UK Dentists: Collect your verifiable CPD for this episode here >>> https://courses.dentistswhoinvest.com/smart-money-members-club———————————————————————Ever feel like you're sprinting from exam to exam with blinkers on, hoping it all “works out” once you qualify? We open that lens wide, exploring how dentists can earn well, earn right, and build real freedom without sacrificing ethics or joy. The heart of the conversation is practical: what actually creates cash flow, how to avoid looking rich while staying broke, and how to turn your clinical skill into long-term choices.We start with mindset—why short-term student thinking leaves money and experience on the table—and move into the real trade-offs of early success. Quick wins without grounding often inflate ego and spending. We share candid stories about lavish mistakes, the danger of lifestyle creep, and why humility, mentors, and honest peers accelerate maturity. From there, we dig into the finance that matters: assets that pay you (well-run practices, property with sober maths, and diversified global equities), the importance of compounding, and a clear explanation of ACC vs INC funds so dividends don't die as cash in your account.Policy risk gets a bright light: shifting pension rules, the return risk of lifetime allowances, NHS schemes versus SIPs, and why ISAs remain criminally underused despite their tax advantages. Rather than preach one path, we pair wrappers with goals and timelines, keeping flexibility front and centre. Then we lay out a roadmap many clinicians can execute. First, become a high-grossing associate by mastering clinical skill and communication. With stronger cash flow, you can compound into ISAs and pensions or move toward ownership. If ownership fits your temperament, we talk hiring, culture, numbers, and modern patient acquisition through Meta ads and search—all aligned with ethical, high-quality care.The best shift might be the simplest: stop slicing a fixed pie and focus on making the pie bigger. When income grows through skill and assets, you can enjoy life today and still invest for tomorrow. No silver bullets, no hype—just a realistic playbook tested by clinicians who've walked it. If this resonates, follow the show, share it with a colleague who needs a nudge, and leave a quick review so more dentists can find practical guidance and build freedom on their terms..———————————————————————Disclaimer: All content on this channel is for education purposes only and does not constitute an investment recommendation or individual financial advice.

Attachment: What Counsellors Need to Know – Why Check-Ins and Check-Outs Matter In Episode 368 of the Counselling Tutor Podcast, your hosts Rory Lees-Oakes and Ken Kelly guide you through three key areas of counselling practice, learning, and development. In Ethical, Sustainable Practice, Rory and Ken explore when media coverage enters the counselling room, examining how major reporting on trauma and abuse can increase client contact and shape presentations. In Practice Matters, Rory is interviewed by Sarah Henry about his latest CPD lecture on attachment, exploring why attachment theory is central to therapeutic work. And in Student Services, Rory and Ken discuss the role of check-ins and check-outs in counselling training, and why these processes matter far beyond the classroom. When Media Coverage Enters the Counselling Room [starts at 03:18 mins] In this section, Rory and Ken explore when media coverage enters the counselling room, examining how high-profile reporting of abuse and trauma can trigger an increase in client enquiries and influence therapeutic presentations. Key points discussed include: Major news stories can act as a trigger, prompting clients to seek therapy for historic trauma. The “Savile Effect” explains why disclosures often surge following widespread media attention. Therapists may notice increases in presentations such as flashbacks, shame, hyperarousal, and crisis responses. Working in a trauma-informed way prioritises safety, pacing, choice, and avoiding re-traumatisation. Having a surge plan in place helps therapists manage capacity, referrals, and ethical boundaries. Supervision is essential for managing risk, vicarious trauma, and professional decision-making during these periods. Attachment: What Counsellors Need to Know [starts at 26:54 mins] In this week's Practice Matters, Sarah Henry interviews Rory Lees-Oakes about his recent lecture on attachment theory and its relevance to counselling practice. Key points from this discussion include: Therapy itself is an attachment process, with the therapist offering stability, presence, and emotional availability. Attachment styles are patterns, not pathology, and shape how clients relate to themselves and others. The therapist can become a secure base, supporting repair and earned security within the therapeutic relationship. Boundaries, consistency, and predictability are central to creating safety in attachment work. Ruptures and repairs are inevitable and can become powerful corrective relational experiences. Attachment dynamics show up in first contact, transference, countertransference, and endings in therapy. Why Check-Ins and Check-Outs Matter [starts at 51:42 mins] In this section, Rory and Ken explore the purpose of check-ins and check-outs in counselling training and how these practices translate into professional work. Key points include: Check-ins help students transition from the outside world into a reflective learning space. They allow tutors to assess group safety, emotional readiness, and potential risk. Sharing emotional states builds empathy, cohesion, and self-awareness within the group. Check-outs support reflection, integration of learning, and emotional containment at the end of sessions. These processes mirror therapeutic practice, modelling how sessions begin and end with clients. Developing this discipline in training supports ethical, present, and grounded practice post-qualification.

