05.31.26 | IT IS CONTAGIOUS | PASTOR TODD SMITH

Remember how yesterday we talked about Jesus and Peter needing to pay their taxes, and Jesus tells Peter to do what he's always done – go fishing. But this would be a completely different fishing experience because this time, Peter was fishing with Jesus – and Jesus is the difference maker. God had perfectly aligned just the right fish with a valuable coin in its mouth to bite Peter's hook. That coin was the extraordinary way Jesus would provide that day. Right place at the right time. Not an accident – absolutely miraculously divine. Well let me tell you what happened yesterday at retreat. We had taken a train from Venice to Lake Garda. Not the original train we had planned – a different train, so our arrival had been a little delayed. Once at the lake, we hopped on our private chartered boat for the most gorgeous adventure. About 1 hour into our adventure on the water, our captain drove the boat under the drawbridge of a castle where we docked for lunch. At the precise moment all 11 of us are stepping off our boat, a frantic mother comes running up screaming, “Have you seen my son?” She can barely put together a cohesive sentence. “My son, my son, he's missing. 5 years old. My son.” All the BIG Life girls spring into action. We scatter in all directions, yelling, “5 year old boy. White shirt. Missing.” Most everyone we encounter responds with, “Haven't seen him” then continues on with their day. But not my girls – we're searching for this missing boy. It's one thing to be missing your child in a crowd. It's another thing to be missing your child in a crowd on the edge of deep water. We all felt the desperation. Eventually, far from where we had started, someone heard us and shouted back, “He's here!” We found him. And he was in the complete opposite direction of where the mother had run. There was no way the boy would have heard his mom. There was no way she was going to find him with such a distance between them. BUT GOD. God perfectly placed a boat full of 11 BIG Life Girls from all the way around the world at precisely the right moment to step onto that dock, hear her desperate cry and spread out on a mission to find her boy. Watching that reunion left every one of us in tears. Right place, right time. We got to be part of Jesus' extraordinary plans. We were the fish with the coin. Ordinary girls with a changed travel plan, stepping on shore later than scheduled, equipped with precisely what was needed. That, my friends, is how God works! Now, let's go even further. Here in Venice we seem to be having encounters with hurting souls in need of the Jesus we carry. I bet it's not just Venice – I bet it's in your town too. Hurting souls – they're absolutely everywhere. In need of what we have. But have you ever just gotten in your own way? Have you ever talked yourself right out of doing precisely what the Holy Spirit has prompted you to do? Have you ever felt way too ordinary to be used for God's extraordinary purposes? How can you possibly be their answer? Well, you're not their answer. You simply CARRY THEIR ANSWER! Remember that. You're a contagious carrier of Jesus. Allow contact so it spreads! That's it. Why make it more complicated than that? Here's the barrier with the hurting souls we've been coming into contact with here in Venice … we don't speak their language and they don't speak ours. Well that's simply NOT a problem for our EXTRAORDINARY GOD! Let me tell you a little story from your Bible. Imagine you're in the middle of this story. Okay, picture this … you’re one of Jesus’ closest friends. You’ve given up your job and your home, you’ve left everything and everyone you’ve ever known, to go with Jesus on his mission. You've been personally walking with Jesus. You've been part of some absolutely crazy miracles. You've seen his power. You know it's real. And you thought you would be doing this with Jesus for the rest of your life. But just 3 years into you and your tribe of 12 doing all these miraculous things, Jesus gets killed. Your leader is crucified. And now what? It’s easy for us to rush to the rest of the story, but remember this – Jesus’ friends didn’t know the rest of the story as they were sitting in it. They never saw this hardship coming. They never, in a million years, thought Jesus could be killed. Now what were they going to do? They had given up everything to go with him. They are afraid. Afraid they too would be killed. Afraid everything they had believed in and worked for was ruined. They were confused. Then, Jesus shows up in the room where they are hiding. Now remember, Jesus has died. They saw him hanging on the cross. They knew his body was put in the tomb. They also knew the doors to the room where they were hiding were locked. And boom, here’s Jesus, standing right there among them. And this is what Jesus says to them, Mark 16:15, “Go into all the world and preach the Good News to everyone.” Then Jesus is taken into heaven. Jesus tells them to go. But HOW? Jesus, how are we supposed to go into ALL the world and preach to EVERYONE? We don’t have an airplane. The internet sucks here. We are poor fishermen, how are we supposed to go do all of this? We have no education. We have no resources. We have no connections. Jesus, I heard what you said, but we're just so ordinary. For 10 days they waited. For 10 days they must have wondered how Jesus expected them to tell everyone about God. For 10 days they must have felt so unequipped and unqualified for the calling. But on the 10th day, they were all together for the day of Pentecost. This was the day all of Israel gathered in Jerusalem to offer to God their first harvest of wheat for the season. There were people from Judea, people from Asia, people from Egypt and Rome, people from every nation all gathered to make their offering. Also there were Jesus’ 12 friends, his disciples. Suddenly God’s power came and rested on each of them and Acts 2:4 says, “Everyone present was filled with the Hoy Spirit and began speaking in other languages, as the Holy Spirit gave them this ability.” These ordinary men spoke Aramaic, but now filled with the Holy Spirit, they were speaking every language of the entire crowd. All of these people from every nation, all with their own languages, miraculously heard the magnificent acts of God being declared in THEIR OWN language. This is how God would use these 12 common friends of Jesus to fulfill his purposes. This is how they would go into ALL the world and preach the Good News to EVERYONE as Jesus had told them. God would do it through them in ways they could have never imagined. He would speak through them. His power would flow from them. He would give them the words which they couldn’t even possibly know. Literally a different language – hundreds of languages, spoken perfectly through common men who were unsure how God could use them. Now, back to you, Miss Ordinary. Why not you? Whatever it is that has been blocking you from being the hands and feet of Jesus wherever you are – you just need to know the Holy Spirit can perfectly equip you with absolutely anything and everything needed to spread what you're carrying. You're a contagious carrier of Jesus. Make contact! How exactly? Well I don’t know. When exactly? Well I don’t know that either. But here’s what I do know … you will have to show up unsure, uncertain, feeling totally unequipped, and be available for God’s Spirit to equip you. The disciples spent 10 days wondering how they were ever going to do what Jesus had asked them to do. It seemed an impossible task for them to tell the world about the good news of Jesus. And in that 10 days, they must have been drawing maps and making plans. They must have been overwhelmed with such a huge task and unanswered questions. Just like you … you’re in your 10 day waiting period that may have stretched out to cover a few years. You’re waiting and wondering. Questioning. Planning and preparing, but all of it seems inadequate. But my sister, the answers you’re seeking can’t be found in your elaborate 10 year plans. These answers are only found in the power of the Holy Spirit. God will equip you! He will enable you to do what you’ve never done before. He will bring everything together just as it needs to be, and you just need to show up and be available for it. At the end of Acts chapter 2, we see what God was doing by enabling Jesus' 12 friends to speak all these different languages – THREE THOUSNAD WERE BAPTIZED THAT DAY!!!!!!!!!!! What the Bible doesn’t tell us is the conversation Jesus’ friends must have had AFTER Pentecost. Imagine their after work dinner that night. Matthew says, “Dude, I was speaking to an Egyptian in his language, saying things I don’t even know how to say.” Then John says, “Dude, me too! Did you hear me talking in Latin?” And of course, here comes my favorite, wild and impulsive Peter and he says, “Guys, I don’t even know what language I was speaking, but that was awesome!!!” Then there’s a pause and they all realize … ohhhhh, so THIS is how we’re going to go into all the world and preach the Good News to all people.” God has given us the power to do it and it’s already started. Now, let's just keep going! You are the contagious carrier of what every person in this world needs. You're surrounded by hurting souls who are desperate for the Jesus you carry within you.

