In 1900, German colonial officers executed 19 Tanzanian leaders, including Akida Kiwelu, and shipped their skulls to Berlin for scientific study. Thousands of such skulls and ancestral remains stolen from Germany's past colonies are still kept in Berlin museums to this day. In an administrative building in Berlin, Zablon Kiwelu encounters his grandfather's skull for the first time. DNA testing confirmed a genetic match to this skull, held in an anthropological colonial-era collection of thousands of skulls known as the S-Collection. But despite proof of his heritage, Zablon cannot bring his grandfather home for a proper burial.
Morgan Hamon, co-founder and president of EAG Dental Advisors, returns to the podcast to talk about dentistry financials. As a CPA, Morgan pulls from his experience to talk with Kiera about what it takes to be profitable (beyond revenue and expenses). Episode resources: Subscribe to The Dental A-Team podcast Schedule a Practice Assessment Leave us a review Transcript: Kiera Dent (00:01) Hello, Dental A Team listeners. This is Kiera. And today I am so jazzed. I have one of my absolute favorite guests back on the podcast, Morgan Hamon. He used to be with HDA. They have now upgraded their name to EAG Dental Advisors. Super excited. He's an incredible CPA, does all things dental, loves airplanes. He's been on the podcast so many times. We've had some good chats. Dear friend to me, Morgan, welcome back to the show. How are you? Morgan Hamon (00:20) Ha ha. Kiera, I'm doing good. It is so great to be with you and looking forward to our conversation today. Kiera Dent (00:31) to you and me both. So I have to know since you love airplanes and it's in your background, are you a fan or not a fan of Top Gun? I just need to know. Morgan Hamon (00:35) Mm-hmm. You know, I have a soft spot for that movie because when it came out in 1986, I was 15. And I, you know, I sort of set my sight. That definitely influenced me. said, that's what I want to do. So I went out and did it. And so. Kiera Dent (00:46) Mmm. So then how did you like Top Gun Maverick? was the second? Tell me, are you fan? Morgan Hamon (00:56) That one, the purpose of that movie was entertainment and it was entertaining, but it was a little, you gotta suspend disbelief a little bit. It was a little nostalgic because that was set in Naval Air Station, Lamar, which is where I was for eight years. So it was pretty cool seeing that and the flying scenes were real. And so they were all filmed out. It's called restricted area 2508, which is where we always used to fly. So it was pretty nostalgic seeing some of the flying scenes back where we used to go fly. Kiera Dent (01:17) Mm-hmm. Morgan Hamon (01:26) But technically, there's a little, like any movie, there's a little Hollywood going on there. But it was entertaining. Kiera Dent (01:26) No. can't How cool though that they like made a spot for Iceman with him having throat cancer. I thought that was incredible. Like way to go Tom Hanks. So I know you guys didn't come to the podcast to hear Morgan and I talk about top men, but we're going to segue now because Morgan does all things. We love to talk profit. We love to talk taxes. We love to talk all things nerding out on CPA land, which I have really truly fallen in love with like understanding my numbers. So this is a soft spot for me, but Morgan Hamon (01:39) Yes Yep. Hahaha Mm-hmm. Kiera Dent (02:01) Morgan said he won the topic today, which I think is a sexy topic and I cannot wait where he said leadership relates to profitability. And I said, Morgan, sign me up. Here we go. So Morgan, this is our time. This is our topic because I absolutely agree with you that leadership does relate to profitability, but take it away. And then we're to dig into tax savings. We're going to dig into all this stuff and who knows where else we're going to go, but ⁓ it'll be a great one. It always is. Morgan Hamon (02:16) Mm-hmm. Yes. Well, think this topic has evolved with me a little bit, because we've been doing this 15 years and going now. And so a lot of conversations over the years. And I've always thought about profitability, which let's face it, that's why we own businesses. We don't own businesses to pay tax. We own businesses to make a nice living and have some control over our lives. So you've to have profit, and it's hard owning a business. So if we don't have adequate profit, why bother? ⁓ Our mission has always been to really focus on profit, give our doctors feedback on what that profit is, and diagnose if things are, you know, if there's something that could put more money in their pocket. Now, with my CPA hat on, right, there's two parts of that profit equation. There's the expense side of the equation and the revenue side of the equation. And so for a lot of years, I mean, that's where our focus has been. But I've recently, last year or two, I've really come to the conclusion, look, there's a third component there, right? And it's not math, I can't point to the P &L. But where this comes from is I get asked all the time about, and it's from the clients either considering a startup or purchasing a practice, and they'll say, okay, Morgan, you got clients all 50 states, like where's the great area? Where should I go where folks are doing well? Kiera Dent (03:27) Ooh, I can't wait. Morgan Hamon (03:47) I that question. I get asked, hey, do you have a special report for pediatric dentists? Because I'm going to be pediatric, so I'm going to be making more money kind of thing. Or I'll hear a report. Or I'll get a question that, do you have a report just for your clients in California? Because it's like way different out here. And I say, look, the answer is no. We have one report. In geography and specialty, I think they may influence profitability, but that's not the deal breaker. We have plenty of clients who are specialists. The struggle, we have plenty of clients, like one of our longest term clients is in Nob Hill, San Francisco. She recently moved across the bay, but it's like the most expensive city on the planet. She killed a 55 % profit margin for like 10 years. So geography isn't, that's not how we connect the dots. I think we connect the dots with leadership. Kiera Dent (04:33) Yeah. Mm-hmm. Morgan Hamon (04:43) You know, we have a lot of clients I've known for a long time. I've been with them along with their journey as I've been on my journey, which has been very rewarding. And I've come to the opinion that if we quantify success for a doctor and let's, and we'll talk a little bit more about this when we get to tax, but you know, is it money? Is it time? Is it all the above? If we look at, who's crossed the finish line? Who has the full deal? ⁓ It's the doctor that runs a tight. Plain and simple. Like you can tell in me talking with them, I know them real well. You can tell by their numbers. Look, they're an amazing clinician, but they're also an amazing business leader. They know how to inspire their team. Their patients feel comfortable. They lead from the front. They just, they do it all. Those are the doctors that have the high profit margin and the high quality of life. It's not geography. It's not specialty, although that can have an influence. That's the full package. So it is, yes, revenue, expenses, and how well do you lead your practice, in my opinion. Kiera Dent (05:50) Morgan, I was so happy when I read that and when we were talking about what to bring on because I see it as well. I tell everybody, I can tell walking into a practice even before I walk into the practice, if I've met the leader of the practice, I usually can tell if this practice will be successful or not, truly based on the leader at the helm. And it's interesting because we did, I recently did this at our summit. So people were there, awesome. Morgan Hamon (05:52) you Kiera Dent (06:16) If they weren't, that's okay too. But we actually broke down and me and the consultants, we went through all of our clients. Like we looked at the clients, we looked at past clients, we looked at future clients, we looked at different pieces, what were our best clients, what were our worst clients. And I actually broke down, I'm trying to pull it up here, of like common themes of great practices and like great leadership and common themes of the not so good. And so some of the things I've seen in... Morgan, I'm super curious to hear like what you'd add to our list. Cause I, you see it from a different perspective than we see it. So on my not so good list, these are the ones that like really they always are floundering is they don't trust their office manager. They're sometimes poor clinicians. Like they need to hire somebody else or get some training for that. ⁓ Poor leaders, they have team turnover constantly. They don't implement strategies. They're highly driven by emotion. They don't look at their numbers or their results. Morgan Hamon (06:45) Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. you you Kiera Dent (07:11) They do a lot of CE, but they never like implement. They have lots of coaches, but they don't trust and execute. They're half in on everything. So they're not like solid on anything. They want to pay to fix the problem with no self-realization identification that maybe they are the issue. They have ego fear with no accountability. And there's a lot of blame. Like everybody else is the problem. Are some of the things that I've seen and I don't know, like I know I'm putting you on the spot. didn't, I have my nice list over here, but is there anything else you see of patterns? I'm, you and I can both like, Morgan Hamon (07:30) Mm-hmm. ⁓ Kiera Dent (07:41) in our Rolodex of humans we know are not so good leaders or the practices who aren't as profitable, are there any other things you've noticed in their leadership that maybe isn't as strong? Morgan Hamon (07:41) No. Right. Well, that was a very comprehensive list. Once we're done, I'm going to write all those down because I that's very good. If I were to summarize that, if we talk about leadership, it's really about ownership and engagement. You have to own it. Everything's your problem when you're the owner. There's another podcast I like. Kiera Dent (07:58) Yeah, of course. I'll happily share. I will happily share. And if you get anything else, share back our way too. Morgan Hamon (08:20) and it's nothing to do with dental, it's all about leadership. And there's a saying, and it's really stuck with me, and I swear I think about this every day, Kiera, when I think about my business and how do we keep doing a good job, is that if there's a problem in your organization, it's a leadership problem. You can trace it all the way back, go any direction you want, it's going to tie back to a leadership problem. So, if something is going sideways, it ultimately comes back to your leadership as a business owner. So, maybe the staff, maybe there was a bad patient experience, something went sideways with the patient. Was that staff trained? Maybe they were trained, maybe they were not held accountable. Do you have a bad procedure? Maybe the procedure needs adapted. mean, we think about that all the time, constantly adapting, constantly tweaking, and I think you have to do that in any business. If, like you said, in your list there if people don't want that accountability, there's always making excuses or they don't want to engage. They say, you know, and maybe they are a good clinician. They say, I'd rather just be in the operatory but my staff's a mess. Kiera, come on in here and whip them into shape and let me know when it's all good. You know, that's not how it works. That's not how it works. Kiera Dent (09:32) Exactly. No, not only they're part time. I'm not your manager. I'm not your leader. I'm not your boss. Morgan Hamon (09:38) Right, or you know what, I'm going to have an hour meeting with my accountant and that should solve it. Like, no, we're going to come up with some action items and then you need to execute those. So you have to own it. Everything's your problem when you own a business. ⁓ And if you own it and you engage, then I think we're on the right path to not be on that extensive list that you gave, which I just love. Kiera Dent (10:03) right? Yeah, no, and I love it. And it just made me actually think of something I heard a financial conference and they said EBITDA equals engagement. And I've thought about that a lot because the more engaged your team is, the more engaged you are, honestly, a lot of higher EBITDA there is, I won't leave our audience hanging. I do have the good list and maybe you can add to this to see. So the ones that I found like, that truly just knock it out of the park, these are our most successful right? I'm like, what is their DNA makeup that makes them this great leader? Morgan Hamon (10:22) Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Kiera Dent (10:32) and it's their great implementers. They allow the teams to be free, like within the parameters. So they've got a great team culture. They're great at decision-making. They execute, they're consistent. They roll with the punches. They have long-term teams. They make their decisions based on numbers. They're great visionaries. And they know what they're working towards. They don't get distracted. So there's this laser focus that they have. ⁓ And on here, I would also say that they have massive ownership. And they also are not afraid to have the uncomfortable conversations with their team. Morgan Hamon (10:52) Mm-hmm. Thank Mm-hmm. Kiera Dent (11:02) So like they truly do, they're excellent at it. They might not be excellent communicators, but they're excellent at like tidying it up, driving their team for success. Those are some of the things I see, but I'm curious if there's anything else you'd want to add to that list because I think you're right. But I think that's a DNA makeup, right? It's people who are disciplined. If I go into the gym, they probably have like strong work ethic. They are laser focused. It's just like, it's who they are in all the aspects of our life, but I don't think they're necessarily born that way. Morgan Hamon (11:10) Mm-hmm. Kiera Dent (11:30) I think a lot of them can be, but I think a lot of them create that over time as well. Like it's an evolution of them, not necessarily like, if I'm just born a great leader, like, no, they're constantly working on it, but I'm curious your thoughts. Morgan Hamon (11:34) Mm-hmm. Thanks Yeah, no, I think that's a good list. If I were to try to tie that together, I would say it's you lead from the front. you know, like all just a personal example for me, like responsiveness is a huge part of our culture. Like, you know, if clients reach out to us, they need to hear back like in a few hours, like today. Lead from the front. is not do what I say. It is do what I do and keep up. Keep up with me. Kiera Dent (12:03) Yeah. Morgan Hamon (12:12) Let me show you what I expect. You follow my example and let's go where I'm leading us. I think is when you own a dental practice, you have to do the same thing, whether that's in the daily huddle. You lead by example. If there's a certain patient experience you want your office to have, you have to lead that. They have to be emulating you and say, I sure hope I can do this as well as the doctor. ⁓ Lead from the front. I think you also have to make sure your team understands why their work is important. Kiera Dent (12:42) cream. Morgan Hamon (12:42) And I do that all the time. Why is our work important as well? Because our clients are these dentists. They're drowning in debt. They don't necessarily learn how to run a dental practice in dental school. They're trying to put it all together to make a nice living. And they have probably eight or 10 employees that are accounting on them for their jobs. So our work matters. We're working with people's lives here. So you really have to... ⁓ I think articulate why the work's important and maybe that's not as challenging and don't practice because everybody knows. It's care. They're there to get care. They're in the chair. They're scared. They want to be comfortable and everything's going to be okay. I think you got to lead from the front. You got to say, look, let's do what I do and make sure you keep up with me. Kiera Dent (13:32) Yeah, no, I love that. I just, think something that I love that you brought this up is I love when I have things internal, as much as it's annoying, that could actually help me become more profitable. It's like, hey, let me go to the gym and work out to be more disciplined. Let me read leadership books to learn how to lead. Let me practice uncomfortable conversations. Let me practice my decision-making. And the reality is like you becoming this person and leadership. Morgan Hamon (13:34) you Hehe. Mm-hmm. Kiera Dent (14:00) will equate to higher profitability. It's wild. Like I look back at maybe not so strong of leadership days and my business and profitability, I think definitely mirrored and matched where I was. And so also for us to say like, Hey, how do I maybe get to