bust out SRPs because back-to-back SRPs is hard, but it's when you've got a half a day of it, it's kind of like quick, easy production, get it done, and it makes it more valuable coming in for on a Friday. Yeah. And   Outside of that, so not even outside of that, I would say all of this combined. If your fee schedules are in alignment, if you know your capacity of your patient base, meaning how many patients do you have, how many hygienists do you need for that, how many doctors do you need for that, the capacity of your time, right? How how long are you working and are you being super effective and efficient within those hours? I've seen a lot of doctors as well. This is something we haven't mentioned yet. I did mention like block scheduling and eff efficient scheduling and hygiene.   But I've also seen a lot of doctors that are like willy-nilly doing a couple fillings here and there or the the front office ⁓ scheduling team is really just scheduling them to fill the schedule so there's no white space. I but it's not effective scheduling. And so we're really not producing what we should be, but we're also not using our chair time effectively. So when we have those smaller appointments, we're turning that room over so much. And if you think about it, Dana, I'm like, gosh, there's ten minutes at the beginning minimum.   DAT-Dana (19:23) I see.   Tiff (19:47) 10 minutes at the end minimum that an assistant is turning over that room. And so we're losing 20 minutes every appointment that's non-productive time. And within that, if we've got filling, filling, filling, filling, filling, and docs having to get up to go do exams, our our filling appointment, our filling appointment is longer because he, she has to get up and go do exams. Plus, we're losing that turnover time every single time. So if we can   utilize something like blocked scheduling or smart scheduling, however you want to do it, to not back to back to back the little appointments. They're gonna happen. I'm not saying overdiagnose and over-treat to not have little appointments. I'm saying let's butt those up against longer appointments so we're not losing that time. Is that something that you often see Dana within that with your with your client base of really restructuring the schedule to get the capacity up.   DAT-Dana (20:40) Yeah, I do. And and I usually will tackle it from like that's when we actually feel the capacity restraint, right? That's when it's like, my gosh, we're so burnt out and we're so and sometimes it is like, hey, can we schedule a little bit better so that like yes, we can value our time, we can make our time more efficient. And I always joke around with practices and say, can I get you to goal with 31 surface fillings? Yes, but can I get you there with three crowns? And doesn't that feel different?   Tiff (20:46) Mm.   DAT-Dana (21:06) Right. So I also think it's like how much we feel our capacity, right? Because that is so many more check-ins and checkouts and insurance verifications and like the workload just like duplicates and replicates for everybody on the team. And just like you said, then doctor having to get up and and you know, all that room turnover that happens with   Tiff (21:06) Yeah.   Yeah.   DAT-Dana (21:25) The clinical team. So I do feel like when you schedule strategically too, it helps you not feel the capacity restraints as well as allows you to be super efficient with your time and making sure that we're using like every 10 minutes we have within the day to be able to take care of patients.   