Pastor Andy preaches over Acts 2:1-13 on May 24, 2026.

Dr. Tamsin Astor is a neuroscientist who studies habits in teams. She is a habit and leadership strategist and helps leaders and organizations transform the way they work, connect, and live — by linking the tiny, daily habits we overlook to the big, legacy-level visions we care about most. With a PhD in Cognitive Neuroscience and 20+ years of research-driven practice, she blends habit science, mindfulness, and conscious leadership to help high-impact humans regulate their nervous systems, deepen trust with their teams, and lead from presence rather than pressure. Her work sits where evidence-based psychology meets humanity. Through workshops, retreats, executive coaching, and long-term organizational partnerships, she brings leaders back to their Big Juicy Why: so decisions feel aligned, relationships strengthen, and teams thrive without burnout or emotional leakage. She is known for her bold honesty, contagious joy, and ability to turn complex inner work into accessible frameworks like Pause – Notice – Choose, making emotional intelligence practical instead of theoretical. Her programs weave neuroscience with story, embodiment, and humor, helping people feel both seen and stretched — supported and challenged — grounded and awake. Tamsin has built her career on one truth: when leaders are regulated, resourced, and rooted in purpose, everything changes. Work cultures soften. Innovation returns. People feel safe enough to contribute, speak up, and stay. And success becomes rich, relational, and sustainable: not just profitable. She's a mother of three, a lover of live music, travel, dark roast coffee, smoky street tacos and museums, and a regular at Zen meditation sessions and life drawing classes. She believes in truth over polish, connection over performance, and building lives: not just résumés. Her children have been the greatest source of inspiration and learning as she has navigated hospital wards in oncology, nephrology, otolaryngology, immunology, psychiatry, cardiology in her 22 years of parenting! Tamsin has recently launched a new podcast titled HOT HABITS with DR TAMSIN PODCAST.

In this powerful message, Bishop Omar Thibeaux teaches that envy is not only destructive — it is contagious. Through the story of Jacob and Laban, this episode explores how favor attracts envy, how envy spreads through families and social circles, how it reveals itself in a person's countenance, and how believers can protect their hearts through salvation, Scripture, prayer, and renewed thinking.