the next level? How can you evolve as a leader as well and be a bit stronger of that good version rather than the not so good version I think is really powerful. Morgan Hamon (14:10) Mm-hmm. Hehehe. Yeah, I think you really have to recognize whatever industry you're in that your technical skill and your leadership skill are completely different. You have to invest in those skills to acquire those and to maintain them. And just because you could be the most amazing CPA, just brilliant practitioner, that doesn't mean you're a good leader. You could be the most amazing clinician. Kiera Dent (14:35) 100. Morgan Hamon (14:51) and just do the most amazing work. That doesn't mean you're gonna be running a ⁓ great tunnel practice. You have to invest in those skills. Just being a smart person with some big degrees, that doesn't do it. You have to acquire those skills. And I didn't realize, I mean, when I was a younger guy in the Navy, I I learned all this. back then, I was just trying to do a good job and... get killed and and make it all happen. I didn't realize all these amazing lessons and training I was learning because they, mean leadership is, I mean that's first and foremost what we're there to do and so I was very fortunate in that regard but I don't, you you can't, no matter what business you're in, can't rest on your laurels. You got to always be thinking about leadership. Am I being a good leader? Okay, this is going sideways. I need to lead the team back, you know. I can't just, you know, write a memo. Kiera Dent (15:17) Yeah Morgan Hamon (15:44) Hey everybody, this is where we need to be. Follow me. Keep up with me. Kiera Dent (15:49) Yeah, no Morgan, that was such a brilliant piece and I really loved how you just highlighted it and so fun to see that what we see on the team side and the success of the growth and the production and the collections also now correlates with your financial PNL, ⁓ which I think is just magic and it all just ties together. But as you listen to this list and Morgan I talking about it, I also want to just say like if this does not light you up and you're like, ⁓ gosh. Morgan Hamon (16:05) Mm-hmm Kiera Dent (16:17) That's okay. You actually can just be an amazing clinician and have somebody actually be the great leader. Just because you opened the practice and you do the dentistry does not mean you need to be the leader of the practice. So I've seen some doctors actually be great implementers. Like they actually would rather execute, implement, do all the ideas and have somebody else be the visionary. That's okay too. And I think like my best thing is know thyself and be free. But if you want to be more profitable, look at this. And I want to take like a sharp Morgan Hamon (16:18) Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Hmm. Mm-hmm. Yes. Kiera Dent (16:46) right turn Morgan and talk taxes. It's like, didn't know how to awkwardly like transition. So I'm just gonna like, but I want to talk taxes because I'm like, this also ties into the discipline of leadership, the ownership of leadership and like being freaking savvy to learn how to do taxes better. Like Morgan, I had this client the other day and we were talking and we built this like cute little overhead scorecard for people. We have the EBITDA on there. It comes from the CPAs. So we're like, just make it very simple, like black and white. Morgan Hamon (16:53) Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. you Kiera Dent (17:15) And then I was like, wait a second, I should throw a tax bucket on there. So like what you're getting paid for your W-2 plus what your profit is, like that gets taxed. I have a doctor, she has been an owner, we're talking 20 plus years. She's like, Kiera, I never knew that my profit had to get taxed. Like I never knew that that extra cash, like I just thought that was cash that came to me. And I'm like, this is why doctors are always broke because they don't know how this works out. So I'm super excited to talk about. Morgan Hamon (17:21) Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. you Mm-hmm. No. Right. Mm hmm. Kiera Dent (17:45) tax planning, it's mid-year, let's make sure you're not crying in December and like, popping the confetti. Morgan Hamon (17:46) Yeah. Yeah, right. And crying in December. if you recall, ⁓ my topic was just kind of the psychology of tax. And again, this has evolved over time with a lot of conversations. I think... Kiera Dent (17:54) was New York I'm The is like the wise sage over there, Morgan. Like you got, like, just, you're just hanging out over there. Morgan Hamon (18:09) Well, it's always trying to, you know, I think about my conversations. How do we kind of empower these dentists to achieve this? And it's all through, I think, education. You've got to understand why. Like this doctor, 20-year-old, didn't understand. Kiera Dent (18:29) I was like, no, I'm not wearing a strip. Morgan Hamon (18:30) Every initial consultation I'm having now with a startup doctor, we do a tax 101 just real quick, takes me like five minutes. Let's get our hands on some concepts here. Why I think this is important to really understand and talk about tax, just kind of how it makes us feel, is because we've had some instances where you have a doctor, and let's just say on our previous conversation, this is how we're gonna tie it together, right? So we have the doctors on that secondary list, They're rock star. They're killing it. They're making tons of cash. They're engaging the right people. They got the right people in place, and it ultimately results in a lot of success. I've seen people do that, but then when it comes time for tax, they lose sight of all that, and they get just really obsessed about that tax bill. They lose what I'll think of as like peace and fulfillment. just at the start of the call, I recently got remarried and my wife and I, we talk about that a lot, peace and fulfillment. Why do we have that in life? And that's what we're working for. And I think when you own a business, you're working towards something, right? And we want to have that peace and fulfillment. And I've seen that just get destroyed with people because they get very emotional and overly focused on their tax. And I see the logic just sort of exit stage left. and we just end up with this very emotional reaction to tax. And who I tend to really direct this conversation to is not necessarily what you just described, Bill. That's kind an interesting one. Usually if someone's been making great money 20 years, they kind of know the program. It is, Kiera, it's the newer owners making real money for the first time in their lives. And that is where there's an adjustment. There's a mental journey they have to go on. Kiera Dent (20:21) 100. Morgan Hamon (20:29) And so what I thought today, like, I guarantee you we have some listeners as soon as they heard tax, they're like, what's on their mind is, what's the secret? How do I save more on tax? Well, it does. So, right? So we're going to get to that. All right. Well, we'll get to that. But before we do that, I thought, let's have some straight talk. Kiera Dent (20:40) It does feel like the CPA's hold back or the secret robot. mean, tell me your Harry Potter rules there, Morgan. I just want to know. I need to find one CPA that just knows the secrets of the trade. Yeah. Morgan Hamon (20:58) Let's have some straight talk on tax. Why is this emotional? Why is this hard? Let's just take the journey of a doctor that is an associate doing pretty well with their W-2. We all think that we all go in W-2s. You have mandatory withholding. It comes out of your check, gets fired off to the government. You get your net check and you might look at your paycheck and go, what's all this stuff? don't know. I got my net check. I'm to plan my life around this net check. Then we do the tax return. There's always a little settle up. You might owe a little, get all my back. You always hope to get a little money back, but generally you just plan your life with never having your hands on that money as a W-2. So now we own a business. You get all that money and then we now have to turn around and pay it back. Now keep in mind your tax rates. Okay. If you are married, Google the 2025 tax rates, right? That's what they are. That's what they are. If you're an employee. Kiera Dent (21:44) Yep. Morgan Hamon (21:55) That's what they are if you're the owner of a pass-through business. They are the same. But that act of having to turn around and write a check just is, you gotta become comfortable with that and it's an adjustment. ⁓ And here's the other thing where if we just, okay, let's take all our emotions about tax, let's just kind put it over the side and let's just talk very logically. Kiera Dent (22:12) I agree. Morgan Hamon (22:23) If you're gonna make three times as much money, what's also going to be three times as much? Your tax. But it's actually maybe a little bit more, right? We got a progressive tax system, right? So, I think when people become high earners, and they go through the grieving process, Kiera Dent (22:36) see what we feel. It's awesome. Morgan Hamon (22:48) And I guarantee you, I'll just talk through this briefly, but Gary, you and I have both been through this. And the doctors that are killing it and making lots of money, they've probably been through it too. But if we think about the grieving process, what's the first step? All right, it's denial. Okay, it's the first year you went from making 200 grand as an associate and now making 700 grand. And we've already written off the equipment and now we got 700 grand income. And you get your tax plan and you're like, what? This isn't for me. Kiera Dent (22:54) Yes. Morgan Hamon (23:17) Honey, think our email got hacked. We got this, this can't be right. This isn't mine. You go full on denial, this can't be right. And then we're like, no, I'm sorry. I'm sorry, that is your tax plan. And then we immediately go to anger. I'm so mad. thought Morgan was, I thought Morgan was this cool guy. I'm mad at him. Kiera Dent (23:22) I'm Hmm? I need a different CPA, Morgan. I'm finding a different Harry Potter wizard. I need someone better than you. Not today, I'm out of here. Morgan Hamon (23:45) You get angry. You're like, what the heck? I got this tax bill. So you get kind of angry. And then you go into bargaining and say, you know what? I'm going to go buy a CEREC machine tomorrow. Say, OK. I mean, do you need that? mean, do you do a lot of grounds? So you get all, I'm going to do this, this, and then where people are really in troubles and they stop making their estimated payments. Well, this can't be right. This can't Kiera Dent (23:53) Hahaha. Ha Morgan Hamon (24:14) I'm going to go, I'm going to buy this and this and this. And then we start, there's a 6,000 pound truck. I'm going to go buy this big truck. And I kind of joke around a little bit. Yeah. So you get into bargaining, right? And then you're like, OK, well, gosh, I don't need any other equipment. I'm already doing the stuff. And then you get into depression. You're like, really? Am I going to? I guess this just stinks. And then finally, get to acceptance. Kiera Dent (24:23) G-Wagon right now. I'm gonna brand it. Morgan Hamon (24:43) and you realize if you're a high earner, there is a corresponding bill. Now that can be managed. There are ways for legal, perfectly legal tax avoidance to get into the so-called secrets. But you go through this journey. This has just been my, I guess, my 15-year research project. I've been through it personally myself, and I'm a CPA, and I still like writing this check. Dang. ⁓ Kiera Dent (25:06) same. you Morgan Hamon (25:13) But, so that's what we have to, I think, wrap our head around, you understand that. And I encourage people, look, if you're a dentist, and maybe this dentist joins the seven figure club, right? You got seven figure profit, that's pretty amazing, right? That's really good income. But you will have a six figure tax bill. And that's okay. That's okay. ⁓ Kiera Dent (25:37) You will. Morgan Hamon (25:42) And you just, got to get through to acceptance and take comfort in that you are engaged to take advantage of the legal opportunities that are out there for proper tax avoidance. And that's the, we talk about the secrets, you know, I see these clowns on, on YouTube of like, ⁓ I know the secrets of the tax code. mean, if you see that, I mean, just run. ⁓ There are no secrets. They're all well-known. Like I know all our competitors in our, the dental field and I'm on friendly terms with many of them. We all know these. We all know the stuff that can be done. Legal tax avoidance. here's, we'll call it the secret, ⁓ Dentists, everyone's part of it. Here's the secrets, okay? Here's the secret. When you have a pass through business, which is what these dental practices are, right? So the business, and this will shed some light on your client 20 years, right? Your business does not pay income tax. The business tax return Kiera Dent (26:22) Everybody's perking up right now, Morgan. They're like, okay. Morgan Hamon (26:42) is math. It's absurdly complex math, but it quantifies the profit that's passed it through and gets listed on your personal tax return. And you owe income tax on that profit. That's what it means by pass through. And it's all ordinary income tax. There's no special tax rate for business owners. It's ordinary income tax. So how do we save money? Here's the secret. We have to capture as many expenses that we're otherwise incurring and capture those as business deductions. When we do that, that lowers profit. Less profit passes through to the personal tax return, you pay less tax. That's the secret. So you have to execute the strategies, right? The home office is perfect for doctors. Totally substantiated, totally mainstream deduction. That's what justifies the car. You can deduct a car, but that means you have to be engaged. You have to get the mile IQ. You have to understand what is your business percentage use. You have to do this right. You have to document it. There's things you have to do right. Take your board meeting. ⁓ If the cash flow allows, have a qualified retirement plan. Take full advantage of that. ⁓ If you're okay with having staff over to your house, have those meetings at home and have the office rent it from you. again, these aren't... People know these. This isn't... I'd love to tell you I'm some genius that went and studied the tax code and formulated all these myself. This is out there. What you're engaging with your CPA is folks that will actually bring this to you and do it, but ultimately the doctor has to do it. What I think about is if someone thinks, well, I'm just going to have an hour meeting with my account at the end of the year and they're just going to take care of all of this. That's like saying, you know what? Kiera Dent (28:07) haha cringe. Morgan Hamon (28:30) I know I need to work out and eat right to be healthy but I'm just going to go meet with my doc this fall and that should do it. Maybe they'll give me a pill that'll make me in shape and healthy. But no, you got to do the stuff. So if your accountant tells you, look, take a board meeting, document it properly, there's a proper way to do it, you got to do it. That's how we say the proper legal avoidance. your account comes to you and says, look, it's time to be an S-Corp, Kiera Dent (28:51) Mm-hmm. Morgan Hamon (29:00) because the profit is appropriate, you gotta follow the instruction. There's a procedure there and it's gonna save a lot of money on self-employment payroll tax if it's done correctly. You gotta listen, but you gotta engage. There's action items. And so we, ⁓ every September, I made a checklist. You know, again, Navy guy, right? I got a checklist. Log in, do the checklist. I call it our business tax savings maximizer. That's the flashiest, catchiest name I could think of. But like, log in and do it. That's the secret. Kiera Dent (29:19) I love it. you Morgan Hamon (29:29) So, you know, for those listeners that waiting for the secret, that's it, right? We got to capture expenses as business deductions and there is action items for the doctor. It requires that engagement. And to circle back to where what you said earlier, like you can't come into the office and just fix it for them. They've got responsibilities on things to do too and that's the same with tax policy. Kiera Dent (29:53) I thought that was such a beautiful way. And as you were going through the phases of grief, I'm like, oh yeah, I definitely lived all of those. Thanks for kicking it off with Top Gun, ending with like tack strategy. Thanks for sharing some of the tips. But truly super honored to work with you and love what you guys are doing for dentists out there. Morgan Hamon (30:04) Alright. Kiera, I always enjoy our visits and look forward to each one. So I appreciate you having me. I really enjoyed it. Kiera Dent (30:16) course. And for all of you listening, thank you for listening and I'll catch you next time on The Dental A Team podcast.

