Ryan Isaac of Dentist Advisors returns to continue his discussion with Kiera about the future of dentistry, including options aside from DSOs. The question a practice owner should ask themself, Kiera and Ryan say, is what that individual wants out of their life — then consider the best platform to get you there.

And I truly am so excited for you guys here, part two. And as always, thanks for listening. I'll catch you next time on the Dental A Team Podcast.   Kiera Dent (00:17) why don't we take a pause and just think of like, what's the future of dentistry as now the future pioneers of dentistry? And what are we going to do to our profession? Yes, there's top dollar. Yes, there's things about it, but is there a way to influence?   and make sure that the integrity of dentistry can maintain long-term. I have no answer to that, but again, this is Kiera Dent sitting on my podcast where I think that there is a voice and an influence and like on Dentist Advisors podcast, is there a way that we can influence our industry in ways that will protect and still pay out? Because I'm like, even if you don't get the 10X EBITDA, you still can get a freaking great payout if you do your life right to where you can be financially set up.   Ryan Isaac (00:33) Mm-hmm. ⁓   Kiera Dent (00:58) still be able to sell your practice, not have to sell it in ways that could potentially hurt the industry. I'm not saying one's the right answer or the wrong answer. There's no judgment on my side. It's just, let's maybe think and consider how it could influence. Can we get people that could be private equity higher up that could help protect it? Those are things that, and again, I'm just Kiera Dent here in Reno, Nevada.   Ryan Isaac (01:03) Mm-hmm. Yeah.   Same, okay.   Okay. Yes. No, these are the questions.   You're totally influential. I think it's just in the opposite direction. ⁓ I don't think we can influence private equity. Private equity is ruthless in every industry. They don't. It feels dirty. It feels dirty. And I have a question for you, but I just want to say really fast. ⁓ I do feel like, yes.   Kiera Dent (01:30) It's dirty. It's dirty.   Is there a way though, Brian, you   don't finance better than me. Is there a way that there could become dentists that could become in private equity where they own it? Because once you, there's no way to insulate, you don't think. Because once you get to that level, you just, I mean, I've had.   Ryan Isaac (01:44) Yeah, but they'll do the same thing. I mean, they'll want the same thing.   Now, money's money. It's why capitalism runs   the world. mean, that's why, you know, it's like why it influences politics and money and business runs the world, you know? ⁓ Okay, hold on. There's so many good things here. Number one would be not every group will be a DSO, private equity backed DSO. And you know, many, many ⁓ clients and just dentists around the country who will end up being owners of   Kiera Dent (02:05) Okay.   Ryan Isaac (02:19) 20, 50, 100 group practices that will stay privately held and ran by owner doctors. That will be a chunk of this ⁓ group practice ⁓ takeover. So in that space, the influence can still be huge. ⁓ I think the chance to influence the integrity of private practice is in those who don't sell to DSOs.   I think it's in the industry, educated in influencing the industry for people who aren't going to sell and who are going to maintain control. Now, I do think that in the future, more and more dentists will be in a group. ⁓ are probably, yeah, be fewer and I can see why it would make sense to do that. There would probably be fewer and fewer people with just solo doc, solo location practices. know, some towns and rural places, that would be hard to do.   Kiera Dent (02:47) Mm-hmm.   I do too.   Ryan Isaac (03:15) So I think you're Dorothy, is that what you said? I'm Dorothy. I think that is possible, not with private equity, but with still the owner doctors that still exist and the group practices that are ran by dentists, not private equity back. I think the influence is still gonna be, I mean, if you took the projections of what will stay private,   Kiera Dent (03:20) Yeah, hi.   I agree.   Ryan Isaac (03:40) and then the chunk of the group stuff that'll be non DSO non-corporate, that's still got to be 40, 50 % of the industry eventually.   Kiera Dent (03:49) I would think so.   I mean, look at it right now. There's corporate dentistry within. And again, there's nothing wrong with any, because I have clients that are in corporate dentistry that run their practices like private. They take care of their teams. So it's one of those things I still think, like even if you are, and that's another way that we can influence this, if you are part of a private equity-backed DSO, you can still influence your practice. You're still the dentist working in the practice. You can still run culture. You can still run change.   Ryan Isaac (03:59) Totally. Absolutely.   Yes.   and hit it.   Kiera Dent (04:16) ⁓ I know the doctors I have, they're part of a very large group corporate and things that we have done together, like I work with them, they're my only corporate practice that I work with, but we have literally influenced the top tier CEO. They've asked what these offices are doing differently. They're taking things that I've helped bring into the practice and they've asked like, what's changed in your practice? Like we hired this girl who teaches us to run it like private practice. Their culture's incredible. We're even right now petitioning up to the top people because they're writing off things that you can actually   bill out to insurance that they're making them write off when it's like, actually, no, we can bill it as a non covered service and actually have the patients cover. So I'm like, I do still think whether you're in private equity, but I think you've got to be a strong enough doctor where you advocate for the rights of your patients and the rights of your practice. And I'm super proud of my client who does this because her and her husband, they go to bat and they're like, they write some pretty direct emails to the CEO of this and say like, hey, and they're a big enough force. Cause I mean,   Ryan Isaac (04:55) Mm. Yes.   huh.   Kiera Dent (05:15) They're the top tier practice in their area. have them making like, we are adding multiple millions to their offices every single year. But I'm like, I think that's also how dentists, even if you're in private equity, even if you're in group practices, I think at the end of the day, are clinicians and clinic, like you are, you are the product. And I think that they have, I think dentists have more say than they might realize that they do to influence the industry and keep it more positive and more ethical than it could be otherwise.   Ryan Isaac (05:38) Yeah.   Yeah, I totally agree. I totally agree with that. We all know people who are in those group models that are still running like amazing, almost privately held practices. The other thing that's interesting that's different than medical, because it always gets compared to the medical field consolidation that happened, is medicine has a distinct difference and advantage in that they have hospital systems where gigantic campuses where they can house hundreds of doctors in one place, right?   It's just not that's not a thing in dentistry, which I think will will force it to stay a little unique, different than medical, because you can never have a giant campus building with, you know, 400 dentists. Yeah, like 500. I mean, I don't know. I guess never say never some some group might invent that and you know, like the dental campus of the city. I don't know. Yes, it's possible. But it seems a lot less likely. Yeah.   Kiera Dent (06:18) Mm-hmm.   500 off, you imagine?   Say hi.   I mean, dental schools have a lot, but   I'm like, okay, I think the piece that would be really hard is to justify 500 beds, like 500 ops. You've got your hygiene that's cranking. So you gotta have, in a 500 bed, would need, like, we can only see 500 patients a day. so you can only see if it's 500 a day, that's how many patients you could actually see. I don't think that would be a full city, and we're basically taking over whole city.   Ryan Isaac (06:55) Yeah.   No. Yeah.   Kiera Dent (07:03) And then you might   not be pulling out that much dentistry outside of all of that to be able to fill that many doctors in their schedules. Cause so much of it's hygiene run, it's like a two to one ratio that I think that would be the zone. ⁓   Ryan Isaac (07:07) No.   I love this analysis. Yeah, I   couldn't go that far, but there you go. That's exactly right. So I do think it'll stay different enough in nature because of that. ⁓ And yeah, I, to go back to the, love your question. We've been kicking this around a lot in dentists advisors and I want to reiterate the same thing. There's no judgment here. There's no right or wrong. For some people, it's absolutely the best decision to exit with the DSO and just find the right one. Take your time. ⁓   Kiera Dent (07:19) There you go.   I agree.   Ryan Isaac (07:43) to go through the deals with someone who really knows what deals look like, not just a friend or a CPA unless that CPA is looking at hundreds of deals. Call Brandon, right?   