Rūpa Goswami says, "Just as young boys are naturally attracted to young girls, and young girls are naturally attracted to young boys"—if you unload a busload of teenagers in front of the Grand Canyon, they won't see the Grand Canyon because they're in samādhi. He said, "In the same way, may my mind be drawn to you." So when Prabhupāda said, "This is a feeling festival, the Ratha-yātrā," there is a story behind it, a love story. But it's THE love story; it's not any love story, it's THE love story. It's the ādi-rasa that gets perverted in this world as what's called āhlāda-tāpa-traya—the love affairs of this world that end in misery and strife and difficulty and complications. Of course, there are complications in the love story of the spiritual world, but they're all ānanda. And this Ratha-yātrā is so remarkable because what we have here is an apparently ordinary parade, but we're pulling the Supreme Personality of Godhead, and not just an image of God. And we say, "God is great, and we're all small and we're all servants," but there's this very specific story of Lord Kṛṣṇa meeting again the residents of Vṛndāvana, and the depth of their separation from him, which is never broken, because true love is never broken. Even Shakespeare says that. And that's all encapsulated within the Ratha-yātrā festival. So brilliant was Prabhupāda to bring it out to the world that both aspects are there: kevalānanda-kāṇḍa—the bliss of the chanting, the prasādam, the display of booths, and "Here's Kṛṣṇa consciousness, you'll get inner peace." But beyond that, there's the most esoteric of all stories that highly advanced paramahaṁsas relish again and again, and tell over and over again, which they go into the details of again and again, and relish it unlimitedly. So we're part of that legacy to bring Ratha-yātrā to the world, and along with the Ratha-yātrā, we may also distribute Bhagavad-gītā, Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, and Śrī Caitanya-caritāmṛta. For anyone who has such an intervention in his or her life by seeing the Ratha-yātrā and then receiving transcendental literature, what to speak of prasādam and the association of devotees, can then take to the path of devotional service. ------------------------------------------------------------ To connect with His Grace Vaiśeṣika Dāsa, please visit https://www.fanthespark.com/next-steps/ask-vaisesika-dasa/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Add to your wisdom literature collection: https://iskconsv.com/book-store/ https://www.bbtacademic.com/books/ https://thefourquestionsbook.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Join us live on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FanTheSpark/ Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sound-bhakti/id1132423868 For the latest videos, subscribe https://www.youtube.com/@FanTheSpark For the latest in SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/fan-the-spark ------------------------------------------------------------ #rathyatra #spiritualawakening #soul #spiritualexperience #spiritualpurposeoflife #spiritualgrowthlessons #secretsofspirituality #vaisesikaprabhu #vaisesikadasa #vaisesikaprabhulectures #spirituality #bhaktiyoga #krishna #spiritualpurposeoflife #krishnaspirituality #spiritualusachannel #whybhaktiisimportant #whyspiritualityisimportant #vaisesika #spiritualconnection #thepowerofspiritualstudy #selfrealization #spirituallectures #spiritualstudy #spiritualquestions #spiritualquestionsanswered #trendingspiritualtopics #fanthespark #spiritualpowerofmeditation #spiritualteachersonyoutube #spiritualhabits #spiritualclarity #bhagavadgita #srimadbhagavatam #spiritualbeings #kttvg #keepthetranscendentalvibrationgoing #spiritualpurpose

November 15, 1928. Grand Canyon National Park, Arizona. 29-year old Glen Hyde and his 22- year old wife, Bessie, decide to spend their honeymoon taking a rafting trip through the Grand Canyon down the rapids of the Colorado River and hope to attain a new speed record. Shortly after stopping at the home of a photographer named Emery Kolb, the Hydes vanish without a trace. Their empty boat is eventually discovered on the river nearly 150 miles away with all of the couple's supplies and possessions onboard, but Glen and Bessie are nowhere to be found. Over the next several decades, there would be a number of surprising twists, including a woman who claimed to be Bessie Hyde and the discovery of an unidentified male skeleton in Emery Kolb's boathouse. Did Glen and Bessie Hyde drown in the Colorado River, or was something a lot more sinister behind their disappearances? This week's episode of “The Path Went Chilly” chronicles the Grand Canyon's most famous mystery, which has remained unsolved for nearly a century.Support the Show: Patreon.com/julesandashleyPatreon.com/thetrailwentcoldAdditional Reading:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disappearance_of_Glen_and_Bessie_Hydehttp://charleyproject.org/case/glen-rollin-hydehttp://charleyproject.org/case/bessie-louise-haley-hyde“Sunk Without a Sound: The Tragic Colorado River Honeymoon of Glen and Bessie Hyde” by Brad Dimock

In recent years, there have been several deaths at the Grand Canyon as people get right to the edge trying to get a great picture. Sin is like a dangerous cliff. Pastor Johnny will warn you today not to play with standing on the edge. Sin leads to death. Don't see how close you can get to it. It's not worth it. Keep your distance.

David and Rachel discuss the Grand Canyon and its related deaths in 2023 (because we're still working through our script backlog!). Script by Nicole.

There's something about Beach Boys memories, fake concert tickets, and the scent of summer that brings out the best and rawest of Kevin Nash. This week, the conversation starts breezy and nostalgic—but like life, it takes some turns you don't quite expect. If you've ever watched your kid sleep the night before a trip or stared at an empty room filled with echoes, you'll feel this one. Kevin opens up in a way that few public figures ever do, especially around the birthday of his late son. It's a vulnerable look at fatherhood, regret, love, and the kind of memories that hit you in waves—sometimes warm, sometimes brutal. Sean is there with the steady hand, offering just the right balance of empathy and poking the bear. There's also a lot of beauty in this episode—talk of poetry, video games, and growing up with a brain wired a little differently. If you've ever loved someone on the spectrum, or been that someone, the stories Kevin tells might stick with you long after the episode ends. And because it's still Kliq This, don't worry—there's chatter about ‘80s sex symbols, dumb teenage mistakes, Florida weirdness, and why Kevin might be the last man alive who still defends Denise Richards with his whole chest. Whether you came for the wrestling takes, the father-son bond, or just want to know what the hell was really going on with R-Truth's t-shirt… this is one of those episodes that lingers. Press play.

Max Trescott welcomes aviation columnist, aerobatic instructor, and DPE Dr. Catherine Cavagnaro to explore smarter ways to plan cross-country flights. The conversation is inspired by Catherine's June 2025 AOPA article titled “The Benefits of Getting High,” which argues that pilots often default to lower cruising altitudes or direct GPS routes without considering efficiency or safety trade-offs.Catherine explains that pilots should dig into their aircraft's POH (Pilot's Operating Handbook) to find performance charts that highlight how altitude affects both time and fuel efficiency. For her Bonanza, she found that the highest true airspeed at 65% power occurred around 7,000 to 8,000 feet, but fuel efficiency kept improving all the way up to the service ceiling. Using a sample 650-NM trip, she shows that cruising at 12,000 feet—despite a longer climb—saved enough fuel to eliminate a fuel stop, making the total trip time shorter.   They discuss how terrain, restricted airspace, and drop zones make GPS direct routing risky or impractical, especially across mountain ranges. Catherine shares how Victor airways, often dismissed as outdated, still provide safer terrain routing and proximity to emergency airports. Max adds real-world examples, including dangerous direct flights through the Sierra Nevada that ended in CFIT accidents. He outlines three major cross-country paths—northern, central (I-80 corridor), and southern—each with their own altitude and weather considerations. The two agree that pilots often forget how minor route deviations can vastly improve safety with negligible time penalties. Catherine uses a mathematical analogy involving railroad tracks expanding in the sun to illustrate how small vertical detours can stem from large lateral gains. They also dive into the importance of using supplemental oxygen—not just at legally required altitudes but even as low as 9,000 feet. Catherine explains how oxygen concentrators work, how they eliminate the need for tank refills, and how much better she feels after using them on long flights. Max echoes the sentiment, comparing it to the dramatic improvement that came with noise-canceling headsets. Together, they underscore how improved oxygenation can enhance alertness, decision-making, and post-flight fatigue levels. When it comes to safety, Catherine highlights the “5 Fs” checklist she uses for personal go/no-go decisions, emphasizing that fatigue is the hardest one to self-assess. She emphasizes building “outs” into every flight plan, from not booking hotels in advance to carrying backup airline tickets in case weather or fatigue prevent safe continuation. Max shares a similar experience of aborting a leg from Reno when he realized how exhausted he was just after takeoff. They also cover inflight considerations like maneuvering speed and turbulence. Catherine explains that because true airspeed rises with altitude while calibrated airspeed (which affects structural stress) stays lower, flying higher can reduce aircraft stress during turbulence—provided pilots understand how those values relate. Finally, they joke about snacks in the cockpit—Catherine once flew past the Grand Canyon while munching a chocolate croissant from a bread-baking class. The lighthearted close reinforces the theme: safe flying is not just about skill, but about preparation, flexibility, and a little indulgence to make the journey enjoyable. For any pilot planning a summer trip—or just wanting to sharpen their cross-country thinking—this episode is a goldmine of practical tips, insightful math, and hard-won wisdom.

