We're celebrating something BIG today… Episode 180 of Organizing with Ease! When I first started this podcast, it was co-hosted — just two women, two mics, and a lot of coffee. Then life shifted, and I had to decide: stop or keep going solo. And I chose to keep going, little by little. Week after week, step by step, here we are — 180 episodes later. And that's exactly what this milestone episode is all about: how to keep making progress when life feels full. Because let's be honest — October is busy. School, sports, deadlines, and holidays creeping closer. And the temptation is to say, “I'll wait for the perfect time.” But as research, real-life stories, and even some funny sayings remind us — progress doesn't come from giant leaps. It comes from small, consistent steps. In this episode, you'll learn: Why small, daily actions matter more than rare, giant efforts. What the Harvard Business Review and Stanford research say about the power of “little by little.” Why the Mayo Clinic believes daily low-intensity actions reduce stress better than bursts of effort. Client stories about garages, photos, and yes… even junk drawers, all transformed in just minutes a day. The quotes that keep me grounded, like: “A year from now, you'll wish you had started today.” – Karen Lamb “Great things are not done by impulse, but by a series of small things brought together.” – Vincent Van Gogh “Autumn shows us how beautiful it is to let things go.” – Unknown By the end of this episode, you'll be ready to identify one area in your home or life to tackle in just 10 minutes a day — and you'll see how powerful that can be. ✨ Your October Challenge Calendar To make this fun and doable, I've created a free October Challenge Calendar you can download right now.

Episode 80: Lucky By Design – Show NotesIs luck really just random, or can we engineer it? In this episode, we explore how “luck” is often the result of preparation, pattern recognition, and a deep understanding of hidden systems that shape opportunity. Drawing from the unlikely success story of Gary Dahl's Pet Rock and the groundbreaking research of Wharton economist Judd Kessler and his new book Lucky By Design, we dig into the ways luck is built, not found.Judd Kessler introduces his framework of “hidden markets,” where things like tickets, jobs, and creative opportunities aren't always allocated by price or obvious mechanisms. Instead, they're shaped by invisible rules that govern access and advantage. We discuss the “three E's”—efficiency, equity, and ease—as the building blocks of these markets, and examine real strategies to decode the signals and systems at play.Along the way, we unpack how showing up prepared, making it easy for others to work with us, and understanding the actual rules of the game can help leaders and creative professionals tilt the odds in their favor. We also take on the coming wave of AI-driven speed and automation, and ask what it means for authentic signaling in a world where bots are getting faster and smarter.Five Key Learnings from the Episode:Luck favors the prepared. What looks like serendipity is often the outgrowth of discipline, awareness, and the willingness to build a “door” for opportunity to knock on.Hidden markets have hidden rules. Whether it's a ticket lottery or landing a client, outcomes are shaped by underlying systems—not just price or “fairness.” Learn the rules, and you can play the game more strategically.The three E's—Efficiency, Equity, and Ease—are metrics for opportunity. Whether trying to get noticed, land a deal, or hire the right people, balancing these three helps you become the option others choose.Reducing friction creates value. In creative and business relationships, being easy to work with and removing obstacles can be a more powerful signal than raw talent alone.Signals matter more than ever in the age of AI. As automation makes it cheap and easy to fake enthusiasm or speed, genuine signals—like real relationships and proven follow-through—become even more vital.Get full interviews and bonus content for free!

What does it look like to go from feeling financially overwhelmed to fully owning your money story?In this episode of Money Files, I sit down with my client Clara, a hairstylist in Washington, D.C., who transformed the way she managed her finances. Before working together, Clara earned good money but constantly wondered, “Where is it all going?” Like many 1099 earners, her income fluctuated, and without a system, that led to stress, uncertainty, and missed opportunities.Together, we built a framework that gave her structure, clarity, and confidence. Clara learned how to separate her business and personal finances, plan for taxes, and create a simple system that helped her build savings and prepare for slower seasons. With her new mindset and money plan, she stopped stressing about her finances, bought her first home, and even planned an international trip, without panic or guilt.This conversation is about more than numbers; it's about what happens when you finally take ownership of your financial life.Listen in to learn:[02:15] How Clara realized she needed help managing her money[05:00] Why accountability and structure are key to financial success[08:25] How she stopped stressing over inconsistent income[11:40] How she prepared for slow business seasons with confidence[15:20] The mindset shift that helped her buy her first home[18:40] How she learned to fit her lifestyle into her budget instead of restricting it[21:45] Building confidence to earn more and plan for retirementTune into this episode of Money Files to hear how Clara went from overwhelmed to empowered and how financial coaching helped her build a system that supports her goals and her peace of mind.Get full show notes and the episode transcript: https://wealthovernow.com/financial-predictability-how-clara-created-financial-ease-as-a-hairstylist/Links mentioned in this episode…Set up a call | Financial Coach Washington, DC | Wealth Over NowDownload my FREE spending plan