How can AI Copywriting help Martin Booth, who has worked as a journalist and copywriter, but traditional clients are turning to large language models to draft their copy nowadays? An answer emerges during the conversation.Summary of PodcastThe rise of AI copywritingMartin shares his perspective on the growing impact of AI tools like ChatGPT on the copywriting industry. He explains how clients are increasingly turning to AI-generated content, which has reduced the demand for his services. The group discusses strategies for copywriters to adapt and remain relevant in this changing landscape.Opportunity in Answer Engine Optimisation (AEO)Graham introduces the concept of Answer Engine Optimisation (AEO) as a potential solution for copywriters to differentiate themselves. He explains AI copywriting is how AEO focuses on crafting content that is optimised for how AI language models like ChatGPT search and surface information, rather than traditional search engine optimisation (SEO) tactics. The group explores the technical and creative aspects of AEO, and the potential for Martin to position himself as an expert in this emerging field.Recap and next stepsKevin and Graham summarise the key insights from the discussion, emphasising the need for copywriters to adapt to the changing landscape and leverage AI tools in strategic ways. They express optimism about Martin's ability to capitalise on the AEO opportunity and become a thought leader in this space.The Next 100 Days Podcast Co-HostsGraham ArrowsmithGraham founded Finely Fettled eleven years ago to help businesses market to affluent and high-net-worth customers. He's the founder of MicroYES, a Partner of MeclabsAI, providing AI Agents, Workflows and Phone to Agent delivery systems. Now, Graham offers Answer Engine Optimisation so you get found by LLM search and Enterprise-level AI Solutions.Kevin ApplebyKevin specialises in finance transformation and implementing business change. He's the COO of GrowCFO, which provides both community and CPD-accredited training designed to grow the next generation of finance leaders. You can find Kevin on LinkedIn and at kevinappleby.comNOTE: Here's What Claude ThinksWhy copywriters are well-positioned:LLMs don't just scrape keywords; they evaluate coherence, clarity, and authoritative structureAnswer engines prioritise content that demonstrates expertise through well-reasoned arguments, not just SEO tricksCopywriters understand persuasion architecture - how to build credible cases that convince readers (and now, AI systems evaluating on behalf of readers)Direct response copywriters especially understand question-answer flow and anticipating objections - precisely what LLMs look for when synthesising answersThe critical shift required:Traditional copywriting optimises for human conversionAEO copywriting must optimise for AI comprehension then human conversionThis means explicit structure: clear topic sentences, logical progression, supporting evidence, contextual markersLess "clever" wordplay, more semantic clarity and entity relationshipsWhere copywriters have genuine advantage over AI-generated content:Domain expertise translation - taking complex client knowledge and structuring it authoritativelyEvidence marshaling - knowing which proofs, testimonials, data points establish credibilityQuestion anticipation - your direct response background means you already think in terms of buyer journey questionsUnderstanding what makes content citable and quotable by LLMsThe reality check: Those copywriters who were primarily executing formulaic landing pages or generic blog content were always vulnerable to AI displacement. But copywriters who can architect information authority - structuring expertise so AI engines recognise and cite it - that's a defensible, valuable skill.You're essentially asking: "Can craftspeople who've been building for human readers pivot to building for AI intermediaries who serve human readers?" The answer is yes, because the fundamental skill - persuasive information architecture - transfers directly.

UK Dentists: Collect your verifiable CPD for this episode here >>> https://courses.dentistswhoinvest.com/smart-money-members-club———————————————————————The clock is ticking on Making Tax Digital, and we're cutting through the noise with a straight-talking guide tailored for UK dentists. If you earn self-employment income as an associate or rental income from buy‑to‑lets, this is the moment to get clear on thresholds, timelines, and the smartest way to stay compliant without drowning in admin.We unpack the real meaning of “relevant income” and why HMRC looks at gross receipts, not profits, when deciding who must file quarterly. You'll learn exactly who is in scope right now at £50,000, why PAYE and dividends don't count for MTD for income tax, and how planned drops to £30,000 and £20,000 will bring many more clinicians into the regime. We also cover the penalty system you need to avoid: an initial grace year for late submissions, points that stack to a £200 fine, and a 24‑month compliance runway to reset. Most crucially, we explain the three‑year lock-in once you're on the system and how that affects timing if you're considering incorporation.From there, we move to tools and tactics. Prefer minimal effort? Ask your accountant about bridging software so you can send simple spreadsheets or bank statements each quarter and let them handle the submission. Want more control and real-time insight? We compare software options like FreeAgent, Sage, Xero and QuickBooks, highlighting free tiers, bank feeds, common setup pitfalls, and how live data can help you steer clear of the 60 percent effective rate band with timely pension and expense planning. We set out the dates that matter: Q1 runs 6 April to 5 July, with the first update due 7 August, and why registering before 5 April buys breathing space and avoids easy points.We finish with a practical checklist you can act on today: register for MTD or ask your accountant to do it, choose between full bookkeeping or a bridging route, and schedule your July data handover so the first submission lands on time. It's a clear, calm path through a complex change, built for busy clinicians who value certainty and time.———————————————————————Disclaimer: All content on this channel is for education purposes only and does not constitute an investment recommendation or individual financial advice.