Tiff (21:43) Yeah, I totally agree. I have a practice that just last week, ⁓ one of the doctors was like, I'm over this. I'm done. I'm I'm burnt out. And like we're over here trying to like untangle ⁓ financial stuff and and we're trying to untangle front office overload work overload and get things ⁓ efficient in both those areas and understood and do all of these like willy nilly appointments and anyways, yes. It it was like that was the breaking point was the   capacity and feeling like something's gotta give. Well, it's probably within your scheduling. I completely agree. And I feel that way too. If I if I overload my personal schedule or my work schedule and I've got too much going on and they're like, gosh, like these little tiny errands or calls, if I do my 30 minute coaching calls back to back for an entire day, I am exhausted at the end of the day compared to if I can get a couple of big chunked hour coaching calls in between those 30 minutes, I'm much more productive.   And I feel so much better at the end of the day. And it makes me think how lucky I am that I have been in dentistry for as long as I have been. And then I'm able to look at a schedule and really, really create a productive schedule for myself. So I love it, Dana. I I think action item-wise, ⁓ whether you're feeling capacity or not, I would constantly evaluate this area because the worst thing in my mind that I do for myself is wait until I'm burnt out to look at my capacity.   To wait until I'm burnt out to say something's got to give on my schedule. I really like looking at my schedule ahead and being like, that's gonna suck. Let me restructure, let me figure something out. Or like we do it too with our calls. You know, how many calls do we have? What does that look like? How can we get that done within the capacity of our timing? So I would say don't wait until it hurts to fix it. Make sure that you've got it ahead of time so that you cut the capacity doesn't burn you out. So   Evaluating the number of active patients you have, evaluating what you will have given your new patient influx and your attrition. Also, I really, really strongly advise ⁓ reactivation campaigns so that you're grasping a lot of the people who maybe attritioned out before. Your hygiene team, I think, will love you for that. Dana can Dana can do a whole podcast on not forgetting about our recare patients and the patients we already have. That is one hygiene 101. So make sure you're doing your patients right.   so evaluating your patient base, making sure you know what you have, what you're going to need, and evaluating your schedule. So before you even add hours, before you add days, look at are you being the most efficient and effective with the time that you have? Don't take more time away. ⁓ be super effective and efficient with the time that you have and be ⁓ collecting the fees. One, be collecting the fees you're already charging. So look at your AR. Two, charge.   what you deserve and collect the fees that you should be and then look at opening hours, opening days, and then look at opening more space in your practice is how I would recommend looking at that before jumping straight into more, more, more, bigger, bigger, better. And I think Dana, we are getting to the point of life where we're understanding bigger isn't always better. I love it. Awesome.   DAT-Dana (25:03) Yep, agreed.   Tiff (25:05) Hey Dana, thank you so much for this podcast today. This was fun. I'm glad we workshopped it ahead of time.