Internal medicine physician Sally Daganzo discusses her article "How functional medicine fills the gaps left by conventional care." Sally explains how a systems-based, evidence-informed approach can uncover root causes of complex conditions like fatigue, brain fog, anxiety, digestive issues, and eating disorders, especially when standard lab tests and specialist visits fail to provide answers. She highlights how functional medicine complements conventional care by considering factors such as nutrition, sleep, inflammation, microbiome health, and environmental stressors. Listeners will gain practical insights into how functional medicine reconnects doctors with clinical reasoning, expands treatment tools, and helps patients find healing when traditional approaches leave them feeling dismissed or "treatment-resistant."

Anesthesiologist and clinical mental health counselor Maire Daugharty discusses her article "How therapy helps uncover hidden patterns." Maire explains how psychotherapy leverages the brain's pattern-seeking nature to reveal implicit beliefs formed in early life, often outside conscious awareness. She describes how therapy provides a unique relational space for exploring assumptions, processing emotions, and reframing expectations—leading to profound shifts in self-reliance, resilience, and meaning-making. Drawing on depth psychology and Erik Erikson's stages of psychosocial growth, Maire illustrates how uncovering hidden narratives can transform relationships, ease life transitions, and help individuals face aging and mortality with integrity. Listeners will learn how therapy can dismantle limiting beliefs, foster autonomy, and cultivate deeper well-being across the lifespan. Our presenting sponsor is Microsoft Dragon Copilot.

The Leadership Advantage No One's Talking About Your mornings start with good intentions, but then, it's back-to-back meetings, lunch at your desk answering emails, fires to put out. You're busy all day, but you're not actually in flow or building momentum. By evening, you're exhausted, and the creative work that really matters is still waiting for you. But by then, your brain is already completely fried. If you think this is just part of the job, think again. It's actually what happens when you're working against how your brain is naturally wired to function. For so many high-achieving leaders, the challenge isn't a lack of skill or drive — it's the invisible misalignment between how you're built to thrive & how you're actually working and living. In this episode of Impact with Ease, Blake Schofield explores what distinguishes transformational leaders in a world speeding toward automation/AI. Many of today's best leaders are secretly running on empty — not because they lack talent or discipline, but because they're leading against how humans are actually wired to thrive. You'll learn a fresh approach that goes beyond systems and tools, and instead focuses on aligning your inner wiring, beliefs, and environment — so you lead with ease, energy, and creativity. Whether you're a C-suite executive, leader, or individual high performer, this conversation will shift how you see burnout, leadership development, and the future of work. Episode Highlights Why Burnout Is Really About Misalignment [02:30] - Why leaders don't burn out from doing too much [03:15] - The three domains of performance: wiring, beliefs, environment [04:00] - How misalignment steals energy, clarity & creativity Your Internal Operating System [05:15] - How most leaders work against their natural strengths [06:30] - Understanding conation & your unique method of operation [08:00] - Real example: How Blake's wiring as an innovator shaped her leadership style The Subconscious Rules Running the Show [11:30] - How subconscious beliefs undermine your best efforts [12:45] - Why high achievers equate busyness with worth [13:30] - Client story: Michelle's transformation from perfectionism to confidence Environment — When Systems Sabotage Success [15:00] - Why the wrong environment drains you, even when you "know better" [16:15] - How to optimize human performance through alignment [17:00] - The ripple effect: team dynamics & organizational impact Powerful Quotes "Burnout is not about working too hard or too long. It's a chronic misalignment between how you're wired to thrive and how you're actually leading and living." —Blake Schofield "I went from going through the motions and feeling invisible to becoming the kind of leader I've always aspired to be. This program helped me reconnect to the passion I have for business and leaders." —Robin, client "I wish I'd met you 20 years ago. What you have done for me personally outweighs any career or financial gain I could have gotten through this program. I came in thinking the career was a holy grail and you were going to fix my career. But really you fixed me." —Michelle, C-suite leader Resources Mentioned Kathy Kolbe > http://www.kolbe.com/aboutUs/kathy-kolbe.cfm Conation > http://www.kolbe.com/theKolbeConcept/what-is-conation.cfm Drained at the end of the day & want more presence in your life?