In this episode of the IFIW Australia mini-series, James Mendoza, Captain and Training Officer with the San Jose Fire Department, takes us inside a major large volume fire at a Home Depot in 2022. With a background in education and microbiology, and experience contributing to UL's Coordinated Fire Attack study, James blends science and street-level decision making as he unpacks the realities of operating inside a thirty foot high warehouse filled with high rack storage, compressed gas cylinders and lithium ion batteries. This is a raw debrief of what it actually looked like when the smoke layer dropped to the floor and traditional straight stream techniques began to show their limitations.We explore gas cooling in a large compartment, the cognitive load on company officers, the tension between defensive indicators and life risk, and the uncomfortable gaps in training when firefighters are highly competent in residential fires but underprepared for mega structures. The series is supported by Enduro Protect and De-Wipe, organisations committed to protecting firefighters from long term exposure risks while continuing to develop operational competence.

In this episode, I'm speaking to Costas Constantinou. Costas is the co-founder and Director of Education at Veema Education, an organisation that provides professional development and school improvement programs internationally. A former London-based school leader, he specialises in training, coaching, and supporting educators globally. He is also the author of "A School Leader's Guide to Leading Professional Development".Professional development is a fascinating phenomenon, given those in charge are tasked with building a shared language of excellence for staff, who might have ten different definitions of what a "good lesson" even looks like. On top of this, it's culturally and contextually complex, and is arguably one of the most interesting design challenges in education right now. So, getting Costas into discuss best practice was a real privilege.We discuss:How and why schools should move from one-off events to multi-year CPD that establishes whole-school priorities while still being relevant at the department levelHow can leaders can make CPD meaningful for both early career teachers and experienced subject specialistsHow we foster 'disciplined inquiry,' where teachers identify their own professional needsMoving from measuring teacher satisfaction to measuring its actual impact on student learningAnd finally, how to simplify engagement with evidence so it feels practical rather than a choreThanks again to Costas, someone who's spent years truly deconstructing the ‘how' and ‘why' of school improvement, for his insights into the rigorous, evidence-backed architecture PD can offer.If you'd like to be kept up to date on when chat like this happens, feel free to subscribe to the podcast and follow me on LinkedIn @chrisjordanhk or X @chrisjordanhkAdditionally, if you would like a head start on learning how to prioritise your middle years English curriculum, head to the bottom of this podcast's show notes or top of my stream on X to find a beta copy of my forthcoming book: Make Middle Years English Matter.

In this episode, Dr Roger Henderson looks at acute laryngitis, a condition that is both common and deceptively complex. Often dismissed as a simple cold-related voice change, acute laryngitis actually offers GPs insights into airway physiology, vocal mechanics and clinical reasoning. Understanding the nuances of this condition is essential. We look at its typical presentation, from sudden hoarseness and vocal fatigue to dry cough, and discuss red flags that signal more serious pathology. We also consider infectious and non-infectious causes, management strategies and the subtle ways patient behaviour and environment can influence recovery.Access episode show notes containing key references and take-home points at:https://gpnotebook.com/en-GB/podcasts/ear-nose-and-throat/ep-196-acute-laryngitis.Did you know?

Atrial fibrillation (AF) can be asymptomatic and, sometimes, the condition is only identified when a person has had an AF-related stroke. For this reason, according to GP Dr Chris Arden, ‘we need to be far more proactive and more opportunistic' about identifying AF in primary care. This could involve performing pulse checks at flu clinics or chronic disease clinics, focusing on elderly patients given they are most at risk of developing AF.Dr Chris Arden talks to Dawn Liz Powell, in this Clinical Update podcast episode, about the diagnosis and management of AF in primary care. He discusses the pros and cons of single-lead ECGs, how to mitigate the risk of bleeding in people on direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs), and when to refer.Educational objectivesAfter listening to this podcast, healthcare professionals should be better able to:Review the opportunities for AF case findingReflect on the role of lifestyle factors including alcohol consumption in triggering AF in susceptible individualsDiscuss the emerging role of single-lead ECG technologies identifying AFHow to mitigate the risk of bleeding in people on DOACsRecognise the importance of continuing anticoagulation in frail, older peopleYou can access the website version of this podcast, along with a list of key learning points, on MIMS Learning - and make notes for your appraisal.

