529 plans are one of the most popular ways for families to save for education—but many parents still have questions about how much to contribute and what those funds can actually be used for. In this episode of the White Coat Investor Podcast, Dr. Jim Dahle answers several listener questions about 529 education savings plans, including how much parents might consider saving for a newborn child and how to think about long-term education funding goals. We also discuss the concept of "Trump accounts" (530A accounts) and what these proposed or new account types are intended to do. Finally, we explore whether 529 funds can be used for continuing education expenses such as CME, and how the rules around qualified education expenses actually work. Understanding the details of education savings accounts can help physicians and other high-income professionals plan more effectively for their children's education while staying tax-efficient.

We've spoken with many guests about clinical and technological trends impacting healthcare providers, but less so about the trends on the business side of practicing medicine. So on this episode, we're going to make up for that by spending our time with Dr. Alexander Vaccaro, an influential spine surgeon and president of one of the largest musculoskeletal practices in the U.S. -- Rothman Orthopaedic Institute -- which treats patients at over 40 locations in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York and Florida. While Dr. Vaccaro understands the desire for financial stability that's increasingly driving young physicians into the arms of hospital systems, he worries about what's being lost with the resulting decline in the number of independent practices. “If you didn't have private practice advocating for the doctor, the insurance companies would bully the healthcare profession.” Join Raise the Line host Michael Carrese for a candid and lively conversation that also covers: How physician autonomy and entrepreneurship can drive innovation; The economic and policy forces reshaping private practice medicine; The role of research partnerships between private practices and universities.

We've had many conversations on Raise the Line about the challenges of health communication in today's world of information overload, but none of our guests have the kind of expertise Dr. Tesfa Alexander has acquired in a career that has taken him from Madison Avenue to the halls of government and academia. From guiding tobacco education research at the FDA to leading public health initiatives at MITRE, Dr. Alexander has developed a deep understanding of the science and strategy behind effective health communication. “Successful campaigns keep the long game in mind where you want to develop a lasting relationship with your target audience,” he tells host Lindsey Smith. That relationship needs to be built on understanding culture, beliefs, priorities and daily realities, and only then can you develop messaging that will resonate, he explains. Dr. Alexander also believes these relationships can be leveraged to help people sort out facts from misleading or inaccurate claims. “I strongly recommend shifting our focus from combating misinformation head on, and instead working with the communities who we are seeking to serve.” This fascinating look at communication science also covers: How stories drive belief; The importance of working with community partners who are trusted messengers; The power of audience segmentation. Tune in as Dr. Alexander unpacks what it takes to influence beliefs, and ultimately behaviors, in an era defined by misinformation and institutional mistrust.

We're marking Rare Disease Month 2026 by highlighting the powerful story of Shanthi Hegde, a young patient advocate working to transform how bleeding disorders are understood, treated, and supported. This work is fueled by her own arduous journey with two rare bleeding disorders and immune dysregulatory syndrome, and an extended diagnostic odyssey marked by dismissal, underdiagnosis, and structural bias. “I was told many times by many providers that these disorders are not common in Indians and that my bruises were there just because I'm brown.” Admirably, Shanthi pushed past this mistreatment, advocated for her medical needs, and devoted herself to tackling a range of issues confronting rare disease patients from mental health access to affordable drug pricing to research equity. In this remarkable Year of the Zebra conversation with host Lindsey Smith, you'll also learn about: Shanti's work with the Hemophilia Federation of America; How gaps extend beyond treatment to include insurance coverage, provider training, and substance use care; What clinicians can do to improve the work they do with rare disease patients. Join us for a conversation that connects patient voice to system change, and explores what real equity for rare disease communities will require.

