One of the biggest misconceptions I see when it comes to making money is the belief that you need to start from scratch. A new certification, a brand new idea, or a completely different skill set. But the truth is, most of us already have everything we need. The real problem is not a lack of knowledge, it is not knowing how to package and position what we already know.In this episode, I break down five simple and practical ways to turn your existing skills, experiences, and knowledge into income. Whether you are in between roles, exploring a side hustle, or just trying to make extra money right now, this episode is your reminder that there is value in what you already bring to the table.I also walk through a key mindset shift. You do not need to be the top expert. You just need to be a few steps ahead of the person you are helping. People are not just paying for information. They are paying for clarity, speed, guidance, and confidence. And that is where your opportunity lies.Main TakeawaysYou do not need new skills or certifications to start making moneyThere are five core ways to monetize what you already knowPeople pay for clarity, speed, and guidance, not just expertiseStart with one path and keep it simple instead of trying everythingHighlights Include00:00 – The biggest misconception about making money01:30 – Why you already have valuable, monetizable knowledge02:00 – The 5 ways to make money with what you know03:00 – The mindset shift you need before starting04:00 – Service and coaching as the fastest path to income06:00 – Done-for-you services and why people pay for convenience08:00 – Creating simple digital products that sell10:30 – Workshops and why people pay for real-time learning13:00 – Why reminders are key when selling anything15:00 – Using content to create opportunities and income18:00 – How to use AI without losing your voice21:00 – Why you should pick ONE path and start nowWatch & ListenWatch this episode on YouTube and listen on all podcast platforms:Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/side-hustle-pro/id1126021323Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/13qDj08lBR4ymzGhXIKy8tYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/sidehustleproAnnouncementsIf you're ready to build a podcast that becomes your exit plan from your 9-to-5, sign up for my next live class: Start the Podcast That Builds Your Exit PlanSave your seat here.

Great onboarding does more than teach a new team member how to do a job. It creates clarity, connection, and a path toward long-term success in the practice. In this episode, Kirk Behrendt talks with Jenni Poulos, ACT Dental coach, about why retention begins before a team member's first day and how a structured onboarding process can help new hires become confident, independent contributors. You'll learn the essential elements of effective onboarding, how to create a support system for new hires, and how to use the 333 framework to guide development through the first three days, three weeks, and three months.For a practical roadmap to improve onboarding and team retention, listen to Episode 1106 of The Best Practices Show!Main Takeaways:Retention begins during onboarding, when new team members start deciding whether the practice matches what they were promised during the hiring process.New hires need clarity around their responsibilities, measures of success, decision-making authority, and where to go for help.Belonging is created through intentional preparation, including having systems, logins, trainers, and team members ready before the new hire arrives.Shadowing alone is not a complete training process because new hires need a structured development plan rather than learning only from what happens during the day.A small committee of leaders, trainers, and culture-focused team members can provide different types of support and feedback throughout onboarding.The 333 framework establishes milestones for a new hire's first three days, three weeks, and three months, with increasing levels of competency and independence.Consistent feedback throughout the first 90 days ensures that expectations are clear and prevents the formal review from being the first time a new team member hears about a concern.Episode Chapters:00:00 Why great onboarding supports long-term retention02:11 Onboarding should be an intentional experience04:07 The questions new team members are asking08:12 Defining roles, responsibilities, and measures of success12:59 Why shadowing alone is not training14:03 Creating a committee of success and normalizing feedback16:00 Introducing the 333 onboarding framework20:39 What success should look like after three weeks28:00 Final thoughts and the 333 Onboarding GuideGuest Bio:Jenni brings to dental teams a literal lifetime of experience in dentistry. As the daughter and sister of periodontists and a dental hygienist, she has been working in many facets of the dental world since she first held a summer job turning rooms and pouring models at the age of 12. Now, with over 10 years of experience in managing and leading a large periodontal practice, she has a firm grasp on what it takes to run a thriving business. Her passion for organizational health and culture has been a driving force behind her coaching career. She has witnessed firsthand how creating an aligned and engaged team will take a practice to levels of success that they never believed possible!Episode Resources:333 Onboarding Guide: https://hub.smilesource.com/c/resources/3-3-3-onboarding-modelMore Helpful Links for a Better Practice & a Better Life:Contact Gina to learn more about ACT: gina@actdental.comThe Best Practices Show: https://www.actdental.com/podcast/Smile Source Community Hub: https://www.actdental.com/community-hubUpcoming Events & Workshops: https://www.actdental.com/events/Smile Source: https://www.smilesource.com/Subscribe on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.comSubscribe on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com

In Sachsen-Anhalt findet eins der größten queeren Festivals statt: das WHOLE - mit Musik, Kunst und Workshops. Aber kann das an einem Ort gut gehen, wo die AfD gerade die stärkste Kraft geworden ist? Dimi war für euch dort.

Ich feiere Episode 300 mit meiner langjährigen Business Buddy Daniela Vanzetta. Wir sprechen über unseren Weg als Unternehmerinnen, warum echte Freundschaften im Business so wertvoll sind und wie feminine Energie zum Erfolg führt.

In this solocast I talk about it is often easier to give love, kindness, support, etc., than to receive them for a mix of psychological, emotional, and cultural reasons. Giving seems to feel more natural and rewarding for many people, while receiving requires vulnerability that can feel uncomfortable or evening threatening. And yet both giving and receiving are essential for healthy relationships and well-being. I also tell of a recent experience that gave me a chance to be vulnerable and receive love, support and kindness.  Let's Talk About It!  Thanks for tuning into this week's episode of Relationships!