Kiera Dent (07:51) Seriously, I'm like, why? He's got like every flavor of ice cream available of DSOs for you. And like, what are your goals with your financial advisor? What do you need to retire? And then you make sure that the deal is going to actually get you that because like you said, Ryan, it's your greatest asset. And that's where to me, it breaks my heart when people do this. And I was actually, when we were talking about assets, ⁓ there was a stress test portfolio that I heard at a conference that I thought was really awesome that I think about often. so thinking about when you said like, we're investing into this stock.   Ryan Isaac (07:59) Yeah.   That's it.   Kiera Dent (08:20) portfolio, like we're basically putting so much of our biggest asset and so many of our dollars into one single stock. And they said, just stress test your portfolio. If my two biggest portions of my portfolio. Okay. So the two biggest portions right now. And I think about this often, even you and me, Ryan, if those two asset classes dropped yesterday, cause I always do like, if they dropped tomorrow and you're like, well, I'd freaking move things. No, if it dropped yesterday, so there's nothing you could do. Do you have the staying power for things to recover? So like, I don't need to liquidate my assets.   Ryan Isaac (08:24) in one single, yeah.   Mm.   Kiera Dent (08:50) can still have income from our other assets and buying assets that are down. So looking at that, and I think about that often, like, so if your biggest ones are in the stock market and in your DSO and both of those dropped yesterday, like that's all that's gone. Could you still be okay? And if not, maybe look at other ways to diversify that portfolio. I'm not an advisor, Ryan. So you speak to like, if you agree or disagree on that, because that's my thoughts on it.   Ryan Isaac (09:11) Yeah.   Although yeah, no,   that's a really ⁓ logical way to look at stress testing something. If the stock market disappeared as a whole yesterday, all, yeah, well, we just, every publicly traded company in the entire world would be gone simultaneously. We would all be in so much trouble. Like we just wouldn't have cell phone service or gasoline or, you know, like a million things. Yeah, for a minute.   Kiera Dent (09:26) You say that we're all gonna go to the apocalypse, like.   Good thing you're by the ocean. You at least have a good time there, Ryan. I need   to get out of Reno, Nevada for that one year fact alone.   Ryan Isaac (09:44) Yeah, yeah. For me, yeah,   it would work for a minute, but then we would have no grocery chains, there would be no shipping distribution, there'd be no trucking, there would be no like, you know, we'd be done within like a week. You know what I mean? So, but you're the logic of it is true. It's almost like what if we just looked at stress testing a deal, you know, and you said there's usually three parts in a DSO deal, there's the cash up front, there's usually some kind of earned back, or bonus system, that's usually a smaller piece. And then there's the equity piece.   And if one of those didn't exist, if one of those dropped off, what would this deal look like? And I think the question we have to ask is if the equity didn't hit, you know, if they don't get returns on multiples on their equity, like they're projecting and always, of course, the projections are huge, you know, always, always. If this does not come in like you expect, let's just say it's half of what they expected that which would be probably fair to say, or it's all you do is get your money back one day.   Kiera Dent (10:32) always.   Ryan Isaac (10:43) What does this now look like to you? Is this a survivable thing? And is this even something you would be interested in doing? But again, you said this before, I've been saying this, go talk to someone who knows what these deals look like, like Brandon. I'll give you an example. with a client a few weeks ago who had an offer. They were getting a lot of pressure from the group where this came from. They were kind of involved in like, well, I won't even say it. It was just a group of people of other dentists that were kind of pooling practices together. And this buyer,   Kiera Dent (10:50) you   Ryan Isaac (11:14) just a lot of pressure, a lot of hype, right? A lot of hype. And the deal as the details started coming through started smelling really weird. And even he was just like, I don't know. He talked to Brandon for 30 minutes and it became so obvious so quickly how bad this deal was. And now he's pushing the brakes a little bit. He's going to ramp up his profitability, work on the practices some more. He still wants to consider a sale, which is great with that's fine if that's still what you want to do.   Kiera Dent (11:38) Yep.   Ryan Isaac (11:43) But I think that conversation probably just saved him millions of dollars, literally in 30 minutes of conversation. So just talk to somebody, please, about these deals. There's every flavor out there. There's so many ways that they can twist and bend these things. And yeah, there's just a lot of moving pieces in there. So just be careful. Yeah, just talk to someone. Be careful.   Kiera Dent (12:02) I would like, and what   you said, also think like, make sure that you're also selling it for top dollar. This is something I really love about working with you guys, working with clients is if we know that there's a sell on the horizon, think one of the best things you can do is truly like pulling a consultant, pulling somebody. And like I was talking to a doctor the other day and they're like, KK, we want you to come in and help us like with our systems, but they're selling in a year. And I was like, well, respectfully as your consultant, I'm not going to sit here and deal with systems.   Ryan Isaac (12:13) Yes.   Please.   Kiera Dent (12:31) If you're selling to a DSO, odds are a lot of those systems they're gonna bring into you anyway. Our best thing we can do is make your life easy right now, boost your production, reduce your overhead, increase your EBITDA so you get top dollar on the sale while making it like amazing. Like we'll still put systems into place. We'll still take care of your hot fires with your team right now. But like, why not go, it's like, if I know I'm selling my house in a year and if I did a few things to make it exponentially higher.   Ryan Isaac (12:32) .   Yeah.   Kiera Dent (12:56) in the next year of my sell, why would I not do that now? And for us, it's not even like a house where I'm just painting the walls. We're literally boosting your production. We're pushing your overhead down. We're helping your whole team get on board for that. So that way your asset really is the best asset you can get. And we're not doing it in a hard way. So I know it feels like a push, but just know Dental A Team's way is ease. So it's like, it's going to be an exponential growth for you, but with like ridiculous ease. And most of our clients, we just did a huge study across the board of hundreds of our clients.   Ryan Isaac (13:13) Mm-hmm.   Kiera Dent (13:24) And on average, they're seeing a 30 % increase in their production and a reduction in their overhead within their first three to six months of working with us. So like even if you have a year or two year timeline, that right there, so getting the right deal, making sure you're selling it at top, like squeezing the juice out of every single thing we possibly can get out of your practice. ⁓ But then also I feel like what happens in that scenario, Ryan, I see it all the time, is when we come in and we like powerhouse it up with them.   Ryan Isaac (13:34) Thank   Kiera Dent (13:51) They're like, wow, I'm working two days a week and I would make what this DSO was going to offer me and I don't even have to work. Why would I get rid of this practice right now to the DSO? That happens more than I can tell you because it's like they didn't realize it could happen this way. And I'm like, just tell me what you want. Like you want the DSO, you want to work two days. Why don't we build you that right now and like keep the asset that you've got and sell it when you want, which is going to make you the same amount of money as the DSO, but it's on your terms.   Ryan Isaac (13:59) Yes. Yep.   all the time.   Kiera Dent (14:20) So I think that like people don't realize that you can have the benefits of the DSO today. I think the only piece you can't have like, but I give air quotes on can't is like, you still are an owner, but I'm like, there's literally ways for you to sell to partners, have it pay out to you. And you can actually get rid of that ownership piece if you don't want it ⁓ and still have it be the same type of a deal. I think like, don't forget that there's also deals outside of DSOs that you can do internally. ⁓   Ryan Isaac (14:26) Yep.   Kiera Dent (14:48) but it is shocking Ryan how many practice, like I had a doctor and he's like, Kara, I'm going to get 5 million for my practice on this. And I was like, rock on in two years, we literally will make you 5 million net post-tax in two years. was like, literally, and that's net that's post-tax like in two years. I was like, this is not a good deal for you financially if you're going after the financial dollar. So I think just be smart with how you look at this because I don't know, right. And you do it to me all the time. You're like, Kara, yeah, go sell.   Ryan Isaac (14:58) That's what you're make in two years of income. Yeah. Yeah.   Mm-hmm.   Kiera Dent (15:17) but you can also just get the life you want and have your practice and your business run differently, why not consider that scenario too? So I think.   Ryan Isaac (15:19) Yeah.   