Send a textNew doesn't mean flawless, and we've got the stories to prove it. We pull back the curtain on new construction, showing how well-intended builders and fast-moving subcontractor crews can miss critical details that lead to leaks, hazards, and costly fixes after closing. From window installations done the wrong way for years to nails protruding near a staircase where a toddler could get hurt, we break down what we find, why it happens, and how smart buyers stay ahead of it.We start with the essentials: what a comprehensive home inspection includes for new builds—air and radon testing, sewer and chimney scopes, and even slab elevation mapping to spot early settlement. Then we tackle the big misconception that “it passed code” equals “it's built right.” Code is the legal floor. True quality lives in the manufacturer's installation instructions and building science fundamentals like proper flashing, continuous drainage planes, balanced roof ventilation, and assemblies that match local climate and wind exposure. When something isn't clear, we call the manufacturer and document their guidance so you have leverage to get it fixed correctly.We also examine the subcontractor model and why it complicates accountability. If a builder can't recognize an incorrect install, they can't enforce a correction—and homeowners inherit the risk. We talk through phased inspections—pre-drywall, pre-closing, and targeted reinspects—that catch problems when they're still easy to fix. You'll hear how material choices like foam board sheathing can work in certain contexts but demand proper bracing and detailing, and why house wrap repairs must follow the maker's specs to keep water out for the long haul.If a builder tries to limit your access to your own project, take that as a warning sign. Great teams are proud to show their work and welcome third‑party eyes. Listen for practical tips you can use right now: what to verify, which documents to request, and how to push for manufacturer‑compliant solutions without turning the process adversarial. If you're planning a build or approaching a final walkthrough, this conversation will help you protect your investment and move in with confidence.If this helped you spot what matters, follow the sSupport the showTo learn more about Habitation Investigation, the Three-time Winner of the Best Home Inspection Company in the Midwest Plus the Winner of Consumer Choice Award for Columbus Ohio visit Home Inspection Columbus Ohio - Habitation Investigation (homeinspectionsinohio.com) NBC4 news segments: The importance of home inspections, and what to look for | NBC4 WCMH-TV Advice from experts: Don't skip the home inspection | NBC4 WCMH-TV OSU student's mysterious symptoms end up tied to apartment's air quality | NBC4 WCMH-TV How to save money by winterizing your home | NBC4 WCMH-TV Continuing Education for Ohio Agents Scheduled classes Continuing Education for Ohio Agents Course lis...

In today's VETgirl online veterinary continuing education podcast, we interview Dr. Emmanuel Fontaine, MSc, PhD, DECAR who discusses the importance of Apgar scoring for newborn puppies and kittens. He highlights its role in early detection of neonatal distress, improving survival rates, and promoting structured teamwork during C-sections and neonatal care.
Kurt Von Ahnen discusses in this LMScast episode that continuing education (CE), which is one of the most reliable and scalable options in online learning, is basically corporate training provided in accordance with certification or licensing criteria. He draws attention to the fact that professionals in fields like healthcare, real estate, and technical professions need […] The post The Secret World Of Continuing Education Entrepreneurship appeared first on LMScast.
Few issues have tested public trust in medicine as deeply as vaccines, and few individuals have influenced that dialogue more than Dr. Paul Offit, director of the Vaccine Education Center at the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia and a longtime member of the FDA's Vaccine Advisory Committee. In this timely and candid interview with Raise the Line host Lindsey Smith, Dr. Offit points to this year's severe flu season and a resurgence of measles as alarming proof points of how a changing federal perspective on vaccine policy is having a real impact on public health. “You'd like to think you can educate about the importance of vaccines, but I fear at this point the viruses themselves are doing the educating.” In this wide ranging discussion, Dr. Offit also addresses: The rigorous and painstaking process of developing vaccines, based on his experience co-inventing the rotavirus vaccine. Shifting levels of public trust in scientific organizations. Promising innovations in vaccine development. Don't miss this deeply-informed perspective on the interplay of science, policy, and public education, and his encouraging message to young clinicians about managing the current challenges in public health.

Send a textEver wonder why your windows fog in winter or why the attic sometimes grows frost like a walk-in freezer? We unpack the simple physics behind relative humidity and dew point, then connect those concepts to the real problems homeowners face: condensation on cold surfaces, mold risk in damp basements, and hidden moisture damage in poorly ventilated attics.We start by making humidity intuitive, showing how warmer air carries more water vapor because it has more energy. From there, we explain dew point in plain language: the temperature where air can't hold its water anymore and it condenses. That single idea explains the beads on a cold soda can, the musty smell in a basement, and the reason roof sheathing can frost over on the coldest nights. Along the way, we talk through ideal indoor humidity targets (40–50%), why anything at or above 60% invites mold growth, and how device settings can work against you.You'll hear our take on common mistakes like running a whole-house humidifier at 55% while a basement dehumidifier fights to hold 45%. We dig into regional realities, why basements and crawl spaces often need dedicated dehumidifiers, and how small leaks in furnace-mounted humidifiers can quietly corrode ductwork. We also map out practical fixes: seal ceiling penetrations, ensure clear soffit paths, add baffles, balance ridge ventilation, and insulate cold spots such as rim joists. The goal is simple—align temperature, moisture, and airflow so dew point happens outside, not on your framing.If you want a home that feels comfortable, smells clean, and resists mold, this is your roadmap. Tune in for clear guidance, actionable settings, and the inspector insights we rely on during real home visits.