In this episode, we explore life choices, purpose, healing, and self-discovery, and how the decisions we make — especially during struggle — quietly shape who we become.Through open, real conversation, we unpack how challenges influence identity, why pain and growth are deeply connected, and how conscious choice becomes a turning point in healing and self-understanding. We explore what it means to live a “normal” life versus a meaningful one, and how emotional expression, reflection, and self-honesty create resilience over time.The conversation moves into deeper territory around purpose, polarity, and inner growth — examining how joy and pain coexist, how self-love develops through lived experience, and why meaning is often found not in answers, but in engagement with life as it unfolds.This episode is for anyone interested in personal growth, healing, self-discovery, purpose, emotional resilience, and conscious living — especially if you're questioning your path or seeking deeper clarity in everyday challenges.WATCH THE EPISODE ON YOUTUBEhttps://youtube.com/yeskingoliverFREE PDFs & GUIDESWant practical tools to help you take greater control of your mind, habits, sleep, lifestyle and direction?I've created 6 FREE guides covering neurodivergence, sleep, overthinking, lifestyle change, emotional work and taking control of your life.Download them FREE here:https://talkwitholiver.com/free-pdfTOURETTE'S, OCD, ADHD & NEURODIVERSE RESET10 practical lifestyle changes I used to move from daily tics, overwhelm and compulsive patterns towards greater calm, clarity and self-trust.60-DAY HUMAN RESETA structured day-by-day reset covering sleep, movement, nutrition and nervous-system practices.AWAKEN60A 60-step guide to taking greater control of your brain and life by working on your environment, sleep, body, diet, vitamins, mind and daily actions.TIMELINE60Walk back through your life year by year, explore difficult memories and work through emotions and experiences you may still be carrying.SLEEP60A 16-step natural sleep protocol designed to help reset your sleep routine and circadian rhythm, fall asleep more easily and sleep more deeply.THOUGHT SWATTINGA practical method for getting thoughts out of your head, organising them, dealing with the past, taking action on the future and reducing repetitive mental loops.GET ALL 6 FREE GUIDES:https://talkwitholiver.com/free-pdfFREE BUSINESS MENTORSHIP & COACHINGWant to ask me questions about business, mindset, productivity, lifestyle or personal growth?Join my FREE online or in-person mentorship and coaching sessions.Visit:https://talkwitholiver.comClick the “Eventbrite Online & In-Person Workshops” link to see upcoming sessions.COMMUNITY & CONNECTIONLooking to connect with aligned people, exchange healing services, find retreats and festivals, or plan conscious travel?https://www.findmytribe.orgSTAY CONNECTEDInstagram:https://www.instagram.com/yeskingoliverFree PDFs & Guides:https://talkwitholiver.com/free-pdfWebsite, Free Course & Workshops:https://talkwitholiver.comREFLECTIONWhat part of this conversation made you reflect on your own life choices or sense of purpose?TIMESTAMPS00:00 – Introduction: the power of choice01:00 – Understanding self and the human experience02:00 – “Normal” life vs deeper fulfilment04:00 – Emotional expression and healing06:00 – Life purpose and meaning08:00 – Polarity: pain and joy10:00 – Healing and transformation12:00 – Building resilience15:00 – Spirituality and self-reflection20:00 – Final reflections and takeawaysGUEST BIOHannah Singer explores intentional living, self-discovery, and inner growth through a heart-centred lens.

Achtung (Werbung in eigener Sache):  Meine Bücher: „Die perfekte Employee Journey & Experience": https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-3-662-71420-1 „Die perfekte Candidate Journey & Experience": https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-3-662-66875-7 Mein Gast: Prof. Dr. Florian Kunze Professor Florian Kunze zählt zu den führenden HR- und Arbeitswelt-Vordenkern in Deutschland und wurde als einer der „40 führenden HR-Köpfe" ausgezeichnet. Er leitet das Future of Work Lab an der Universität Konstanz, was u.a. die Konstanzer Homeoffice-Studie und die KI-Studie jährlich durchführt und so für aktuelle Ergebnisse zu diesen Themen sorgt. Insgesamt beschäftigt sich Florian intensiv mit den Veränderungen der Arbeitswelt – insbesondere mit den Auswirkungen neuer Arbeitsformen auf Führung, Zusammenarbeit, Produktivität und Unternehmenskultur. Seine Forschung wurde in mehr als 80 wissenschaftlichen Publikationen veröffentlicht und mehrfach mit renommierten Preisen ausgezeichnet. Dabei verbindet er wissenschaftliche Exzellenz mit einem klaren Praxisbezug für Unternehmen und Führungskräfte. In seinen Keynotes, Vorträgen und Workshops gelingt es ihm, neueste Forschungserkenntnisse verständlich und praxisnah aufzubereiten und konkrete Impulse für Führungskräfte und Mitarbeitende abzuleiten. Thema der Folge: In dieser Folge 467 spreche ich mit Prof. Dr. Florian Kunze über die aktuellen Ergebnisse der Konstanzer KI-Studie 2026 und die Frage, wie stark Künstliche Intelligenz tatsächlich bereits in der deutschen Arbeitswelt angekommen ist. Herzlichen Dank an Florian für den spannenden und aktuellen Input zum Thema! Die wichtigsten Erkenntnisse: 38 Prozent der Beschäftigten nutzen KI am Arbeitsplatz, bei Bürobeschäftigten sind es 49 Prozent. Nur 23 Prozent erkennen bislang einen spürbaren Beitrag von KI zur Wertschöpfung ihres Unternehmens. 45 Prozent der KI-Nutzenden arbeiten zumindest teilweise mit Tools, die nicht offiziell vom Arbeitgeber bereitgestellt wurden – mit entsprechenden Herausforderungen für Datenschutz, Governance und Compliance. Unternehmen müssen aus individueller KI-Nutzung organisationales Lernen machen und den offenen Austausch über sinnvolle Anwendungen fördern. Der Aufbau von KI-Kompetenzen wird zu einer zentralen Aufgabe für Unternehmen und Personalentwicklung. Dabei geht es nicht nur um die Bedienung von Tools, sondern auch um die kritische Bewertung der Ergebnisse. 40 Prozent erwarten negative Auswirkungen von KI auf den Arbeitsmarkt insgesamt, aber nur 17 Prozent fürchten um den eigenen Arbeitsplatz. Unser Fazit: Erfolgreiche KI-Nutzung braucht mehr als gute Tools. Entscheidend sind eine klare Strategie, geeignete Rahmenbedingungen, gezielter Kompetenzaufbau und eine Unternehmenskultur, in der KI offen und gemeinsam weiterentwickelt wird.   #GainTalents #KünstlicheIntelligenz #KIamArbeitsplatz #AIacceptance #Arbeitswelt #FutureOfWork #Personalentwicklung #Leadership Shownote-Links Prof. Dr. Florian Kunze https://www.linkedin.com/in/professorkunze/ Konstanzer KI-Studie: https://kops.uni-konstanz.de/server/api/core/bitstreams/ce780763-4f69-4f56-a2a5-8d27033d5691/content   Links Hans-Heinz Wisotzky:  Website: https://www.gaintalents.com/podcast und https://www.gaintalents.com/blog Podcast: https://www.gaintalents.com/podcast Bücher: Neu (jetzt überall zu kaufen): Die perfekte Employee Journey und Experience https://link.springer.com/book/9783662714195 Erste Buch: Die perfekte Candidate Journey und Experience https://www.gaintalents.com/buch-die-perfekte-candidate-journey-und-experience LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/hansheinzwisotzky/ LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/company/gaintalents XING https://www.xing.com/profile/HansHeinz_Wisotzky/cv Facebook https://www.facebook.com/GainTalents