Do you often feel like your homebase emotionally is a little … chaotic? Kiera reminds listeners that having a "calm" practice doesn't necessarily mean having a slow practice; rather, it's an intentional place, and it's worth existing in. Episode resources: Subscribe to The Dental A-Team podcast Schedule a Practice Assessment Leave us a review Transcript: The Dental A Team (00:00) Hello, Dental A Team listeners. This is Kiera and today is such a great day. It's podcast day and I'm so excited to be here with all of you. I hope that you're excited for today. And again, I hope that you just remember that we are truly so blessed and so lucky to be living in the world of dentistry. I love being in dentistry. I love helping people have smiles. I love that like smiles are contagious, that good dentistry is contagious, that great teams are contagious. And today, today's podcast is   ⁓ calm is contagious and so is chaos. And, I think a calm practice model is really something that's going to help high performing offices feel easier. And I was actually talking to one of my business coaches the other day and he said, Kiera, I just want you to know that chaos is contagious. And so is calm. ⁓ our company is going through some really evolutionary changes. I'm very excited about them, but at the same time, I've made the joke that sometimes I feel like an orange juice being squoze. And the other day told my husband, was like, no, no.   that's too much juice that comes out of one squeeze, I actually feel like an olive. Like you are pressing everything out of me to get one teeny tiny drop of olive juice ⁓ or olive oil. And I just feel like sometimes practice owners, might feel this way. Office managers, you might feel this way where ⁓ sometimes that chaos is very, very contagious. And sometimes I think we accidentally live there. That might be our emotional home that we live in. It might be the place that we naturally go back to. And so just thinking that maybe there is another path.   maybe you coming in with a space in the center of calm and seeing how your team and your patients respond to that rather than coming in with this chaos. I did the trend, the AI trend where you ask chat GPT to make you a character based on what it knows about you. And it was fascinating for me because the character I got was me in a business suit. was holding papers. had traction in the background. had, it was kind of this like a tornado flurry behind me and I was holding a barbell weight because I do like to work out.   and I was in a black and white, so black skirt, white shirt, like holding this barbell weight in my hand and there's a tornado coming down behind me with like papers kind of flying and it was like, you're in this building phase of a little bit of chaos and this tornado. And then I decided to ask it like, well, based on where you know our company is going and where you know I'm going, build me a picture that looks like that. And it was fascinating because there was me in a cream suit, no black and white.   I was sitting there actually barefoot. So I'm in like a very professional suit. My arms were folded. I was very much at like peace and calm and ease. was at, there was like a sun. So it was like Hawaii slash Greece. Like I love to travel, but it was behind me. So was like no longer chasing or striving. was there. Family was incorporated rather than like being there. Working was part of my like Zen. And that's the image that I hold. And I think that that analogy and that story hopefully just shows that both are real.   I'm the same person and I'm living in a world of chaos or I'm living in a world of calm. And even my body feels better when I think about me being calm. And I think that there's times of chaos and there's times of calm. And I was actually chatting with my therapist the other day and we were talking about this like chaos versus calm, this force versus flow, this like drive and hit results versus like, you know, have flow. And she said, Kiera, it's kind of like being in a kayak. And she said, you know, a lot of people are trying to like force.   So you get in the kayak and you're rowing upstream and you're like working really, really, really, really hard to get somewhere, but you're going against everything. And it really is chaotic and you get exhausted and you get burnout. And I think so many practices feel this way. And she's like, versus Kiera, think what you think of calm or flow is like, you just get in the kayak, put your hands in the air and let go of the paddle and you just float wherever you're going to go. And she said, that's actually not flow, that's apathy. She said, flow or this calm is when you're actually in the kayak and you're looking ahead.   and you see rapids or you see a rock and you like put the paddle in to steer around it. And then when it's calm, you actually enjoy that calm rather than having your focus so far down that you're afraid of the rapids that you forget to enjoy the moment you're in today. And hopefully with some of those analogies I've given and some of those examples, you can see yourself in a practice of both of these are contagious. You can be the Kiera and the tornado where it's like, I got the barbell and I'm doing it all, but I'm exhausted and there's a smile, but it's a fleeting smile.   or there can be this calm and centered. And so today, just helping you realize that like a calm practice is not a slower one. It's a very intentional, right? Like me having two businesses, a lot of business owners, when you look at them, a lot of our multimillion, I'm talking my five, 10, 15, 20, $30 million practices, it's very different who that owner is compared to my like startup one, two, $3 million. And what I've noticed, and even some of the five, 10, 15, I'm not saying just when you hit a certain dollar amount, you become this.   But what I do see is these owners are very intentional with their time. One that runs a $30 million organization, works out, doesn't have any apps on their phone, ⁓ has another side business. They're running all these practices. But when you meet this person, you don't feel that anxiousness. You feel this like very much like they're willing to just sit down and have coffee with you and chat with you about your life.   It's very fascinating. And so I also hope that you realize like calm is not a indicator that you're a slower practice. It's an indicator that you're intentional and chaos is not an indicator of growth. think sometimes even for myself, it's like, but if we're having chaos, it's like what I'm darting through traffic, am I really making progress or does it just feel good to have an adrenaline rush? And so chaos is not a sign of growth. Most of the time chaos means that there's missing structure. Now there's going to be times, right? There will be times of rapids. There will be times of   boulders coming down the river, but we don't have to stay there and we don't have to live there. And so I just wanted to kind of go through today a couple of quick tips that I see of these calm, like flourishing, thriving, imagine me sitting there, cream colored suit, very calm. Like literally that's the image that I have in my mind of who I want to be and the practice I want to have and the business I want to create. Because to me, that's more sustainable. That's more fun for my team. It's more fun for me.   And so just going through that. if you guys don't know who we are, I'm Kiera Dent Dental A Team. I'm obsessed with all things dentistry. Our philosophy of Dental A Team is to positively impact the world of dentistry in the greatest way possible and to literally break through the myth that to have a successful practice, you have to be stressed. You have to have chaos. I do believe running a successful practice should be easy and it can be easy with the right team that's empowered. I believe you can have it all. And so ⁓ really truly, I wanna just help you see that like,   You are not always just going to be calm and you're not always going to be chaotic. There's going to be that. But what is your baseline center that you go back to? I think is more of what it is. And for someone like Kiera, who chat GPT says there's a tornado around. I actually just got back from a trip and my team said, Kiera, you feel so calm. And I do think that there's intentionality behind it. I want to show up differently. And I think there's a few best practices that I'm happy to share. So I think calm comes from predictability, not personality. ⁓ I'm a very vibrant human and yet there's calm that comes from predictability. So   Like when we look at this, it's consistent scheduling patterns. It's hitting our daily targets. It's making sure we know our profit margins. It's making sure that our whole team is following structure and processes. And so when we go through a practice assessment with new offices, we talk about, you have a vision and a 10 year target together? And does your team actually know where we're headed? Then do we use KPIs and data to make decisions? Are we profitable? And do we have our systems documented and in place? And do we have right people, right seats?   And then based on those answers, it usually determines if we're stressed out or not. And usually that stress level influences the rest of those other items within a circle. And the more stressed the doctor is, usually the lower those numbers are. And so when we look at it of how do we have like what a good day looks like in our practice, how do we have our systems being documented and followed by all? How do we ensure that we have the correct processes and flow and scheduling and all of that? It does not happen overnight, but it is being very intentional. And I will say a crazy schedule.   creates KZ dental practices, not scheduling and driving patients to where we want them to schedule rather than saying, where do you want to schedule? All these little, little minute decisions that we make throughout our day, how we communicate, they actually create more or less chaos. Having said structured meetings, I will tell you the practice that is multi-millions, 10, 15, 20, 30. I'm not joking. Every single department, every single practice meets every single week for meetings. It's structured. There's agendas. There's accountability. And my company,   Mondays are meeting days. have our leadership meeting. We have our marketing and client success meeting. We have our consultant meeting. Like we are very, very, very intentional. I meet with my executive assistants and we go through everything. Everything is mapped out. There are agendas. There's follow through. There's follow up. We have tracking systems for it. We review our numbers. We have a scorecard. And this is what we teach practices to do. And I think when you have that predictability as an owner, usually your stress comes from people not doing the jobs that you think that they should be doing.   or cashflow. Typically, those are like one of the two areas that you're stressed out. Sometimes there's other things, but usually it's one of those two levers of a practice. ⁓ And then like you just feel the weight of it all on yourself. So then you run around crazy creating this tornado and then you are stressed out. And so for this of how do we actually build this structure for our team? And so I feel like if you are driving, sometimes you can actually be driving and hitting huge numbers and huge success, but you feel like you're exhausted at the end of the day. And I feel like where's the and can we have   great success in production and happiness where we're leaving the end of the day. The answer is yes, but it's intentional, it's designed and it's slowly chipping away. Just like with like a lot of compliance things, we're not going to be compliant overnight. You're not going to be this calm practice overnight, but I would look at your practice and I would do a little autopsy of it, of where is the bulk of your stress coming from? I can't tell you how often I do this. It's usually when I'm very stressed. I try to do it at least once every three to six months of what's causing me the most amount of stress and where can we fix systems? Where can I delegate and elevate?   And then how can I actually be more intentional and show up better? I've learned that having meetings right at 8 a.m. stresses me out to no end, especially on Monday mornings. So we've moved those to where I have them at 10, 30 or 11 so I can come in prepared and I'm not showing up frantic. So whatever your rhythm is, whatever your model is, I really do believe take an audit of your practice and let's see where we could be 1 % more intentional. And don't worry, you can have a whole running list, but we've got to prioritize the top one or two things. That's what we as consultants are really good at doing is practices usually have like.   I wanna do everything and that's the chaos like throw up. And we're like, perfect, let's like dig through and sort through and like, let's work with this and this. These two items are gonna reduce your stress dramatically right away. So I would recommend like, look to see where you feel the most unpredictable, the most stressed and let's identify that and let's either elevate and delegate or create systems and processes or fix it to figure out what it is. Maybe you're not looking at the numbers consistently. Maybe you're scheduling a psychotic. Maybe we're not closing enough cases.   