The National Park System (NPS) is a national treasure. US National Parks represent just about every type of feature and wildlife you can imagine. And it's not just parks: The NPS includes national monuments, memorials, scenic trails, lakeshores, battlefields, recreation areas, and more. The concept of a national park is credited to George Catlin, a 19th-century lawyer, painter, and adventurer. His travels took him all over the burgeoning United States, where he met fifty native tribes. He also worried about the loss of wildlife, wilderness, and indigenous people as America expanded westward into the frontier. His solution? A ‘nation's park' — land protected by the government for future generations. That vision became reality in 1872, when Yellowstone, in what's now Wyoming, became the first national park established by Congress. Now there are 63 National Parks across the US and its territories, from Acadia in Maine to Yosemite in California, Denali in Alaska to Dry Tortugas in Florida, and so many more in between. In this episode, we explore the almost overwhelming awesomeness of the NPS and take a virtual tour of some of the coolest experiences you can have in nature. We learn about the history of hippos and the Everglades, meet the most dangerous animal in the Grand Canyon, and learn the best place to eat popovers in Maine. Then we recommend five books that took us on big adventures in national parks, including a historical novel in Oklahoma, an adventure story in the Pacific Northwest, a murder mystery in Michigan, a memoir in Arizona, and a Bigfoot tale in Washington. Shelterwood by Lisa Wingate Wild: A Journey from Lost to Found on the Pacific Crest Trail by Cheryl Strayed A Superior Death by Nevada Barr A Walk in the Park: The True Story of a Spectacular Misadventure in the Grand Canyon by Kevin Fedarko Devolution: A Firsthand Account of the Rainier Sasquatch Massacre by Max Brooks For more on the books we recommend, plus the other cool stuff we talk about, visit show notes.

In this episode of A Scrap Life: Q&A, Brett and Nick are recording for the first time in our brand new podcast studio. They talk about how they've been growing the business beyond just scrap, getting into things like pipe and storage facilities. The guys also share a story about a rim-to-rim hike through the Grand Canyon that seriously pushed their limits, and how doing hard things like that builds confidence for life and business. Tune in to hear how big goals happen one step at a time, and all the little efforts really do add up. Produced by Recycled Media.

In this episode of On Adventure, I sit down with Jess Hanson—a certified mental performance consultant, ultra runner, and coach—to explore what it takes to build a resilient mindset for both high-performance athletes and everyday adventurers. Jess shares her journey from playing lacrosse in college to coaching athletes across sports like skiing, mountain biking, and ultra running. We dive deep into how the mental game shapes athletic success, and how pushing your physical and emotional limits can unlock deeper purpose, confidence, and grit. If you've ever faced the “dark moments” in endurance sports or wondered how to mentally prepare for big goals, this conversation is for you. We talk about identity, risk, motivation, and what it really takes to show up when things get hard. Plus, Jess gives us a behind-the-scenes look at her own ultra journey - yes, even the gritty details of 100K races, helicopter skiing, and rim-to-rim-to-rim Grand Canyon adventures. ⏱️ Timeline Summary [1:20] - From lacrosse to ultra running: Jess shares her athletic evolution [4:45] - Why mental performance matters—and how it's different from traditional coaching [11:40] - Facing fear in the backcountry and building confidence in uncertain moments [16:50] - Running her first 50-miler with just two months of training (!)

Lori Anne wasn't out to break any records. In her mid-60s, recovering from health setbacks, she set a goal that felt both “crazy” and deeply necessary: to move, to grow, to see if she belonged below the rim. What followed was a full-day South Kaibab–Tonto–Bright Angel hike taken with intention and joy. This story is a reminder that not every Grand Canyon hike has to be a race—and there's no such thing as just a Rim2River or just to Ooh Aah.

Could landmarks like the Grand Canyon and Mount Everest actually point to a much younger Earth than commonly believed? What if massive geological features worldwide share a common origin story that challenges conventional timelines? An experienced geologist examines five remarkable landmarks—from the Tibetan Plateau’s vast sedimentary layers to Uluru’s pristine feldspar composition—revealing patterns suggesting catastrophic formation rather than gradual processes. Geomorphologist, Dr Ron Neller, presents compelling geological evidence for rapid, large-scale formation of Earth’s most iconic features. Subscribe to Creation magazine ⇢

We kicked off our epic journey from Boulder, WY to Island Park, ID — complete with canals, cozy RV vibes, and yes, a thunderstorm with a mountain view. But the real magic started when we finally entered Yellowstone National Park — a dream I've had since I was a kid!From geysers that shoot sky-high and rainbow-colored springs, to surprise wildlife sightings like bison traffic jams, mama grizzlies, and even a mountain goat grazing high on the cliffs — it was one jaw-dropping moment after another. We chased waterfalls, dodged snowstorms in May (seriously!), made new friends over bingo and tacos, and marveled at the Grand Canyon of Yellowstone.Top it off with huckleberry chocolates, and crystal-clear lakes — we had a once-in-a-lifetime adventure.

Five teenage boy scouts and their guides had a plan to hike one of the most difficult trails into the Grand Canyon. They only had enough water to make it down to the Colorado River, but once they made it there, they would refill and have plenty of water to hike back out. They didn't expect to hike into a heatwave and run out of water well before they could get down to the river.

Tiff and Britt dive into the nitty-gritty details of turning all that CE energy you have into an implementable system in your practice. They give insight on establishing a point person, training the team, identifying patients, and more.