Clinical psychologist Annia Raja discusses her article "Why more physicians are quietly starting therapy." Annia explains how growing numbers of physicians are turning to therapy—not because they are failing, but because they are recognizing they cannot carry the weight of medicine alone. She outlines cultural shifts that are breaking down the "invincible doctor" myth, from generational openness to the impact of the pandemic, and highlights what doctors are really seeking in therapy: depth, safety, and understanding. Annia also emphasizes why quiet participation still matters, how therapy can be an investment in career longevity, and how these changes benefit both physicians and patients. Listeners will take away insights into how therapy is reshaping medical culture and why healing the healers is essential for the future of care. Our presenting sponsor is Microsoft Dragon Copilot.

Weighted blankets, which are much heavier than regular blankets, deliver deep, steady pressure that helps calm the nervous system and makes it easier for you to relax and fall asleep A study in China found that adults with diagnosed insomnia who used weighted blankets slept longer, fell asleep faster, and woke up less during the night compared to those using regular blankets Research on psychiatric patients showed that weighted blankets not only improved insomnia but also reduced daytime fatigue, anxiety, and depression, giving people more energy and better functioning during the day Real-world hospital studies confirmed that weighted blankets are safe for people under significant stress, with most participants reporting they felt calmer almost immediately after use While results vary, consistent use of weighted blankets offers a drug-free option to improve both nighttime rest and daytime well-being, especially if you struggle with severe sleep problems or stress
Physical therapist and physician advocate Kim Downey, mental health counselor Nikolai Blinow, and family physician and physician coach Tonya Caylor discuss their article "Focusing on well-being versus wellness: What it means for physicians (and their patients)." Together, Kim, Nikolai, and Tonya examine why the language of "wellness" often feels performative and unattainable, while "well-being" reflects a dynamic, values-based, and relational practice that supports both physicians and patients. They highlight how well-being fosters flexibility, belonging, and system-level change, while empowering individual clinicians to reconnect with purpose and presence. Listeners will gain insights into how embracing well-being can transform physician culture, reduce burnout, and model healthier approaches to care.

The video discusses the concept of User Generated Content (UGC) and how it presents an opportunity for everyday people to earn money by creating simple content for brands.

Instead, it's about creating content that brands can use to showcase their products through real people. * Ease of Entry: The speaker reassures viewers that creating UGC is simple and can be done with basic equipment like a smartphone. The content doesn't need to be posted on personal social media; it's provided directly to the brands. * Monetization Potential: The video outlines how individuals can earn money by participating in UGC, with the potential to earn around $1,000 within the first 30 to 60 days. The speaker shares their own experience of making $1,000 in the first two weeks, though they acknowledge having more time and a strong work ethic compared to others. * Encouragement for Beginners: The video encourages viewers to start creating content, highlighting that growth and improvement come with practice.

Orthopedic surgeon Michael Day discusses his article "Why it's time for doctors to become performance coaches." Michael explains why public trust in U.S. health care is declining and how patients are increasingly turning to high performers and influencers outside medicine for health inspiration. He argues that physicians must expand their role beyond disease treatment to become performance coaches—providing accountability, context, and specialized knowledge to help patients pursue fitness, resilience, and longevity. Michael emphasizes the lessons learned from elite athletes, the power of exercise in preventing chronic disease, and the importance of patient ownership in a tech-enabled health future. Listeners will gain insights into how physicians can bridge the gap between treatment and performance while rebuilding trust with their patients. Our presenting sponsor is Microsoft Dragon Copilot.

What if your private practice could finally give you the money, freedom, and balance you've always wanted—without the endless hustle or burnout?That's exactly what today's guest, Ellie Richter, created for herself. Ellie is the owner of The Essential Teletherapist, and she's transformed her career from driving all over town for clients to running a thriving telepractice on her own terms.Ellie has been an SLP since 2010, working primarily as a bilingual therapist in nonprofits. In 2022, she decided to step away from traditional roles and test out private practice with just a handful of clients. By 2024, she went all in—rebranding, creating clear systems, and designing a practice that aligned with her values and family's needs.At first, Ellie took any client she could, driving around for home visits. But as a mom and primary parent, the stress of being on the road was unsustainable. Around the same time, health challenges within her family pushed her to rethink her income, schedule, and priorities.With support from the Start and later the Grow Your Private Practice Program, Ellie clarified her vision, set her rates, and built a plan that worked. She leaned into her expertise in bilingual therapy and school contracts, while also developing a new passion—helping other SLPs succeed at teletherapy. Within her first year of going all in, Ellie hit six figures, built contracts through word of mouth, and created a business that truly worked for her life.In this episode, Ellie shares how she specializes in bilingual evaluations, early intervention, and teletherapy. Through her practice, The Essential Teletherapist, she not only serves children and families but also trains other SLPs to deliver effective virtual services. And how she built her business around family life—choosing her hours, and creating systems for what she calls “maximal ease.” She continues to refine her practice so it's sustainable long term, both financially and personally.In this episode, we discuss:How Ellie transitioned from nonprofit work to launching her own practiceWhat it looks like to build a bilingual teletherapy and school contract modelThe mindset shifts she made to prioritize ease and balanceAnd why aligning her business with her family's needs has been the key to successEllie's story proves that you don't have to choose between being a present parent and building a successful career. With clarity, systems, and support, you can create a practice that works for you—and build it on your own terms.Want to create a private practice that gives you freedom, flexibility, and fulfillment—just like Ellie has?