Yeah, I'm,   yeah, okay. Sorry, finish your thought. I just like what you just said. I just love that. I was gonna ask you this exact thing. I was gonna ask you this exact thing. I was gonna say, Kiera, aren't there ways someone could step back and pause and say, why am I interested in selling to a DSO and then just try to create it through the work you guys do easily?   Kiera Dent (15:27) Okay, so yeah, take it.   100 % and right you do   it to me all the time. You're like Kiera. Well, what would you want your life to look like if you were to sell it? I'm like, I would care if you stopped if you sold what would your life look like? And I'm like, I do this. I do this. I do this. You're like, all right, then why don't we just make your business do that today? I don't think people realize how like you can manipulate your business to truly support the life, the finances, everything you want. Like it's shocking. I'm like just basically give me the North Star and we will manipulate the entire thing for you.   Ryan Isaac (15:59) Just do it.   Yeah.   Yeah.   Kiera Dent (16:14) in ways you didn't even know. like, I need Ryan to know our North Star where we need to get. Then we break it down to your, like what lifestyle you want to have. And then we just crank, like, it's like shake and bake. It's such an easy thing for us to do. And we're still doing it with like amazing ethics. It's under your control. It's your culture. It's your business. It's your life. But I mean, I have a doctor who's producing over 5 million a year, working two days a week, taking home DreamPaycheck and they were going to sell it to a DSO. And I'm like, it took us two years to get them to the offer.   and they're like, they're so happy and they're able to now, like you said, I think one of the best pieces on this is they got everything that they would have gotten from the cell. But in addition to that, they didn't lose everything that they've built to where now they can go build and create, like you said, the two day a week practice where they're having it, but they've kept their huge asset over here. And so I just think like, I don't know. I feel like there's so many more options on the table than people necessarily think there are. And so.   Ryan Isaac (17:03) Mm-hmm.   Kiera Dent (17:12) Maybe don't listen to all the noise, be the smarter. It's like when everybody's doing X, maybe there's a Y that would actually benefit your life.   Ryan Isaac (17:16) Yeah. A million percent.   Yeah. I mean, Warren Buffett has a quote around that. It's a little bit different with stock market buys and sells and greed and fear. But yeah, that's exactly it. Yeah. I love that you said that. I assume. What are we like 45 minutes already? I assume that you probably want to wrap this thing up, but I wanted to end it with that exact question you went there, which is like, can't we do this? Can't you? No. I mean, that's not the job we do. The Dental A team can help design.   that what you're trying to accomplish that you think some private equity firms gonna come in and give you. And again, let's all just remember, private equity firms, ⁓ they don't love you.   Kiera Dent (17:57) It's true.   Ryan Isaac (17:58) They love your money   and they are not stupid. There's a reason why they gobble up every industry in the economy is because they make us believe they're just giving us sweetheart deals. Like, they're gonna give us so much money. Isn't it so crazy? Like, no, they're really smart. They're gonna get so much more money from you than you're gonna get from them. So if they want your thing so bad that they're gonna chase you down and send you offers and every time you decline, they're gonna be like, okay, wait, what about this one?   Kiera Dent (18:15) They are.   Ryan Isaac (18:26) They want it so bad. You must really be holding something really special. So how can you make that thing become your dream scenario without having to give it up? First, just consider that again, no judgment. There is no right or wrong. Maybe that is your path and that is best for you. Great. If you do the work and the, you know, the research and you're just sitting and you're asking smart people like here in the Dental A Team, you know, about all the details and you're asking yourself why through all this process, that's just, that's the whole thing. So I'm glad you   Kiera Dent (18:31) Mm-hmm.   Yeah.   Ryan Isaac (18:56) Assuming we're ending it soon. I'm glad you ended it with that because that's what I was thinking about   Kiera Dent (19:01) Well, and I'm glad I'm going around the same beach because I feel like DSOs can be such a buzz. I think it's, I don't know. I just thought about, I remember when Jason and I were graduating from pharmacy school and we had a lot of debt on us and it was so tempting to go the 10 year loan forgiveness plan. So tempting. And Jason and I decided like, Hey, we don't want to like hope and bank that in 10 years, we're actually going to get all this paid off.   Ryan Isaac (19:07) yeah.   Mm-hmm.   Kiera Dent (19:29) And if it doesn't happen, what's it going to cost us at that point? And so we elected to just go for it to pay for it and to basically have it like, it's within our control rather than someone else holding my future. And I think that's how I often live my life of like, is there a way that I can get my dream life or I'm not banking on someone else holding up their end of the deal, hoping and praying that their equity makes it and it's something that we can actually do with ease? Why not do that?   Ryan Isaac (19:33) Mm-hmm.   Kiera Dent (19:55) Ryan knows it was a huge issue with me and Jason for about a year to pay off his student loans, but the growth and the life that we were able to achieve that we wouldn't even be done. We still would not even be done with our debt right now. And it would have ballooned and not all of the debt's being eliminated. Like there's so many things around these loan forgiveness programs that I think about that with DSOs too. You have so much banked in, the hope, the promises, like everything has to go right for this huge multiple to have it there.   Ryan Isaac (20:07) yeah. Yeah.   Uh-huh.   Kiera Dent (20:24) Is there maybe a few other paths that you could look at that might get you what you ultimately want, give it to you with more control on your side, and also be able to allow you just more flexibility and freedom. Again, no judgment. think what Ryan and I are trying to bring to the table is maybe just consider looking at things differently to see what's the best path for you. And I say like, right back at you, Ryan, use your financial advisors, know what your magic number is, know what you need, and then figure out which option is going to be that.   Ryan Isaac (20:48) Yeah.   Kiera Dent (20:52) while also providing you the dream life that you want. So Ryan, thanks for the riff today. It was a solid time.   Ryan Isaac (20:54) Yep. Thank you.   It almost felt like planned. was so smooth.   Kiera Dent (21:01) So, mean, it does help when we're good like peanut butter jelly. Like we're very aligned on how we see, that's why I think our clients work so well together because like Denali team clients going to Dentist advisors, it's amazing. We think on similar investment strategies and like just the planning and the protecting clients. And on the other side, it's, Hey, here's our financial number. Denali team literally can like give the gas and give the pieces to it of tactical. So thanks Ryan. was a good time.   Ryan Isaac (21:04) Yep.   Hmm.   We all want to do. Yeah.   Yeah. Yeah. We want to grow and protect that business and make it, you know, it's your whole life. Make it as good as you possibly can. You guys are so good at that.   Kiera Dent (21:34) Great.   Well, Ryan, if people are interested in connecting with you, how do they get connected? Because again, I think for me, before I even talked to DSOs, I always tell them like talk to your financial advisor, figure out your project number. That way you actually can then have even one filter on what deals you're looking for, what plan you need your business to be. So Ryan, how do they connect with you?   Ryan Isaac (21:41) Yeah, totally.   Million   percent. So I'll always say friends of the Dental A Team always can email me directly. I'll always have a conversation with anyone no matter what you're looking for. You don't have to be trying to hire a financial advisor. You might just have a few questions and I will always get on the phone and talk to someone. Just email me directly if you ever want to. Ryan at Dentist Advisors dot com. It's with an O.R.S. You can all just also just go to our website dentist advisor dot com. have   probably thousands of hours of free content on there, podcasts, articles, webinars, everything. You can book a consultation with our whole team there at any time. go learn as much as you want, listen to anything, tons of free stuff on there, but that's the best thing. I'm always happy to have a conversation.   Kiera Dent (22:29) It's amazing. And just so you know, Ryan does not take very many clients. So that's why I love him being on here. He's one of the founders. I think Ryan's one of the smartest people I've ever met. So definitely take him up on it. I know tons of our clients love meeting with Ryan because Ryan will tell you like, Hey, you don't need me or Hey, here's someone better for you. So I think it's just like, you're just an incredible human who ultimately cares and loves about these dentists, which is why I just appreciate you. So check him out. Yeah, of course. And for everyone listening, thank you for listening and we'll catch you next time.   Ryan Isaac (22:31) Yeah.   I do. Yep, I do. Thank you. Thank you.   Kiera Dent (22:59) the Dental A Team Podcast.  