Thank you for being back here with me and I have Miss Brittany Stone. What is it? No BS Brit. Miss BS Brit. I don't remember what Carrie calls you. This is one of them, right? One of them. But also soon to be Grand Canyon champion. If you didn't listen to our case acceptance one, go listen and hopefully soon we will have some results from Brit killing it. Yeah, you will be a survivor.   Britt (00:10) What fun of them!   Winner survivor. One of the two. At least one.   The Dental A Team (00:29) but then I wanna know how much you sleep on Saturday when you're done. So that'll be the big question. Exactly, yeah, how long does it take for you to get back on the bike once you're done? But thank you for being here with us today, Britt. I think we've gotten, I love podcasting with you, your hygiene brain, like Dana's hygiene brain, you guys just kind of come at it from a different angle. I know the rest of us all have dental assisting backgrounds and.   Britt (00:32) Yeah, like that. I if I can reach my legs or not.   The Dental A Team (00:55) you know, hygiene assisting, but that hygienist brain just shares a different section. ⁓ And I think you do really well relating with the doctors and kind of that support team space like we spoke to on the case acceptance one. So I'm excited for today, Brett. Thank you for being here. ⁓ You've got the Grand Canyon, but like, gosh, what else is what else is new and exciting? You just went to one of our favorite Mexican restaurants not too long ago. So that's true.   Britt (01:21) conferences, I went to PNDC, that   was a good time. Luckily it was gorgeous weather there. mean, podcasting today is special. I wear my tooth earrings for us today since we're podcasting, know, just lots of fun things.   The Dental A Team (01:35) Getting a little fancy. I like it. And you guys, so you just went to that conference, you went to the Arizona Dental Convention that was in March, right? I think that one's always March for like the last, I don't know, 50 years. It's always been in March. ⁓ And then you just went to the other one and then you're heading out again in a couple weeks to dentist advisors. Yeah.   Britt (01:55) Yeah, Dentist Money Summit   is by Dentist Advisors, which will be in gorgeous Park City, Utah. So, you know, it's a rough life over here.   The Dental A Team (02:01) Yeah, I   know, right? And actually it's perfect timing because they, I think we've all like our, our seasons were a little bit off this year. So we are barely getting hot, which normally we're at like 110 already, um, which has been fantastic in Arizona, but that meant that Nevada and, um, Salt Lake area, both Reno and Salt Lake area have had snow longer. So I think you're going to hit Salt Lake for Dentist Money Summit right as the like peak.   summer season starts. So you're gonna get some beautiful weather and I'm a little jealous. I will be in California or something like that. But anyways, somewhere.   Britt (02:36) somewhere else. It'll be great.   And my second, my nephew, second of my nieces and nephews graduate. So I won't go to graduation, but I'll get to go. I'm like, I'll be coming like a couple weeks later to see you. So I'll go get to see them while I'm up there too.   The Dental A Team (02:50) Okay.   Okay, good, good. I was like, wait a second, how do we get you there? That's good.   Britt (02:55) I'm not fighting the crowd up there for graduation,   which he's like, mom, everybody graduates. I'm like, no, it's still a big deal. We'll just celebrate when I come see you on my own instead of along with everybody else.   The Dental A Team (03:06) gosh,   that's funny. I was just talking over the weekend, we had a graduation party that we had to drop in on yesterday. So was like, gosh, I'm gonna have to, which is, I don't like thinking about it, but I have to start thinking about it that Brody's in a year. So was like, Aaron's like, is he gonna want a party? And he, said, no, he's gonna be the kid that's like, everybody graduates. It's fine. Like it's no big deal. But it is a big deal. same, Exactly.   Britt (03:26) But they still want it, even though you know it, even though they're like, they're   disappointed, it's like, oh, come on. But like, they want it.   The Dental A Team (03:33) Exactly. It's like my birthday where I was like, it's fine. Like just a dinner, but like, had they not done a big deal for my 40th, I probably would have, you know, been in shambles. So when it comes, he's surely going to want it, but graduation season is upon us and it's wild that we are in the space of life that we're experiencing it with them. think that's crazy. And anyways, you've got some fun travels. if you guys aren't heading CE events, make sure that you do and make sure that you check out.   a lot of RCE events. So if you're a listener, if you're a client, whatever, you're a listener and a client, like whatever you guys want, we have, what is it? Every third Wednesday, we have a CE webinar. We've got a really cool webinar coming up in August that we do. ⁓ Every year the content shifts and changes, but.   Britt (04:20) to like check out our Instagram if you don't follow us. If I'm there, come find me. Let me know, message us. I got at PNUC to see a few clients which is really fun. It's always nice when we get to meet up in person. So, whether you're a client or just a listener, come find me.   The Dental A Team (04:22) Yeah.   Yeah.   Yeah,   especially in Brits position because you have a handful of your own clients, but you oversee a lot of the company. So you know all of the client names, but you don't get to see them and meet them. So I know I have a few clients that are asking if I was going to be there and I'm not. I was like, you got to go find, seek out Brit, like go meet Brit. So definitely, definitely follow the Instagram, make sure that you reach out to Brit.   If you're there, look for her, say hello, take a little picture with her, and then make sure you're hitting those CEs and make sure you're hitting all the free ones, you guys. We put out a ton of free CE and why not? Because I know you need to stack those hygienists and doctors. You guys need to stack those CE credits. So do it for free wherever you can. And then, like I tell one of my prized clients, set up a CE bucket so that you're saving money for the CE that's not free. And on that note...   I think, ⁓ we were actually just talking and I think it's funny because I do think this was like super high thing and right now it's like, I think it's kind of stabilized. It's not quite as sought after as heavily as it was, but for the clients that are doing it or still trying to implement it, there are still some really great CE avenues out there. Today we wanted to talk a little bit on the sleep apnea avenue, systems wise, not to sleep apnea. That's not our genre. You can go take CE for that, Britt can probably tell you a ton.   medically, but you know, that's not our genre, but our genre, our space, our niche is the systems behind it. And so on the note of CE and implementing, do think even if you're not doing sleep apnea, or you're not considering sleep apnea, a lot of what we talk about today is copy pasteable, like systems are systems, you guys, and we we overcomplicate it in life. And what we say for one thing can easily be duplicated and slightly altered for something else. So if there's CE that you're doing, which doctors we love you.   so much. And when you go to CE, you come back just like ecstatic. And if you didn't take team with you, you're the only one. And it's so hard sometimes to get that generating. Typically, it's that there's not, it's just all a fun idea. There's not a really good system behind it to get that momentum. So taking these systems, even what we talked about for sleep apnea, whatever CE you do, apply it to that. And like you said with the sleep apnea, if they're not taking team members, like it can be really hard to implement. And that's a space too.   if you can bring team members to any of that CE or sign them up for the webinar and get them included in it, I think that's a great space too. anyhow, sleep apnea side and system side, Britt, you've worked out the hygienist. So I know that this is some of the stuff like the questionnaire style and that stuff. Like what do you see and what you've actually helped practices implement the systems for sleep apnea. So what do you see as?   Britt (07:10) Thank   The Dental A Team (07:24) the biggest ticket items of implementing sleep apnea or just CE style in general that is easy, that's duplicatable like that.   Britt (07:34) And I think sleep and my yo that's coming in pretty strong for a lot of people too. I think you can similar areas when it comes to looking to implement something successfully. I think that you would look for. So if you're doing one or the other, ⁓ number one, I think is making sure that our team knows what it is. Like Tiff said, doc, you can go to a CE and you get all excited and you understand all the things behind it to see all the dots connect and why this is so important.   because it is, but the team often is behind. So whenever you're looking to do something, you might just take a course as like an exploratory, right? And then you're like, no, this is something I really want to do. When you start to get into that phase of like, no, I really want to work on implementing this. I want you to look for things that are going to help train your team because your team is going to be needing to have 90 % of these conversations with patients and you're going to   Goal is for you not to have all of the conversations with all of the patients. The goal is for the team to be able to help support you, identify patients and start to educate patients and warm them up to the idea. Because just like for your team, it's kind of a newer thing or a different thing or something they don't know all the details about, it doesn't come easily to them. Patients even more so. So that's why our team needs to be really confident in knowing what it is, the reasons why, and being able to talk about it.   I think is number one place to start. Along with that, would say have someone call it your champion, call it your lead of that thing, whatever title you want to give them of someone who is going to be that person who is going to make sure the team has all the things. We educate the team on all the things and they're going to be the one to really ⁓ kind of take point on implementation and keeping this going and getting it to where it becomes a program that's ingrained within our practice.   we need someone to be that person. So from the get-go, education, someone who's gonna be a point person before we even start on implementing anything with our patients. So that would be my number one thing, Tiff, to start with is education and identify as someone who's gonna be the point person, because they're gonna start thinking of implementation, what are all the things we need in our practice to get this program going.   The Dental A Team (09:54) Yeah, and even like ortho, I have like the same I'm thinking the same thought process because anything that you're trying to grow that doesn't you don't put attention on isn't going to grow. So to your champion conversation there, whether it's sleep, my ortho implants, like anything that's not crowns, fillings, bridges, you know, and even I do have a lot of practices that even do it for crowns, whatever that champion making sure there's a   Britt (09:57) Hmm. Yeah.   The Dental A Team (10:22) a job description. And I love that you said the education piece because that I think even when I've seen practices implement the champion space, it's still the education piece falls back to the doctor. But putting that I think that's brilliant putting that on the champion of scheduling out the lunch and learns making sure that they're doing the role playing with the with the team and that they're having these meetings with the team on the education and the why behind it, so that they can take that information and   and tackle it with the patients. And then it made me think too, like KPI is their key performance indicator. So that champion is responsible for seeing, how many times, how many patients do we need to talk to about this to get our case acceptance where we want it or to get that many cases? I know like for ortho, we might do, we want five starts this month or 10 starts this month. So then you look at how many patients do we need to talk to about ortho in order to get.   that because your case acceptance might be like 25%. So you're doing the math for that. then, Brett, I'm thinking that champion is then responsible for collecting the data from the team on how many patients do we talk to, how many patients signed up, and kind of championing all of the results and then looking at how do I control and manipulate the results based on the education implementations, all of those pieces.   Britt (11:46) agreed and that's I think probably you Tiff right with clients. Like you said, the new thing, right? Name the new thing that we're doing within the office and you know, they want to do more of that thing and I'm like, alright, well, what's going on? Why aren't we even getting it presented to patients? What's happening? Well, we're just not talking about it, right? Like it really comes back to that. That's one of the biggest hurdles to get over is just talking about it and making sure patients know what it is.   The Dental A Team (12:05) Yeah.   Britt (12:16) what benefit it would be to them if they're a candidate, if this is something that they need. So that's why I say, make sure we've got that foundation first. And then we go into, okay, we've got a team more comfortable talking about it. How do we identify opportunities with patients? And then that's where we move into what kind of screening do we want for this specific treatment for sleep apnea? Then all right, what kind of screening do we wanna incorporate?   across the board. So it's not reliant on a human thinking, this one would be a candidate. Like, no, what are you screening to where we know when these things are checked or we get this answer to this question, they are someone then that we are going to talk to about a sleep appliance or sleep apnea, we're working on getting them tested, whatever it may be.   The Dental A Team (13:01) Yeah. And within that, asking those leading questions so that the patient starts thinking, because I think like back to, I think a lot of people do ortho. So back to ortho, you come in and you're hot and heavy. Like I got to get, I'm getting ortho cases and the patient has not had any like leading questions to make them start thinking that there's a problem or a solution needed for a problem. And then you come in and you're like, have you ever thought about ortho? And they're like, no, I haven't.   Right? Because we didn't make them think about ortho kind of the same. Like, do you, you know, ⁓ I hear you might be a snorer, right? Or just coming in and being like, Hey, you've got these weird scallops on your tongue and I think you might need this. And then we just go on this tangent of sleep apnea and they're like, I have no issue sleeping. But if we start asking those leading questions of, do you find yourself tired in the middle of the day? does your partner, you know, do you wake your partner up a lot? Do you toss and turn a lot?   night? Like, are you getting up to use the restroom a lot at night? Like different things that are preheating and leading into there might be something going on there, I think is a space that we kind of overlook sometimes. And we just jump into this is the solution. And it kind of gets lost in translation. And then right on to like layering on top of that, you've got your questionnaire, you've got your team, they're ready to go. You've got all of these pieces.   there, you know what your lead and lag measures are, then you set like identifying the patients, we're identifying the patients and then that layer, like it never stops, there's always the next layer. And that next layer is okay, if we can identify the patients, now we get to track and see, are we getting those patients? So then we say, okay, well, most of my patient base is 18 to 26 years old.   might not be getting like that might not be the patient base you need for sleep apnea or for implants or whatever it is that you want to specialize in. then you've got to look and see, do I need to determine something different in my patient avatar to fit what I'm trying to implement what I'm trying to get because there's only so much you can do with the patients that you're getting in. So it just like keeps layering but comes down to I love like step one it feels like Brit from what you're saying is   Find that champion and make sure that champion is thoroughly educated in what their job is and what the procedure is so then they can, step two, help you to train the team, get the team on board, figure out the why. Step three, find the patients. Step four, how do we get more of those patients?   Britt (15:42) Yeah, which I think then plays into marketing, right? Marketing at the end of the day is the number of times of exposure. So, right, when it comes down to it, then what are we putting out there? What do we have around our office? What, even if it's peripherally, are our patients seeing to know that this is a thing and that it exists? Because then it won't be as much of a surprise to them when we have a conversation or they're like, well, why aren't you know, I don't even know what that is. They at least, oh, I've seen XYZ about that.   thing in your office or on the TV out in the waiting room, whatever it may be, to start warming them up to it as well. And then depending on how much you want to grow that and be known for that thing, mean, Tiff is the marketing queen. Then there's like a lot more marketing that goes behind it.   The Dental A Team (16:29) Yeah, I do love marketing. don't know why, but I really do. ⁓ But you're making me think of, because it's subliminal. I think that's why I love it. Because it's like, what can I do to make someone think this way, right? Like I love, I love the way the brain works. I love communication. That's why. So I'm thinking as you're speaking to that, like you're saying like have it off to the side and have it on a TV like 100 % because most of the time we're just being again, preheated.   to the possibility of needing something. So if you think of like a Doritos commercial, right? Like they don't just in the beginning come out with the, like they're not like Doritos, right? It's like, hey, we're grabbing some Doritos out of a chip bowl and all of the like tortilla chips, the unnamed tortilla chips over there is full, but the Doritos are like empty, but we're having conversation, we're having fun, we're in a party because now you're thinking about Doritos associated to fun. So that's how marketing works. It's like little snippets of   this thing and how it's going to benefit your life. Not just like, hey, have some Doritos. Because if somebody came by and they're like, hey, Doritos are amazing, have Doritos. They're just, they're so tasty, you're gonna love them. You're like, I'm okay actually, like, I don't need a Dorito, right? But if they're like, hey, like, let's have fun, let's have a party, let's get people talking, it's gonna be so amazing and you can have these Doritos over here that's gonna, everybody's gonna stand around the bowl and they're gonna socialize.   then you're like, yeah, let me try these Doritos. So it's kind of that same thing. Like how is this thing, this sleep apnea, this ortho, this Botox, these injectors, the fillables, how is this going to benefit the patient's life and speak to the benefits and the problem, not the solution? Because being like, Botox, Botox, Botox, Botox, right? Like Botox is cool, but like why do I want Botox? Because I wanna look 30 when I'm 45.   That's why I Botox. And when do I need to start? When I'm 28. Like, how do we get this subliminal messaging into different aspects of our practice and our speaking? And then what it also does is gets your team speaking that language too, because they're constantly seeing it. So they're constantly being reminded. And as you guys are checking on...   Britt (18:23) Perfect.   The Dental A Team (18:44) KPI is and how is it working and how is it growing? We're constantly coming back to this space that you're trying to implement and grow. Caveat of one at a time. Botox and color is fine. Sleep apnea.   Britt (18:56) I was thinking the same exact thing.   The Dental A Team (19:01) you can't come home and be like we're doing sleep apnea we're gonna ramp up our ortho and guess what guys I need five more implants and it's like I don't know which one to focus on so one major change at a time and let it sit let it ruminate and see how it goes I like six months at least for like a big implementation like that ⁓ but   Britt (19:22) Be   good at that thing, right? I think that's when we do too much at once. You and your team, right? And the bigger the team, the more people you're trying to move. You're not gonna get good at it. And then let's be honest, if I'm not good at it, I'm not gonna do it as much. Let's just welcome to human nature again. Like it's a harder thing to do. It takes more effort. But if we focus on one and that one thing we get really good at and it becomes really easy, then that will stick and then we can move on to the next thing.   The Dental A Team (19:52) Yep. Yep. And always come back again to everything else too, because I've had clients that I've done, you know, let's focus in on implants. we're getting we're talking about it this many times, we're getting this many, we're looking for this many, you know, whatever all the pieces so   we're speaking to implants, we get really good at that. And they're like, cool, like, I want to do more ortho. It's like, okay, well, now we're laying on ortho. But then they're like, hey, wait, I haven't done an implant. I'm like, well, why? Because you lost focus on the implants, because you're so focused on the ortho. So you've got to just layer it in there and be like, on top of like being good at this, we also need to become good at this. So don't lose sight of it or stop tracking the one because you layered on something else, you literally just layering another level to it. And now you're doing both because   honestly, just those two, right? Implants and ortho go hand in hand, you know, do ortho before you place the implants or do ortho so that you can place an implant because the space is too small. Like how are you, how can your team help layer those together and support you in getting those things done? And firstly, Baphne, it's exactly the same. How can your team support you in getting it done? Because you've got what? 1500 to 3000 patients. You've got a team of five to   25 30 you cannot do it all you've got to have at least one champion who is helping you and when you do have those spaces to Britt's point of not doing too many and losing sight if you have a champion of each your phone you they are focused on that thing and so they're ensuring their thing their needle is moving so you've got your   champion of sleep apnea that's like, hey guys, nope, we lost focus, don't forget. And you got your champion of ortho that's like, cool, I've got my metrics over here and making sure that those are staying in line.   Britt (21:41) And I think once you start doing some cases, especially things where there's more of a knowledge gap, even in Visalign, right? Make sure you're getting results. So like you're getting testimonials, you're getting pictures at the end. Whenever there's a big investment, people want to know like what that means for them. Like what can that be for me? And so that's where   Having something to look at to see before and after and having testimonials for people goes a long ways, especially on things where there's more of a knowledge gap like sleep apnea. Because those patients are gonna really highlight what is important to them, which then is gonna be most likely what's important to all of your people that are in their same seat.   The Dental A Team (22:22) Yeah, I love it. love it. one, step one, figure out what you're going to do. If it's sleep apnea, it's sleep apnea. One thing, choose the one that you're gonna focus on right now. Step two, figure out what your champion's position looks like or lead or whatever you wanna call it. Quarterback, I don't care what you call it. That position, what's that job description? What are the metrics? Like what does that person need to do? So step one, figure out what you're gonna do. Step two, find your champion.   Britt (22:26) One thing, one thing.   The Dental A Team (22:52) figure out what that champion's gonna do. Step three, train your team. Step four, do the thing and track the results every time. I think really easy duplicatable systems that we tagged here as like Sleepapnea, Myo, whatever you wanna focus it on, but literally this system can be duplicated for any major change you're trying to make in procedures within your practice. And then I think the last layer is   within your metrics, watch your marketing and figure out what needs to shift and change there. Brit, brilliant. Brilliant Brit. That's the one. Brilliant Brit. Brilliant Brit.   Britt (23:27) That's the one I like   more. That's the better one.   The Dental A Team (23:32) one   I'm gonna use. Brilliant Brit. ⁓ thank you or brainy Brit right but anyways thank you ⁓ for being here with me today for doing this. I knew ⁓ with the implementations you've done before with Sleep Apnea and Mayo you've worked with the you've worked with that before so I knew that you would have some great ideas so thank you so much for being here. I can't wait to hear from you on Saturday that you survived the Grand Canyon Rim to Rim happily and you're still smiling and you're just sleeping.   Britt (24:02) Maybe I'll stream my before and after. We'll see. Maybe even with Dental A Team. We'll see. It depends on how bad it is afterwards.   The Dental A Team (24:08) Yeah.   Oh my gosh, that's fair. Yeah, that's fair.