Life & Listings: Balancing Real Estate, Scaling Your Future w/ Jennifer Staats
Have a listen to this episode of the Life and Listings podcast as Jennifer Staats breaks down how to plan and host yearly community or sphere-of-influence events without the stress. From seasonal gatherings like Easter egg hunts and holiday parties to practical and cost-effective ideas such as shredding days, supply drives, and safety workshops, you'll learn how to create repeatable systems, track ROI, and maximize engagement. Jennifer also shares a free downloadable playbook packed with templates and SOPs to help you run smooth, budget-friendly, and impactful events year after year. Don't miss this episode filled with actionable strategies to make your events more effective and rewarding. “After that event wraps up, I want you to pause and I want you to reflect on what worked and what didn't. So you can repeat that if it really worked. You can repeat these over and over again, and these events are going to become more effective, less costly, and you're going to get a higher return on investment.” Check out these highlights from the discussion: Plan for Repeatability – When hosting an event, design it with the intention of repeating it yearly. Systems, templates, and documentation make it easier, more cost-effective, and more impactful over time. Start Small with Anchor Events – Focus on one to four recurring anchor events each year, such as seasonal celebrations, family-oriented activities, or community-based gatherings, to build consistency and engagement. Engagement Over Expense – Choose events that allow genuine interaction (e.g., barbecues, outdoor movies, safety workshops, or pet contests) rather than focusing on large budgets. Track Budget and ROI – Always record expenses, attendance, and outcomes. Tracking allows you to evaluate success, cut costs in future years, and measure the return on investment. Use Checklists and SOPs – Create a standardized checklist and document your processes (e.g., vendors, supplies, logistics) to streamline event planning and avoid repetitive mistakes. Reflect and Optimize – After each event, assess what worked and what didn't. Apply these insights to refine future events, making them easier to run, more effective, and more rewarding.

Michael also highlights solutions, including increasing awareness of ADHD's diverse presentations, encouraging comprehensive assessments, and building supportive, neurodiversity-affirming environments.

Fault-finding is a typical — and unhelpful — way to bring our critical energy into relationships.In this episode of Wholehearted Loving, Georgianna and Steph explore the tension between seeing what's wrong and allowing what's right. Georgianna shares the moment she caught herself ready to correct her partner mid-kindness and realized her old habit of “quality control” was blocking closeness. Steph reflects on her childhood training to “help by fixing,” how she swung to the other extreme of never offering input, and what balance feels like now.Together they reveal how nitpicking acts as low-grade fight energy, how compassion turns critique into connection, and how letting people win with you makes relationships feel safe again — for both sides.Discover how:Awareness turns criticism into choice and trustNitpicking reveals unspoken fight energy ready to moveEase and connection grow when you practice seeing what's working"Like finding gold." – Alma W."The best therapy I've ever done for myself." – Sanjeev B.LIVE training & practice programs:wholeheartedloving.comGet our self-compassionate body-based toolkitEvery episode begins and ends with a body-based self-connection practice, so you can grow your capacity to be with all that life brings.