“Mushrooms are so crazy. That's why I love them. It's healing. Some can kill you. Some can heal you. Some are just delicious. There's just so many different ways mushrooms are used. A lot of people struggling with PTSD, you kind of just have that calming effect, where you can now kind of go out in the real world and you're just not ambushed by all of these different emotions and other things that has happened to you. You just re-homeostasis.” —Kaitlyn Kuehn “Is there any evidence showing that mushrooms can slow down cognitive decline?” —Jason Wrobel “Reishi mushroom is the oldest studied mushroom and used for so many different things, like detoxing to inflammation, diabetes, cognitive benefits, nerve healing, digestion health. There's so many different medicinal aspects to different mushrooms and they do have overlapping benefits.” —Kaitlyn Kuehn “I have such a deep love as a chef for using mushrooms in recipes for their medicinal benefits. The texture. The flavor.” —Jason Wrobel “All mushrooms help lower inflammation. As little as a quarter cup a week actually can lower inflammation markers. So it just naturally lowers blood pressure.” —Kaitlyn Kuehn “Why would someone want to take mushrooms on a daily basis? Whether or not they're battling disease or some disorder. Are you a proponent for someone to be taking mushrooms medicinally as a supplement each day?” —Jason Wrobel “It really depends on…” —Kaitlyn Kuehn This week's guest, Kaitlyn Kuehn, also known as KK, is a plant biologist and mycology enthusiast on a mission to decode the secret life of plants and fungi. As the host of the Flora Funga Podcast, she blends science, storytelling, and curiosity to spotlight the unsung heroes of our ecosystems.