In this week's episode of the Trail Network podcast, hosts Leah Yingling and Rachel Drake reconnect for a deep dive into recent adventures, personal milestones, and reflections on life, pregnancy, and trail running.Leah kicks off the episode with a recap of her recent trip to Northern Wales, where she crewed for her husband, Mike, at Ultra Trail Snowdonia—a notoriously rugged and stunningly beautiful race often dubbed “Hardrock at sea level.” Leah shares her experience navigating the course logistics, supporting Mike through brutally technical terrain, and balancing the demands of international travel while six months pregnant. The pair also reflect on the underrepresentation of women in ultra-distance events like Snowdonia and the broader implications of participation barriers in these challenging races.Rachel then recounts her rim-to-rim crossing of the Grand Canyon, completed just days prior to recording, as part of a supported project with Osprey and Precision Fuel & Hydration. She offers a raw and thoughtful look at preparing for a major effort while pregnant, including fueling changes, unexpected physical challenges, and the importance of adaptability and community support. The two also reflect on their evolving pregnancies, comparing their experiences, training adaptations, and what it means to find joy in movement during such a transformational time.The episode wraps with a meaningful discussion around postpartum expectations, race deferral policies, and the nuanced realities of running through pregnancy and fertility journeys. They spotlight Stephanie Case's inspiring victory at the 100K at Snowdonia—six months postpartum and breastfeeding mid-race—as well as broader issues around representation, sponsorship policies, and UTMB ranking implications for pregnant athletes.With honesty, humor, and heart, Leah and Rachel celebrate the many ways women show up in the trail world—on the start line, crewing, parenting, recovering, and dreaming big.This episode is edited and produced by the Sandyboy Productions Podcast Network.A special thank you to Osprey for supporting this episode.