Anxiety can often be difficult to recognise during the perinatal period, with many people hesitating to seek support. Robyn Stanislavski and Katie Rogerson from PANDA (Perinatal Anxiety and Depression Australia) discuss their roles as peer worker and clinical practitioner, and how the intentional and safe sharing of lived experience can reduce shame and complement clinical care during this stage of life. Drawing on both lived experience and professional practice, Robyn and Katie discuss the value of peer support for people experiencing anxiety in the perinatal period. As part of the conversation, they also clarify what peer workers do in real practice settings and how collaboration between peer and clinical roles can strengthen support for parents.Listen to gain a deeper understanding of how peer support works in practice and the positive difference it can make in perinatal mental health.Robyn Stanislavski recently shared her expertise at an MHPN webinar, Supporting Perinatal Mental Health After Loss or a History of Eating Disorders.

Vallour provides outsourced document processing, prescription and medicines management, pharmacy-led chronic disease work, and pathology management, aiming to avoid work “boomeranging” back to practices by using on-call leads and autonomous clinicians who can take responsibility and prescribe. Valeed explains their pathology service focuses on abnormal as well as normal results via a calibration step with each practice to set thresholds, guidance choices, messaging, and risk appetite, creating bespoke statements of work. They discuss optimizing skill mix, reducing unnecessary routine work, and using existing tech better, with interoperability as a key barrier. Valeed also describes Vallour's work in CPD education, helping practices become research-ready for NIHR and commercial trials (including patient recruitment for underrepresented groups), and developing clinical decision-support software.  Want the latest financial tips for doctors and exclusive invites?

What becomes possible in your coaching when you are no longer afraid of emotions, but fully equipped to work with them? In this episode, we open the door to a programme that so many coaches feel drawn to, yet often hesitate to step into. We wanted to explore not only what the Emotions Coaching Practitioner training is, but why it has such a profound impact on the way we coach, the way we experience our work and the way our clients transform. The most powerful coaching conversations have always been the ones where emotions are present. They are the moments where change happens in real time. There is no long list of actions to take away and force into an already busy life. Instead, the shift happens in the session. Clients see themselves differently. They experience their challenges differently. Something that once felt fixed dissolves because it has finally been seen and understood. We talk about how this depth of work amplifies every part of your coaching practice. Your confidence grows because you know how to hold the space when life happens for your clients. Senior leaders navigating grief, diagnosis, burnout, fertility struggles or overwhelming pressure do not need to be turned away or redirected. They need a coach who can stay present, ethical and grounded while still working towards their goals. That is the mastery this training develops. There is also a personal dimension that cannot be separated from the professional. As you expand your own emotional capacity, your ability to co regulate, remain present and work within the coaching competencies becomes stronger. You are no longer second guessing whether something is too much. You are equipped, supported and deeply resourced. We share how this training gives coaches the courage to finally step into the niche they feel called towards. So many people carry lived experience of menopause, neurodivergence, burnout, divorce, grief or major life transitions and feel a strong pull to support others in those spaces. Yet they dilute their message because they are unsure how to hold the emotional depth. This programme removes that barrier. It gives you the tools, the ethical framework and the community to go all in on the work that matters most to you. What continues to move us is the feedback from our alumni. They describe the programme as life changing, as the missing piece of coaching, as a direct route to deeper client transformation. They talk about the immediate difference in their sessions, the new services they create, the group programmes they design and the impact they bring into organisations through workshops and wellbeing initiatives. We also reflect on the future of the coaching profession. In a world where AI can replicate structured coaching models, what will always remain uniquely human is presence, emotional depth and the ability to sit with another person in their most real moments. This is mastery level coaching. It is how you future proof your practice and raise the standard of the industry. At its heart, this programme is about belonging to something bigger. It is about being part of a movement that brings emotional work into coaching in a way that is ethical, rigorous, practical and deeply human. And it is about creating a space for yourself as a coach where your own growth, resilience and authenticity are continually supported.   Timestamps: 00:00 Introduction to the Emotions Coaching Practitioner 00:31 Why coaches feel called to this training 01:00 The power of emotional work in client transformation 02:36 Greater enjoyment and depth in your coaching practice 03:06 Real client impact at senior leadership level 03:33 Alumni experiences and life changing outcomes 04:26 Programme structure and learning experience 05:21 Coaches with lived experience and the call to niche 06:21 Working in emotive fields with confidence and ethics 07:18 Holding space for complex client realities 08:17 Creating psychological safety for your clients 10:10 Coaching versus therapy and staying within contract 11:08 Co regulation and coach resilience 13:28 The missing piece in many coaching approaches 14:27 From natural supporter to skilled practitioner 15:26 New services, group programmes and organisational delivery 16:24 A mastery level CPD experience 17:21 Future proofing coaching in an AI world 18:19 Sustaining yourself emotionally as a coach 19:17 The intimacy and community of the programme 20:33 Depth, authenticity and transformative learning 22:20 A full spectrum understanding of emotions 22:58 How to find out more and enrol   Key Lessons Learned: Emotional work creates immediate and lasting transformation for clients. Mastery in coaching comes from the ability to hold presence in complex human experiences. Expanding your own emotional capacity strengthens your professional confidence and resilience. This training enables coaches to step fully into meaningful niches. Deep emotional competence is a way to future proof your coaching in an AI influenced world. The programme supports personal growth, commercial expansion and ethical practice.