날 ▶ 간병 로봇 알고 보니 깡통 로봇? 지역 의료 현장의 인력 부족 해소를 위한 대안으로 경남 도내 소재 공공 노인병원 3곳에 도입된 간병 로봇. 인공지능(AI)을 통해 환자의 상태를 인식하고 화재를 감지하는 등의 기능을 수행한다는 이 로봇은 한 업체가 정부로부터 실증사업 명목으로 국비를 지원받아 제작해, 대기업 계열의 임대 회사를 통해 병원에 공급됐다. 병원과 계약 당시, 기기 대여료는 업체가 대신 내주겠다는 조건까지 걸었다고. 막상 받아보니 구동장치는 물론 전자부품이 하나도 없는 ‘속이 텅 빈' 상태였다고. 이에 병원에서 업체에 이의를 제기하자 ‘기술 보완 중'이라고만 답하고 아무런 후속 조치가 없었다고 한다. 심지어 대여료까지 병원이 내야 하는 상황. 그 금액만도 2억 원에 달한다는데, 어떻게 이런 일이 가능했던 건지 에서 집중 취재했다. HOT 키워드 ▶ 전동 킥보드 과잉단속 논란 지난 13일, 전동 킥보드 한 대를 함께 타고 가던 10대 2명이 경찰의 단속 과정에서 다치는 사고가 발생했다. 당시 두 학생은 헬멧을 착용하지 않은 상태로, 경찰이 단속을 시도하며 한 명의 팔을 붙잡았고 그 순간, 그대로 넘어지게 된 건데. 이때, 뒤에 타고 있던 A 군이 땅에 머리를 부딪치며 뇌출혈로 응급실로 이송됐다. A 군의 아버지는 “법 위반은 인정하나, 이렇게 다칠 만큼 단속했어야 했나?” 경찰의 과잉단속을 주장했고, 경찰은 “정차 지시를 사전에 했다”라고 하며 적법한 단속이었다고 해명한 상황. 엇갈린 주장 속, 논란이 이어지고 있는 사건을 에서 알아봤다. ▶ 병사 자동 진급 폐지 논란 최근 국방부가 장병들의 자동 진급을 사실상 폐지하기로 하며 갑론을박이 벌어졌다. 기존에는 진급 누락을 당하더라도 그 기한이 2개월로 정해져 있었는데, 이를 없애기로 한 것. 이에 따라 진급 심사에서 계속 누락 될 경우, 육군은 최대 15개월 동안 일병으로 지내다가 전역 달에 상병, 전역 날에 병장을 달게 될 수도 있게 되었다. 도입 취지는 ‘군의 전력 강화'지만, 여러 우려가 제기되며 논란의 목소리가 나오는 상황. 군에 입대한 아들을 둔 부모는 국민동의청원 게시판에 제도를 반대하는 글을 게시하는가 하면, 전문가들 사이에서도 진급 심사제 도입을 두고 의견이 교차하는데. 한 전문가는 “진급 누락으로 인해 6개월 이상 병장 진급이 늦어지면 최대 400만 원의 급여 차이가 발생할 것”이라며 문제를 지적했지만 다른 전문가는 “능력에 따라 급여 차이를 두는 건 합당한 일”이라고 주장. 자동진급 제도 폐지를 두고 벌어진 논란을 에서 짚어본다. 세계는 ▶ 열기구 추락 8명 사망 (브라질) 브라질 남부 프라이아그란지, 열기구에서 불길이 솟구치더니 쪼그라들며 그대로 곤두박질치는 영상이 전역에 전파됐다. 지난 21일, 관광용 열기구에 불이 붙어 추락하는 사고가 발생한 것. 사고 당시 열기구 바구니에서 갑작스러운 화재가 발생. 이에 조종사는 급히 열기구를 하강시키면서 승객들에게 지면에 가까워지면 뛰어내릴 것을 지시했고, 조종사를 포함한 13명은 뛰어내리는 데 성공했지만, 나머지 8명은 탈출에 실패해 목숨을 잃었다. 프라이아그란지 지역은 협곡 지형과 절벽 경관을 보기 위해 열기구 체험이 활발한 관광 명소로 참담한 소식은 전국을 뒤흔들었다. 정확한 사고 원인은 조사 중이지만, 조종사의 진술에 따르면 열기구의 예비 점화 버너에서 불꽃이 튀며 내부로 번지기 시작했다는데. 불과 며칠 전에도 상파울루 주에서도 33명을 태운 열기구가 추락해 1명이 숨지고 11명이 다치는 사고가 발생한 바 있다. 잇따른 사고에 브라질 대통령까지 열기구 안전 문제에 주목, 대책 마련에 나섰다는데. 자세한 상황, 현지 교민을 통해 들어본다. ▶ 축제 총격 사건 범인은 10대 (미국) 지난 15일 밤, 미국 유타주에서 열린 축제 현장에 갑작스러운 총성이 울려 퍼졌다. 축제의 환희가 순식간에 참극으로 뒤바뀐 것. 무차별적인 총격으로 10대 소년과 생후 8개월 영아, 임신 8주 차였던 40대 여성이 목숨을 잃었고, 부상자도 속출했다. 범인의 정체는 겨우 16살의 소년. 현장에서 체포된 그는 지역 갱단 소속으로 확인됐으며, 경찰은 갱단 간 갈등에 따른 보복성 범행일 가능성에 무게를 두고 수사 중이다. 청소년 갱단 문제는 미국 사회가 오랜 시간 씨름해 온 고질적인 문제. 도시의 정체성과 문화 다양성을 기념하던 축제에서 벌어진 끔찍한 총기 난사 사건은, 그 어두운 현실을 다시금 드러냈다. 자세한 상황, 현지 교민을 통해 알아본다. ▶ 부실 급식 논란 (일본) 밥과 된장국, 우유, 그리고 닭튀김 한 조각. 최근 일본 후쿠오카시의 한 초등학교 급식 사진이 SNS에 공개되며 ‘부실 급식' 논란이 일고 있다. 이에, 후쿠오카시 교육위원회는 “그릇이 커서 닭튀김이 작아 보였다”라는 해명을 내놨지만, 오히려 빈축을 사고 있는 상황. 논란은 전국으로 확산해 도쿄, 오키나와 등지에서도 급식 사진이 잇따라 공개되며, 실태를 둘러싼 비판 여론이 커지고 있다. 최근 쌀값 급등을 비롯해 초밥, 커피 원두 등 외식 물가가 줄줄이 상승하는 가운데, 급식에 들어가는 원재료비 역시 영향을 받고 있다는 분석이다. 그러나 한국과 달리 일본은 학부모가 급식비의 상당 부분을 부담하는 구조. 특히 논란이 제기된 후쿠오카시의 경우, 급식비가 10년 넘게 동결된 상태로, 급식비를 올리자니 학부모의 부담이 커지고, 그대로 두자니 부실 급식을 피할 수 없는 진퇴양난의 상황이다. 고공행진 일본의 물가, 그 여파가 아이들의 식판 위에도 영향을 미치고 있는 것인데. 현지 교민을 통해 그 현실을 들어본다. ▶ 세계 황당 사건 1. 중국에서 술을 마신 남성들이 음주 운전 단속을 피하고자 차량을 직접 밀며 귀가하는 모습이 포착돼, SNS에서 격렬한 논쟁이 벌어지고 있다. 2. 하와이의 고유 조류를 감염병으로부터 보호하기 위해 거대한 드론을 이용해 모기떼를 살포한 과학자들의 이색 방법이 화제다. 쩐(錢) PLUS ▶ 감성을 공략 연 매출 10억 원 자영업자가 넘쳐나는 요즘, 특색 있는 인테리어는 하나의 승부수다. 그 틈새를 파고들어 감성 있는 인테리어로 수억 원의 매출을 올리고 있다는 김진솔씨. 실용음악 학원을 운영하던 그는 코로나로 생계에 위협을 느끼던 중, 우연히 본 네온사인에 호기심이 생겨 직접 사업을 시작했다는데. 그 당시 국내에선 네온사인 인테리어가 활성화되지 않은 상황. 진솔 씨는 독학으로 네온사인 제작방식을 하나하나 터득, 자신만의 개성이 담긴 작품들을 만들게 됐다. 그의 네온사인은 기존의 유리관 방식이 아닌 실리콘 소재를 사용해 깨질 위험이 적고, 글자 표현도 훨씬 깔끔한 것이 특징. 게다가 실외 설치까지 고려해 방수 기능도 갖췄다. 돌 반지를 팔아 모은 400만 원으로 시작한 사업은 현재 연 매출 10억 원 규모로 성장했다. 위기를 기회로 바꾼 그의 특별한 성공 스토리를 에서 전한다. 서울 도봉구 도당로 145 3F 왼편/ ☎0507-1322-0722 연예뉴스 ▶ ‘약물 운전' 조사받은 이경규 개그맨 이경규가 약물 운전 혐의에 대해 경찰에 출석해 조사를 받았다. 지난 8일 이경규는 타인의 차량을 운전해 절도로 신고가 됐는데, 이에 대해 자신의 차종과 동일해 벌어진 해프닝이었다고 해명한 바 있다. 당시 현장에서 간이시약 검사 결과 약물 양성 반응이 확인돼 약물 운전 혐의로 입건됐다. 경찰 조사를 마치고 나온 이경규는 국과수 검사 결과 공황장애 치료를 위해 처방받은 약물이 확인됐다며 약을 먹고 운전하면 안 된다는 사실을 알지 못했다고 말했다. ▶ 뉴진스, ‘독자 활동 금지' 법원 가처분 확정 걸그룹 뉴진스 멤버들의 독자 활동을 금지한 법원의 가처분 결정이 확정됐다. 법조계에 따르면 뉴진스 멤버 5명은 24일까지 재항고장을 제출하지 않았다. 앞서 법원은 어도어가 뉴진스를 상대로 제기한 간접강제 신청도 받아들여 독자 활동을 할 경우 뉴진스 각 멤버별로 위반행위 1회당 10억 원을 어도어에 지급하라고 결정했다. 이번 가처분과 별개로 어도어가 뉴진스 멤버들을 상대로 낸 전속계약 유효 확인 본안 소송은 현재 1심 진행 중으로 3차 변론 기일은 다음 달 말 진행될 예정이다. ▶ 월드 투어 중 ‘스트레이 키즈' 인터뷰 월드 투어 중인 스트레이 키즈가 모닝와이드에 인사를 전했다. K 팝 단일 투어 역대 최다 모객 신기록을 예고한 멤버들의 소감과 가장 기억에 남는 무대를 들어보고 지금까지 스키즈가 기록한 K 팝 역대 기록을 되돌아본다. 또 투어 중에도 앨범 작업을 한다는 멤버들의 자체제작돌 이야기부터 올해로 예정된 앨범 발매 계획까지 함께 전한다.