In this week's episode, I'm diving into the captivating secrets of the Grand Canyon. We'll explore some of the long-standing mysteries surrounding this incredible natural wonder. I'll be discussing the alleged early 1900s discovery by an explorer within a mysterious cave nestled in the canyon walls. We'll also delve into the purported connections between the canyon and ancient pagan religions, as well as some of the paranormal experiences that have been reported over the years. Furthermore, we'll examine the deep spiritual significance the canyon holds for Native American tribes and their traditional beliefs about its origins.We will also consider the persistent questions surrounding the Smithsonian Institution and allegations of historical cover-ups, along with the reasons behind the restricted areas within the canyon that are off-limits to both air travel and visitors. Finally, we'll touch upon the debate regarding the canyon's formation – was it a gradual process carved by the Colorado River, or could it be the result of a more sudden, world-wide cataclysmic event such as Noah's flood?I hope you find this exploration as fascinating as I do!*Amy is a Christian Counselor and Coach:-To schedule an appointment: ⁠⁠https://www.biblicalguidancecounseling.com/appointments⁠⁠Amy teaches online verse by verse Bible studies:Rumble link: ⁠⁠https://rumble.com/c/BibleStudywithEyesontheright⁠⁠Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/eyesontheright4.0/https://www.instagram.com/eyesontherightpodcast/