More than 1 billion people worldwide and 12% of Americans live with migraines, a disabling neurological condition that disrupts sleep, work, and daily life Melatonin does more than regulate sleep; it also shields your brain at a cellular level by neutralizing damaging free radicals and reducing inflammation linked to migraines Research shows melatonin reduces headache frequency by 51%, intensity by 53%, and duration by 46%, offering a powerful natural alternative to standard pharmaceutical drugs Adults with episodic migraines taking 3 mg of melatonin before bed experienced the strongest improvements, often cutting their migraine frequency by half or more Melatonin's safety profile is superior to common drugs like amitriptyline, with fewer and milder side effects, making it a well-tolerated option for migraine prevention
What do you really want the second half of your life to look like? Being a doormat for others, then resenting it? Saying yes, when you really mean no? Doing more tasks or more work, taking responsibility for everything, and feeling overwhelmed in your life? This can be how so many of us in midlife feel, but I'm here to tell you there IS another way. In this episode, I sit down with expert Beatriz Albina to talk about a challenge so many women face but can't always name—patterns of overgiving, perfectionism, and the ultimate people-pleasing trap. Beatriz introduces the concept of emotional outsourcing and how it quietly drives these behaviors, leaving us feeling stuck and drained. Together, we discuss how reframing your mindset is a powerful tool for reclaiming your emotional well-being. Plus, Beatriz gives us a sneak peek into her brand-new book, End Emotional Outsourcing—a guide to finding freedom, balance, and true self-connection. Tune in here to reignite joy in your life, and find the inner peace you've been craving for years! Beatriz Albina Beatriz (Béa) Albina, NP, MPH, SEP (she/her) is a UCSF-trained Family Nurse Practitioner, Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, Master Certified Somatic Life Coach, and author of the book "End Emotional Outsourcing: a Guide to Overcoming Codependent, Perfectionist and People Pleasing Habits". She's dedicated to helping people socialized as women reconnect with their bodies, regulate their nervous systems, and rewire their minds to break free from codependency, perfectionism, and people-pleasing. Béa hosts the Feminist Wellness Podcast, and holds a Master's degree in Public Health from Boston University School of Public Health and a BA in Latin American Studies from Oberlin College. IN THIS EPISODE What is emotional outsourcing, and how can it impact women? Getting back to the basics for our emotional needs How our emotions lie in our nervous system– not just our minds Calming techniques you can do in 5 seconds, anytime, anywhere Detaching from labels like ‘co-dependent' and ‘perfectionist' How to stay regulated while also setting boundaries Why reframing your mindset is so important for healing All about Beatriz's book: End Emotional Outsourcing QUOTES “This is what happens when we get activated or triggered in our nervous system. When we start being mean to ourselves, when we ignore our impulses, when we project, when we take things personally, when we get offended, all these things– our nervous system is in a different time and place.” “That's the self-worth work. Saying, ‘I trust myself, I believe in myself, and so I know that this isn't a problem.' And that's that. Not allowing any other thoughts to enter your beautiful mind space, your world, your body. It's really vital work.” “What our children and our partners, and our friends and our communities and ourselves want and need from us the most, most, most, is presence.

I invited Michael Reitblat, CEO and founder of Forter, to unpack a reality many retailers are living with every day. Fraud is no longer a side issue. It shapes conversion rates, customer loyalty, and the bottom line. Michael argues that if you remove the fear of fraud, you unlock growth. That sounds bold, but his lens is practical. Replace guesswork with instant, consistent decisions and you improve both security and the checkout experience. Here's the thing. False declines feel like fraud in disguise. When good customers get blocked, they do not return. Michael explains how Forter uses real-time signals to say yes or no within the transaction, without adding friction. The promise is simple. If a buyer is genuine, let them through. If it is fraud, stop it and cover the chargeback. It is a clean model that puts accountability on the platform, not the merchant. We also talk about what happens when AI agents start buying on our behalf. If software is placing orders, refunding items, or filing disputes, identity and intent become fluid. Michael walks through how trust platforms need to reason about behavior across accounts, devices, and sessions. The goal is confidence at the moment of purchase without slowing anyone down. Michael shares how Forter's scope has expanded from blocking bad actors to enabling smart, business-wide decisions about customers. That means recognizing loyal buyers even if they shop across regions and brands, and spotting synthetic identities that mimic human patterns. It also means measuring success by approvals and lifetime value, not only by stopped attacks. Let me explain why this matters. Retailers are caught between two pains. Ease up and you invite chargebacks. Tighten controls and you lose revenue from good customers. Michael's point is that trust should be a growth lever. If the system is confident, the checkout stays smooth on web and mobile. If the system is unsure, it can ask for the least painful extra step rather than send a blanket decline. We close with practical guidance for leaders. Treat trust as a product. Give teams shared visibility into decisions. Align incentives so fraud, payments, product, and marketing are working from the same truth. Michael's vision is a world where anyone can transact with ease because fraud has been priced out of the experience. That is a conversation worth having, and one retailers can act on today.

It's an indicator for you to know what the next step is kind of like when our seatbelt buckle beeps in the car, it's an indicator to put our seatbelt on ⁓ or we get the indicator from the gas light. It's an indicator to go and fill up our car with gas. Same thing when we're practices like it's plateaued or it's stuck. It's just like Cool, let's diagnose, let's create a framework.