there is usually one or two massive pain points. And if we just fix those one or two, you're actually gonna move from that chaos to calm very quickly. And what you'll see is a result of actually exponential growth. So the next ⁓ piece that I've noticed with these calm versus chaotic practices is calm practices remove the decision fatigue. So you're not sitting there making decision after decision after decision, right? We have a set process of how we schedule. We have a set process of how we hire. We have a set process of how we...   set up a room for filling our crown. We have a set process for how we run our leadership meetings. We have a set process for how we terminate people. That is like, I feel as a business owner, and Jason and I talk about it a lot, it's like death by a thousand cuts. And I'm like, I don't want to answer another freaking question. If I see another Slack message, like I'm out and it's just because you're just pecked to death with decision after decision after decision. But to me, that's an indicator of we lack systems and we lack accountability to those systems. So what we can do is like,   doctors where you may be the bottleneck, like what's one or two things where you're like, I am pecked to death on these questions. Great. Who really should own that? And how can we delegate and elevate to that person where we're not being apathy, we're not in the kayak or we're just throwing the paddle in the water and saying, take me where you want me. It's, very intentional with this. So there's less decisions that need to be made. I will tell you, this is a, this is a snowball approach and it feels like you will never get there. And you slowly start adding pieces one by one, by one, by one, by one.   and that snowball starts to compact and it feels like it's so fluffy and it's not getting together. And then we start to roll it and it gets a little bit bigger and a little bit bigger and a little bit bigger, meaning less and less and less is sitting on your shoulders. A lot of times through this, you can actually go through those matrix where it says like, what are you good at? you, and you love doing what are you good at, but you hate doing, what do you want to be good at? But you're actually not good at it. And what do you like not good at and hate doing? You can actually start to categorize your, ⁓ your tasks within those that oftentimes helps you figure out where to delegate.   where to elevate. I think doctors and OMS who do this together, you might be able to find these gaps. So we remove that decision fatigue because owner doctors, you're not the only one who has this office managers. You're also having it to where you're just like, we have a team member, Kaylee, and she like taught elementary school for quite some time. And she'd be like, my lid is flipped. And it's like, there's just too much on us that creates that chaos. And either what we do is then we stay in that chaos or we become apathetic and we just stop caring. And that's where it leads to burnout. And so how can we have like,   Systemization, and like I said, it's not an overnight sensation. Dental A Team has so many systems, we've got so many processes, we've got onboarding, we've got terminating, we've got documents, we've got resources, we have people to help out, we've got tons of set processes and systems for you. And I think once you have that, you can then start to have ownership. We can have defined decisions. And then we also have documented standards. You start to build what's called a knowledge base. There's a great book called Come Up for Air that really talks about how to systematize this.   And it's not rigidity, it's just relief. Like the team now knows like, okay, when one plus one, like it's two and we do this. If it's red and green, we do this. They're not having to sit there and be like, hey doctor, what do you want me do for this? Hey, what do you want me to do for this? Like even for myself, like people are like, well, what do you want for birthday gifts? And I finally called Britt last night and I said, Britt, we just need a process for this. Like it's getting too large and too big. And I'm realizing these are decisions I don't need to be making constantly, but they just run in the back of the white noise. And I think,   once you commit to, I'm gonna be calm and profitable, you start to realize these things that are just pecking you to death and we start to make changes for it. And so I just want you to know that like very sophisticated practice owners actually make less and less decisions. I will also say that it's an identity loss and an identity shift that a lot of these owners feel because you're so used to being the go-to girl or guy that everything's coming through and you're like, I don't want that anymore. So then when people stop needing you, it becomes weird. And you actually sometimes,   Myself, I'm only speaking for Kiera. You might not be this way and I hope you're not You might actually go create chaos to feel important. So also look at yourself and sometimes we've been in this chaos I don't know like Psychoticness I've been there I've lived there to where that feels comfortable for me and when I'm calm and things are not broken Sometimes I wonder like what's going on and I go and create chaos So I think also know thyself and watch yourself to see like what is a decision that I'm making constantly that I could have someone else make   I think having a really good org chart or accountability chart has really streamlined it for us. had a great fractional COO come into our company. She organized it really well for us. And it was like, so I literally pulled out the legend. I'm like, okay, this decision should go to this person. And it's a reworking and I'm not going to lie to you. I felt like we were a snow globe that was shaken up and it lasted for about three months of just pure hell and chaos. But then it started to shift down and it was like, perfect. Britt makes these decisions. Shelbi makes these decisions. Tiff makes these decisions. Paul, Jenna.   down the line, Doug, Tyler, all of our team, these are the decisions are capable of making. And then when something comes up, people are like, Hey, who is this? And we all talk about like, based on the job duties, based on the job descriptions, this should go under this person. And then how can we give them the autonomy and the guidance to where I'm not answering every single decision, but we've got enough guidance around it to where I'm not having to answer every single one of these questions. So I'd say right now is a quick call to action on that is   figure out what decisions are coming past your desk every single day that you're like, this is not sustainable. And then let's create a delegation elevation and a system in a process to make it to where these decisions are not coming by you. And then point three that I want to make is calm is a leadership signal, not just a feeling. And so when I look at it, you can actually see how doctors operate. So a very chaotic practice is doctors rush, team fails, that patients fail it, mistakes increase. Calm leaders,   pause instead of react, they address issues early and they protect recovery times. Like there's literally CEO time built into their schedule. And what it looks like is when we have this of ⁓ running frantic and everybody's feeling it and we're making very like in the minute decisions. I started like figuring it out where we have an agenda and we actually, it's our parking lot. And that has saved me so much of those like on the fly decision-making. It's like, nope, put it there. If it's not something that has to be answered life or death today.   We actually have it to where I respond to my questions usually once a week with our team. like, you can even just feel like, as I say that, I went from this like, my gosh, it's like bombarding me constantly to I have a set day, I have a set time, my team knows when I'm gonna respond to them. They can get back. Now you might be like, well, Kiera, patients are calling. 95 % of the patient issues, like there's some that need to have emergent issues. And I still have a folder that is must do today. Usually there are two items in that folder every single day that are absolute must do today.   And half of those actually aren't even like must do's today. So for you to have a like, this is when I have, like, this is when we answer questions. These are my meetings. People just park their issues that they need from me. I've had doctors where they're just being bombarded by team members. Team members, you're not doing it wrong. Doctors just are like trying to do a filling, trying to go and do this exam, try to stay on time, try to sell treatment, try to make sure everything's running. And then you guys are coming in like, Hey, did you get this Invisalign case? Hey, did you get this crown? Hey, hey, hey.   And if you guys have read the book, the one minute manager, it's like a monkey being put on your back or my friend described it as a magnet. We're like, you're just like dumping them or as like an office manager, she's like sticky notes compiling over you to where we've actually done it for offices, whatever your path is. If it's like we have a Google doc, everybody just dumps it there. We review it once a week. Fantastic. Or I've had some doctors where they have like a list outside their office where people just go and write it they put the due date on it. So that way it can be again, a consolidated time. You review this during your CEO time, but like you can even just feel that it's like,   It's a calming, it's a how do we operate? I'm not gonna run in this like frantic frazzled and you just let people know it's not fair for the team. It's not fair for patients and it's not fair for you to be making all these decisions haphazardly. And so I think just like when we actually look at this, doctors take their CEO times. I call it deep work time for myself. It's blocked in my schedule. It's taken me about a month to get my schedule there. I like it in the mornings. I don't like meetings in the mornings like.   I have a very, very, very structured of when I like to do it. They also figured out me when I used to do podcast recording, like it just was not working and serving. So I think even if you are a seasoned practice owner and you've done this before, look to see where can this be refined? Where can we make it towards it? More of your operating style, but literally stop skipping our CEO time every single week. I've seen practices that don't like that's all like doctors just own their power time, their CEO time, office managers and front office team members own that. We do it for about a month. Nothing else changes.   team starts to notice, things start to get done more effectively, tone starts softening, communication improves and culture actually elevates. And so if you do nothing else other than just like hold your CEO time to where you make decisions rather than being frantic and on the fly, you're going to actually have a lot more calm. So as we look through this, like I said, calm is contagious and so is chaos. And I think which...   It's almost like, you know how they say, you've got like an angel and a devil sitting on either side of you, or there's like a Indian, Native American story where it's like, which wolf am I feeding in the inside? Which one am I feeding? Am I feeding the calm side of me or the chaos side of me more every day? And our decisions are actually serving the calm side or the chaos side. And like I said, it does not mean less growth. It does not mean less anything other than more stability, more ease, more true flow.   And so for you, just look at it like, how can we increase our predictability? How can we reduce unnecessary decisions? And how can we lead with regulated energy and structure? So that way everyone's on the same page. I think like calm is not the absence of pressure. It is the presence of structure. And when I heard that, I thought like, gosh, that's so solid because pressure is still going to come. And I my husband and I, were walking the other day and   Some things happened in the company and I just said like, Jace, this is just like another stroke or color or flavor of business. Like that's all it is. This is part of it. Like it's not gonna go away. These things, it's not like we'll have a marathon and we'll get to the end line and like all of our problems will suddenly be dissolved. It's just, how are we able to contain that? How do we navigate through that? How do we respond to that? And are we more on the calm side or the chaos side? And I will say this is a habit. It is not something that most people are born innately with.   I will say it's discipline and it's dedication and it's following through. But really I think it's who do you want to be as a leader? What do you want to show up for me? I just realized like I'm not showing up as the best wife. I'm not showing up as the best sibling. My siblings would call me and I just like they would wait weeks on ends before I'd respond to them. And I'm like, that's just not who Kiera wants to be anymore. ⁓ Kiera wants to be the sister, the mother, the wife that can come in and show up in a way where my family gets the best of me, not just work. I wanted to come in where work was getting the best of me and I wasn't being   like barky on all of my decision making and being annoyed. Team members would say like, here we used to brace asking you for things like you're always polished, you're always professional. But like we know there's this air of annoyance. And for me, my team deserves better. I deserve better. My family deserves better. And I think there is a different and a better way to live if you choose it. So I think like if your practice is feeling just maybe heavy, ⁓ it's not a failure. It's just a signal. And oftentimes I think when you decide to commit to this,   It unlocks a lot of like refinement in the practice and unlocks a lot of systems that we could do. It unlocks leadership opportunities that doesn't have to just sit on your shoulders anymore. And so I think this is some of our favorite work in Dental A Team because it helps us like practices are able to feel this release immediately. We're able to quickly like navigate and streamline. So if that's feeling like you or you're like, gosh, Kiera, you're speaking directly to me, which I know a lot of you feel, reach out, Hello@TheDentalATeam.com or go to our website and click the book of call. It can just be like, let's talk through this and let's give you some tangible tactical ideas.   to help take you from where you are to where you wanna go. Whether you work with us or don't, you will leave that call with tactical resources. You see a map of like, where am I today versus where I wanna go, like I was explaining. And it's actually one of the most fulfilling things for me is to be able to do that for practices to where you can actually see that. So reach out, I'd love to do it. It's no pressure, totally complimentary and just giving you kind of a baseline of where you are. Or if you're like, my gosh, like I need the help, reach out. This is literally what we specialize in. This is what we're experts in and it's what we're obsessed with doing.   So reach out because this is the time for you to choose to have growth and calm, not one or the other. And I believe that the best practices have that. So you guys, is your chance. This is the time. Reach out if there's any way we can support you. And as always, thanks for listening. I'll catch you next time on the Dental A Team Podcast.  