Episode resources: Subscribe to The Dental A-Team podcast Schedule a Practice Assessment Leave us a review Transcript: The Dental A Team (00:01) Hello, Dental A Team listeners. I am so excited to be here today. I have Miss Brittany Stone. I pull her in every now and again as often as I can to do recordings with me. And I love, love, love nothing more than having Britt here. I love having all of the consultants in a rotation, but Britt is, you know, a special OG podcaster.   She has been with me since the beginning of time on these podcasts, it feels like. So, Britt, thank you so much for being here today. How are you? It is a beautiful Monday morning for us. I'm actually a little warm. It's getting hotter in Phoenix again, but Britt, how are you today?   Britt (00:40) I'm doing good. I mean, it's the time of year where shade is beautiful, right? Like it makes a big difference. And right now in the shade, it is still very nice. It's just the direct sunlight that's a little bit warmer. So it is a gorgeous day outside and I will still definitely go get out on a ride later today. So but happy to be here. It's always fun. I feel like we said it before like these are times like geek out together. So it's like hangout time, but we get everybody else to come along with us and listen to the fun things we chat   The Dental A Team (00:43) Yes.   fair.   That's so true. I do love bringing them on rides. I always make Dana talk about like workout apparel and have something for me to do.   Britt (01:12) Dana's like the   deaf queen. need something like Dana's got whatever it is that you need.   The Dental A Team (01:20) know,   I know I love it. So I just pick and choose like what do I need from who's on who's on with me today and what can I gather from them and you are my outdoors like Dana's outdoors too, but she's my apparel and my protein. You're my like outdoors you're doing Grand Canyon this weekend, I was supposed to be doing it next weekend. I don't think I am but you are doing it Friday. So in just a couple days, are you prepped and ready? I don't know that there's every day that anyone says yes, I'm ready. But are you prepped and ready?   for the Grand Canyon Rim to Rim, guys. She is hiking from one rim of the canyon to the other rim of the canyon. It's a big deal.   Britt (01:54) in one day.   yeah, it's four days away and I'm as ready as I'm gonna be. Like at this point, like let's go.   The Dental A Team (02:01) Yeah.   I agree. agree. I'm near doing it in one day, which we had planned on doing as well. I was calculating the other day based on like how our hike was going what I felt like our timing was going to be. And I calculated with the addition of the extra like two ish miles because the bridge is closed. ⁓ I was thinking like a good 20 minute a mile pace obviously would get you to like 10 hours but then that's no breaks. That's a freaking hauling pace.   Britt (02:20) Correct?   The Dental A Team (02:31) So I thought for us it was gonna probably be like 12 to 13 hours. Is that what you're thinking? Yeah.   Britt (02:37) Yeah, and I have to remind myself, like it's one of those things. I'm a power through girly for most things, but this is a marathon, not a sprint. And so from things I've read, they're like, take a break every hour, eat something every hour, make sure you're hydrating. So I'm gonna try to do that. And they say, get down the canyon in the first like third of whatever time you're planning and it's gonna take you like double that time to get out. So that's fun.   The Dental A Team (03:05) good. Good. That's what I was thinking too. Like, take your time. That's what we were saying when we checked our pace, did like almost we did nine and a half, 10 miles, and kept like a 20 to 25 minute pace and it was fine. But it was like, that's a third of what we are going to be doing. so making sure that was to get down. So that was, you know, get down in that amount of time.   Britt (03:08) Yeah.   The Dental A Team (03:26) But I'm excited for you. can't wait to hear about it. You're to have to post pictures, send them to our marketing team so that we can see a Duna-Lay team out on the rim to rim. It's something that our team has been actually talking about for a couple of years now. So Britt's going to be the first one to overcome that bucket list item for us and test it out. So she's our test queen.   Britt (03:44) We'll see if   I go do it with you again when someone else wants to go do it or if it's like, I did that once, I'm good.   The Dental A Team (03:51) Yeah, yeah, well, hopefully it's I'll do it with you again, because   it sounds like my Grand Canyon partner is you know, he's younger than me, but he's an old man and is falling apart. So he may not be able to do it. So you might have to do it with me later. So you just keep me posted. That's true. That's true. That's true.   Britt (04:04) You and I can do it, and Damon will crush us all. We know this, but we can always go and do it. So yes, I will   keep you posted. I will take pictures. I know no matter what, it'll be gorgeous, and that's what it's all about.   The Dental A Team (04:15) Yeah, good. I'm excited for it. And I just, I'm so impressed. So super cool. I can't wait to see pictures and everyone who's listening, you're welcome for the adventure there and keep your eyes peeled. If you don't know what the Grand Canyon Rim to Rim is, go look it up because you need to understand what she's doing. It's a big deal. ⁓ and Erin, it's a fee. And Erin keeps reminding me because, and I grew up in Arizona. And so I think that we've talked about this before. We think like,   Britt (04:34) It's a scene.   The Dental A Team (04:43) to the Grand Canyon. It's a giant hole in the ground. It's been there forever. I grew up here. It's not a big deal. And Aaron's like from Oregon. He's like, it's a one like it's one of the wonders of the world. And so we definitely take it for granted. So I'm sure a lot of listeners here like you guys are crazy, which actually that I was talking to him about this on Saturday while we were hiking and I'm like, gosh, I know I take this for granted. But I said, you know what, actually, it's kind of like in dentistry, when we're diagnosing and we're just like, you need this and we're using all this terminology that   us is so like second nature. It's so just ingrained in us and it makes sense. But to the other people, it doesn't. And I correlated that thought process of like, for me, the Grand Canyon is something that has and will always be there. And it's just like a part of my life. I take it for granted because I grew up in Arizona. I'm like, I've never even really spent time there because I'm like, Matt's there. I'll do it someday.   Britt (05:38) I've it. I've seen it.   The Dental A Team (05:40) And he's like, people come from out of the country to see the Grand Canyon. To me, that's freaking wild. But that's the difference, right? In communication, even, and understanding. And I think it flows that idea, that mindset of like, what are we taking for granted? What are we skimming past because it's natural for us or it's always there. And I think we skim past a lot of times, relationship building or ⁓   focusing on like the problem when we're treatment planning and jumping to the just the solution and speaking in words and terminology maybe that people don't necessarily like relate to and that relating piece is massive and it's kind of that same we all have spaces of life that we just take for granted and we skim past like the Grand Canyon and 7th wonder of the freaking world right it's that communication space and I think ⁓ on this Grand Canyon topic here   Britt (06:29) you   The Dental A Team (06:36) your case acceptance directly correlates. And I'm sure Erin was like, this is super cool. We're talking dentistry on our hike. I'm talking about the grand canyon. But it's so true. And Brett, have you seen that? I know you consult a lot of practices too. And have you seen that too, where it's like, gosh, we're just, and you've been a hygienist actually, right? So just speaking to the like solution, like, you need a crown, you need a bridge, you need an implant, you need full mouth reconstruction. And patients are like glazed over like, cool, really, really   Britt (06:42) Yeah.   The Dental A Team (07:05) diving into that, Britt, what have you seen within that and how do we get back to like basics on how to simplify case acceptance increasing because we do overcomplicate it in my opinion.   Britt (07:18) I agree, we overcomplicate it, but we also oversimplify at the same time. I think when it comes to talking to patients about things, because these are things that are, we don't even have to think about them. We are around all day long, this is what we're trained to do, so identifying it, knowing it's important, they're just things that come so easy to us, kind of like the Grand Canyon thing that I'm like, yeah, I've seen it a couple times, but you know, it's fine. ⁓   The Dental A Team (07:23) Yeah.   there.   Britt (07:46) But with patients, think often what we'll do is we will like gloss over parts of it to where, and we think that we can say like a couple words and like, you need this. And they're going to be like, yeah, absolutely. I need that. And they're going to make sure it gets done because in our brain it makes complete sense that that's what needs to happen. And I like to try to remind people when it comes to how we present treatment.   ultimately getting patients to the point of doing their treatment. Like that is truly where we are playing the advocate for that patient. And so in it, like, yes, it'll be thrown around that it sells all of these different things, but really it's how can I explain it in a way to where that patient one understands what's needed, what the problem is, what will happen if they don't do anything and how we can get that thing done.   And my job is to help to make that as simple, as clear as possible to where they understand it and they get that treatment done instead of sometimes just short-changing pieces of it to where they don't really understand and they're saying no. And I'm like, well, it's their choice. And I'm like, but did I really explain it to where they understand what choice they're making?   The Dental A Team (08:58) Yeah, that's a really good point. I like how you said that like over complicating, but oversimplifying because there's that middle ground, right of like, walking, we're going too fast. And so we exhaust ourselves halfway through the Grand Canyon hike or we're going too slow. And now it's night when we're getting out and that's scary. So it's like finding that middle ground of pace to make the perfect run to run hike, I think it was actually perfect. had a client call last week that they were like,   And this I think is super common. We've heard this a million times, right? Like he's taking too long in the exams. He's explaining everything, right? It's like, okay, are they a details person? Are they a bullet point person? Really being able to gauge the human that you're talking to, the patient in the chair and getting some of that information. you mentioned like making sure the team is supporting the doctor. And I, when I speak to doctors in relation like this, I really like to call them the support team.   And I know everybody calls them like employees or my employees or they're my staff or they're my team. And if you attach that support team to it, like they're really here to support you. So having them help to prep the patient. So handoffs are essential and making sure like, ⁓ they know they bring led to the fact that there's potentially something going on here. So that's that co-diagnosis space, right? Which I think is a hard word to understand because the word diagnosis is in there and you're not actually diagnosing. You're just like,   leading them down a path that there may be a diagnosis, I think it gets a little confusing.   Britt (10:27) diagnose, preheat, whatever term that you want to use, I'll tell you my view in my hygiene brain and I think, again as an assistant, you should think the same way. If I'm sitting there complaining about how long an exam is taking and it's not because the doctor is talking about personal stuff and chit chatting with this patient on the personal side of things, I didn't do my job well.   The Dental A Team (10:29) 3D.   Yes.   Britt (10:53) Because if I did my job well, I would have already talked about most of those things to that patient, to where the doctor doesn't have to have that full conversation. I can recap it, say, hey, here's what's going on. Here's what I see. Here's what we talked about. We want to make sure you take a look at it, doc, to see what's needed and confirm, you know, if there's anything that's needed there. Cause then I, I've cut down 90 % of that conversation for them. And I like to be on time. I think most hygienists like to be on time.   One of the things that I loved about being a hygienist is like, I'm running my column. Like that's part of the beauty is that I have a lot of control over how that day runs. It's just my exam part. And I have a lot of control over how that exam goes if I prep.   The Dental A Team (11:37) 100 % agree. I had a client two weeks ago, speaking with a doctor because their team was like, Tiff, like, I can't get him into these other appointments. And these are running long and blah, blah, blah. So I go into the call thinking like, all right, I got to get this doctor in shape. Like, what is what is he doing that's holding them back from being on time in these other areas? And what it came down to realistically was the inconsistency in the information.   from the support team going to the doctors and the inconsistency in having a support team in the room with the doctor. And so when I go in like, okay, you gotta cut down exams. And he is like, well, that's cool. But like, it's so inconsistent. That makes me think, right? So you're saying pass off that information, gather the information, pass it off. I hated nothing more as a dental assistant than to be gathering the information and then it not being used.   