I've always wondered how specifically having good relationships can decrease our likelihood of cancer or having a heart attack, and improve our immune systems and brain health. Well, I asked a Stanford Neuroscientist and his answers are absolutely fascinating.  Dr. Ben Rein is an award-winning neuroscientist and lecturer at Stanford, and the author of the phenomenal new book, Why Brains Need Friends. We are talking about why hanging out with your friends floods your brain with a chemical cocktail that is basically a microdose of MDMA, why being married beats chemotherapy as the number one predictor of surviving cancer, why Botox and Tylenol and Advil are making it harder to make friends, yes, really, and why we should all probably get dogs and get our parents to get dogs if we want them to live a long time. You're going to come away with a ton of action steps to not only live longer and be healthier, but also just feel better every single day.

There are three big ways profit can distort reality: inaccurate revenue tracking, blended service margins, and poor cash flow visibility. Understanding these numbers helps you make better financial decisions as your practice grows.  In my conversation with Jared Rohrer on his podcast The Patient Magnet, we get into why a positive net profit on your financial reports doesn't always mean your business is financially healthy—and why relying too heavily on that number can lead to costly decisions.  Why Reported Profit Often Tells an Incomplete Story  Profit only tells part of the story. If your revenue tracking is off or your liabilities aren't being accounted for properly, your financial reports can create a false sense of confidence.  Track revenue based on when services are actually delivered—not simply when cash is collected. With beauty bank memberships, gift cards, and prepaid monthly subscriptions, upfront cash can look like strong recurring revenue when it's really future liability sitting on your balance sheet.  This is how practices end up looking profitable on paper while carrying obligations that weaken cash flow and quietly reduce long-term business value.  The Financial Metrics That Reveal What Profit Can't  Looking beyond reported profit means tracking the operational metrics that show where profitability is actually being created.  • Track accrual-based revenue separately from collected cash • Analyze service margins by category • Monitor provider utilization and revenue per hour • Measure revenue per square foot • Review membership redemption and liability exposure • Track cash flow independently from net profit  These metrics make it easier to identify loss leaders, evaluate Botox margins against higher-margin laser treatments, and make stronger pricing decisions.  Financial Visibility Requires Operational Ownership  Financial reports should be operational tools—not numbers you avoid until there's a problem.   Simple financial forecasting gives you visibility into cash flow, debt management, operating expenses, inventory needs, and upcoming obligations. That clarity helps you make decisions proactively instead of reactively.  Financial Accuracy Becomes a Scaling Requirement As You Expand  The larger your med spa becomes, the more expensive financial blind spots become. Misreading revenue, overlooking margin compression, or misunderstanding membership liabilities can quietly limit growth long before it becomes obvious on your financial reports.  Med spas that scale well build financial discipline into their operations early. When you understand your numbers clearly, you create stronger systems for pricing, forecasting, membership strategy, and long-term growth.  Follow Shannon & Keep What You Earn:   Shannon Weinstein is the founder of a fractional CFO firm specializing in helping 7-figure aesthetics and wellness practices scale with clarity, cash flow, and confidence.  Shannon is committed to helping med spa owners understand, fix, and maximize their business's enterprise value, offering actionable advice and resources, including a popular free video series specifically for aesthetics practice owners.   Fractional CFO Services and Executive Financial Review: https://www.keepwhatyouearn.com/  Connect with Shannon: https://www.linkedin.com/in/shannonweinstein  Watch full episodes: https://www.youtube.com/@KeepWhatYouEarn  Listen on your favorite podcast app: https://pod.link/1580071347  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/shannonkweinstein/  The information shared is for educational purposes only and is not individualized financial advice.

This episode started with a question I get constantly. Why is my routine not working anymore? The products are good. The consistency is there. But the skin is not responding the way it used to. More dullness. More puffiness. More fine lines despite the retinol. Here is what most of the skincare conversation is missing: your skin is not a surface problem. It is an output. A real-time signal of what is happening inside your hormonal system. And your bloodwork is the decoder. In this episode, I walk through four specific lab markers that directly control what your menopause skin does: estrogen, free T3, cortisol, and ferritin. Each one maps to a skin symptom you are probably already seeing in the mirror. Dryness and collagen loss. Estrogen. Stubborn dullness that no exfoliant fixes. Free T3. Fine lines that retinol cannot hold. Cortisol. Dark circles that no eye cream touches. Ferritin. These are not random. They are specific. And once you know what to look for, you stop blaming your products and start asking better questions. Your hormones are the primer. Your products are the paint. Paint on an unprimed surface looks beautiful for a day and then lifts. That is exactly what is happening for a lot of women in menopause, and it has nothing to do with the products they chose. This episode is the overview. The in-depth version, with the specific markers to request, what optimal ranges look like for skin health, and how to build a recalibration protocol around your results, lives inside the Skin Scholar Society on Substack. The Skin Scholar Society is where I publish the research, the protocols, and the education that goes deeper than a single episode can hold. If you are ready to stop guessing and start working with your biology, that is the place to be.   Lindsey Holder is a Menopause Skin Specialist and Master Esthetician with 16+ years of clinical experience. She helps women in menopause recalibrate their skincare to restore firmness, clarity, and glow without Botox or fillers.