In part 4 of this mini-series, David Charlton explores a challenging but common sport dynamic: the high achievement-oriented athlete working with a low achievement-oriented coach. The athlete is organised, early, diligent, and constantly looking for ways to improvetechnical work, gym work, extras, metrics, and a "leave no stone unturned" mindset.  But the coach may appear distracted, rushed, inconsistent, late, or disorganised and may find structured goal-setting and CPD stressful. When those worlds don't align, athletes can feel unsupported, unwanted, and even inadequate, despite doing "everything right". They may also become vulnerable to overworking, anxiety, and neglecting recovery especially if they're known as the "postman" who always delivers! Drawing on Sophia Jowett's coach–athlete relationship framework (closeness, commitment, complementarity and co-orientation), David explains how misalignment often comes down to unclear expectations and poor communication not a lack of care. The episode finishes by linking the dynamic to Peter Clough's 4Cs: confidence, control, challenge and commitment and offers practical ways both coach and athlete can meet halfway through recognition, structure, boundaries, and honest conversations. >> Key Takeaways ·         Misalignment is the issue: clarity and communication are more effective than blame ·         High-achieving athletes need boundaries recovery and priorities protect long-term performance ·         Small structure matters: simple session aims, feedback and recognition build confidence If you enjoyed this episode, check out the other parts of this mini-series and our previous podcasts on the coach–athlete relationship: Ep306 - Goal Orientation: When Coaches and Athletes Think Differently Ep305 – Emotional Control: When Coaches and Athletes Think Differently Ep304 – David Charlton - Life Control: When Coaches and Athletes Think Differently Ep303: Doug Strycharczyk - Why You Think the Way You Do Under Pressure Ep293: Stuart Barnes - High Challenge, High Support: Mental Toughness in Cricket Connect with David Charlton ·         Sign Up To The Mental Edge ·         Join David @ The Sports Psychology Hub ·         LinkedIn

We sit down with specialist broker Sarah Gris to unpack how dentists can borrow more at better rates by aligning income evidence, deposits, and monthly commitments with what lenders actually reward.We start with the real levers behind the famous “multiplier.” Five times income is common, six times is realistic with the right profile, and seven times appears in niche cases at a price. Sarah explains how associates and principals should present figures: salary plus dividends or profit after corporation tax for limited companies, and net profit for sole traders. We dig into why lenders often average two years, how to time applications to showcase a strong latest year, and when projection-based pay schedules can help growing clinicians.Then we get tactical about affordability killers. A 0 percent credit card still counts, with lenders modelling around three percent of the balance as a monthly outgoing. That £10,000 you plan to clear “later” can shave roughly £80,000 off potential borrowing today. We highlight the heavy hitters—car finance, school fees, nursery costs—and translate them into mortgage impact, including how a £2,200 car payment can crowd out around a £400,000 mortgage. The message is simple: lenders view you like a business, so strip out avoidable commitments before you apply.You'll also learn how banks estimate day-to-day spend using ONS benchmarks, why flats bring service charges and ground rent into the equation, and which bank statement entries trigger underwriter questions. Sarah shares pragmatic fixes: clear or restructure revolving debt, build a stronger deposit for better rates, tidy statement references, and coordinate application timing with your best filed accounts. For dentists who like to stretch, this is the map for stretching smart.———————————————————————Disclaimer: All content on this channel is for education purposes only and does not constitute an investment recommendation or individual financial advice.