In this profound solo transmission, Dr. Samuel B. Lee, MD reveals the rarely spoken truths from the Eternal Flame Records—teachings preserved in the CDT plates and safeguarded by the Melchizedek Cloister Emerald Order.Dive deep as Dr. Lee unpacks how ancient off-planet factions, hybrid bloodlines, and distorted religious texts engineered a multidimensional takeover of Earth's most sacred energy centers.

Beloved,I swear, every time I turn around I am channeling and discovering yet - another suppressed truth hidden from our inheritance. Today, it's not TABOO, its full of wonder and intimacy.Everyone says sexuality is about intimacy, pleasure, or reproduction.I believed that too—and for a long time, I felt separated from my deepest creative power.But something inside shifted after learning about the divine, the energy of creation and how we've got SEXUALITY ALL WRONG. I'm not talking strictly SEX.When I began studying the ancient science of the womb and DNA, I discovered our sacred energy is a portal—meant for unity, healing, and the activation of higher wisdom.Here's why reclaiming your sexual sovereignty may transform everything.Reclaiming your sexual power isn't just about intimacy—it's about activating the deepest creative force within you.For centuries, spiritual seekers have sensed something missing: a disconnect from sacred sexuality and the true potential of the womb.Here's the core challenge.Most of us grew up with distorted ideas about sex and creative energy.We're taught to focus on physical pleasure or reproduction, but not on the multi-dimensional wisdom encoded within us.The original purpose of sexual energy runs deeper than we've imagined.It's a frequency technology, designed to bridge souls, awaken dormant DNA, and heal fragmentation.The womb—present energetically in all beings—isn't only for birthing children.It's a portal for visions, timelines, and planetary renewal.Throughout history, this sacred power has been masked and misunderstood.Ancient teachers who mastered these mysteries saw their wisdom suppressed and their archetypes rewritten.The loss of this divine feminine wisdom left a lingering imprint of shame, division, and disconnection Yet the invitation now is to remember.Sexual sovereignty means consciously stewarding your creative life force—in union with love, truth, and source.It's the process of healing old wounds, clearing ancestral trauma, and embodying the original unity blueprint.This isn't just esoteric theory.Through breathwork, sacred ceremony, clear intention, and holographic readings, you can access your soul's archives, heal generational wounds, and awaken previously dormant strands of DNA.Transformation truly happens.Intuitive gifts reawaken, your sense of purpose repairs, and you begin to participate in planetary healing—simply by reclaiming the multi-dimensional power of your sexual energy and womb.If you're ready to experience this shift, consider trying a guided holographic reading or exploring the Oracle Journey app.Let's restore wholeness, ignite creativity, and anchor new possibilities for ourselves and the planet.If you are ready to experience this shift, consider a guided holographic reading or explore the Oracle Journey app.It's time to restore wholeness, ignite creativity, and anchor new possibilities for ourselves and for the planet.Reference