So just make sure life super, super easy. Ease is one of our core values and trying to make your life easy is what we're obsessed about. So today when we're going to, a lot of times I see this in like a 1 million, a 1.5, a 2 million practice where they're just like, gosh, I feel like I've just like hit my level and I don't know how to grow beyond it. It's kind of like my hair. My hair grows to a certain length and it won't grow beyond that. Like I can cut it shorter. but it just grows and it has never once grown beyond that. It's like, I don't know how to get my hair to grow past this level. Well, some practices feel like stuck hair, ⁓ but I just want to help give you this framework of three simple steps to help you diagnose it and then figure out what the next step is. So number one is to diagnose your true ceiling. And ⁓ this is where we're going to figure out like what the true cap rate is. Now, why we'll put this with an asterisk though, because a lot of offices think they've tapped out capped out. but maybe they're just so used to sitting in there or they don't know how to have an eye for it. I went into a practice once upon a time. They had four ops and they're like, Kiera, there's nowhere else we could ever fit an operatory in here. So we're just gonna build out, we're building a building across the street. Well, within about 15 minutes, I was able to find another operatory. They added that operatory. They were able to add 200,000 to their practice just that year. just by adding that one operatory in place. And they were like, well, we wish we would have met you like even a few months ago before we started building this huge, expensive building. I have another client where they got huge design plans out to like expand the building. It's a huge, huge expansion. They sent me a video of their downstairs and I was like, gosh, we could add like six ops down here with less effort, less reno. ⁓ And so I think also before you like truly say you pick capacity. maybe getting a second set of eyes on it or a third set of eyes to see is there any hidden potential in here because we're looking at chairs, ops, providers, and hygiene days. That's going to truly be capacity of what can we do. Now again, getting creative because could we add maybe an hour in the morning? Have we maxed out all five days in the office? A lot of times people tell me we're maxed and I'm like, but you're not even working five days. That doesn't mean you have to work five days, but if you're practicing your building sitting empty, that space that we could actually grow that isn't the true ceiling. So if we are not maxing out all five days, if we're not maxing out ⁓ all the operatories or all the space that we've got, you truly have not hit your ceiling. You might just not want to do the things that are capable for you. So looking at that, could I add more chairs? Could I add more operatories? What about more providers? What about more hygiene days? What about more hygiene hours? Is there space to expand any of that? Before we truly go to expand, these might be some areas that might be able to help you get past this plateau of some other areas. Also, let's look at our leadership. ⁓ Is our owner acting as a manager and not a CEO? Are they managing the day to day? ⁓ Are they involved in all the meetings or are they truly as a CEO? And our office manager is acting as the manager within the practice. So looking for that because sometimes just freeing that owner doctor up to be a CEO actually can expand your practice very quickly with minimal effort. You actually can have all that in place and there's very little effort that you actually have to do because now the owner is able to look at things It's like, give me a day of nothing and I will create so many possibilities. And so getting that owner out of the manager seat and into the true CEO seat, if that's the right seat for them, can also help. And then let's look to see like, what are our gaps? are there scheduling apps gaps? Do we have block scheduling in place? Can we maximize our schedule even more? What about our case acceptance, our AR? ⁓ What are some of the other areas of bottlenecks within our practice that maybe if we look to see changing them, like I've added hundreds of thousands. including millions to a practice just by doing a different scheduling tactic, looking at the flow of the practice, just changing up the flow with pediatric practices, looking to see where do we put our ops versus our, our profis. You can actually readjust that whole schedule and actually squeeze out more juice in your practice, giving a better patient experience with little to no effort, just reworking how we're doing things. So I really, really, really love this. Like there's a practice. that cure were totally maxed out. Like we don't know what to do and should we like expand our practice? They already have the huge practice and looking at it, I was like, but we're only here four days. So why don't we even consider that fifth day and or evening hours a couple of days? Again, that does not mean your current team. We could hire other team members for this, but like let's just run some numbers and see just adding that extra day, those lower, those evening hours. We were able to add over 550,000 to a practice just by doing that one simple thing. no extra cost to the building. We were able to bring in two team members for that. Everything ran super easy. So I think I would go and look to see like in your practice when you're thinking I've plateaued, run a quick audit and say, where are we losing time? Where are we losing money? Or where are we losing energy? Like what are the true bottlenecks in our practice? And this is where like a CEO has to have that visionary time. Because if we ran a 60 minute audit on your office, Could we quickly find those? When I walk into an office or our consultants walk into an office, that's what we're doing. We're auditing your practice. We're looking for these bottlenecks. So even if you can't figure out that, maybe it is time to consider bringing a consultant on site to just look at your practice to see. And we can do this virtually or in person. In person is obviously a little bit easier, but virtually too. Take videos and we can diagnose that space real quickly for you just to see what are maybe some of the options that we could do for you. So then when I look at this, SIP 2 is going to be like, reworking