Are you collecting everything your practice produces, and do you know how much dentistry you are writing off before those dollars ever become collectible? In this episode, Kirk Behrendt talks with Carlie Einarson, an ACT Dental coach, about the difference between gross collection rate and net collection rate and what each metric reveals about your practice. You'll learn how to calculate both rates, identify gaps in your collection systems and business model, accurately track write-offs and adjustments, and use your production and collection reports to establish a clear financial baseline. To understand which collection metrics matter and what your numbers are telling you, listen to Episode 1105 of The Best Practices Show!Main Takeaways:Gross collection rate measures collections divided by gross production and reflects how much of total production ultimately becomes cash.Net collection rate measures collections divided by net production and shows how effectively the practice collects the dollars it expects to receive after adjustments and write-offs.A low net collection rate can point to gaps involving patient balances, insurance accounts receivable, financial arrangements, same-day collections, or inconsistent collection processes.A strong net collection rate paired with a low gross collection rate can indicate significant write-offs from PPO adjustments, discounts, redo dentistry, membership plans, or other adjustments.Practices should bill their full fees and accurately categorize write-offs and adjustments to understand the financial impact of their business model.A practice should aim to collect 100% of its net production because net production represents the collectible dollars owed to the practice.Reviewing gross production, net production, and collections over the previous six to 12 months provides a baseline for identifying problems with write-offs, adjustments, collections, and accounts receivable.Episode Chapters:00:00 Metric Monday intro02:02 Defining gross and net collection rates.04:13 What a low net collection rate indicates.05:17 What a low gross collection rate indicates.06:00 Using the numbers to understand your practice.06:54 What strong collection performance looks like.08:11 Accurate fee schedules and write-off tracking.10:13 Calculating gross and net collection rates.12:13 Why practices should collect 100% of net production.13:25 Final tips and wrap upGuest Bio/Guest Resources:Carlie Einarson is a lead practice coach who has a passion for helping others succeed in the dental field.

Is real forgiveness actually possible in a marriage, or does it just leave you vulnerable to being hurt again?In this powerful episode of Married and Connected, Kameran is joined for a fourth time by human development expert, TEDx speaker, bestselling author, and creator of Emotional Sobriety, Dr. Andrea Vitz. Together, they tear down the myths surrounding forgiveness, resentment, and relationship repair.Dr. Vitz shares an exclusive preview of her upcoming book, The Redemption Dare, breaking down why true forgiveness isn't about ignoring boundaries or enduring abuse—it's a supernatural strength that dismantles the "victim/villain" loop and opens the door for real, lasting change. If you've been holding onto bitterness, constantly bringing up past mistakes, or feeling stuck in a cycle of emotional reactivity, this conversation will give you the exact framework to reclaim your peace and rebuild trust.In this episode, you'll discover:The "Redemption Dare": Why true forgiveness requires daring your partner (and yourself) to step into a new, redeemed identity rather than jailing them in their past mistakes.Emotional Sobriety vs. Emotional Intoxication: How negative emotional reactions cloud judgment and keep couples trapped in destructive, childish "tit-for-tat" arguments.The 3-Step Framework for Forgiveness: How to move from resentment to peace using Humility, Emotional Sobriety, and Discernment.Unconditional Love vs. Unconditional Attention: Understanding the vital distinction between forgiving someone and allowing toxic or abusive behavior to continue.The Emotional Sobriety Spectrum: How Dr. Vitz measures internal composure (from Level 1 reactivity to Level 10 mastery) inside her Composure Challenge Gauntlet.The Power of Mercy: How choosing not to strike back in triggering moments rewires your brain and restores safety in your relationship.Links & Resources Mentioned in This Episode:

«Potzmusig» besucht das erste Eidgenössische Jugendjodelfest in Grindelwald BE und trifft auf Jodelnachwuchs aus der ganzen Schweiz. Neben jungen Stimmen und gelebter Tradition gibt es im Restaurant Grund auch viel abwechslungsreiche Musik aus der Region. In diesem Jahr fand erstmals ein Eidgenössisches Jugendjodelfest statt. Das Fest für die 6- bis 25-jährigen Jodlerinnen, Fahnenschwinger und Alphornspielerinnen wurde in der wunderschönen Berglandschaft von Grindelwald ausgetragen. Passender hätte die Kulisse für diese Premiere kaum sein können. Mit einem eigenen Jodelfest für die junge Generation soll der Nachwuchs gestärkt und gefördert werden. Kinder und Jugendliche, die nach ihrer Zeit in einem Kinder- oder Jugendchor austreten, sollen den Anschluss an das Brauchtum nicht verlieren, sondern weiterhin aktiv bleiben An aktivem Nachwuchs fehlte es am Wochenende vom 11. bis 13. September jedenfalls nicht: Über 1000 Aktive nahmen am ersten Eidgenössischen Jugendjodelfest teil. Sie sangen und jodelten, schwangen Fahnen, tanzten, spielten Alphorn und nahmen an verschiedenen Workshops teil. Neben den Eindrücken vom Fest gibt es in «Potzmusig» auch viel urchige Musik aus dem Restaurant Grund in Grindelwald BE zu hören. Nicolas Senn macht mit «Potzmusig» Halt bei der Bahnstation, von wo aus die Reise hinauf aufs Jungfraujoch führt. Musikalisch mit dabei ist das Trio Bärglistock aus Grindelwald BE mit urchiger Schwyzerörgelimusik von Godi Schmid. Das Handorgelduo Niesefründe aus Aeschiried BE spielt eine Komposition von Lorenz Giovanelli, und die Schwyzerörgeli-Formation Ländler.CH ist mit dem Titel «Für üses Beo» zu hören. Weiter spielt Akkordeonist Kurt Schmid gemeinsam mit Fredy Reichmuth, dessen Tochter Silja und Fritz Fuchs in einer Ad-hoc-Formation. Marion und Lorenz Willi bilden zusammen mit Christian Zurbrügg das Terzett Willi-Zurbrügg. Beim letztjährigen Folklorenachwuchs-Wettbewerb belegten die jungen Jodler den dritten Platz. Mit ihrer Interpretation von «Uf der Höchi» von Paul Meier sorgten sie bei «Potzmusig» für einen besonderen Moment – und bei so manchen Gästen im Restaurant Grund für Hühnerhaut. Emotional wird es auch beim Auftritt des Chinderchörli Grindelwald. Die Lokalmatadoren singen «Mys Älpli» von der einheimischen Komponistin Margrith Inäbnit. Die jungen Sänger durften nicht nur bei «Potzmusig» auftreten, sondern waren am ersten Eidgenössischen Jugendjodelfest gleich mehrfach im Einsatz: Neben ihrem Wettbewerbsvortrag übernahmen sie auch verschiedene Helfereinsätze. Auch dank des Engagements des Chinderchörli Grindelwald wurde das erste Eidgenössische Jugendjodelfest zu einem vollen Erfolg.

As a dentist, you can present the best treatment plan—and still lose case acceptance if your team “translates” it differently after you leave the room. In this episode, Kirk Behrendt sits down with Debra Engelhardt-Nash, educator and founder of the Nash Institute for Dental Learning, to unpack what's really being said in the operatory when you're not there.You'll learn how belief systems and “wallet biopsies” derail care, how to position assistants as clinical endorsers (not counterpoints), and how to train communication so patients hear one consistent message. Listen to Episode 1028 of The Best Practices Show!Main Takeaways:Team members can unintentionally undermine treatment when they assume patients can't afford or won't value ideal care.A simple reset is asking the assistant, “If this were your mouth, what would you rather have?” and aligning the recommendation accordingly.The assistant's role is to create a “perception of quality” even when the doctor is not present.Standing physically with (not across from) the doctor signals unity and increases patient confidence in the plan.Too many treatment options create confusion, and a confused mind often defaults to “no.”Doctors should delegate parts of the explanation intentionally so assistants can reinforce the why, answer questions, and help the patient process fees.Communication must be trained and rehearsed; it won't improve by osmosis after a course, study club, or podcast.Episode Chapters:00:00 Intro01:11 Meet Debra Nash02:10 Rural Practice Dilemma04:41 If It Were Your Mouth06:24 Wallet Biopsies06:32 Dermatology Delegation Story10:09 Moment of Truth After Doctor Leaves10:36 Standing With The Doctor12:03 Jargon And Too Many Choices15:53 Training Without Scripts17:43 Team as Patient Advocates18:10 Veneers Parade of Shades18:46 Investing in Staff Smiles20:08 Retention and Loyalty Boost20:41 Empathy vs Sympathy23:57 Stop Apologizing for Care25:37 Recall Value and Exams26:23 Quality Without Doctor27:53 Train Communication Skills28:55 Programs and Contact Info30:47 Final Takeaways and WrapGuest Bio/Guest Resources:Debra Engelhardt-Nash has been in dentistry since 1985 as a consultant, trainer, author and speaker.

Mhegan Niez is CTO at PadyaKalikasan by iKilos Bayugan. PadyaKalikasan is iKilos Bayugan's flagship campaign to build a bicycle-friendly community in Bayugan City, Agusan del Sur, as part of the youth organization's broader push for climate-resilient, low-carbon development. The initiative encompasses equipping the community with bicycle repair stations and bike parks, integrating environmental awareness through film, and establishing networks with the local government to implement policies for dedicated bike lanes, alongside integrating a bike-sharing system on a university campus. Its flagship implementation, launched through a partnership with Caraga State University with support from the Korean Safety and Environment Foundation, introduced a campus-wide bike-sharing system alongside plans for electric vehicles, public transport partnerships, and pedestrian-friendly infrastructure to cut carbon emissions and improve air quality. The program has already shown measurable impact, with 906 recorded rides in its first weeks translating to over 900 hours of travel and the avoidance of roughly 36 liters of gasoline consumption and 0.0845 metric tons of CO₂ emissions — a track record recognized when PadyaKalikasan was cited at Quezon City's National Bike Day 2025 Awarding Ceremony.