The aesthetics marketplace moves billions of dollars a year and is built to sell, which makes a clear, unhurried head your strongest asset. Across the ten episodes of the Beauty Series, Dr. Lawrence Bass curates a guide to navigating cosmetic treatments, and this final installment is a reflection on the most important takeaways: A steady relationship with one provider beats scattered, one-off Botox or filler appointments because it gives you someone who knows your preferences and watches how you age over time. Planning gets right-sized to the moment: what you need before the holidays, what to address this year, and a comprehensive view of the next several years. These frameworks anchor your decision-making: The beauty lens is the feature that actually bothers you, weighed against whether a reliable treatment for it exists The beauty thermostat is how sensitive you are to change, where turning it up earlier favors small, low-recovery tweakments over bigger corrections later. Dr. Bass also flags the real risks of traveling abroad for treatment, the gap between restoring your appearance and changing it, and the daily essentials that hold everything together: sunscreen, a barrier-protecting moisturizer, and a prescription retinoid. The payoff of doing your homework is spending the least time and money while landing closest to your goals, and steering clear of buyer's remorse. Questions answered by this episode: 1. What is the Park Avenue Plastic Surgery Class Beauty Series? 2. Why is an ongoing relationship with one aesthetic provider better than one-off treatments? 3. What are the risks of traveling abroad for cosmetic surgery? 4. How should you plan beauty treatments for the short and long term? 5. What is the "beauty lens" and how does it guide treatment choices? 6. What is the "beauty thermostat" and why does its sensitivity matter? 7. Are trendy aesthetic treatments worth trying? 8. What are tweakments, and how do they fit into a beauty plan? 9. What skincare products belong in every routine? 10. How big is the beauty industry, and why should that change how you shop for treatments? About Dr. Lawrence Bass Innovator. Industry veteran. In-demand Park Avenue board certified plastic surgeon, Dr. Lawrence Bass is a true master of his craft, not only in the OR but as an industry pioneer in the development and evaluation of new aesthetic technologies.

James and Robert are back with another episode of The Double Cleanse, and this week they're getting REAL about the products they actually spend their own money on – not PR, not sponsorships, but genuine favourites they can't live without! Robert kicks things off by revealing he's potentially moving and has been sorting through his hoarding habits – specifically his obsession with Olive Young Korean beauty hauls. Turns out he has about 20 bottles of one serum that he keeps repurchasing because he finishes them so quickly, plus an entire collection of Tamagotchi multi-purpose balms that he's too self-conscious to film! From there, they dive into their actual favourite products: James raves about the eye whitening drops that make his eyes look impossibly bright, Robert goes deep on a lifting cream calling it a proper old-fashioned anti-ageing moisturiser. Robert rants about TikTok Shop sellers claiming it's a "Botox cream" (a lie) or namedropping Cardi B as if her endorsement matters – spoiler: it doesn't need celebrity backing to be genuinely good. The twins wrap up with the reminder that these are products they've actually paid for with their own money because they work, not because they were gifted.

This conversation is not just about menopause symptoms. It is about what it actually feels like to live inside a changing female body in midlife. The grief, the confusion, the vanity, the softness, the strength, the reinvention. All of it. In this episode, I sit down with fitness hall of famer, JJ Virgin for a real conversation about what happens when your body starts changing in ways you did not expect, the things that stop working, and how to hold onto yourself while also becoming someone new. We talk about the reality of perimenopause and menopause when you are living it, not just teaching it. JJ shares what her own transition looked like, from thyroid changes and hormone shifts to body composition changes and the shrinking margin for error that comes with midlife. We get into why so many women feel blindsided by weight gain, why muscle changes everything, why early hormone support matters, and why the old advice to just eat less and exercise more completely misses the point. We also go into the emotional side of aging that women do not talk about enough. The pressure to look good. The decision to use Botox, fillers, or surgery. The freedom that can come with getting older. The shift into caring less about pleasing everyone else. And we talk about practical tools too, from strength training to creatine, aminos, GLP-1s, thyroid support, and how to approach midlife in a way that is proactive, honest, and actually helpful. This is a conversation about aging on your terms, with more power, more honesty, and a lot less shame. In this episode, we cover: What JJ's own perimenopause and menopause transition looked like Why thyroid changes can show up early in perimenopause Why midlife weight gain is not just about calories The truth about weight loss resistance in menopause Why estrogen support matters earlier than most women are told Why muscle is one of the most important things to focus on in midlife The bare minimum strength training women need for health and longevity JJ's thoughts on Botox, facelifts, and aging on your own terms The role of GLP-1s in menopause weight gain and metabolic health Why creatine and amino acids may be game changers for midlife women Who this episode is for: This episode is for women in perimenopause and menopause who feel like their body is changing faster than they expected and they are trying to figure out what to do next. It is especially for women dealing with weight gain, muscle loss, low confidence, changing hormones, thyroid issues, or the emotional side of aging and wanting a more honest, more empowering conversation about how to handle this season well.