Bruce & Gaydos share the latest information we have on the Hantavirus outbreak.

Tyler Kelbert and Dayna Gamba: Depot North America and What a Real Brand Relationship Looks LikeSome brands want your following. This one wants you.Recorded live at ABS Chicago with co-host Geno Chapman, Corey sits down with barbers Tyler Kelbert and Dayna Gamba, two of the newest additions to the Depot North America team. The conversation covers what drew them to the brand, what the product has been like behind the chair, and why Depot's culture feels different from anything else in the barber space. Tyler tells the story of doing 365 consecutive days of content twice. Dayna talks about using her chair to quietly change lives. Two barbers. Two ways of showing up. Both doing it right.What Is DepotDepot is an established European men's grooming brand covering scalp health, hair, skin, body, and scent. The US launch is building deliberately. Products are organized by numbers: pre-wash in the 100s, washing in the 200s, styling in the 300s. Tyler's go-to is the 304, a strong-hold product that holds all day. Dayna's clients are already asking to cocktail products and wanting more. Distribution is still being worked out but the demand is there.The Culture Is the ProductDepot does not require influencer status. No follower count minimum. They want authentic artists who are good at what they do. Corey and Geno, who spent time with the Depot and Milkshake teams in Ibiza, came away with the same read: family, not a hair brand. Tyler put it plainly... if you're a good barber and you're not a dickhead, there's probably a home for you here.What Dayna Brought to the RoomTyler called out Dayna's positivity as one of his biggest takeaways. She'd flip a negative into something constructive without missing a beat. Contagious. Twenty-three years in the industry, time with Orbe and Davines, and a genuine belief that Depot fills gaps the barber space has been missing. She also runs a charity raffle out of her salon. The prize is free haircuts for a full year. Tickets run $20 to $50 and every dollar goes to a family in need. Quiet generosity. No big following required.Tyler's 365 Days of Content... TwiceFirst run was great for his career and rough on everything else. The second time he came in with a plan, used AI for content ideas, built variety across tutorials, education, humor, and unboxings, and thought about it from the consumer side first. He also brought a carry-on full of outfit changes to the salon every day. His coworkers thought he was out of his mind. Eventually he figured out nobody's watching that closely. It was always about the content.Depot is actively building its US team. Real artists. No ego. Throw your hat in.