Was hat dein Körper mit deinem Business, deinen Beziehungen und den Entscheidungen zu tun, die du jeden Tag triffst? Wahrscheinlich mehr, als du denkst und gleichzeitig ganz anders, als wir es oft gelernt haben. In dieser Folge spricht Yavi darüber, warum unser Körper in jedem Gespräch, jeder Beziehung und jeder Verhandlung mit am Tisch sitzt. Warum wir einen Preis glasklar im Kopf haben und ihn plötzlich rechtfertigen, eine Grenze kennen und sie im entscheidenden Moment doch wieder aufweichen. Und warum zwei Menschen nie nur mit Worten kommunizieren. Es geht um Nervensystem und Selbstführung, um Anziehung und die Frage, ob Schmetterlinge wirklich immer Schmetterlinge sind. Um Lust als kreative Energie, Sinnlichkeit, Weiblichkeit und darum, wie viel Lebensenergie verloren geht, wenn wir unseren Körper permanent von außen betrachten, statt ihn wirklich zu bewohnen. Eine Folge über einen Körper, der so viel mehr ist als sein Aussehen. Und über die vielleicht viel spannendere Frage: Wie würde sich dein Leben verändern, wenn du nicht länger nur einen Körper haben möchtest, den du magst, sondern einen Körper bewohnst, in dem du wirklich leben kannst? Was ist dein größtes Takeaway?

For high-achieving women, that belief can run deep. We're taught to be capable, composed, productive, and independent, and to keep going no matter what. But what happens when “I can handle it” becomes burnout? In this episode of Workday Playdate, Meghan French Dunbar joins Erin for a candid conversation about burnout, leadership, vulnerability, women at work, and what it really takes to build humane workplaces. Drawing from her experience as a founder, CEO, and mother, Meghan shares the personal wake-up calls that forced her to rethink what success and leadership actually mean. Together, Erin and Meghan unpack chronic busyness, workplace vulnerability, trust, overwork, and the pressure to be an unbreakable leader. They explore how small shifts in the way we lead can create more sustainable work rhythms and teams. Inside This Episode: When Work Becomes Your Identity: Meghan shares the airplane story, miscarriage, and burnout experiences that forced her to confront the personal cost of being an “unbreakable” leader. The Myth of the Busy Season: What happens when “I'm just in a busy season” becomes your permanent state? Meghan explains how chronic busyness can become a system—not just a season. Vulnerability Builds Trust: Discover why being honest about struggles can actually make leaders more trustworthy and help teams feel safer opening up. Women Don't Have to Do It All: Erin and Meghan unpack the pressure high-achieving women face to be endlessly capable—and why asking for help doesn't make you a burden. Rethinking Leadership: Move beyond the superhero leader. Meghan explores a healthier blend of decisiveness, empathy, compassion, listening, and vulnerability. What to Do Now: Question Your “Busy Season”: Is this actually a season—or has chronic busyness become your normal? Identify one expectation or habit that's keeping you stuck in overload. Let Someone In: Share one honest thing with your team that you might normally keep hidden. Vulnerability doesn't mean oversharing—it means letting people see the human behind the role. Ask for Help: Identify one thing you're carrying alone and invite someone in. Strong leadership isn't about proving you can do everything yourself. It's about creating a culture where no one has to. About the Guest Meghan French Dunbar is a purpose-driven business leader, author, speaker, and former co-founder and CEO of Conscious Company Media, the first nationally distributed print magazine focused on purpose-driven business in the U.S. Over the course of her career, she has interviewed more than 1,000 leaders about what it takes to build businesses that create meaningful impact. Her book, This Isn't Working, explores why traditional approaches to work are failing people—and what it looks like to build careers, companies, and lives that actually lift people up. Today, Meghan helps exceptional organizations develop narrative strategies that stand out, and she hosts Unbehaved, a podcast featuring leaders who are challenging the old rules of work and business.

Dentists have more access to health information, supplements, technology, and wellness strategies than ever, but knowing what to do does not guarantee that those habits will become sustainable. In this episode, Kirk Behrendt talks with Dr. Uche Odiatu, a dentist with more than 30 years of experience, about why mindset matters more than chasing the latest health hack. You will learn how to build sustainable health habits, rethink recovery and performance, protect cognitive function, create a healthier relationship with exercise and nutrition, and approach the second half of life with a different perspective. For practical ways to turn health knowledge into consistent action, listen to Episode 1103 of The Best Practices Show!Main Takeaways:Knowledge creates potential, but meaningful change requires consistent implementation.Sustainable health depends on building habits that can be maintained rather than following an all-or-nothing approach.Spending time outside and supporting the body's natural light-dark cycle can become part of a dentist's daily health routine.Feeling worthy of good health can influence whether positive changes become lasting behaviors.Recovery, including sleep, quiet time, stretching, and intentional rest, is an important part of physical and mental performance.Dentists can improve their perspective by thinking about patients in terms of total health and long-term relationships rather than individual procedures.A healthier second half of life requires reconsidering how you train, eat, recover, work, and respond to challenges.Episode Chapters:00:00 Why mindset beats health hacks for dentists.03:09 Lifelong learning and maintaining curiosity.04:20 Knowledge versus implementation.05:52 What mindset means for dentists.10:07 Light exposure, sleep, and nighttime routines.12:30 Worthiness, health, and lasting behavior change.15:00 Mirror work and developing a healthier self-perception.16:00 The problem with presenting a perfect life.17:40 Why balanced living is more sustainable than an all-or-nothing approach.18:00 Exercise, overtraining, and long-term physical health.19:42 Barefoot shoes, foot health, and planning for later life.22:43 Rethinking patient relationships and lifetime value.25:00 Cognitive capacity, brain fog, and decision-making.28:45 Recovery and protecting your peace.30:05 Red light, stretching, gratitude, and post-workout recovery.32:44 A practical mindset treatment plan.37:49 Wrap up and resourcesGuest Bio/Guest Resources:Dr. Uche Odiatu has a DMD (Doctor of Dental Medicine).