Facelifts are having a MOMENT. Kris Jenner. Denise Richards. Suddenly every woman over 50 is asking the question out loud: is this what it takes now? Do I need a facelift? Is there a natural alternative that actually works? Facial plastic surgery jumped 19% in 2025. Forty-five percent of surgeons say menopause is what is driving it. Which means somebody needs to be telling us the REAL story, not the marketing one. This episode is with Dr. Anthony Youn, board-certified plastic surgeon known as America's Holistic Plastic Surgeon. He is the most-followed plastic surgeon on the internet with 13 million+ across TikTok and YouTube. He is the author of four bestsellers including Younger For Life and he hosts The Doctor Youn Show. Here is why he is different. He is a surgeon who tells women to AUTOJUVENATE before you operate. Skincare. Supplements. Collagen. Red light. Nutrition. Hormones. THEN, and only then, do we talk procedures. This is the honest midlife conversation about what works, what doesn't, and what is marketing. WE GO DEEP ON Why facelifts have gone mainstream and the Kris Jenner / Denise Richards effect SMAS vs. deep plane vs. ponytail lift, explained in plain English The natural stack that actually works BEFORE surgery (the autojuvenation method) When it IS actually time to consider surgery, and when to wait The simple 6-product skincare routine for every midlife woman Clean skincare: what is real, what is marketing fear Sunscreen truth: mineral vs. chemical, and the brands he actually recommends Collagen supplements: the research, the dose, what to look for on the label Red light therapy: does it actually work, and the masks worth the money Botox honestly: the 2025 CDC counterfeit warning and how to stay safe Filler, pillow face, and why we are in the anti-filler era BBL danger: the deadliest cosmetic surgery and how to lower the risk The ONE thing every midlife woman should do this week This is not a product pitch. This is the conversation that gives you control. TIMESTAMPS 00:00 — Facelifts have gone mainstream 18:00 — Simple skincare that actually works 32:00 — Collagen, red light, and what the research says 45:00 — Botox and filler, the honest truth 58:00 — BBL, autojuvenation, and the ONE thing this week Learn More About Dr. Anthony Youn Instagram ➜ https://www.instagram.com/tonyyounmd  Website ➜ http://dryoun.com  Podcast ➜ The Doctor Youn Show     Thank you to our show sponsors:  TIMELINE: Timeline is offering 20% off your order of Mitopure!

But this time, Will made a pit stop at Summer House, so he’s prepared to dive even deeper into Scamanda. This week was loaded with ideas that seemed unbelievable, from a married couple’s 7-year dry spell to the starting age for Botox treatments. They have a controversial message for Kyle about mock-neck sweatshirts, along with some harsh truths about Amanda’s plans. Plus, Will and Rider wonder if every friend group thinks they’re as attractive as this cast is, on a new episode of Pod Meets Twirl'd: Metropolitan Mess!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We also discuss some of the skincare procedures you should NEVER do and, of course, the ones worth doing.

Visit https://podcastchoices.com/adchoices In this episode of The Rachel Hollis podcast, she playfully explores the idea of entering a “hot era” by investing more intention into personal appearance and self-confidence, arguing that when people feel attractive, they often feel more empowered, energized, and confident in every area of life. Drawing from her own experiences with things like lash extensions, hair extensions, Botox, wardrobe changes, and beauty routines, she emphasizes that these choices are not about pleasing others but about making oneself feel good and worthy of care. Throughout the episode, she encourages listeners to stop limiting themselves with labels like “I'm not that kind of girl,” and instead embrace whatever changes—big or small—help them feel more vibrant, confident, and excited about life, whether that means updating their closet, trying a new beauty treatment, or simply highlighting their favorite feature.