Cum și-a început mandatul președintele Nicușor Dan / Alergător pe lângă minge (G4Media) - După doi ani și o criză majoră, Nicușor Dan are de luat o decizie grea. Diversiunea Cioloș la SRI (SpotMedia) Cum și-a început mandatul președintele Nicușor Dan / Alergător pe lângă minge (G4Media) Dezastruos ar fi cuvântul potrivit. În primele două luni după câștigarea alegerilor, președintele Nicușor Dan a arătat că nu dispune de suficientă forță pentru a-și impune voința politică, a comis cel puțin o eroare majoră și a demonstrat o capacitate limitată de înțelegere a mecanismelor statului, precum și zero instincte politice, scrie jurnalistul Dan Tăpălagă. Un șef de stat dispune de multă legitimitate și de o putere reală, dacă știe cum să le folosească. Când nu o face, tot sistemul îi miroase imediat neputința. Așa se face că, în justiție, nu i-a ieșit mai nimic: Inspecția Judiciară, Înalta Curte, judecătorul propus de PSD la CCR (Mihai Busuioc) — toți provin din tabăra anti-reformistă. Și toți au defilat nestingheriți pe sub nasul indiferent al președintelui Dan. Adăugați la acest tablou și catastrofa de negociere politică de la formarea guvernului, unde PSD a obținut cam tot ce și-a dorit — inclusiv Ministerul Justiției. Altfel spus, tot PSD va propune viitorii procurori-șefi ai DNA și Parchetului General, pe care Nicușor Dan ar dori să-i schimbe. Foarte bine, doar că tocmai le-a cedat PSD-ului puterea de a face noile numiri. Cel mai spectaculos autogol a fost atacarea la CCR a legii care înăsprește pedepsele pentru propaganda extremistă. Nicușor Dan a folosit, practic, aceleași argumente cu Călin Georgescu, George Simion, AUR și Diana Șoșoacă. Președintele mai are o ultimă șansă de reabilitare, odată cu numirea șefilor de servicii secrete, anunțată pentru toamnă. Integral pe pagina G4Media. După doi ani și o criză majoră, Nicușor Dan are de luat o decizie grea. Diversiunea Cioloș la SRI (SpotMedia) Numele lui Dacian Cioloș a fost vehiculat intens în ultimele săptămâni în spațiul public ca reprezentând alegerea lui Nicușor Dan pentru șefia SRI, dar nu a existat nicio discuție între cei doi pe această temă, conform unor surse Spotmedia.ro, speculațiile fiind extrem de asemănătoare cu cele dezvoltate în jurul numirii unui judecător CCR de către noul președinte. Oamenii politici din România au o legătură complicată și netransparentă cu serviciile de informații, iar compromisurile și lipsa de control civil asupra acestora au devenit critice pentru nivelul de încredere din societate în instituțiile statului. Liderii politici cred că raportul de forțe din coaliție depinde de cine va conduce SRI și SIE. Consultarea președintelui cu partidele nu va fi legată de nume, pentru că atributul nominalizării îi revine șefului statului, ci mai degrabă va fi legată de tatonarea șefilor de partide pentru obținerea unor reacții cu privire la votul din Parlament vizavi de o propunere sau alta. Profesorul universitar Andrei Țăranu, explică în exclusivitate pentru Spotmedia.ro puterea unui președinte și legătura cu serviciile secrete. O lege a serviciilor secrete ar trebui făcută de societatea civilă și experți independenți, spune expertul Toate încercările de modificarea a legislației de funcționare a serviciilor de informații s-au soldat cu eșecuri răsunătoare, în principal din cauza faptului că proiectele au fost realizate de oameni din interior sau de asociați ai acestora, fiind contestate puternic de opinia publică. Misiune Imposibilă: Dan și Bolojan și cele 24 de luni în care trebuie să salveze România de ea însăși (PressOne) Misiunea uriașă care le stă în față atât lui Nicușor Dan, cât și lui Ilie Bolojan: să convingă nu doar sute de politicieni obișnuiți cu hoția ca stil de viață prosper, ci și milioane de români obișnuiți să se descurce cum pot, deseori prin mici furtișaguri, doar ca să supraviețuiască. Dar cum poți face asta într-o țară în care toată lumea fură? Cum poți vorbi despre dreptate socială când magistrații - tocmai cei care se presupune că ar trebui să facă dreptate - și-au făcut stat în stat și se ceartă cu premierul pe media de vârstă la care binevoiesc să iasă la pensie - că o fi 52 de ani, iar nu 48, cum spune Bolojan? Cum poți repara relația cu acest popor care a votat la două mâini cu PSD și populiștii timp de 35 de ani, dar care a avut pretenția ca răspunderea pentru populism să și-o asume altcineva? În fine, cum poți lupta în răspăr cu un popor mânios și care respinge exact singurele surse de bunăstare care pot ține România în viață în următorii ani - fondurile și valorile europene? Jurnalistul PressOne Adrian Mihălțianu remarcă faptul că s-a acordat o atenție sporită nedreptăților pe care le fac bugetarii (cu mic, cu mare, la grămadă) și privații (mai ales companiile alea mari și străine, care nu-și păstrează, domnule, profiturile în țară), și o atenție foarte scăzută pușculiței de bani a partidelor și a rețelelor lor mafiote din teritoriu: celebrul PNDL / Anghel Saligny, programul din care se hrănesc miile de primari din teritoriu și mai ales baronii locali care au definit aceste partide în ultimii 30 de ani. Înțeleg că domnul Bolojan nu poate isteriza din prima clientela politică PNL și PSD și că trebuie să-și pregătească atent următorii pași dacă vrea să rămână la guvernare suficient timp cât să urnească lucrurile, însă absența acestui program extrem de dăunător stabilității economice a României din prim-planul discuțiilor publice nu e un semn bun, mai notează editorialistul. În opinia sa, România poate scădea foarte rapid o bună parte din deficitul său bugetar dacă reorientează integral fondurile rămase necontractate din Anghel Saligny către finanțări proprii în proiecte europene.