How to stop caring what people think is something I used to think came with age, but it's really about confidence, self worth, and stakes changing over the years.

In this thought-provoking episode, Oliver is joined by Talyn Fiore, The Energy Alchemist, for a deep conversation about life purpose, relationships, childhood trauma, spirituality, self-discovery and learning to surrender to the unknown.They explore the idea that every decision we make can reroute the direction of our lives, and how experiences that initially feel like setbacks may eventually become some of our greatest opportunities for growth.Talyn shares her perspective on relationships and how unresolved childhood experiences can influence who we become, the people we attract and the patterns we repeat. They discuss recognising these patterns, becoming more self-aware and breaking cycles that no longer serve us.The conversation moves into spirituality, intuition and the illusion of control. Oliver and Talyn explore the balance between surrendering to life and still taking personal responsibility for your actions, choices and direction.They also discuss isolation, discomfort and periods of uncertainty — and why some of the most difficult stages of life can become catalysts for transformation.The episode goes deeper into addiction, dopamine, meditation, spiritual practices, energy and finding meaning in life's unpredictable journey.Topics discussed:• How our decisions can completely reroute our lives• Life purpose, destiny and trusting the unknown• Childhood trauma and patterns within relationships• Recognising and breaking repeating cycles• The illusion of control and embracing uncertainty• Spiritual surrender vs taking personal responsibility• Intuition and following your internal guidance• Fear, resistance and stepping into the unknown• Why isolation and discomfort can lead to transformation• Addiction, dopamine and changing behavioural patterns• Meditation and spiritual practices• Energy, consciousness and self-awareness• Personal transformation after difficult experiences• Finding meaning in life's journey• Learning to trust yourself and the direction of your lifeKEY HIGHLIGHTS[00:00] Introduction and life purpose[04:30] Relationships and personal trauma[09:15] Healing childhood patterns[13:45] Intuition and following universal guidance[18:20] Overcoming resistance and fear[22:00] Personal transformation[26:30] Addiction and dopamine reset[32:15] Spiritual practices and meditation[38:00] Finding meaning in life's journey[43:50] Closing insights and reflectionsGUEST BIOTalyn Fiore, known as The Energy Alchemist, is a published author and multi-faceted artist whose journey through profound personal loss helped shape her path as an intuitive Reiki Master.Her work focuses on helping people explore their own potential, energy, intuition and personal transformation.WATCH ON YOUTUBEhttps://youtube.com/yeskingoliverFREE PDFs & GUIDESWant practical tools to help you take greater control of your mind, habits, sleep, lifestyle and direction?I've created 6 FREE guides covering neurodivergence, sleep, overthinking, lifestyle change, emotional work and taking control of your life.Download them FREE here:https://talkwitholiver.com/free-pdfTOURETTE'S, OCD, ADHD & NEURODIVERSE RESET10 practical lifestyle changes I used to move from daily tics, overwhelm and compulsive patterns towards greater calm, clarity and self-trust.60-DAY HUMAN RESETA structured day-by-day reset covering sleep, movement, nutrition and nervous-system practices.AWAKEN60A 60-step guide to taking greater control of your brain and life by working on your environment, sleep, body, diet, vitamins, mind and daily actions.TIMELINE60Walk back through your life year by year, explore difficult memories and work through emotions and experiences you may still be carrying.SLEEP60A 16-step natural sleep protocol designed to help reset your sleep routine and circadian rhythm, fall asleep more easily and sleep more deeply.THOUGHT SWATTINGA practical method for getting thoughts out of your head, organising them, dealing with the past, taking action on the future and reducing repetitive mental loops.GET ALL 6 FREE GUIDES:https://talkwitholiver.com/free-pdfFREE BUSINESS MENTORSHIP & COACHINGWant to ask me questions about business, mindset, productivity, lifestyle or personal growth?Join my FREE online or in-person mentorship and coaching sessions.Visit:https://talkwitholiver.comSTAY CONNECTEDInstagram:https://www.instagram.com/yeskingoliverFree PDFs & Guides:https://talkwitholiver.com/free-pdfWebsite, Free Course & Workshops:https://talkwitholiver.comIf you enjoyed this episode, LIKE, SUBSCRIBE and COMMENT with your biggest takeaway.Turn on notifications so you never miss an episode.#SpiritualJourney #TrustTheProcess #SelfDiscovery #LifePurpose #PersonalGrowth #Spirituality #Meditation #ChildhoodTrauma #Relationships #Healing #Transformation #AwakeningSend us Fan MailSupport the showRaw, unedited conversations exploring healing, self-awareness, trauma, and personal growth.Hosted by Oliver, who overcame Tourette's, ADHD, and OCD through lifestyle changes and nervous system regulation, this podcast focuses on real, practical healing — not theory.Each episode covers topics like emotional triggers, inner child healing, mindfulness, identity, and building resilience through honest, lived experience.For anyone seeking clarity, emotional freedom, and deeper self-understanding.Watch on YouTube: https://youtube.com/yeskingoliverInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/yeskingoliverDownload my FREE PDF's — Take Control: http://www.talkwitholiver.com/pdfCommunity for healers, lightworkers & conscious travellers:Connect, exchange services, plan journeys, list retreats, discover festivals, and share your work:https://www.findmytribe.orgFor Ceramonial Cacao https://ommawellbeing.com