all of your systems for scale. ⁓ It's like the saying is like, what got you here is not going to get you to where you need to go. So we've got to rework those. And like there have been practices that I walked in and they're actually too systematized. They're too in the weeds to be able to grow and expand it. And so for that, like, what do we need to upgrade? So like I said, for block scheduling or for handoffs or for our morning huddles or for accountability systems or reporting or KPI or tracking, like, ⁓ everybody doing a time audit to see what is on your schedule that should not be on your schedule that we could actually put into different people's spots. So often offices will tell me like, Kiera, we're so maxed. And I'm like, you're actually not maxed. Everybody's just overlapping. So we're like two or three people on the same task versus separating it out, delegating it out, getting everybody crystal clear. ⁓ That way everybody can see and can have clarity. And I don't necessarily do it by person, but by seat. So especially for an office, we've got chair one, chair two, chair three. What do each of these chairs, what are they responsible for? What are the numbers and the metrics that they're responsible to do? So really like separating it out, dividing it out, making sure our systems are very scalable. So think like, okay, if we're a five-op practice doing 1.5 million today, what would a $4 million business that's maybe an eight-op practice do? How would we have to change those systems and even starting to implement those systems now into your practice can exponentially help you go beyond this plateau space. So I really think like when you look at it, those simple changes like we're able to add 10,000, 20,000, 15,000 to a practice per month just by adjusting some of these systems, just by adjusting the KPIs, just by adjusting what people are doing because a lot of times smaller practices are more. Overlappy, I think is the best way to say it rather than the larger practices the larger practices do read a little bit leaner they have more ⁓ More clarity of who should be doing what because they have to and so really looking to see what do I need to do? And how can I optimize the systems? What what's outdated in our practice that maybe we could revamp refine? Do differently now on the flip side sometimes practices that are so large actually have so many old dated systems that they just keep bringing forward that they need to actually get rid of some of those dated systems and pick one or two systems to update. So like, are we so clunky in everything that we're tracking on our scorecard? Could we eliminate some of the things that we're tracking? So there's either, we need to track more or we need to track less. What is it and how can I actually update and rebuild our systems to be able to scale with ease? So that would be a quick thing to look at of like, what's outdated or what's to like, not like nuances. what areas, and again, these are hard things to see. So fair warning, you've never done this before. So you might not even realize something's dated. And there was a practice who was still using paper charts. And I walked in and I was like, I've worked with you for a year. You didn't bother to tell me you had paper charts. But for them being in the day to day, they didn't realize that that was dated. So sometimes for you, you do need a bird's eye perspective. You do need someone who has seen hundreds of offices of what should be happening or what could be happening in your organization. that maybe you're not even doing. So truly I am big on, yes, I am a consultant. So of course I have that. We do it within our company too. Bringing in people who are smarter than where we are. We know we've hit our ceiling and what we know how to update or what we think is outdated, we've already fixed. It might be time for you to also have that. And sometimes that's where the plateau happens is because... You've grown as far as you know how to grow. You don't know how to go to the next level. And I've been there. I'm in there in my company right now. Like we're getting ready to bring somebody in from large, large, large corporation to still keep our like our boutique feel, but allowing us to scale in ways that I don't even understand how to do. So truly like even myself, I do this for our company because I think it's so wise to see somebody else who can help me figure out like what's dated, what's not working to help us scale even more while maintaining the feel of. we are. Excuse me, step three. Step three is going to be setting a bold new vision. So ⁓ when we feel like we've plateaued, we gotta figure out like, where do we want to go? Where do we want to grow to? And for me, it's like defining what the next level looks like. So is that team profit schedule lifestyle? When we work with offices, we set a one, three, 10 year goal that helps have this bold new vision. And sometimes you might be in this, I was in this and at year, gosh, it was year seven. ⁓ I like kind of lost the vision and I was like, I don't really know if this is where I want to go. And so we've got to just like clear up the vision and figure out where are we going? What does that look like? Team members schedule, like how many hours is the CEO working? Things like that. And then getting the whole team bought into it. And this is something I really love about leadership teams is we, build the vision together. So owner, yes, like I need to know where you want to go. You set the lighthouse for us and then we build around it. And so then what we do is we then tie quarterly goals into it. We run off of traction, but really like, What I see happen so often is the owner doctor feels like they're just like dragging the boat along when they feel like they plateaued, but they don't have the whole team bought into it. And this is actually a question we ask offices when they're coming to work with us is it's your one through 10 year vision. Like how clear is that on a one to 10? And a lot of times you're like, well, I know where I want to go. And I'm like, great. Now does your team know where you want to go? And usually that's where it's fuzzy is the team has no clue. So the doctor really is like, just imagine like, this is how I visualize it. Like these huge chains and I'm holding them and they're like, pulling this boat and I'm like sluggishly like walking down the beach like trying