Send a textEducators across grade levels are observing a consistent pattern: students are increasingly distracted, mentally fatigued, and less able to sustain focus during academic tasks. These challenges affect reading comprehension, problem-solving, written expression, and overall learning stamina. This episode examines the cognitive and neurological foundations behind these trends and explores how neuroscience-informed innovation may support learning readiness.Drawing on research in neuroplasticity and cognitive development, the discussion highlights how core brain systems—including attention regulation, working memory, processing speed, response inhibition, and visual control—play a critical role in students' ability to engage in sustained learning. The episode explores how stress, digital overstimulation, anxiety, and sleep disruption can place strain on these systems, reducing cognitive efficiency in classroom settings.Guest Dominick Fedele, CEO and founder of Mastermind Cognitive Training, shares insights into the development of targeted cognitive training exercises designed to strengthen foundational brain skills through structured, repeated practice. The conversation examines how short, gamified training sessions aim to leverage neuroplasticity to enhance focus, learning stamina, and academic readiness. Assessment models used to measure cognitive growth are also discussed, along with early feedback from educators and families.This episode provides educators with a research-informed perspective on cognitive readiness and offers insight into how structured brain-based practice may complement classroom instruction. It invites reflection on how strengthening underlying cognitive systems may help students engage more effectively in learning while supporting teachers in managing diverse attention needs.Great News!

In this episode recorded live at the International Fire Instructors Workshop 2026 in Australia, you'll hear from Edward Hartin as he explores fireground sensemaking and decision making for the station officer. Drawing on more than fifty years in the fire service and decades at chief officer level, Ed takes us inside the cognitive process that underpins command. How initial cues shape your frame of reference before you even arrive. Why experience alone is not expertise. And how deliberate practice through Tactical Decision Games builds the pattern recognition, risk assessment and coordination skills that actually show up when conditions deteriorate.This episode forms part of the IFIW Australia mini-series and was recorded in a live working environment, so what you hear is raw and authentic.

Are you a high-earning dentist… living paycheck to paycheck? Do you ever feel financially stretched – despite earning well? Are you trapped in dentistry's “golden handcuffs”? And what would your life look like if you worked because you wanted to… not because you had to? In this rare solo episode, Jaz steps away from occlusion and restorative dentistry to talk about something just as important: personal finances and career security for dentists. After going deep down the money rabbit hole — reading books like Rich Dad Poor Dad, The Simple Path to Wealth, and I Will Teach You To Be Rich — Jaz shares how his upbringing, early career decisions, and financial education shaped his beliefs about wealth, freedom, and dentistry. This isn't financial advice.It's a mindset shift. And for many dentists, it might be the most important episode you hear this year. https://youtu.be/4OXruGIdb_g Watch IC068 on YouTube Your day list reflects your earning power. The work you do each day quietly sets the limits of what you can earn. Exams and single-surface composites create one kind of ceiling; comprehensive cases, ortho, rehab, sedation, and complex restorative work create another. Upskilling changes that ceiling and gives you far more control over your financial future. Want more mindset shifts like this?AskJaz — your on-demand dental brain — is built into the Protrusive App. Key Takeaways High income does not guarantee financial security. Dentistry can become “golden handcuffs” without asset building. Invest in yourself early — skill drives earning power. Lifestyle creep quietly erodes freedom. Financial independence means practicing because you want to. Define your rich life and align spending accordingly.

You're about to hear a conversation about doing less. But it isn't really about doing less. It's about time. Recorded at Trauma 2030 at the Royal College of Surgeons, this episode explores a shift in mindset in pre-hospital trauma care — away from maximal intervention on scene and towards rapid recognition of the patient who cannot be fixed pre-hospital. I'm joined by Harriet Tucker — consultant at London's Air Ambulance, HEMS Governance Lead at Air Ambulance Kent Surrey Sussex, and Trauma Team Leader at St George's Major Trauma Centre — to talk about damage control pre-hospital care. We discuss: Using time as a treatment Recognising non-compressible haemorrhage Why one line may be enough Moving interventions into the ambulance Changing the pre-alert The “pit stop” resus Taking patients straight to theatre Cultural resistance to doing less Governance, debrief, and looking after teams This approach focuses on a small but critically unwell group of patients — often penetrating trauma with rapidly exsanguinating haemorrhage — where the only definitive treatment is surgical control of bleeding. The key intervention is speed. Harriet also discusses the governance work behind this change, the importance of reviewing every case, and how to bring ambulance services and in-hospital teams along with the shift in thinking. This episode is part of a series recorded at Trauma 2030. More conversations from the meeting will follow in upcoming episodes.  Upcoming events Harriet will be speaking at Tactical Trauma, 2–4 November, Sundsvall, Sweden.