And you know, that's still to this day. If I make something, if I create something, if I get the information and the data and then it's not, it's overlooked, it's not used, or I'm asked to create it again, I will freak out. It's just, it's just who I am as a human and Brit does really well with me. ⁓ but this team specifically, right. was intermittently, like sometimes they had it, sometimes they passed it off. Sometimes they did it. Sometimes they were in the room with him to anesthetize.   So they were giving a handoff like sometimes they weren't. So then what happens is you're training that doctor to not trust that the information's going to be there. So the team is upset and they're like, well, it's like he asks the questions as if we didn't do it correctly. And I said, whoa, whoa, whoa, I think he's asking the questions because he's not always trusting that it was done.   And now his routine is to just do it, whether you've done it or not. So to the support team and to the doctors who need to train their support team, train that consistency. And the inconsistency of it is what will break it apart. Your exams will go long and truth be told, your case acceptance decreases. The trust that you guys have, chair side, the communication and the relationship that you and your support team have, it builds the trust for the patient. They can feel it.   And when you pass off that information correctly, when you preheat the patient, you pass it off, you guys are in communication, you're in communication with the patient, the patient is like, this is fantastic, like this is going to save my tooth, this is going to get rid of this problem because we're speaking to the problem, the solution and the consequence, right? So what's the problem that we're fixing? And when we're all speaking that same language around the same thing, the patients are like, this is fantastic.   I do need this fixed and your case acceptance will increase. But if you doctors are carrying all the load or if hygienists are carrying the load and the doctors are like, cool story bro, whatever, we're not sharing it, right? We're not sharing the support there. Your case acceptance won't be as high as if those other pieces are in place. So, Brett, I think one of the pieces, speaking to the team that is inconsistent and speaking to the doctor, you pulled out one of my favorite words, control.   Britt (14:45) Hahaha   The Dental A Team (14:45) And I   like to speak to teams and doctors of like, yes, that's a problem. What is, what aspect of control do you have to fix that problem? Cause what happens is in human life in general, we get wrapped up in the problem and we're like, hands in the air. Like I didn't do it. That's on you. And we wait for someone else to fix it. But the reality is we do have some control over it. So doctors creating and forming those habits coming in and being like, Hey, what you got for me?   Instead of barreling in and being like, how's that tooth feeling? Let's look at your x-rays. Your consistency and your habit you form is to come into a room and acknowledge the team first, patient after.   Britt (15:29) love that you brought up consistency, right? And when I'm consistent, right? We're humans of pattern, right? Like we like habits, we like to follow the same pattern. So agree, that's when I am a consistent human and doing things the same way. Then kind of like the control piece, I'm like, then I have more control if I'm consistent that I know that that other person is usually going to follow along for the   part and maybe we've got to have a conversation to clear something up but if they know what they can expect of me and I'm gonna show up for them every single time then it makes life a lot easier and so I think of it that way too like when I'm doing exams with doctors right usually if a doctor is gonna repeat everything I already talked about it's because I didn't hop in soon enough and give them enough of a like rundown of what we already had a conversation about so that's me so if they start doing that then that's a me problem okay I need to   hop in soon enough and make sure I give them a good enough recap of what we've already talked about so they don't need to repeat that conversation. I will tell you guys, doctors, you might have a hard time letting go of these things, but team members, ultimately doctors want to let go of these things and they want you to step up so they can and everything's gonna run much more efficiently when we can do that is when team members are able to take care of as much as they possibly can.   make your doctor's life as easy as possible by teeing them up and making I love it because I'm like, if I am on point in my communication, that doctor is just going to follow me. Even if I don't know that doctor very well, like I could, I've temped in offices before I could go temp in an office. And if I follow the same way I do it every single time, because it leads them right into what's next and what's needed. And then I happen to do my part and they finish it off. I guarantee you within a day of working with a brand new doctor.   I can have them in a flow of how I'm running hands down because I'm doing my part consistently.   The Dental A Team (17:30) Agreed. I totally agree. I've done it. I've done the same thing. I've come as a dental assistant for an office and the doctor was like, this is amazing. I was like, I can't have it any other way because then I don't have control over the timing of the appointment and I'm responsible for your schedule being on time. And so if I allow you the control, you have no idea what time it is, you have no idea what's coming after this appointment. I do I have that information. And I'm responsible. People are going to come to me, right? That's what   this doctor was like, the assistants and the assistants like, well, the doctor and I'm like, well, it's the assistants like assistants, your goal, your job is to ensure that we're running on time and that the doctor has everything that they need. Now doctors, that doesn't mean you get to chat all day and blame it on the assistants. means you've got to follow their lead and you've got to train your assistants in what that needs to look like. And then your assistants train you and how they're going to do it. So you've to find a really great assistant or train a really great assistant to understand that and get it.   They're out there and they're freaking amazing. But the biggest piece there I think to speak to right is the control factor. What can you what aspect of control in this problem do you have? And if the problem is, is your case acceptance is not high enough. It's not always more calls you guys, it might be. But my goal as a treatment coordinator is that I don't have calls to make. So if there are a lot of calls to make, I usually tell practices if you've got a ton of money and outstanding treatment,   That's not actually your issue. Your issue is why aren't they accepting treatment planning? Why are they going on to a list to be called? So if you're like hammering calls, hammering calls, hammering calls, and that's the only thing you're focusing on, you're missing a huge aspect of case acceptance because there's a piece there that's not being hit on. And typically it's like that tit for tat space of like, well, he did this or she did this or hygienist did this, dental assistants aren't stepping up. Like, wait, how can I?   control the narrative and build a habit, form a habit out of this. So how can I get the support from my team? That comes down to I think, Britt, you nailed this of like, what do you want? So doctors, a limited exam, this is the one that gets the most wild because it could be anything. We don't know what the patient's coming in for. What are the three to five things, things of information, pieces of information that you want for every limited exam, right? Are they taking any medication?   Is the medication helping on a scale of one to 10? What does the pain feel like? When did it start? What have you done to try to help it so far? And then caveat, if it's a patient of record, did we diagnose something there, right? So like those are, that's the same thing for all exams. How can my team preheat my patient and support me in that? And then speaking to the problem, going back to the Grand Canyon, you know,   Britt (20:08) I'm sorry.   The Dental A Team (20:23) purse piece there, excuse me, the Grand Canyon piece there is how can we make sure that we're finding that perfect piece and we're not giving too much information overwhelming them and confusing them, but we're not oversimplifying where it's like, you need a phrenectomy and a triple crown and whatever, like these crazy words that they're just like glazed over, yeah, okay, and then we're wondering why they didn't accept, you gotta find that perfect piece in the middle.   Britt (20:40) Yes.   The Dental A Team (20:49) your support team, I think can help find that too. Because Britt, I'm sure there have been plenty of times where you're like, hey, this guy is like an in and out, like he just wants the information and then he'll ask questions. But then you probably had the ones too, where it's like, they want all the details. I've given them a ton. And we're going to pass it off because those ones, right, are the ones that get pretty lengthy.   Britt (21:09) Yeah, and I know right in my personality, I am a detailed person. I like to understand all the things, but that is not everyone. And so surely I need to be aware of that. And then yes, I've got whatever you guys want in your process, right of how we talk about things when we follow the same process, we speak the same language, right? It makes everybody's life a lot easier and it makes us come across also more confident and polished to those patients so that they   understand, believe in, are ready to do the treatment that they need to take care of their oral health. But I think along with that is making sure that we are able to, ⁓ I don't know, just have it be really nice and smooth for that patient and be on point and adjust when needed for personality, right? So like I can identify and see pretty quickly someone who loves the details or I'm like, great, I'm gonna   I'm gonna make sure I give them the why. I still don't wanna spend waste time on unnecessary details, right? But I'm gonna make sure I give them the why. And you're right, my deep personalities, I mean, you guys, worked in Arlington, Virginia for how long? It is a big city and they are movers and shakers and you wanna talk about a straight personality, they've got them. So I'm like, I need to not make this person super annoyed by me. Here's the nuts and bolts. What questions do you have? Doctor will come in and let you know. Like keep it nice and simple.   The Dental A Team (22:33) Yeah.   Yeah, yeah, I agree. think ⁓ these are all great points. I love everything you said, Britt, and coming from a hygienist mindset is perfect because that's doctors like that's what you need. You need a hygienist that's thinking that way too. Like, what does this patient need? How can I help the doctor to be successful in this exam and get that doctor going because a hygienist job, is patient care, education, and keeping on a schedule. And the control factor   a lot of hygienists will throw their hands in the air and be like, you know, I'm late again. Yeah, I'm late, but it's because well, how did how could I have adjusted what I did to ensure that we stayed on time so that that didn't happen? So I totally agree.   Britt (23:14) Yeah, that's where   yeah, guide them you guys at if a doctor feels supported, right, and they feel like you've got it handled to where they can follow your lead for hygienist and assistance. They will do it like again, they they're watching how many columns and you're in charge of one or two, right? So like they've got a lot going on in their head if they can trust that their team is there to take care of them and guide them to the right thing in conversation and   assistance, a great assistant tells the doctor where to go and where they need to be right now. It makes everybody's life a lot easier, most importantly, doctor. And doctor, if your team is not doing that, I would say look at do they know what the expectation is? Do they know what they can do? And then are you allowing them to do it?   The Dental A Team (24:03) Yeah, I think that's a great those are your great action items right there. Like what do want this to look like? Are you allowing them to do that? And what can you do to build those habits between yourself and the team to get those pieces going? So problem solution consequence always you guys that's easy. We all know that make sure you're speaking to the problem more than the solution. And getting that solidified. Make sure that those handoffs are there and that you guys are you guys are getting the information that you want. If you're not then ask for it just build them a template of what   Britt (24:06) you   The Dental A Team (24:32) information you want to get and then make sure that you're using it. You're taking it right. You're not just barreling in and the the team should know like hey grab the doctor's attention right away an introduction allowing for an introduction and the team needing to do an introduction will help save that every single time. So I love this Brett. Thank you. Thank you for doing the Grand Canyon first that you can let us know what it's like. I appreciate you.   Britt (24:55) I'll film.   The Dental A Team (24:57) I appreciate your input on this. You guys go increase your case acceptance. Again, if you're making massive amounts of calls, outgoing calls, try to fill a schedule and try to get the case acceptance, that means something internal prior to the patient's leaving is not working. There's a system, there's a step there that's not being dialed in. So look at the internal systems. Definitely always making calls, never forgetting about that, but the ultimate goal is that there's not calls to make.   Go get higher case acceptance. Britt, thank you so much for being here with me today. I hope you guys enjoyed this content. Listen back, take notes, do whatever you need to do.