Megyn Kelly begins the show by discussing the possibility that the Trump administration will be releasing more on Jeffrey Epstein now, why the story really matters even if it isn't the most important story in the country or world, the need for journalists to stay on it and get to the truth, the nuances in the Epstein and Diddy story and why not all alleged victims are to be believed, the hypocrisy from some in the press who covered for Biden's cognitive decline now trying to spin Epstein to hurt Trump, and more. Then Vicky Ward, author of "The Idaho Four," joins to discuss the facts we know about whether Epstein was an intel asset or "belonged to intelligence," the significance of Ghislaine Maxwell's father Robert Maxwell, Alex Acosta's past non-answers, the details of Epstein's strange career path, how he supposedly got wealthy, the circles he ran in that included Ehud Barak and Bill Clinton, how he was able to get the cushy plea deal, how Epstein threatened her unborn children while she investigated his finances and real estate for Vanity Fair, how he infiltrated newsrooms to manipulate coverage, why his intimidation tactics went unchecked for years, new reporting about the roommate who was Bryan Kohberger's main target, his behavior mirroring past killers, how investigators used DNA technology to crack what was nearly the perfect crime, and more.

Today, you will hear information about testing your male partner with a relatively new test called SpermQT. This week, the Fertility Docs, Dr. Carrie Bedient from the Fertility Center of Las Vegas, Dr. Susan Hudson from Texas Fertility Center, and Dr. Abby Eblen from Nashville Fertility Center welcome a groundbreaking guest: Dr. Kristen Brogaard, Chief Scientific Officer and Founder of Path Fertility. Kristen joins the Docs to discuss SpermQT, one of the first major innovations in male fertility testing in years. SpermQT goes beyond a traditional semen analysis to assess sperm DNA and determine whether sperm is capable of fertilizing an egg. If the SpermQT test is abnormal, it strongly suggests that natural conception or IUI will likely fail, making IVF the recommended next step.Kristen shares how Path Fertility is conducting multiple studies to evaluate pregnancy outcomes when the SpermQT test is applied to men whose partners conceive naturally or through IUI and aims to track pregnancy through delivery. Future analysis in the IVF lab will evaluate fertilization and embryo development in men with normal versus abnormal testing. SpermQT is helping to redefine how we understand male fertility, challenging the outdated assumption that a normal semen analysis equals fertility. If you order the test the DISCOUNT CODE is FDU.

Theresa Werba was born in 1962 in New York City to a 17-year-old formerprostitute. She was given up for adoption at three months old. She was placed with a loving foster mother until she was 13 months old, when she was taken away for technical reasons and placed with an older couple with ties to a New Age religious cult.She endured a bizarre childhood of emotional and physical abuse and left homeat the age of 15. She was disinherited by both adoptive parents upon their deaths.Theresa found her birth mother in 1984 and has had a positive relationship withher for over 40 years. Theresa was told a certain individual was her biological father and legally assumed his last name for over 30 years. In 2020, Theresa was able to locate her biological father through DNA testing via two half-sisters. He was a completely different person from the one her mother remembered. Unfortunately, he died in 2019. He never knew that Theresa existed. Theresa legally changed her last name to his in 2020 and is exceedingly happy with her newly harmonized genetic identity.Theresa is an author, poet, and singer. Her book, When Adoption Fails: Abuse,Autism, and The Search for My Identity, describes the unusual and peculiar life she had growing up in an abusive adoptive home with undiagnosed autism, and the search for, and discovery of both her biological parents.

The discovery of “black goo” on a boat in Ohio has created a lot of speculation, especially after it was studied by the University of Minnesota Duluth and found to have “20 DNA sequences... including one that was completely novel.” Black Goo has been seen in countless movies, tv shows, music videos, and even commercials. At its core, the black represents void and abyss, the goo being nothing but an amorphous substance or blank canvas on which to paint anything. On a more literal level, this goo is real, be it faulty asphalt or raw sewage. In the case of what was found in Ohio, it is something very genetically mysterious. From the X Files and Prometheus the substance is an alien virus or mutagenic pathogen. In District 9 it is a biological agent. In Venom it is a symbiot. In Star Trek it is a conscious of malevolence. In Lucy the substance is a drug that eventually allows for evolution of the chapter into a super-advanced intelligence transcending space and time as a black goo computer - when IBM unveiled their quantum computer it appeared as black goo in a clear black box. A few days previous there were two reports about a creature existing between life and death, and small xenobots operating in human cells after the body has died. The strange creature was called “Sukunaarchaeum mirabile,” a name coming from Japanese mythology: Sukuna & Bikona. Sukuna translates as “lesser name” or “small" Bikona translates as “divine” or “renown.” The name represses the deity Sukunabikona's diminutive stature and humble or lesser status. It is often depicted as a small figure riding in a tiny boat or working alongside the more prominent deity Ōkuninushi. Boats are vessels of guidance across rivers like Nile or Styx, and they also bring civilizers like Oannes, Osiris, and Quetzalcoatl. A Japanese movie called The Boy and the Heron is the recent release from Studio Ghibili, featuring a heron that acts like Charon on the river Styx. The boat in Ohio that passed black goo was also called the Blue Heron. This black substance can also be found in Princess Mononoke, Howl's Moving Castle, and Spirit Away. The Japanese connection is made strange when learning that scientists from that country were working on the hybrid creature in the X Files episode Nisei, which also means second generate, relating it to the Sukuna and that which generates secondarily. In other words, Sukunabikona and Nisei are the Japanese version of homunculus, or little diminutive human which in biology acts as a symbol of sperm in the microcosm. In the macrocosm it is the comet. It must not be coincidence that since 2017 we have seen three interstellar objects pass through our solar system: Oumuamua, Borisov and Atlas in July 2025. The latter two were comets, made distinct by their tail, essentially making them sperm - “panspermia” means the chaotic distortion of life from the sperm comet to the egg planet. The black substance has also been part of the Covid narrative, due to something called black fungus that people have coughed up. It is therefore strange to find black substances in Moderna vaccines that were pulled from the market in several prefectures in Japan. We just learned this month that AG Pam Bondi just stopped an investigation into Pfizer, a company she was once legal counsel for. This comes after her dropping the Epstein client list, part of a large intelligence gathering operation and blackmail ring largely run by the MOSSAD of Israel. Things get even strange when considering that Epstein was working on a human engineering project with scientists and genetic researchers. It must not be a coincidence that the Trump administration on day one initiated the next stage of the Stargate project, pertaining to universal cancer shots or that RFK Jr. at the HHS authorized universal and flu vaccine development. The top four leaders at Pfizer and Moderna are 75% Jewish with ties to Israel, just as the Stargate Project is 50% the same. And to top it all off, on July 4, the President existed a black cube with his wife wearing a white dress and a black strap, both of which appear to represent the Tefillin worn by Jews, the very group RFK Jr. says are the least effected by Covid. That cube also appeared to display what looks like the entity in Mission Impossible, i.e., a truth eating digital parasite. *The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