We take a candid look at why dentists often feel underpaid, then map the path from noisy busyness to calm, predictable income. With Dr Barry Holton's growth lens and Shishir Kudka's financial x-ray, we blend practical production levers—pricing confidence, diary zoning, and strong case acceptance—with the cash flow literacy that keeps a practice breathing.We start by challenging the turnover myth. Higher gross without margin control is a hamster wheel, not a win. Barry shares how fear of rejection drives undercharging, why too many recalls clog chairs, and how a simple follow-up system can uncover a hidden fortune in proposed but uncompleted treatment. Expect real numbers: one two-surgery site sat on £2.4m of diagnosed care. We talk language, team roles, and the discipline of zoning to prioritise high-value care without adding hours.Then we flip the chart to the finance side. Shishir outlines a level-zero toolkit any owner can use today: track gross profit after direct costs, set a margin floor, and run a quick liquidity stress test. We go beyond the profit and loss to cash flow and the balance sheet—because you pay bills with cash, not paper profit. Learn a simple TIPs review for your bank movements—spot trends, irregularities, patterns, and spikes—and see how better receivables, lab negotiations, and expense controls lift margins fast. We also demystify tax timing so you can forecast payments, avoid over-parking cash, and fund growth without surprises.Data quality is the clincher. Generic AI dashboards can tidy messy ledgers into pretty lies. We talk about dental-specific tooling that validates entries, connects clinical and financial views, and delivers a true 360-degree diagnosis so you can reward the right behaviour and intervene early when conversion slips. The outcome is freedom: fewer, better appointments, fees that reflect value, and a practice you steer with confidence.———————————————————————Disclaimer: All content on this channel is for education purposes only and does not constitute an investment recommendation or individual financial advice.

On this episode of Mind the Gap, Tom Sherrington and Emma Turner are joined by Alex Fairlamb and Rachel Ball, co-authors of The Scaffolding Effect, to explore what scaffolding really is (and isn't) and why it has become such a pivotal idea in the move from “differentiation” to adaptive teaching. They discuss the research roots of the term, the practical reality of “knowing–doing,” and the central challenge that scaffolds must be temporary - designed to be removed through gradual release and guided by sharp checks for understanding. The conversation digs into common pitfalls (from “impermeable skins” of apparent progress to students becoming dependent on writing frames), debates the role of formulaic writing structures, and shows how scaffolding looks different across subjects and phases, including strategies involving reading, writing, retrieval practice, explanations, practical subjects, even homework. Packed with concrete examples and implementation-minded advice, this is a highly usable episode for teachers and leaders who want to support pupils towards real independence.Alex Fairlamb is a Trust T&L Network Lead and Senior Leader in charge of Teaching and Learning and CPD, based in the North East.

We explore how alphabet shares let dental founders keep a firm hand on strategy and clinical standards while still raising capital, rewarding key clinicians, and giving investors predictable returns. With corporate lawyer Ray Goodman, we translate complex UK company law into practical steps that fit the way dental groups actually grow.We start by demystifying A, B and C share classes and the rights that sit behind them: voting power, dividend priority, capital distribution on exit, and protections like drag-along and tag-along. From there, we show how the Companies Act 2006, model Articles of Association, and a clear shareholders' agreement work together. If you've wondered when to use enhanced-vote founder shares, when preference shares with a coupon make sense, or how growth shares align clinician performance with equity, this is your playbook.Real examples bring the structures to life. Founders retain control while external investors get fixed returns. Associates earn upside via conversion triggers tied to EBITDA or revenue. Passive backers hold non-voting preference shares that look and feel like stable income. We also cover essentials many owners miss: how to amend Articles, obtain class consents, set valuation rules that avoid minority discount fights, and meet Dentists Act requirements on dentally qualified directors. Plus, we flag common drafting pitfalls and why aligning Articles and the shareholders' agreement prevents nasty surprises at exit.———————————————————————Disclaimer: All content on this channel is for education purposes only and does not constitute an investment recommendation or individual financial advice.

This mini series opens a door into the International Fire Instructors Workshop 2026 in Australia, a gathering that for nearly two decades has been built on closed room conversations, honest challenge and the exchange of experience between some of the most respected fire instructors in the world. With the full support of the organisers and attendees, these recordings bring that environment into the open. The theme this year is Back to Basics, a deliberate return to the fundamentals that genuinely change outcomes on the fireground and in the training environment. What you are hearing is live and unfiltered, complete with the movement and background of a real working room, because that is exactly where the learning happens and why it is so valuable.Alongside the operational learning sits a clear commitment to longevity in the job and reducing the hidden risks that come with realistic fire behaviour training. The support from Enduro Protect and De Wipe reflects a practical approach to contamination control and long term health, based on repeated use in live burn environments and consistent performance over time. If we are serious about pushing our competence and exposing ourselves to high fidelity training, we have to be just as disciplined about protecting ourselves from the long term consequences of that exposure.This first episode features Karel Lambert, Division Chief at Brussels Fire Department, presenting on air consumption during tunnel firefighting. His session is a detailed and operationally grounded exploration of how air use is affected by workload, heat, movement, profile and decision making in one of the most demanding environments we face. For those undertaking professional development, CPD is available for listening to this episode through the Institute of Fire Engineers - email membership@ife.org.auYou can also download the full presentation using the link HERE to study the data, models and learning points in greater depth.Access all episodes, documents, GIVEAWAYS & debriefs HEREPodcast Apparel, Hoodies, Flags, Mugs HERE our partners supporting this episode.GORE-TEX Professional ClothingFIRST TACTICAL- tactical gear for elite operatorsMSA The Safety CompanyJAFCOIDEXFIRE & EVACUATION SERVICE LTD Send a textSupport the show***The views expressed in this episode are those of the individual speakers.