In this episode, I talk about the destructive and constructive power of emotional contagion.

In this episode of Storage Wins, Alex Pardo works with Dan Wentzel through one of the most critical inflection points in the entire journey so far. After consistently taking action, making offers, and having conversations, Dan finds himself stuck in a frustrating cycle—doing the work, but expecting the same disappointing outcome every time.   What unfolds is a powerful shift away from tactics and into the internal game. Alex identifies the real issue immediately: it's not a lack of knowledge, resources, or opportunity—it's a mindset problem. More specifically, it's the expectation that deals won't work out, which is quietly influencing everything from tone and confidence to how Dan shows up in conversations with sellers.   This episode pulls back the curtain on how belief, energy, and communication directly impact results. From self-sabotage and low confidence to timid conversations and lack of frame control, Alex breaks down how these subtle factors are costing opportunities—and how to fix them.   But more importantly, the conversation introduces a new way forward. Instead of trying to control every outcome or force deals to work, the focus shifts to letting go, showing up consistently, and trusting the process. By reframing expectations, protecting confidence, and communicating with conviction, Dan is challenged to break the cycle and step into a new level of performance.   This episode is a turning point—where the realization hits that success isn't just about what you do, but how you think, how you show up, and what you believe is possible.   ⸻   You'll Learn How To:   Break the cycle of expecting negative outcomes from your efforts Identify and eliminate self-sabotaging thought patterns Communicate with more confidence and authority in seller conversations Shift from outcome-based thinking to process-based execution Protect your confidence as your most valuable asset Show up with energy and conviction that builds trust and credibility   ⸻   What You'll Learn in This Episode:   [1:33] Why feeling stuck and discouraged is more common than you think [3:11] Dan's frustration: doing the work but seeing the same results [5:01] The hidden problem: expecting deals to fail before they start [6:20] Why mindset—not tactics—is the real bottleneck [7:49] Protecting confidence as the #1 job of an entrepreneur [9:25] How low confidence shows up in conversations with sellers [11:03] The impact of timid tone and lack of frame control [13:05] Why belief must match communication [14:24] Self-sabotage: how your expectations shape your outcomes [16:05] The shift from chasing deals to evaluating opportunities [18:05] Why sellers need to feel your certainty and conviction [20:06] Contagious enthusiasm and how it influences results [22:28] The importance of asking better questions—not more questions [24:57] Choosing the story you tell yourself about your progress [27:32] Why consistency guarantees results over time [29:50] Letting go of control and trusting the process [31:45] The role of faith and releasing pressure [34:20] Practical ways to shift your energy before key conversations [36:30] Focusing on helping—not closing—the deal [38:45] Why one mindset shift can unlock everything   ⸻   Who This Episode Is For:   Investors who feel stuck despite taking consistent action Listeners struggling with confidence in conversations Anyone dealing with discouragement after repeated "no's" Entrepreneurs who know what to do but aren't seeing results People ready to break through mental barriers and level up   ⸻   Why You Should Listen:   Most people think they need better strategies or more opportunities.   In reality, they need a better mindset.   This episode shows how your expectations, energy, and belief system directly impact your results—and why even the best strategy won't work if your mindset is working against you.   If you've been doing the work but not seeing the results, this conversation will help you identify what's really holding you back—and give you the tools to finally break through.   ⸻   Follow Alex Pardo here:   Alex Pardo Website: https://alexpardo.com/ Alex Pardo Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/alexpardo15 Alex Pardo Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/alexpardo25 Alex Pardo YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@AlexPardo Storage Wins Website: https://storagewins.com/   ⸻   Have conversations with at least three storage owners, brokers, private lenders, or equity partners inside the Storage Wins Facebook Group.