The 5D Academy with Zarathustra explores universal wisdom to foster total freedom from suffering in all areas of your life; health, wealth, love, and self.Each Academy podcast contains valuable insights and takeaways to become the best version of yourself and create an authentic, fulfilling life. Zarathustra transmits 5th Dimensional Quantum frequencies in each episode with transformational tools while discussing different topics to help you maintain this new frequency in your daily life.Zarathustra has created a practical system of transmitting the truth to his audience allowing transformation and freedom from suffering. Spiritual development requires an open heart. It is virtually impossible for a seeker to advance to higher consciousness if they don't love themselves. The belief system which has been ingrained in our cellular memory from childhood that we are not good enough results in a conditioned mind. The conditioned mind holds the false belief that there is something missing in our lives, that we are incomplete, that we need to gain something in order to become happy and whole, which is not true. After a life time of searching, Zarathustra has blended a practical system of Eastern and Western methods and techniques to help the Academy members to free themselves from anxiety, negative thoughts, lack of self-love and self-acceptance and destructive emotional patterns through a systematic way to raise your vibration to 5D Vibrational Frequency, which enables you to live a vibrant life of freedom and happiness.The Key Elements To Freedom:Zarathustra recognizes continuity and consistency are the key elements to freedom. In order to help you achieve your spiritual goals, it's best to have a highly effective spiritual practice, free of dogmas, false beliefs and superstition that helps you raise your vibration to 5D Vibrational Frequency as well as the ability to maintain this newly found higher level of consciousness. This translates to a life filled with inner peace, self-love and happiness which is the goal of every spiritual seeker.New knowledge and benefits are gained with each replay.

Many dentists know what their practice produces each month, but fewer understand how much value their existing patient base generates each year. Annual patient value, or APV, can reveal how efficiently a practice operates, how dependent it is on patient volume, and where opportunities exist to improve profitability without simply adding more patients.In this episode, Kirk Behrendt talks with Christina Byrne, Director of Coaching at ACT Dental, about how to calculate APV, what the number reveals about your business model, and how comprehensive care, service mix, insurance participation, and patient retention can influence it. Learn how to use APV to evaluate the health of your practice and make incremental improvements over time—listen to Episode 1102 of The Best Practices Show!Main Takeaways:Annual patient value is calculated by dividing collections from the most recent rolling 12 months by the current active patient count.APV helps show how efficiently a practice generates collections from its existing patient base.A high-volume, low-profit-per-patient model generally requires more patients, appointments, team capacity, and operational infrastructure.A lower-volume, higher-profit-per-patient model can allow a practice to spend more time with patients and provide more comprehensive treatment.Comprehensive exams, complete treatment planning, periodontal diagnosis, long-term planning, and a broader hygiene service mix can help increase APV.Improving APV does not require an immediate jump to a specific benchmark, and practices can set smaller quarter-over-quarter improvement goals.APV is an outcome that reflects factors including comprehensive care, case acceptance, service mix, fee strategy, and patient retention.Episode Chapters:00:00 Introduction to Metric Mondays and annual patient value.01:00 Christina Byrne joins Kirk to discuss why APV matters.02:35 How to calculate annual patient value.03:20 What APV reveals about an existing patient base.04:50 Why APV can indicate practice efficiency and comprehensive care.06:50 Production versus the efficiency of the business model.07:15 High-volume, low-profit-per-patient practices.09:15 Low-volume, higher-profit-per-patient practices.11:00 Insurance adjustments and their impact on the business model.13:00 How write-offs, overhead, and production interact.14:35 Working backward from a collection goal using APV.18:02 Comprehensive care strategies that can raise APV.22:37 How to calculate APV and set incremental goals.25:00 Business model and KPI analysis resources mentioned in the episode.25:45 Episode wrap-upGuest Bio:Christina Byrne is the Director of Operations at ACT Dental, where she oversees coaching alignment, system development, and operational consistency across practices nationwide. She works closely with dental teams to help them build scalable systems that improve predictability, accountability, and long-term practice performance. In this episode, Christina references ACT Dental resources including the Analyzing Existing Systems document, the master systems checklist, and the systems and checklist support guide available through the Best Practices Association.More Helpful Links for a Better Practice & a Better Life:Contact Gina to learn more about ACT: gina@actdental.comThe Best Practices Show: https://www.actdental.com/podcast/Smile Source Community Hub: https://www.actdental.com/community-hubUpcoming Events & Workshops: https://www.actdental.com/events/Smile Source: https://www.smilesource.com/Subscribe on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.comSubscribe on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com

Unconditional love and a reciprocal relationship are not the same thing. Importantly, participation in a relationship is each individual's choice.In this conversation, Dr. Janet and Brianna sit with why that difference matters so much in estrangement. We can love someone unconditionally as an individual. We are not able to build a healthy relationship with them on our own. Both people must choose to participate because a reciprocal relationship asks both people to show up, to define boundaries together, and to keep choosing each other as adults. Janet and Brianna trace the clunky shift from parent and child into an adult to adult relationship, the space that first led to their estrangement, and then made their own repair possible. Learn the simple set of questions that can bring a strained or estranged relationship back into balance. IN THIS EPISODE Why unconditional love and a reciprocal relationship are two separate things, and why blending them keeps us stuck The clunky, awkward shift from parent as decider into a relationship between two adults, and why naming it helps How constant contact and social media reshape the way our children grow into their own lives Why space, and sometimes no contact, can be the most powerful move toward repair The four questions that help both people find their way back to balance How boundaries, demands, and expectations differ, and how they are meant to change over time Why disagreement is not rejection, for parents or for adult children CORE MESSAGE"I can love you unconditionally by myself. I cannot create a healthy relationship with you by myself." Dr. Janet Steinkamp VOICES FROM THIS EPISODE "Unconditional love and reciprocal relationships do not go hand in hand. They are two different things." Brianna "I had to step away from being the unilateral decision maker, and I cannot tell you how much better life feels not carrying that anymore." Dr. Janet "Respecting the space we ask for is the most powerful thing a parent can do for the relationship." Brianna "Our kids do not stop loving us, even when they are setting boundaries. It is the relationship that needs the focus."