What if improving results across an entire school came down to a handful of simple learning habits, done well, every day? In this episode we sit down with two headteachers from top-performing UK schools – Andy Green (Copleston High School) and Peter Lee (Q3 Academy Langley) – to discover how the science of learning effectively has influenced their leadership, teaching approaches, and the learning experiences of their students when put into practice across an entire school community.We unpack how clear routines in the classroom, research-led CPD, well-communicated simple revision strategies, and a tight teaching playbook can improve engagement, consistency and exam results school-wide. This episode is slightly different to our normal fare, but it is packed with practical insights. Whether you're a teacher, school leader, parent or student, you'll come away with concrete ideas for building a culture of effective learning – in the classroom and at home.**Three invitations for (UK) educators:1.      Come and watch me teach (revision strategy workshop) Want to see what expert revision strategy training actually looks like in a real classroom?

Integrating Genograms and Social Graces - What Is Fitness to Practise? In Episode 366 of the Counselling Tutor Podcast, your hosts Rory Lees-Oakes and Ken Kelly take us through this week's three topics: Firstly, in ‘Ethical, Sustainable Practice', we examine the new police guidance on accessing counselling records – essential listening if you work with trauma or abuse. Then, in ‘Practice Matters', Rory speaks with Lisa Williams on integrating genograms and social graces to enhance self-awareness and deepen the therapeutic relationship. And finally, in ‘Student Services', Rory and Ken explore fitness to practise - what it means, how to get signed off, and what to do if you're struggling with that final hurdle. New Police Guidance on Accessing Counselling Records [starts at 03:19 mins] In this section, Rory and Ken discuss changes to police procedures on requesting client therapy notes, exploring new police guidance on accessing counselling records and what this means for practitioners working with victims of abuse or trauma. Key points discussed include: New guidelines in England and Wales mean police cannot routinely request counselling notes without meeting the criteria of necessity, proportionality, and relevance. Requests must now be authorised at the Chief Inspector level – no longer standard procedure in criminal investigations. The guidance stems from campaigns around violence against women and girls, and aims to encourage more victims to seek justice. Clients' therapeutic privacy is recognised as essential to healing; invasive requests may have deterred survivors in the past. While the guidelines currently apply only in England and Wales, they may impact online practitioners working cross-border. Integrating Genograms and Social Graces [starts at 24:51 mins] In this week's ‘Practice Matters', Rory speaks with Lisa Williams about using genograms and social graces as reflective tools to understand both client context and practitioner bias. Key points from this conversation include: Genograms map relational and social histories, helping to uncover patterns, influences, and intergenerational dynamics. Social graces or ‘Social GGRRAAACCEEESSS' (an acronym for aspects like gender, race, class, and age) deepen understanding of cultural positioning and identity. Integrating the two tools enables richer self-reflection and enhances work with clients from diverse backgrounds. These tools are valuable in supervision, personal therapy, case formulation, and even training workshops. Practitioners can use genograms to explore their own history and biases, bringing greater awareness to the therapeutic encounter. Lisa's CPD lecture offers practical examples and updated symbolic representations, including inclusive gender markers. What Is Fitness to Practise? [starts at 46:44 mins] In this section, Rory and Ken explore what ‘fitness to practise' means in counselling training and why it's a critical step before starting client work. Key points include: Fitness to practise is a tutor's professional judgement that a student is ready to work ethically and safely with clients. It's based on observed skills, theoretical understanding, and personal development – not just academic performance. The letter of fitness to practise is often required by placements and supervisors before a student begins seeing clients. Not passing the first time is not uncommon and does not mean failure – students are usually re-assessed after additional development. A refusal or delay may highlight areas needing growth, such as emotional readiness, ethical awareness, or communication skills. Receiving the letter often boosts student confidence and marks a rite of passage into the practitioner role.