Clay's conversation with writer Craig Childs of western Colorado. Childs is the author of more than a dozen books about America's backcountry. He's spent months, even years, exploring the Grand Canyon and a hundred lesser but magnificent canyons in desert country. Childs has been a river runner, a guide, and a consultant, but mostly, he is a writer of beautiful, spare, sometimes mystical prose about the Colorado Plateau. Clay and Craig talked about how he became a writer, about taking risks in the backcountry, being lost, and getting oneself lost. They also discuss the great 19th-century explorer John Wesley Powell, Henry David Thoreau, and Edward Abbey — the author of the enormously influential book Desert Solitaire. Childs is currently wandering through mountain lion country in western Colorado, trying to understand the ways of these magnificent creatures. You'll love this quiet discussion of things unrelated to America's current politics. This interview was recorded March 20, 2025.

Monday on Police Pod Talk you won't want to miss this jaw-dropping episode as special guest Scott Wells takes us deep into the heart of the Grand Canyon and into the most chilling experience of his life. What began as a peaceful 5-day camping trip with two close friends quickly turned into a real-life horror story when the trio crossed paths with a strange, enigmatic loner known only as Condor Mark. His odd behavior and unsettling conversations grew darker by the day, and what seemed like paranoia at first soon became a fight for survival. Scott recounts the bizarre encounters, the moment fear took over, and how they managed to escape what they would later learn was a deadly situation. Because Condor Mark wasn't just another eccentric hiker… he was a wanted serial killer, and Scott and his friends had almost become his next victims. Tune in to hear the full story raw, real, and absolutely terrifying. Only on Police Pod Talk.  You think you've heard it all? Think again.

Depois de um longo tempo em silêncio, estou de volta. Esse é um episódio sobre recomeços.Nos últimos anos, vivi uma jornada intensa de dor, silêncio, introspecção e ressignificação. Nesse retorno, compartilho os motivos que me trouxeram de volta pra esse espaço de troca e conversa — que sempre foi tão especial pra mim.Falo sobre a importância de sair da zona de conforto, da beleza que podemos gerar no mundo mesmo em meio ao caos, e de como esse podcast também é um lugar de organização interna, de reflexão e de esperança.Divido também um poema autoral, Grand Canyon, que nasceu em uma visita ao Grand Canyon e dessa caminhada por dentro de mim — um encontro com aquilo que é bruto, mas que também pulsa vida e possibilidade de beleza.Tem um Grand Canyon esperando por nós. Vem comigo nessa jornada.INSTA: @coisas.sobre.voce

By Davy Crockett In May, thousands of hikers and ultrarunners make their pilgrimage to the Grand Canyon to hike or run across this amazing wonder of the world. I have been producing short videos for the new Grand Canyon History YouTube channel. I thought it would be interesting to also publish these as a podcast episode for you to listen to.  This is part two. The video versions of these shorts, of course, have many historic pictures to see. Please subscribe to that channel. Some of these shorts come from my best-selling book, Grand Canyon Rim to Rim History. You can get my book on Amazon.

In the fall of 2015, photographer Pete McBride and writer Kevin Fedarko embarked on a journey to rally support to protect one of our most awe-inspiring national treasures: the Grand Canyon. Their method? A 700+ mile sectional thru-hike of the wilderness that lies between the rim and the river. They knew the trek would challenge them, but they had no idea how quickly and completely the canyon would leave them demoralized and physically destroyed. The two of them were contemplating giving up, when, as Kevin puts it, ‘A miracle happened'. Today, a story about three people who have dedicated the better part of their lives to developing a unique skill–and a project so complicated and important that it required their cumulative experience to pull it off. It's also a story about friendship, and how friends working together for a common goal can lead to something greater than the sum of its parts. In addition to writing A Walk in the Park, Kevin also wrote The Emerald Mile. We talked with him about that process in The Threshold Moment (Apple | Spotify)  Watch some of the highlights of Kevin and Peter's hike.

For over fifty years, Cisco has been piloting rafts down the Rio Grande and sharing captivating stories around New Mexico campfires. They call him a living legend. It all started with tree riding (yes, tree riding), tequila, and a $2/hour carpentry gig. Facebook   Twitter   Instagram Love the show? Subscribe,  rate, review, and share! Sign up for my Newsletter  HERE I'd love to hear your feedback about the show! You can contact me here:  rick@theoutdoorbizpodcast.com What Happened: I once thought success had to come from tech startups, corner offices, and polished résumés. But then I listened to Cisco's story—this guy who started out rafting New Mexico's Rio Grande for $25 a day, with a sombrero that flopped like a soggy tortilla every time it rained. One day, after winning a state dance contest (both kinds: country AND western), he walks into a hat shop and leaves with a five-inch bull rider felt hat. That hat wasn't just style—it was survival. When waves from the Taos Box smacked you in the face mid-rapid, that hat kept your eyes dry and your focus sharp. Cisco didn't just ride rapids. He rode the changing tides of culture, climate, and conservation, using his raft—and his stories—to teach generations about stewardship, resilience, and why you never, ever ride a pine tree like a bucking bronco (ask the guy with the fused spine). Principle: Success isn't always loud. Sometimes it's a black hat, a steady current, and the quiet consistency of showing up for 50 years. It's not about chasing trends—it's about choosing a life that aligns with your spirit, your landscape, and the legacy you want to leave behind. Transition: The truth is, a lot of us are paddling like mad trying to keep up—with tech, with trends, with whatever success is "supposed" to look like. But if you've ever felt like you're not made for that pace, if cubicles make your soul itch, or if you've ever dreamed of more meaning in your work… you're not alone. That's Why: That's why this episode with Cisco isn't just a nostalgia trip—it's a reminder that there's a different kind of success. One rooted in place, in culture, in connection. This episode shows how adventure, storytelling, and soulful business can intertwine in the most unexpected, enduring ways. Call to Action: If you've ever felt like your path doesn't fit the traditional mold, listen to this episode. It's time to stop chasing someone else's idea of success—and start crafting your own story.

It is hard to imagine life without sunglasses. So, who came up with the idea – and when? We begin this episode by going way back to the very first pair of sunglasses and I'll reveal how our modern-day sunglasses came about not all that long ago. ago. http://www.glasseshistory.com/glasses-history/history-of-sunglasses/ We have all felt that sense of wonder. It's that feeling you get when you first see the Grand Canyon or an incredible sunset or the stars above against a really dark sky. Sadly, we often lose our sense of wonder as we get older. Still, your sense of wonder is worth holding on to and developing further, according to Monica Parker. She has spent many years helping people discover how to lead lives full of wonder. Monica is author of the book The Power of Wonder (https://amzn.to/3I5F5Y4). Listen as she explains the amazing benefits of finding wonder in your world. What is money and how does it work? It may seem like a simple question yet, there is a lot of misunderstanding about it. One example is that some people worry about the federal government running out of money. What if the government can't pay its bills? Well, that can't happen according to L. Randall Wray, a professor of Economics at Bard College, Senior Scholar at the Levy Economics Institute and author of Money for Beginners: An Illustrated Guide (https://amzn.to/42BuPPG).