Dr. Svala Ísfeld Ólafsdóttir dósent, við lagadeild Háskólans í Reykjavík, kom í þáttinn í dag og sagði frá Ráðstefnu um vernd barna gegn ofbeldi á heimilinu sem hún stóð að í HR í byrjun júní.

Svala sagði frá því sem á ráðstefnunni kom fram og frá hennar erindi um rannsókn hennar um kynferðisbrot gegn börnum framin innan skjólveggja heimilisins. Kristinn Guðmundsson sér um matreiðsluþættina Soð sem sýndir eru í sjónvarpinu hér á RÚV, hann sagði okkur í dag frá viðburðum sem hann stendur fyrir og kallar Matarsaga Reykjaness í fimm réttum.

Galway Senior Camogie Mgr. Cathal Murray chats to CRKC (Post v KK) 21.06.2025

On this episode of The Karen Kenney Show, we're discussing something that so many people struggle with - Asking for help.I'm sharing a powerful passage from Marcus Aurelius' "Meditations" that totally changed my perspective.He basically wrote that we shouldn't be ashamed to need support - just like a soldier who's been wounded might need a comrade to lend a helping hand.Growing up in a blue-collar family, I learned early on that asking for help seemed like weakness.But here's a truth: We're not born knowing how to do every single thing! Remember when we were babies and little kids? We needed help with EVERYTHING - from tying our shoes to brushing our teeth to making a sandwich!So why do we suddenly think that we should know how to handle all of life's complex challenges all by ourselves?I share how trauma and tough upbringings can make us behave in hyper-independent ways – where we hate to ask for ask and definitely don't want to feel like we're “bothering” people.We can also develop this kind of shield that says, "I've got this," when sometimes, we really don't.