Is online continuing education enough to elevate your dentistry? With unlimited access to webinars, social media cases, and on-demand videos, it's easy to believe you can master complex procedures from a screen. But is that really how clinical excellence is built? In this episode, Kirk Behrendt interviews Dr. Adamo Notarantonio, educator, clinician, and faculty member at the Kois Center, about the critical differences between online and in-person learning. They discuss why hands-on training, mentorship, and layered learning are essential for developing technical skill, clinical judgment, and the ability to think under pressure. You'll learn how to adopt CE with patience, how to avoid the social media comparison trap, and why real growth requires more than watching a video. If you want to elevate your thinking and your results, listen to Episode 1008 of The Best Practices Show!Main TakeawaysIn-person, hands-on education is essential for mastering clinical techniques that cannot be fully learned through online videos.True clinical growth requires repetition, deliberate practice, and mentorship over time.Social media often presents highlight reels that do not reflect the full clinical reality behind cases.The ability to think outside the box during unexpected clinical situations separates good clinicians from great clinicians.Layered learning—lecture, hands-on application, mentorship, and case review—deepens understanding and improves implementation.Dentists should focus on competing with themselves rather than comparing their work to others.Adopting CE effectively requires patience and a long-term mindset rather than seeking rapid results.Snippets00:00 Introduction and Welcome00:18 Meet Adamo: A Special Guest01:20 The Importance of Continuing Education02:48 Adamo's Journey and Career Changes04:15 Hands-On Learning vs. Online Education07:43 The Value of In-Person Training09:48 Thinking Outside the Box in Dentistry12:22 Mindset and Continuous Learning14:47 The Reality of Social Media in Dentistry16:29 The Reality of Before and After16:41 The Trust Factor with Instagram16:58 AI in Dentistry Presentations17:29 The Importance of Clinical Tips18:20 The Role of Educators in Dentistry
“I do not believe we should be testing to test. We have to know, is this test going to change management and is it going to make a difference,” says pediatric allergist-immunologist Dr. Zachary Rubin. His knack for providing that sort of straightforward guidance explains why Dr. Rubin has become a trusted voice on allergies, asthma, and vaccines for his millions of followers on social media platforms. It's also why we couldn't ask for a better guide for our discussion on the rise in allergies, asthma, and immune-related conditions in children, and how families can navigate the quickly evolving science and rampant misinformation in the space. On this episode of Raise the Line, we also preview Dr. Rubin's new book, All About Allergies, in which he breaks down dozens of conditions and diseases, offering clear explanations and practical treatment options for families. Join host Lindsey Smith for this super informative conversation in which Dr. Rubin shares his thoughts on a wide range of topics including: What's behind the rise in allergic and immune-related conditions.Tips for managing misinformation, myths and misunderstandings.

Send a textResolutions fade fast when they aren't backed by steady habits, so we're putting structure first: the simple difference between lead and lag indicators, and how that mindset keeps both your business and your house out of trouble. We walk through the weekly inputs that actually move the needle, from outreach and education to checklists that turn big goals into bite-size tasks you can repeat without thinking.Then we take that same lens to home ownership. Houses don't have warning lights, and thaw season can be brutal: one warm day after a deep freeze and suddenly sump pumps fail, downspouts disconnect, and gutters overflow right into the foundation. We break down the small, preventive moves that stop big messes: test the pump with a bucket, reconnect and extend downspouts, clean gutters, and make sure grading sends water away from the walls. None of it is expensive, but skipping it can flood a basement, short out equipment, and drain your budget.We also explain why a periodic maintenance inspection is worth its weight in peace of mind. Pros bring moisture meters, thermal imaging, and the experience to spot slow leaks in attics and crawl spaces before they become disasters. The findings become a practical honey-do list: prioritize essentials, schedule the rest, and build a two-year rhythm that includes radon testing whether or not you have a system. Along the way, we share why septic systems need predictable pumping, how to avoid wrecking a leach field, and how simple skills like caulking and patching get better with practice and save money for years.Ready to trade emergencies for a calm, low-drama home?