In this episode of Superpowers for Good, guest Kevin Shird shared a profound perspective on how mental health challenges contribute to poor decision-making and the cycle of incarceration. Kevin, a professor, author, and advocate, is no stranger to the justice system, having experienced it firsthand. Now, he's using his story to create a roadmap for change.Kevin explained that unresolved trauma often plays a central role in the repetitive cycles of poor choices many individuals make post-incarceration. “Poor choices are actually tied to unresolved trauma,” he stated, adding, “when trauma is unresolved, there's a propensity for continuing this hamster wheel of just poor choices after poor choices.” His insights shed light on a key issue: the need for better mental health care within prisons to address these deeply rooted issues before individuals reenter society.Kevin shared the heartbreaking story of a friend he met while incarcerated—a man who initially served a short sentence but, after his release, committed a double murder and now faces life in prison. The tragedy, Kevin emphasized, could have been prevented with better mental health support during his friend's incarceration. “Hurt people hurt people,” Kevin explained. “When people aren't well... sometimes their struggles land in our laps.”Kevin advocates for placing licensed clinical social workers inside prisons as a proactive solution. He pointed out that 95% of incarcerated individuals will eventually return to society, becoming our neighbors, coworkers, and community members. By providing mental health support behind prison walls, he believes we can reduce recidivism, enhance public safety, and foster healthier communities.This episode reinforced the urgent need for systemic reform to prioritize mental health care in the criminal justice system. Kevin's work, including his book A Life for a Life, serves as both a call to action and a source of hope. Through his advocacy, he's demonstrating how addressing trauma can transform lives and break cycles of harm.By highlighting these issues, Kevin reminded us that change is possible—and it starts with seeing the humanity in everyone.tl;dr:Kevin Shird shares how unresolved trauma drives recidivism and advocates for better mental health care.He highlights the importance of placing licensed social workers in prisons to support incarcerated individuals.Kevin recounts a tragic story to illustrate how unaddressed trauma leads to devastating consequences.He explains his superpower of authentic connection and how storytelling fosters healing and understanding.Kevin encourages vulnerability to build deeper relationships and drive meaningful change in the world.How to Develop Authentic Connection As a SuperpowerKevin Shird's superpower lies in his ability to authentically connect with people through storytelling. “I pride myself on just being able to build real relationships,” Kevin explained. He emphasized the importance of “removing the mask” to connect with others on a deeper, human level. By sharing his vulnerabilities and personal experiences, Kevin creates bonds that inspire healing and understanding. “Everybody has a story,” he said, reminding us that even when our struggles differ, they are all significant and worthy of empathy.Kevin recounted how sharing a vulnerable story about his father's alcoholism in his first book led to powerful connections with readers. Despite initial embarrassment, he wrote about his father's addiction, and the response was overwhelming. Readers reached out to share their own experiences with addicted family members, often in tears. This demonstrated how his authenticity in storytelling inspired others to confront and heal from their own struggles.Tips for Developing Authentic Connection:Remove the emotional “mask” and embrace vulnerability.Recognize that everyone has a story, even if it differs from yours.Focus on building genuine human connections by listening and empathizing.Use storytelling to create shared experiences and inspire others.By following Kevin's example and advice, you can make authentic connection a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses.

This week, Jack Sharry talks with Jeffrey Levi and Rafael Couto for a deep dive into the future of wealth management. Jeffrey is a Principal at Casey Quirk Deloitte and leads the firm's Strategy Offering for Financial Services. He advises wealth and asset managers on complex strategic challenges and spearheads research in areas like private credit, alternative investments, and evolving investment strategies. Rafael, a Senior Manager at Deloitte, helps wealth managers and retirement providers navigate large-scale technology and operational transformations. He focuses on boosting efficiency and improving service delivery, particularly in the growing convergence of workplace and wealth management. Together, they unpack Casey Quirk's latest white paper, which outlines five key growth drivers for the wealth management industry over the next decade. They explore the critical capabilities top-performing firms are building—and how these firms are aligning strategy, technology, and operations to deliver stronger growth and better client experiences. In this episode: (00:00) - Intro (02:37) - Why Deloitte is doubling down on wealth management research (04:03) - Casey Quirk's research participants (06:01) - The five core drivers of future growth in wealth management (09:43) - How these capabilities show up across different channels (11:00) - What it means to build a “transformative DNA” within a firm (15:30) - The challenge of delivering a truly holistic client experience (19:40) - How leading firms are earning and maintaining client trust (24:30) - Why the core wealth platform is becoming a key competitive edge (26:52) - Taking an end-to-end approach to platform design (29:14) - What the future of work looks like in this space (33:17) - Rafael's and Jeffrey's interests outside of work Quotes "In our advisory work, we're seeing a widening gap in performance, growth, and advisor and client experience in the overall marketplace. Some firms are winning, some firms are clearly more stagnant, and in some cases, some firms are starting to decay." ~ Jeffrey Levi "The ecosystem that exists today is going to look very different in five to 10 years because service providers are all evolving to become technology providers. We're seeing massive convergence across servicers, technology firms, clearing and custody firms, TAMPs. We're seeing IBDs want to launch a platform as a service model to serve other parts of the landscape." ~ Jeffrey Levi "When we looked at the characteristics of those that are growing faster, we really saw that they're shaping their services around financial advice and having that at the center of the journey." ~ Rafael Couto "When we say end-to-end, it is what you put in front of the client that matters. But then you have to think all the way down to the operational component, and how you bring everything together. The value you bring to the client is what really makes you win in the market." ~ Rafael Couto Links Jeffrey Levi on LinkedIn Casey Quirk, A Deloitte Business Rafael Couto on LinkedIn Deloitte Chip Roame Ridgefield 8 Bocce Connect with our hosts LifeYield Jack Sharry on LinkedIn Jack Sharry on Twitter Subscribe and stay in touch Apple Podcasts Spotify LinkedIn Twitter Facebook
Dave got some DNA test results, we try to pick up new rules, and more!
Is Scoliosis Hereditary? Exploring the Genetic Link and Why It May Not Matter for Treatment Receiving a scoliosis diagnosis often sparks a cascade of questions:“How did I get this?”“Did I inherit it?”“What can I do about it?” In this episode of the Scoliosis Treatment podcast, Dr. Tony Nalda breaks down one of the most common concerns—whether scoliosis is hereditary—and explains why discovering the “why” may not always impact how we treat the condition. Family History vs. Genetic Cause Patients frequently share that scoliosis “runs in the family.” But does that mean it's genetic? Dr. Nalda explains that scoliosis tends to cluster in families, but no single gene has ever been definitively linked to idiopathic scoliosis. Even identical twins—who share the exact same DNA—may have different outcomes, with one developing scoliosis and the other not. This strongly suggests that while there may be hereditary tendencies, scoliosis is not directly caused by genetics alone. Different Types of Scoliosis (And Their Causes) To understand where heredity may play a role, it's important to look at the four main types of scoliosis: Idiopathic Scoliosis Makes up 80% of cases Cause: Unknown (idiopathic) Most often seen in adolescents Believed to be multifactorial, possibly involving environmental, developmental, and minor genetic influences Neuromuscular Scoliosis Associated with conditions like cerebral palsy, Marfan syndrome, or Ehlers-Danlos syndrome More likely to have a genetic or systemic origin Congenital Scoliosis Present at birth due to malformed vertebrae (e.g., hemivertebra) Truly genetic/developmental in nature Degenerative or Traumatic Scoliosis Caused by injury or wear and tear Often appears in adulthood Not hereditary—these result from physical changes over time Why “Cause” Doesn't Always Change the Outcome Dr. Nalda uses a powerful analogy: “If an earthquake causes a building to collapse, we may study the cause—but the most urgent need is to rebuild the structure.” Similarly, scoliosis—regardless of the cause—becomes a structural problem that must be corrected. Many cases are diagnosed long after the original cause (if any) occurred, and chasing the “why” doesn't usually change how the curve affects the spine today. Can Idiopathic Scoliosis Be Treated Without Knowing the Cause? Yes.Dr. Nalda emphasizes that effective scoliosis treatment doesn't depend on knowing the exact cause. At the Scoliosis Reduction Center, idiopathic cases are treated with a multimodal approach, including: Scoliosis-specific chiropractic care Customized physical therapy and rehab Scoliosis-specific exercises Corrective bracing These strategies focus on correcting the structural changes in the spine—not just the symptoms—and help stop curve progression over time. Bottom Line: Focus on the Solution, Not Just the Source While the question "Is scoliosis hereditary?" is understandable, the better question might be: What can I do now to manage it? Whether the root is genetic, environmental, or unknown, scoliosis can be treated effectively—especially when addressed early and proactively.
Why do some people experience instant healing, while others struggle for years, despite doing “everything right”? In this mind-expanding episode of The Catherine Plano Podcast, filmmaker, consciousness researcher, and spiritual teacher Caroline Cory shares the groundbreaking truth about how our thoughts, intentions, and energy shape our health, reality, and even our DNA. From her earliest spiritual experiences as a child to conducting scientific experiments that prove the power of consciousness, Caroline reveals why most healing methods fail—and what it really takes to create lasting transformation from within. This isn't just a conversation about mindset or manifestation—it's a deep dive into the mechanics of consciousness itself. Caroline explores how trauma gets stored in the subconscious and imprinted into our cells, why affirmations and visualisations often don't work, and how tapping into the superconscious field allows us to shift energy instantly, sometimes resulting in physical miracles. Through jaw-dropping stories, measurable scientific studies, and a refreshingly clear explanation of complex concepts, Caroline breaks down: Why intention alone isn't enough—and what's really blocking your healing How to clear subconscious patterns stored at the cellular level What science says about how thoughts affect DNA, water, and energy fields How children are being trained to see blindfolded through expanded consciousness Why your personal healing uplifts the collective consciousness How you can tap into your innate superhuman abilities Caroline also shares her journey of teaching others to access their intuitive abilities, reprogram their cellular memory, and step into their truest energetic frequency. Whether you’re dealing with health challenges, emotional trauma, or simply seeking to live with more awareness and alignment, this episode is a masterclass in what it means to become the conscious creator of your life. If you've ever wondered how far your consciousness can really go—this episode will change the way you think about your body, your mind, and your purpose. About Caroline Cory Caroline Cory is an award-winning filmmaker, author, and expert in the fields of consciousness, energy medicine, and quantum science.