On this episode of The Karen Kenney Show, I'm diving into why we shouldn't be "parrots" – just mindlessly repeating the things we're told, the words we read, or what we hear in our environment - without thinking for ourselves. Drawing from some personal stories about actual parrots and my experiences working with author Marianne Williamson, I share how important it is to develop your own unique voice and point-of-view.I discuss how we often unconsciously repeat sayings and stories from our childhood, family of origin, or the media, without ever even questioning them.Whether it's religious dogma, political views, or random so called "facts" we've heard online, I invite people to do their homework, to dig deeper, to spend some time with yourself, and figure out what you truly think, feel, and believe.The world doesn't need another “carbon copy” of what's already out there - it needs YOU! Your unique experiences, insights, and one-of-a-kind perspectives are invaluable.So, I encourage us all to be curious, ask questions, challenge inherited narratives, and have the courage to speak our authentic truth, even if it means standing out from the familiar crowd.My hope is to inspire you to be the first ever version of yourself, not a watered-down replica of somebody else.Whether you're dealing with old family stories, professional expectations, or societal pressures, remember: your individual voice matters.So, let's stop parroting and start exploring what YOU really think and feel!KK'S KEY TAKEAWAYS:•​ Don't mindlessly repeat beliefs without understanding their true origin.•​ Question everything you've been taught, especially childhood-inherited narratives.•​ Your unique perspective is valuable.•​ Research deeply and gather your own empirical evidence.•​ The world needs your authentic voice, not some watered-down version of somebody else.•​ Be courageous enough to develop and share your original thoughts.•​ Verify sources and information before repeating what you've read or heard.•​ Your individual experiences create a perspective that no one else has.•​ Continuously learn, grow, and refine your understanding of the greater world.• The Nest - Group Mentoring Program BIO:Karen Kenney is a certified Spiritual Mentor, Writer, Integrative Change Worker, Coach and Hypnotist.

Volt már sok elborult kópé a KK korábbi adásaiban, de Grath talán most rekordot döntött. Ismerkedjetek meg az írországi Adolphus Cooke-kal, a hórihorgas Billy Dunne-nal és a dagadt Tom Cruise-zal, továbbá mindenféle, a cselekmény szempontjából fontos állattal a rókától a libán át az ír szetterig. Ugyan e szereplőknek együttvéve is csekély a történelmi jelentősége, de bizarrságban nehéz felvenni velük a versenyt - avagy jót tesz-e egy kiterjedt birtok életének, ha a vezetője egy krumplin és fán nevelkedett, a lélekvándorlásban hívő zabigyerek lesz? Hogy a tanulság mi, azt talán csak a Coen testvérek tudnák kifejezni egy szokásosnál is groteszkebb filmmel. 

On this episode of The Karen Kenney Show, I dive deep into what makes relationships and ​other things truly "built to last​." ​Starting with ​a story about my trusty 25-year-old vacuum cleaner that's still going strong​, I share how in our fast-paced world of disposable everything, we've lost the art of investing in quality products ​and connections that stand the test of time. I break down ​some of the key ingredients for lasting relationships, which I call ​t​he "C's": consistent effort, clear communication, connection, compromise, and constructive conflict resolution. Think of it like a relationship recipe - you need trust, mutual respect, reliability, appreciation, and the willingness to grow together. No relationship is perfect, but the magic happens when both people are committed to showing up and doing the work. Emotional intelligence is ​for sure a ​wicked big game-changer. I ​also talk about how we need to be willing to be vulnerable, truly listen to each other, and ​do our best to have empathy. This means creating space for all emotions, not just the comfortable ones.Whether it's with a partner, friend, or family member, relationships thrive when we're willing to see and hear each other authentically.The bottom line?Love is the foundation, but love isn't just words - it's ​also your actions. It's about being willing to ​sometimes compromise, ​consider forgiv​i​ng the small stuff, and ​to continuously invest in ​individual and shared growth. Not every relationship is meant to last forever, but when both people are committed to loving each other and themselves, magic can happen​!Remember, ​we want ​the foundation of ​our personal and professional relationships ​to be constructed on rock, not sand - ​so it behooves us to show up as solid, steady, and ​intentionally built to last. KK'S KEY TAKEAWAYS:•​ Invest in quality products and relationships that stand the test of time.•​ Consistent effort and clear communication are crucial for lasting connections.•​ Trust, mutual respect, and reliability form the foundation of strong relationships.•​ Practice emotional intelligence by being vulnerable and truly listening to others.•​ Appreciate your partner and express gratitude for their everyday actions.•​ Commit to both individual goals and shared growth in your relationships.•​ Compromise and consider forgiving the small things that don't truly matter.•​ Love is more than just saying the words - it's also about congruent actions.•​ Not all relationships are meant to last.•​ Prioritize connection, empathy, and continuous personal development in your partnerships.• The Nest - Group Mentoring Program BIO:Karen Kenney is a certified Spiritual Mentor, Writer, Integrative Change Worker, Coach and Hypnotist.

On this episode of The Karen Kenney Show, I dive into something we all might bump-up against: those little "death wish" moments in our lives where we're not taking the best care of ourselves. It all started with a crazy motorcycle ride I witnessed on 93 North, where this kid was weaving in and out of traffic at 120 miles an hour - totally reckless and dangerous! That got me thinking about how we all have our own versions of the ol' "death wish.” Maybe it's ignoring medical advice, continuing unhealthy habits, or not prioritizing our physical and mental well-being. I'm talking about those choices we make that deep down we know aren't serving us.Things like not managing chronic conditions, skipping out on exercise, eating like crap, not getting enough rest, or creating unnecessary financial stress. The real heartbeat of this episode is about having self-awareness and then breaking those patterns.We know that our brains love familiar territory, which is why changing habits can feel so tough. But here's the deal: we have more control than we think!By understanding how our neural pathways work and making small, consistent changes, over time - we can actually rewire our brain and create healthier habits. Pretty cool, right?So, this is an invitation to hit pause and to take a look at the different buckets in your life. Where are you playing it kinda' loose? What small choices are you making now that might make a big impact on your long-term health and happiness down the road? What buckets/areas could use a little bit more of your positive attention?This isn't about judgment - it's about being curious and loving yourself enough to make better choices. Remember, every tiny step counts, and you are totally worth the effort! xoKK'S KEY TAKEAWAYS:• Our daily choices can slowly impact our long-term health.• Reckless behavior isn't always dramatic, but even subtle stuff can be dangerous.• The brain naturally prefers familiar patterns.• Small, consistent actions can create new neural pathways in the brain over time.• Self-awareness is the first step to making those meaningful changes.• Resistance is a normal part of the human experience.• Our health involves different buckets - mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual.• Your personal development work affects more than just you.• Compassionate self-reflection is more powerful than harsh self-criticism.• Prioritizing self-care is an act of love.• The Nest - Group Mentoring ProgramBIO:Karen Kenney is a certified Spiritual Mentor, Writer, Integrative Change Worker, Coach and Hypnotist.

