Is Practice Ownership worth the stress?  What's the most difficult thing you have to do as a practice owner?  Thinking about starting your own squat practice? How long does it really take before you see profit, and what sacrifices do you need to make along the way? In this episode, Jaz is joined by Dr. Shabnam Zai to unpack the real highs and lows of running a dental practice. From the loss of control as an associate, to the resilience needed during COVID, to the challenges of leadership and managing a team—nothing is sugar-coated here. They also tackle the big money question: when does a squat practice finally become profitable, and is it worth the grind in those first few years? If you've ever wondered whether practice ownership is for you—or why it might not be—this episode will give you the clarity (and reality check) you need. https://youtu.be/Tf1bgOWMA2A Watch PDP237 on Youtube Protrusive Dental Pearl: “DO NOT COMPARE YOUR WORK TO WHAT YOU SEE ON SOCIAL MEDIA” Most cases shown online are the very best results, done under perfect conditions by clinicians with thousands of hours of experience.  Instead of letting that trigger self-doubt or imposter syndrome, use it as inspiration: respect it, aspire toward it, and occasionally achieve it — but remember that real-world dentistry is different. Key Takeaways Engagement in work is crucial for job satisfaction. Time management is essential for balancing work and family. Marketing and patient relationships are vital for practice growth. Quality time with family is more important than quantity. Coaching can help surface potential and provide accountability. Delegation is essential for effective practice management. Vulnerability can arise unexpectedly in practice ownership. Managing people requires empathy and clear communication. Being an associate can be fulfilling and offers flexibility. It's important to have projects outside of dentistry. Balancing family life with practice ownership is challenging but possible. Financial planning is crucial before starting a practice. Understanding your priorities helps in making career decisions. Documenting staff performance is key to effective management. Continuous learning and self-improvement are vital for success.

We have to know, like this is my genius, this is what I can help people with. But this is also the thing that I need help from other people's zones of genius because I need to make sure that this is good and clean and clear in my business.” - Julie Solomon  “  One of the biggest ways that people are missing out on money is they're too conservative when it comes to deductions. Now you never wanna push the edge and be like, oh my entire life is a write off like you're definitely gonna get in trouble if you do that.

“What Is Starfleet?” The long-teased documentary by Umberto Ortegas has finally been released. “Starfleet presents themselves as our quadrant's shining example of duty, honor, peacekeeping,” says the little brother of Erica Ortegas, who flies the ship. “But what separates a federation from an empire? Both colonize. Both impose their laws and doctrines on others. Are they explorers as they claim? Or soldiers as they appear? They call their vessels starships. What distinguishes them from warships?” Filming a mission during which the Enterprise is ordered to transport cargo that turns out to be a sentient being that turns out to have been transformed into a weapon certainly begs answers to those questions. As viewers, we watch the findings of this young investigative reporter unfold and lead him down a path he may not have expected. In this episode of Saddle Up! hosts C Bryan Jones and Matthew Rushing continue our journey through Strange New Worlds with “What Is Starfleet?” We discuss the documentary concept, Beto's agenda, and pacing in short seasons as well as the big question (and whether the story answers it).

August 26, 2025: Anika Gardenhire, RN, Chief Digital and Transformation Officer at Ardent Health, joins Reid Stephan, VP and CIO at St. Luke's Health System, to discuss the complicated world of nursing. As healthcare faces workforce shortages and an aging population, the discussion examines whether current documentation requirements are actual regulations or simply historical inertia that's never been questioned. Can we redesign nursing documentation to capture both the measurable "science" and the intuitive "art" that experienced nurses bring to patient care? Anika envisions a future where technology amplifies rather than replaces the human elements that define exceptional nursing care.

Have you ever wondered how one writer could change French literature and politics at the same time? That's the story we tell in Émile Zola: The Life, Legacy, and Scandal of France's Most Influential Writer. In this episode of the Join Us in France Travel Podcast, host Annie Sargent sits down with Elyse Rivin to explore the extraordinary life of Émile Zola. Zola was not just a novelist. He was a social critic, a scandal-maker, and a public voice for justice. His Rougon-Macquart series, including the famous novel Germinal, revealed the lives of miners, shopkeepers, and workers in 19th-century France. His friendship with Paul Cézanne shaped his early years. His relationship with Jeanne Rozerot brought private scandal. And his article J'Accuse made him a hero during the Dreyfus Affair, even though it forced him into exile in England. Annie and Elyse take you through the highlights of an Émile Zola biography in plain language. You'll learn about his role in shaping the Naturalist movement, his courage to stand up against injustice, and why he rests today in the Panthéon in Paris alongside France's greatest figures. This episode isn't just about books. It's about history, politics, scandal, and courage. It's about how one man's words still echo in France today. If you're curious about French literature, Paris history, or the Dreyfus Affair, this episode is for you. You'll walk away with stories you can share and a deeper understanding of France's cultural heritage.

Send us a textHave you ever felt like your relationship was running on empty, like the emotional gas tank hit “E” and suddenly your partner said, “I need space”? In that moment, everything can feel terrifying. The silence. The distance. The questions you can't stop spinning in your head.But here's the truth: needing space isn't always a sign the relationship is over. More often, it's a survival response, the human need to regroup, refill, and reconnect with ourselves before we can reconnect with anyone else.In this episode of Love Shack Live, we're pulling back the curtain on what “space” really means in relationships. You'll learn:Why requests for space often happen long after the need first appearedHow ignoring our emotional capacity leads to collapse or acting outWhy coping behaviors during separation (from risky choices to pulling away) don't mean love is goneAnd most importantly: how to use this difficult pause as an opportunity for clarity and growthIf you're at a relationship crossroads, navigating conflict, distance, or a partner who says they need time apart, this conversation will help you see space in a whole new way.So here's the question: What if “I need space” isn't the end… but the invitation to a different beginning?Episode Links: They said they needed space. But the real reason isn't what you think.It's not about love fading, it's about missing skills.