Composers John Murphy and David Fleming join guest host Jon Burlingame to discuss their original score for “Superman,” directed by James Gunn. In this two-part conversation, Murphy and Fleming share their personal connections to the character, the emotional and thematic goals of the music, and the creative process of scoring an iconic superhero story for a new generation. They also reflect on the legacy of John Williams's original theme and how it influenced their approach.“Everyone who works in film music reveres John Williams, and that score is kind of a gem of film music. So to be asked to explore the DNA of that theme was a privilege, but definitely a humbling privilege. You are confronted with this truly iconic theme… But at the same time, there still felt like there was a lot to explore within the confines of that theme… I remember, I was having a meeting with James [Gunn] and I said, the part of the John Williams theme that always really touched me is the end… There's something about it that's hopeful. Really, really hopeful. And I started playing around with it with some different chords, and I could tell James was getting sort of moved by it. It felt like we were discovering something and finding something new that fit his Clark Kent and his Superman, as well.”—David Fleming, Composer, “Superman”Be sure to check out “Superman,” now playing in theaters and Dolby Cinemas®, in Dolby Vision® and Dolby Atmos®.Please subscribe to Dolby Creator Talks wherever you get your podcasts.You can also check out the video for this episode on YouTube.Learn more about the Dolby Creator Lab and check out Dolby.com.

@igrejakyrios - Igreja Evangélica Kyrios-Culto do dia 13.07.2025 no período da noite (18h)Salmo 19:12-14, Gálatas 3:13-14, Atos 3:25 e Filipenses 1:6Nesta mensagem, Pr. Adhemar nos convida a olhar com sinceridade para dentro de nós. Antes de tentar consertar o outro ou ajustar as falhas da família, somos desafiados a encarar o espelho e permitir que Deus trate primeiro o nosso coração, porque a mudança de verdade começa em nós.A partir dos textos somos lembrados de verdades simples, mas profundas: quem é amado, ama.

Christa Worthington, a former fashion journalist and single mother who lived in Truro, a town on northern Cape Cod, was murdered in January 2002. Three years later, DNA evidence matched a surprising suspect, a local sanitation worker.Join Mike and Gibby as they discuss Christopher McCowen. McCowen told several different stories but was linked to the murder through DNA, and a jury thought the evidence proved his guilt. However, a recently discovered article of clothing may point to another person whom Chris said he was with that night. The testing has yet to be completed.You can help support the show at patreon.com/truecrimeallthetimeVisit the show's website at truecrimeallthetime.com for contact, merchandise, and donation informationAn Emash Digital productionSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Take the WEIRD DARKNESS LISTENER SURVEY and help mold the future of the podcast! https://weirddarkness.com/surveyIn 1951 an entire French town suddenly believed they were werewolves — but CIA documents suggest the real monster might have been scientists conducting a top-secret mind control experiment that went horribly wrong.Join the DARKNESS SYNDICATE: https://weirddarkness.com/syndicateIN THIS EPISODE: In 1856, two young children – Joseph and George Cox – disappeared in the Allegheny Mountains. The story is tragic… and it also has a bizarre ending. (Lost Children of the Alleghenies) *** Is he an elf? A troll? Not only is it hard to classify Latin America's El Duende – but it's even difficult to know if he's good, evil, or just a mischievous menace! (Duende The Menace) *** Bachelor's Grove Cemetery just outside of Chicago is a mystery. No one knows exactly how it got its name; no one is sure when the first burial there took place or why it has since been abandoned; there is no explanation for the strange lights that are often seen there, or the ghostly lady, or the phantom horse and rider. (Bachelor's Grove Cemetery) *** A man is found in a graveyard with a bullet to his skull, barely alive. He died later – but what exactly happened to him is a bit of a mystery. Our guess though is that it had something to do with him being a grave robber. (A Grave Robber's Fate) *** Forensics has come a long way over the years, making it harder and harder for criminals to get away with crimes – particularly brutal crimes where DNA is usually left behind because of a struggle or physical assault. But despite technological advancements, there are still those cases that remain unsolved – and we'll look at a few murders of women whose cases still can't be closed. (Unsolved Female Murders) *** How's the saying go… “hell hath no fury like a woman scorned?” That's good advice for the living – but probably even more apropos when dealing with female ghosts! (Famous Female Phantoms) *** Imagine you're in a small town and suddenly you begin seeing people around you starting to change into beastly creatures. They begin attacking those around them, ripping them apart, eating like wild animals. Then suddenly you begin the transformation yourself… you are becoming a werewolf. But you were never bitten by a monster, nor were the townsfolk. How could this be happening? This actually happened in a small town in France… and one of the theories as to how it happened will not only surprise you, but have you wondering if it will happen to you someday.

It's rare for 60 MINUTES to follow a story for 16 years, but correspondent Lesley Stahl reports on Jennifer Thompson, a rape victim who learned years after her attack that an innocent man had been sent to prison, a story Stahl covered in 2009. In this era of DNA exonerations, Thompson has come to believe that crime victims are forgotten, and even blamed, when the justice system gets it wrong. She has created Healing Justice, an organization that brings together the wrongfully convicted, crime victims and family members for multi-day intensive retreats. She invites 60 MINUTES to come along as they share their stories and move together on a path of healing. Correspondent Bill Whitaker cruises through Espanola, N.M., a town that's a hub of lowrider culture: vintage American automobiles with vibrant paint jobs and street-scraping suspensions. He meets a community of “cruisers” who are turning their hobby's bad-boy reputation on its head, paving a new route as activists and community servants, and claiming a place as custodians of Hispanic culture and champions of fine art.