Contagious Conversations is a new series brought to you by ASID, the Australasian Society for Infectious Diseases. Once a month, these podcasts will explore evolving evidence and real-world challenges for the practice of ID medicine. The hope is that you'll come away with practical knowledge to support your clinical confidence and continuous learning.   Expert guests in this series will come from right across the interface of research, clinical care, and public health. Today we start with a paediatrician from Melbourne and a clinical nurse from the Sunshine Coast, who both make an important contribution to Australia's National Immunisation Program. As we'll hear today, public adherence to the NIP has been declining in recent years. In today's conversation we hear about some of the reasons for vaccine hesitancy in parents and ways to reinspire confidence. Guests Professor Margie Danchin FRACP, PhD (University of Melbourne; the Royal Children's Hospital; Murdoch Children's Research Institute)Wendy Tout (Public Health Unit, Sunshine Coast Health Service) HostAssociate Professor Sanjaya Senanayake FRACP (Canberra Hospital; Australian National University; University of New South Wales)ProductionProduction supported by Mic Cavazzini DPhil, the ASID Vaccine Special Interest Group chaired by Dr Archana Koirala and staff support from Inge Meggitt.

“Violence has been misdiagnosed. And there's a misdiagnosis that has caused us to not be able to control it as we could.” — Dr. Gary Slutkin Human violence appears ubiquitous. In Iran. In Gaza. In Ukraine. In Sudan. In American cities and homes. So widespread, indeed, that it seems naturally hardwired into us. Our species-being, so to speak. But, for Dr. Gary Slutkin, there is nothing inevitable about human violence. Slutkin — an epidemiologist who spent years fighting cholera, tuberculosis, and AIDS in Africa before focusing his medical mind on violence — argues that violence is neither a character flaw nor a moral failing. Rather than being baked into our natures, Slutkin sees violence as a contagious disease. It meets the clinical definition of a plague, he says. The more violent our homes, communities, media, politics, the more virally it spreads. Slutkin's new book, The End of Violence: Eliminating the World's Most Dangerous Epidemic, makes the case that violence has been misdiagnosed for centuries. We analyse it as a crime problem, a character problem, an inter-state problem. So we punish, incarcerate and bomb. But none of these approaches confront the contagion. This can only be done, Slutkin argues, with what he calls “violence interrupters” — people from within the infected community who find the most at-risk individuals and cool things down before they escalate. Communities that have applied this approach have seen reductions in violence of 40 to 70 percent, Slutkin boasts, with Cherry Hill, one of Chicago's most dangerous neighbourhoods, experiencing 450 days without a shooting. There will be a time, he promises, when the plague of human violence will be mostly overcome. I hope Dr. Slutkin is correct. But suspect that his brave new violence-free world, like Huxley's, might be simultaneously utopian and dystopian. Five Takeaways •       Violence Meets the Clinical Definition of a Contagious Disease: Slutkin is not speaking metaphorically. Violence meets the definition of a disease: characteristic signs and symptoms causing morbidity and mortality. It meets the definition of contagious: it causes more of itself. One violent event leads to another — in a home, in a community, in a region, in a war. The more you are exposed to it, the more likely you are to do it. This is the same mechanism as measles, as cholera, as COVID. Susceptibility varies — for violence, it has to do with how much you feel humiliated, how much social pain you carry, how much grievance a leader has taught you to feel. But the operating system is the same. •       Violence Has Been Misdiagnosed: For centuries, we have treated violence as a moral failing: a matter of bad people making bad choices. The response has been punishment, incarceration, war. None of these interrupt the contagion. In fact, incarceration concentrates the infection. The misdiagnosis has cost millions of lives. The correct diagnosis — epidemic disease spreading through exposure — changes everything. You don't blame a cholera patient for drinking contaminated water. You don't punish a COVID patient for breathing. You interrupt the spread. You treat the susceptibility. You cool it down. •       Violence Interrupters: The Epidemic Control Playbook: Cure Violence Global trains and deploys violence interrupters: people from the same community, who speak the same language, who have often been involved in violence themselves. Their job is to find the most at-risk individuals — the ones most likely to shoot or be shot next — and intervene before the next event. The approach works. Communities that have applied it have seen reductions of 40 to 70 percent. Over a dozen American cities are at fifty- or sixty-year historic lows. Cherry Hill in Chicago went 450 days without a shooting. Baltimore, New York, and other cities have had similar results. •       Authoritarian Violence Disorder: Chapter eight of The End of Violence is called “Infections of the State.” Slutkin's argument: authoritarian leadership is itself a form of epidemic violence. It spreads violence outward into its own population — through ICE raids, through threats, through the approval and scripting of violence by others. It also spreads it abroad, through war. Violence doesn't know borders. The mechanism is the same: exposure increases transmission; grievance and humiliation increase susceptibility. Trump's Iran war is not just a war. It is authoritarianism causing war. And the spread doesn't stop at the border. •       Uganda Dropped HIV 85 Percent with Behavior Change Alone: In 1987, Slutkin arrived in Uganda, then the most infected country in the world, where a third of the population had what was then a 100 percent lethal disease. Using the epidemic control playbook — no medicines, just behaviour change interventions — they dropped the rate 85 percent. The same approach drove down Ebola, drove down TB long before medication existed. Slutkin's point: we do not need pharmacological intervention to eliminate violence. We need the right people doing the right interventions with the right understanding of how contagion works. We have done it. We can do it again. About the Guest Dr. Gary Slutkin is an epidemiologist and the founder and CEO of Cure Violence Global. He is the author of The End of Violence: Eliminating the World's Most Dangerous Epidemic (Health Communications, Inc., 2026). He is a Professor of Epidemiology and Global Health at the University of Illinois Chicago and a former WHO epidemiologist. References: •       The End of Violence: Eliminating the World's Most Dangerous Epidemic by Gary Slutkin (2026). •       Cure Violence Global — Slutkin's organisation. cvg.org. •       Episode 2887: Steven J.