How can dentists stay clinically sharp, adapt to digital dentistry, and maintain profitable workflows throughout their careers? In this episode, Kirk Behrendt talks with Dr. John Cranham, educator, mentor, and longtime student and faculty member of the Dawson philosophy, about the four pillars dentists need to continually develop: foundational principles, efficient and profitable workflows, ongoing education, and mentorship. They also discuss the different challenges facing emerging digital dentists and experienced clinicians transitioning into digital workflows, why technology must remain grounded in sound clinical principles, and how mentorship accelerates growth.To learn how to combine clinical fundamentals, technology, education, and feedback into a sustainable path toward excellence, listen to Episode 1101 of The Best Practices Show!Main Takeaways:Strong foundational knowledge in aesthetics, occlusion, biology, and structural integrity guides effective diagnosis and treatment planning.Efficient and profitable workflows require repeatable systems that allow the entire dental team to understand how clinical procedures should progress.Dentists need ongoing education to stay current with evolving materials, software, technology, and treatment approaches.Mentorship provides a trusted feedback loop where dentists can share their work, receive constructive guidance, and continue improving.Emerging digital dentists often understand technology quickly but need deeper clinical principles to guide how they use it.Experienced dentists often have strong clinical foundations but need support incorporating scanners, software, digital design, printing, and other technologies into their workflows.Digital dentistry allows clinicians to move faster, but foundational principles determine whether they are moving in the right direction.Episode Chapters:00:00 Intro01:19 Dr. John Cranham begins a new chapter after putting down the handpiece.02:07 The four areas dentists need to develop throughout their careers.08:27 Why mentorship requires transparency, feedback, and setting ego aside.09:00 Applying knowledge and learning through repetition and experience.12:03 The emerging digital dentist and the challenges this group faces.16:35 Why technology must be combined with sound clinical principles.21:03 The experienced dentist transitioning into digital dentistry.23:58 Why Dr. Cranham remains committed to teaching and mentoring.27:24 Why younger dentists need to actively seek mentors.31:55 The evolution from Cranham Culp Digital Dental to Dental Mastery.35:59 Goal setting, accountability, and access to mentorship.36:00 How dentists can learn more about Dental Mastery.Guest Bio:Dr. John Cranham graduated from dental school in 1988 and built a general dental practice in Chesapeake, Virginia, with a focus on aesthetic dentistry, implant dentistry, TMD, and complex restorative care. Early in his career, he completed advanced education through the Dawson Academy, the Pankey Institute, and programs associated with Kois and Spear. His Cranham Dental Seminars organization merged with the Dawson Academy in 2004, and he served as clinical director of the Dawson Academy from 2004 to 2020. He later developed Cranham Culp Digital Dental and has continued teaching comprehensive dentists how to translate traditional restorative and occlusal principles into digital workflows. He is also involved with the Pankey Institute and its educational programs.Episode Resources:Dental Mastery: dentalmastery.com1092: The Truth About Practice Ownership, DSOs, and Retirement: https://podcasts.apple.com/ph/podcast/1092-the-truth-about-practice-ownership-dsos/id1223838218?i=1000786495379More Helpful Links for a Better Practice & a Better Life:Contact Gina to learn more about ACT: gina@actdental.comThe Best Practices Show: https://www.actdental.com/podcast/Smile Source Community Hub: https://www.actdental.com/community-hubUpcoming Events & Workshops: https://www.actdental.com/events/Smile Source: https://www.smilesource.com/Subscribe on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.comSubscribe on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com

In this episode of Workday Playdate, Erin sits down with entrepreneur, speaker, and author Brent Freeman to unpack what happens when external success stops feeling like success. After building billion-dollar growth machines, Brent found himself burned out, disconnected, and asking a much bigger question: What if the life I'm building isn't actually the life I want? Brent shares how a “one-degree drift” away from yourself can quietly turn into burnout and how he began rebuilding his life around joy, presence, and intentionality. From canceling every meeting to watch a sunset to creating a daily “list of joy,” Brent explains the neuroscience, nervous system practices, and emotional alchemy tools behind his new book, The Alchemy of Joy. Whether you're navigating burnout, chasing your next achievement, or simply want to feel more present in your own life, this conversation is a reminder that joy is something you can invest in right now. Inside This Episode: When Success Stops Feeling Successful: Brent opens up about the hollow feeling that came after building massive businesses and achieving the external markers of success he once thought would create fulfillment. The One-Degree Drift: Learn how tiny, seemingly harmless choices can gradually move you away from your values, your joy, and yourself—and why noticing the drift early matters. Burnout Beyond Hustle Culture: Brent explores how burnout can hide behind ambition, impact, productivity, and achievement, and why it's not simply a matter of “working too hard.” The Return on Joy (ROJ): Discover Brent's framework for treating joy as an intentional investment with a compounding payoff in energy, fulfillment, presence, and quality of life. The One-Minute Window: Learn a simple 60-second practice for interrupting autopilot, regulating your nervous system, and coming back to the present moment. What to Do Now: Make Your List of Joy: Write down 5–10 things that genuinely make you feel alive, energized, connected, or playful. Then ask yourself: When was the last time I made time for these? Try the One-Minute Window: The next time you feel overwhelmed or triggered, stop for 60 seconds. Breathe. Notice what's happening in your body. Let yourself come back to the present before deciding what to do next. Invest in Your ROJ: Choose one small thing that brings you joy and intentionally put it on your calendar this week. Don't wait until everything else is done. Consider it a daily investment in your return on joy. About the Guest Brent Freeman is a visionary entrepreneur, speaker, and author of The Alchemy of Joy. He founded Roozt.com, Stealth Venture Labs, NonnaLive, and Stealth Impact Lab, building businesses and social-impact initiatives that have generated billions in revenue and reached hundreds of thousands of people worldwide. After years of pursuing growth, impact, and achievement, Brent walked away from the hustle and grind to dedicate his work to helping people rediscover joy through neuroscience, inspiration, meditation, and subconscious training. Today, he speaks, teaches, and coaches around his philosophy of the “Return on Joy,” the idea that intentionally investing in joy can create a compounding return across every area of life.