For decades, evolutionary biologists considered non-coding regions of DNA as evolutionary junk, a paradigm that long dissuaded researchers from studying these little-understood portions of the genome. But a series of discoveries starting in 2008 has forced a major change in thinking about so-called "junk" DNA. Many examples of function have since been identified for the non-coding regions of DNA, and more are being uncovered each year. On this ID The Future, Dr. Casey Luskin reports on a pair of American biologists who were recently awarded the Nobel Prize for their discovery of function in what was previously considered junk DNA.

Countless fans of FSOTD flood our DMs and comment sections demanding the return of “the fire,” “real OGs,” “the gas,” and/or classic cultivars from the 90s-2000s, which are the building blocks of the exotics we know today. In response to this demand, we brought on two absolute legends in terms of genetic legacy, preservation, and global recognition for the work they've made and continue to make to answer some of these questions.Blackleaf is joined in our LA studio by John of Green Bodhi, and once again, by Don and Aaron of DNA Genetics to discuss everything surrounding classic cultivars that many have assumed gone forever, why purple herb wasn't and still isn't fire, how Kenji cracked the original seeds on what would become “Pre-98 Bubba,” what goes into tissue culture and how Phylos is stacking up the world's genetic library, and so many more stories surrounding legendary cuts such as the lore surrounding DNA's Banana OG crosses which have literally changed the hash game.Legacy comes up a lot in this podcast, and how you go about achieving it. How do you reach a point where your Strawberry Banana is being used as the base for someone's pheno hunt intended for washing? You'll hear Don of DNA Genetics throw around a lot of strong claims during this pod, such as the time to create a true legacy brand being behind us, as well as how hype smokers that only blow Runtz or LCG crosses don't even know what they want these days.Another prevalent topic throughout this episode is the sheer HEAT of John aka Green Bodhi's herb on the table, none of which you'll note is purple, how he grows it in Oregon, and his laundry list of “OG” and/or questionable growing techniques that seem to bring him 100% germination and time-honored yields. His background story is one that you definitely can't miss, not only in terms of free game, but also sheer intrigue and entertainment. Throughout the episode, you'll see Blackleaf flash around the extremely limited, yet recent, seed collab between Green Bodhi and DNA Genetics that they both claim you can get from them simply by hitting the DMs. The future is looking bright when you consider that two world-renowned heavyweights of legacy breeding and cultivation are currently joining forces to ensure the classics stay around and that someone keeps breeding new innovations on the iconic cuts that time might soon forget. One thing's for sure, by the end of this episode, you'll be fiending for Dog Walker, Chem, Skunk, Kush, Afghani, and Haze crosses like back in the day. Keep your eyes and ears peeled for when John brings up his Tenzen cut, and you won't be sorry.Subscribe to our channel and the FSOTD.com site to keep up with other key players and enjoy conversations with trailblazers from the culture you can't find anywhere else.

In this searing broadcast, the hosts expose the harrowing reality behind recent immigration raids in California, revealing how unaccompanied minors are trafficked by cartels, indebted into slavery, and forced to work in dangerous conditions—including illegal pot farms allegedly protected by Democrat politicians. Drawing on reports from DHS, Fox News, and firsthand accounts, they detail how DNA testing was suspended to conceal crimes, how campaign donations flowed from exploitative growers, and how known sex offenders were employed alongside trafficked children. The segment argues that a corrupt alliance between cartels and political leaders fuels modern-day slavery, human rights abuses, and systemic child exploitation in America.
Can you live forever?This is a question human beings have asked since the dawn of time. From the ancient pharaohs, who buried their wives, families, and treasures with them in the hope of securing eternity, to today's cryogenic freezing of DNA and other strange attempts to discover the fountain of youth—people have tried everything imaginable to outsmart mortality.Look around us: the booming pharmaceutical industry, Botox, plastic surgery—all driven by the desire to slow down, mask, or even reverse the aging process. We spend fortunes trying to look young, to feel young, to hold back the inevitable. But despite all this, has anyone truly figured out how to conquer death, the ultimate end of mortal life?And yet, beneath all these efforts lies a deeper longing. Every one of us yearns to make an impact, to leave a lasting, eternal mark on this universe. We don't just want to exist—we want to matter forever.Is that really possible? Is there a path to a life that transcends time?Please join Rabbi Simon Jacobson for this essential and timely conversation that touches each of us at our core. Together, we'll uncover the spiritual principles that reveal the path to true immortality.
Was "junk DNA" ever really junk—or did science just need to catch up with design? In this episode of All Rise, we talk to Dr. Fazale Rana (biochemist and President & CEO at Reasons to Believe) to dive into one of the most groundbreaking scientific reversals in recent history: the 2024 Nobel Prize awarded for discoveries showing that so-called “junk DNA” is functional and essential. For decades, large portions of the human genome were written off as useless leftovers of evolution. But was that ever good science—or just bad theology in disguise? Fuz Rana walks us through the history of this idea, why many Christian scientists and intelligent design theorists questioned it from the beginning, and how new discoveries are forcing a complete rethinking of what our DNA says about purpose, design, and even God. Is this the death of the “junk DNA” myth? What does it mean for Darwinian evolution? And how should Christians respond to this scientific turning point? Whether you're a skeptic, a believer, or just curious about what your genes are really saying, this conversation will give you a fresh look at the intersection of science, faith, and design.

If you've had early miscarriage before 12 weeks, especially more than once, and been told everything looks “normal,” or you've been diagnosed with low AMH, high FSH, this episode is for you. We're going to talk about what's often overlooked in early term pregnancy loss: gut health, immune dysfunction, clotting disorders, nutrient deficiencies, and hormone imbalance from a conventional and functional medicine perspective. In this episode, you'll learn: Why progesterone, thyroid function and adrenal health are key to early pregnancy The role of gut dysbiosis, inflammation, and food sensitivities in recurrent miscarriage What comprehensive bloodwork reveals - including homocysteine, hsCRP, ANA, and more Functional strategies to support detoxification, reduce stress, and improve implantation How immune triggers and vaginal microbiome imbalances increase miscarriage risk While the focus of this episode is on the female side of fertility it's not to be overlooked to look at the male partner's health. Poor sperm quality, oxidative stress, gut infections, and DNA fragmentation can all contribute to miscarriage, poor embryo development,t and implantation failure. Just as we look at gut health, inflammation, and functional bloodwork in women,n we need to apply this lens to the male partner. If you haven't looked at semen analysis or functional testing for men, be sure to check out our Male Factor Fertility episode for strategies to optimize sperm health and improve pregnancy outcomes. How To Address Men's Reproductive Health (It's a myth sperm doesn't decline with age!) - https://fabfertile.com/blogs/podcasts/how-to-address-mens-reproductive-health-it-s-a-myth-sperm-doesnt-decline-with-age?_pos=1&_sid=689d505e3&_ss=r This episode is for you if: You have experienced a miscarriage before 12–14 weeks of pregnancy and want to understand what might be behind it. You're seeking both conventional and functional insights to support healing and improve your chances in future pregnancies. You want actionable lifestyle, diet, and testing strategies to help your body prepare for a healthy pregnancy.

Januari 2023. Det är en dag som vilken annan i New York, USA. Bland alla som rör sig på gatorna finns en 59-årig tvåbarnspappa. Han verkar precis ha ätit lunch, för i handen håller han en pizzakartong med några kanter kvar. Nonchalant slänger han kartongen i en soptunna — utan att ana att polisen övervakar honom. Snabbt är utredarna framme och plockar upp kartongen. Så har de DNA på mannen de misstänker är en seriemördare som mördat och dumpat flera kvinnor på Long Island. Det är det här ögonblicket som kommer att förändra allt — och avslöja det mörker mannen burit på i över 30 år.Det här är del 2 om seriemördaren på Long Island. Äntligen ska vi få veta vem han är — det där monstret som fått härja i så många år.Fall: Rex Heuermann[REKLAM] Länk Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/spoktimmenKällor: https://www.spoktimmen.se/spoksommar2025-3KontaktInstagram: @spoktimmen@linnek@jennyborg91 Facebook: Spöktimmen Mail: spoktimmenpodcast@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.