Everybody says norovirus is everywhere right now, but is this really some huge outbreak, or just the annual stomach-bug blitz tearing through homes, schools, offices, and restaurants all at once? Why does this thing spread so fast, and why are we still so bad at basic contagious-illness etiquette? Dr. Corey Hebert, LSU Health New Orleans, joins Ian Hoch to talk about it.

In this episode, we're talking about contagious leadership. The kind that shapes culture, calls out misalignment, and refuses to protect comfort over truth. This is not about being liked. This is about being responsible for the environment you help create every single day.If you've ever felt the tension between keeping the peace and doing what is right… this conversation is for you.

Each episode centers on practical marketing, sales, and leadership systems that help boutique gyms build steady momentum without guesswork or constant outreach.Episode HighlightsIn today's episode, Jeff Burlingame breaks down why mindset is the number one factor in gym sales, more important than scripts, lead volume, or offer structure. He walks through simple questions every gym owner and coach must answer before they pick up the phone, and shares a practical mantra that makes sales calls feel more like helping a friend than closing a deal.Episode OutlineWhy mindset makes or breaks gym sales.Four core belief questions:  - Does what you sell work?  - Do you believe in what you sell?  - Do you believe in yourself?  - Will this specifically help your ideal client?Clarifying your ideal client and fit.Reframing sales as helping, not pushing.How mindset impacts call reluctance.Creating a personal sales mantra.Contagious energy in sales.Setting up the next step: structured conversationsEpisode Chapters00:00 Intro & show positioning00:28 Jeff's background and sales series purpose01:33 Why mindset drives gym sales success02:04 Q1 – Does what you sell actually work?02:56 Q2 – Do you truly believe in what you sell?03:35 Q3 – Do you believe in yourself?04:11 Q4 – Will this help your ideal client?05:00 Defining your ideal client & program fit06:20 Selling as helping when all answers are “yes”07:43 Call reluctance and heavy-phone feeling08:25 “Born salespeople” vs learned mindset09:10 Creating your personal sales mantra10:38 Short mantra: “I'm here to make a friend”12:15 How mindset causes bad sales months12:55 Positivity vs negativity in sales calls13:40 Getting your team's mindset aligned14:15 Why you need a structured sales conversation nextAction TakenFor owners and coaches:Ask and honestly answer the four belief questions about your service and yourself.  Define your ideal client profile and who your program is best for. Create a personal sales mantra you can repeat before and after calls.Treat each sales interaction as a chance to make a friend and understand someone's problem.  For your team:Run staff through the same belief questions. Share and align on a shared mindset around selling as helping. Encourage the team to track wins and losses as part of their mantra practice.  ConclusionA strong sales month in your gym starts long before the phone rings. When you're clear that your service works, you believe in it, you believe in yourself, and you know exactly who it's for, every sales call turns into a chance to guide someone to their starting line. With a simple mantra to ground you after both wins and losses, you can show up positive, present, and curious—making it easier to pick up the phone, connect with leads, and enroll the right people into your gym.Call to ActionIf you're ready to stop dreading sales and start closing with confidence, share this episode with your team and start answering the four mindset questions together today. 

Danielle DiMartino Booth, CEO of QI Research and former Fed insider, joins Julia to sound the alarm on a U.S. economy she believes is being misread, misreported, and mismanaged. From growing divisions inside the FOMC to deeply troubling labor market signals — including an ISM non-manufacturing employment reading of 45.2 last seen during the Great Recession — Danielle lays out why she believes the Fed is falling dangerously behind. She breaks down the private credit contagion risk, why only 25% of unemployed Americans are collecting benefits, and how student loan repayments, rising gas prices, and tightening lending standards are quietly crushing working families. With a midterm election on the horizon and consumer sentiment crumbling across all income levels, Danielle argues the stakes have never been higher — and that someone needs to start speaking up for everyday Americans.Links: Danielle's Twitter/X: https://twitter.com/dimartinobooth Substack: https://dimartinobooth.substack.com/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@DanielleDiMartinoBoothQIFed Up: https://www.amazon.com/Fed-Up-Insiders-Federal-Reserve/dp/0735211655Timestamps: 0:00 Welcome back Danielle DiMartino Booth 01:00 FOMC minutes: Even more division inside the Fed 4:47 – What happens if no Fed chair gets confirmed? 7:19 – Is the Fed ignoring everyday Americans? 8:51 – ISM data parallels to 2001, 2007, and the Great Recession 10:53 – Job insecurity hitting ALL income levels 15:26 – Stagflation or just stagnation?

In this episode, we are talking about something I both love and deeply struggle with: organization.  If you're a creative entrepreneur, especially in the balloon world, you probably have a space full of color, sizes, bins, tools, samples, etc. (And let's be honest… at least one drawer of shame!)  So I invited Tammy to the show. She is a professional organizer who pivoted from interior design into full time organization. And she's built an entire business helping people get their homes, offices, closets and pantries functioning beautifully. We connected through 17hats, the CRM we both use behind the scenes to run our businesses, and I was excited to have her come on the show to share her knowledge. I wasn't expecting how much balloon and organization services have in common! We're talking about systems, labeling, kids, clutter, inventory, overwhelm, junk drawers, and how organizing one tiny space can actually change your entire workflow.  So if you are like me and you have projects that you know you need to get done before the busy season hits, hopefully this episode gives you some tips and sparks a little bit of motivation to get your balloon space (or just your living space) a little bit more organized.   And thanks once again to this month's presenting sponsor, Tuftex!