to pull this boat along versus throw the chains in the boat. So it's not on my back anymore as the owner. I hop in the boat with my team as a team collectively. We know that we're headed to this island at this time. We've got the map. We've got the road map. We've got somebody guiding us if we need to well now like everybody's rowing together right like that's so much easier like even like if you're watching the video you saw my like it's like this like I don't know, hunched over, exhausted, like trying to pull this whole heavy boat versus like, we're all just rowing and I'm in my seat and I know what I need to row. And well, I guess rowing is not easy. It's much easier than trying to drag and force results. And so with that, a lot of times what I do is teams that do this, I have an office and they sent me a text and I'm like, yeah, remember when you were in our office and you helped us set the goal of hitting, I it was like 350,000 a month. They were like, we were barely producing like, 200 at that time. They're like, there's no way this is going to happen. Four months later, they were breaking 350. And like you went, that's 150,000 added to production. No extra days. Like all we did was we aligned the team to see where we needed to go. And what's crazy is when you get that alignment, well, now your system's become easier. Now the clarity is there. Everybody truly can figure out like where we're going and what our next level is because it's a collective group. and it's a collective growth and it's a collective mission and effort that we're all headed to. I don't come in and say, you guys should be here. I come in and say, all right, collectively as a team, this is where we are. This is what industry standards are for growth. What do we feel as a team? And now when I'm doing this, also, I don't break it down and say like, all right, you have to add 150,000 a month. Well, no, if you're working 20 days, like I'm literally pulling out my calculator, 150,000 divided by 20 days, that's 7,500 extra a day. Well, 7,500 in dentistry. is actually pretty easy to produce. And so what things could we do to get there? How could we have each department work on this? So now it becomes not 150,000. It's like, great. How do we add that 7,500? Why are we doing this? What's the purpose behind it? But getting that next level figured out really can help a practice get out of the plateau because now our sites are bigger. We know where we're headed. Then we can figure out our systems. Then we can figure out all the different pieces of like, what is my true ceiling? Am I really maxed out? You get more creative. So For this, yes, I did these steps this direction, but really I would reverse them if I was listening to this podcast. And step one is I would figure out what my vision is. What's my next level and where do I wanna go? Then I'd look at my systems and what are my systems doing that I need to either add, take away or improve to get me to this next level and then figure out like the ceiling and is my practice truly maxed out or based on my next level vision, what could I do within my practice currently? And I think, yes, it's always fun to go buy a new house or a new car, a new practice expanded out, but also cashflow wise and business wise and savvy business, if you can make it work where you currently are or just do a few small changes, is that worth it? And does that give it? For some people, they need to go build it. And the next level for them is to build something more dreamy, more fun. And that's like, what's going to ignite them. So everybody has to know what's going to be for you. But really, truly, I believe if you've got this great plan, you've got these pieces in play, it can help you get out of the plateau. It can help you figure out what your next level is. honest to goodness, a lot of times you do need somebody outside to help you if you're not great at seeing this. And that's okay. I am not good. My husband and walk in a lot of rental properties and real estate properties. And I'm like, I wish I could see the vision on houses like I see in dental practices. When I walk in, I can see what needs to happen. Our consultants can see what needs to happen quickly. Where do I need to the numbers? What do need to do from that? That's something so magical versus like in a house. I'm like, I don't know, I can't see where to move the walls. And some of you might be able to see in a house very quickly how to renovate it and how to change it. For me, that's not a talent I have. For you, a talent you might not have is being able to see how you can get beyond the plateau of your practice. Here are some tips for you. Hopefully you can take them on and try them out. But really, if you need help, reach out. This is what we do. This is what we do all day long. We've seen multiple practices. We've seen them from five ops. We've seen them up to literally have a practice of 25 ops. The difference between those two practices and the way they operate in the systems and what we do for the large practices versus what we do for the small practices is pretty similar. Actually, it's very similar of what we do. ⁓ It's just on a different scale and it's growing the smaller practices into the larger practices. So for you growth, truly, I want to remind you isn't luck. It's leadership that has systems and clarity of where to go and what the next step is in the next vision. So if you feel stuck, You're not failing. You might just need a new vision. You might just need a different perspective. You might need somebody to come in and help you see the gaps that you might not be able to see. And so truly I would love to help you. So reach out, Hello@TheDentalATeam.com. This is what we talk about on our practice assessment calls. We talk about where you are, the potential. There is a lot of free consulting on that for you, whether you work with us or not, just to give you what the next step is or what some of the blind spots are in your practice that maybe you didn't see because you're in a day in a day out. I do this for our company. And it's such a joy and an honor to do it for practices, to be able to help you from someone who's been there, done that and done it successfully over and over and over again. So let's do it for you. Reach out. Hello@TheDentalATeam.com. It's time for you to grow into the vision that you were meant to have. It's time for you to have fun with it.