If you listened to my last episode about creating income by teaching without becoming an influencer and thought, "That sounds great… but when would I actually find the time?",this episode is for you. In this conversation, I talk honestly about time management for therapists who want to create continuing education, without hustle culture, productivity pressure, or burnout. I break down why "I don't have time" makes complete sense for clinicians, and why the real issue usually isn't time at all, it's structure, energy, and permission. I explore the difference between clinical energy and creative energy, why waiting for long blocks of free time keeps therapists stuck, and how continuing education can be built in small, realistic containers that actually fit therapist life. I also share why most therapists already have far more teachable material than they realize and why starting smaller than you think is often the key to getting unstuck. This episode is especially for therapists who feel curious about teaching or creating CE, but overwhelmed by where it would fit, or whether they're "ready" to begin.

Many therapists feel a pull to create income outside of the one-to-one therapy model, but feel conflicted about influencer culture, constant posting, or anything that feels misaligned with their professional values. In this episode, I explore how therapists can diversify their income by teaching, without becoming influencers or leaving the field. I break down why teaching is a natural extension of clinical work, how continuing education fits ethically within scope, and why so many therapists already have teachable expertise without realizing it. I discuss practical, realistic options for therapists, including continuing education, consultation, digital educational products, and podcast-based learning, and reframe income diversification as an issue of sustainability, not commitment. This episode is especially relevant for seasoned clinicians who want longevity in the profession without hype or hustle culture.

What began as a job delivering cases quickly turned into a full-blown passion once she stepped inside the lab and saw what technicians were creating. From trimming dies and waxing copings to managing labs, supporting implant surgeries, teaching doctors chairside, and leading removable and implant teams, Helen shares a journey built on curiosity, persistence, and a deep drive to understand the why behind everything in dental technology. Helen talks about working her way through crown and bridge fundamentals before discovering her true passion in removables, dentures, implants, and occlusion. After getting real-world lab experience, she attended dental technology school, studied all six specialties, and continued expanding her knowledge through advanced occlusion training and continuing education. She explains why understanding morphology, materials, and occlusal principles is critical — especially today — and why technicians must know more than just the steps of fabrication. For Helen, dentures and implant prosthetics offer the ultimate puzzle, combining anatomy, function, and problem-solving in ways that keep her constantly engaged. The conversation dives deep into digital dentistry, guided surgery, and removable workflows, with Helen sharing her early experiences launching digital denture and sleep appliance programs long before the workflows were polished. She discusses digital record capture, stackable surgical guides, implant planning, photogrammetry, and where digital still needs improvement — especially for removable prosthetics. While she embraces technology, she stresses that software is only as good as the technician behind it, and that skipping fundamentals creates bigger problems later. Digital is powerful, but it doesn't replace understanding. Education is a major theme throughout the episode. Helen regularly teaches doctors and technicians, speaks at courses, supports live implant conversions, and works with dental students. She emphasizes that many clinicians today lack confidence in dentures and removable workflows, often because fundamentals are under-taught, and she sees technicians as essential partners in closing that gap. She and the hosts discuss how removable cases are frequently rushed, underpaid, and misunderstood — even though they replace a critical body function — and why slowing down, capturing correct records, and returning to basics solves many of the “mystery” failures labs see every day. Helen also shares stories from her time with large organizations and clinical teams, including MicroDental, ClearChoice, Arklign, and implant education centers, where she has worked in technical service, management, training, and quality oversight roles. She talks about networking, mentoring, never burning bridges, and investing in people coming up in the industry. Her approach to both dentistry and life centers around curiosity and accountability — always asking why, always backing decisions with data, and always trying to do the right thing even when no one is looking. Throughout the episode, the energy stays fun and honest, with stories about speeding delivery runs, early digital growing pains, chairside save-the-case moments, and the reality of fixing cases that skipped key steps. Helen brings passion, technical depth, and a strong belief that knowledge should be shared, not guarded. It's a conversation about growth, fundamentals, digital evolution, and why great technicians still matter more than ever.