On this episode of The Karen Kenney Show, we're diving into one of my favorite concepts from Anne Lamott's best-selling book, Bird by Bird.This simple, but life-changing strategy has been wicked helpful not only for me, but for my mentoring clients, too!It's one of the key ways that I've learned to approach and tackle overwhelming to-do lists without totally losing my mind. The core idea comes from a story that Anne wrote of in her book about a challenge her brother was facing as a kid, and how her father encouraged him with these now infamous words, “Bird by bird, buddy.”I share how this concept can be a total game-changer for you too, especially when you're facing an intimidating project – which can be anything from cleaning out a newly deceased parent's house to helping your kid apply to college, or learning a new skill or trying to start a podcast, etc.Whether you're an entrepreneur struggling with some fancy fandangled tech stuff or someone feeling frozen in their tracks by a complex task, the "Bird by Bird" method is your secret weapon against overwhelm and procrastination.The key is to stop looking at the entire mountain of work ahead and instead to simply focus on just the next teeny-tiny step you can take.Print out that PDF form, open the website, take a deep breath, type one sentence, do just one small thing to get you moving forward and gaining momentum.I'm all about keeping our nervous system calm and not letting fear and anxiety hijack our progress.Sometimes that means we've gotta' break things down to the absolute smallest action or even calling in help from someone who finds that “daunting to you” task easy.My biggest takeaway?We're capable of so much more when we're not in fight-or-flight mode. So please don't beat yourself up or get stuck in a shame spiral, and remember: you can handle anything by taking it “bird by bird.”KEY TAKEAWAYS:• Breaking big projects into tiny steps helps reduce overwhelm.• Try to focus on one small task at a time.• Avoid time traveling / future-tripping.• Your nervous system might respond better to incremental progress.• Ask for help from a smarty-pants when a task feels too complicated.• Don't shame yourself when you're feeling stuck or frustrated.• Most overwhelming projects become manageable when approached step-by-step.• Recognize when you're entering a habitual stress response and hit pause.• Remember that many tasks seem harder in anticipation than in execution.• Repeat the mantra "Bird by Bird" when feeling overwhelmed.• The Nest - Group Mentoring Program BIO:Karen Kenney is a certified Spiritual Mentor, Writer, Integrative Change Worker, Coach and Hypnotist.

On this episode of The Karen Kenney Show, we talk about the true meaning behind my "Stop Playing Dumb" t-shirt and its powerful message!Spoiler alert: it's not about politics or social issues, but about recognizing and remembering your true spiritual nature. I dive into how we often suffer because we get stuck in over identifying with our bodies, our past mistakes, and perceived limitations.But the thing is: you're not just a "meat puppet", some ol' bag of bones with a long list of screwups. You are a gosh-dang child of God, a part of the indivisible Universe, an extension of the Divine, and Love incarnate!My mission with this episode?To help you to “stop playing dumb” about who and what you really are.One of the biggest reasons we resist owning our power is fear.Sometimes we're afraid that if we actually accept how awesome we are, we'll then be shit-out-of excuses for not finally doing “the thing”!Whether that thing is pursuing your dreams, writing that book, asking for help, leaving a bad relationship, speaking your truth, forgiving yourself, or (fill in the blank).Part of recognizing our true nature means that we're willing to take responsibility for our own internal experience.My invitation to you is simple: let's begin by putting on our "big people pants"

On this episode of The Karen Kenney Show, I discuss a fun and helpful idea that I've been sharing with my 1:1 clients and Nest community.It's a concept I call, "Fine, Define, Refine" – which basically suggests that from the start we're totally “fine”, perfect, and awesome!But then the crazy world gets a hold of us, life stuff happens, and people start slapping labels on you that maybe leave you feeling not-so-fine. But here's the thing - those pesky and sometimes hurtful labels aren't the real you!One of the ways we get our mojo and magic back is when we start to "re-fine" ourselves. This isn't about fixing what we perceive as broken. This is about remembering who we truly are.It's about looking at ourselves with love, ditching those external definitions, and reconnecting with our innate, Divine essence. We're not broken - we just temporarily feel disconnected from our true selves. My little love reminder from my heart to yours?You came in perfect.The world might have tried to define you, but you have the power to redefine and remember your inherent value. You're not just good enough - you're brilliant, beautiful, and absolutely worthy of love.So, how about we stop beating ourselves up, and start celebrating who we really are! KEY TAKEAWAYS:• You are inherently "fine", worthy, and lovable• External influences will try to define you• You can refine yourself through compassion and self-love• Always remember your eternal, Divine, spiritual essence• Those pesky labels are not your true identity• The Nest - Group Mentoring Program BIO:Karen Kenney is a certified Spiritual Mentor, Writer, Integrative Change Worker, Coach and Hypnotist.

On this episode of The Karen Kenney Show, ​w​e dive into a question that​ I wish was on more people's mind​s: Why do we do the things we do? I kick things off with a story about a family's Easter tradition - where generations ​of women kept ​d​oing the same damn thing - simply because that's how it had always been done, ​because no one question​ed the original reason. This got me thinking about how we inherit ​certain beliefs, habits, ​stories, and ways of doing things from our families, ​the culture, and ​our childhood experiences. Whether it's politics, religion, relationships, or daily routines, we often follow patterns without ever stopping to ask, "Does this actually make sense ​to me and for me right now?" It's like we're ​sometimes running on autopilot, repeating ​those inherited scripts without checking if they still serve us.​You know me, I'm all about encouraging ​p​eople (including myself) to become curious investigators of their own lives. Are you following ​all the rules blindly, or are you willing to ask​ "​Why"?​ Why do I do this, say this, think this, believe this? Just because something worked in the past doesn't mean it's ​still the best approach ​for us now. Our lives are constantly evolving, and our strategies​, systems, and stories should evolve with them. ​O​ne of my big takeaway​s? ​We have to challenge our own assumptions​ and be willing to question our beliefs, habits, and automatic​ responses.Whether it's in ​our relationships, ​our work, or ​our personal growth, staying curious and open ​to new ways of seeing, thinking, doing and being can help ​u​s break free from outdated patterns and create more intentional ​and meaningful ways of living.Remember, you're not bound by how things have always been done - you have the power​and the right to choose a different path​! KEY TAKEAWAYS:​•​ We've got to question inherited traditions and family belief systems​.• ​We must challenge why ​w​e do ​the things ​we do without thinking​.• ​It helps to pause and reflect before automatically following ​the rules​.• ​Our personal growth requires ​that we challeng​e our current thought patterns​• ​Have fun experiment​ing with new approaches to old problems​.• Curiosity is the key to ​new and lasting personal transformation​.• The Nest - Group Mentoring Program BIO:Karen Kenney is a certified Spiritual Mentor, Writer, Integrative Change Worker, Coach and Hypnotist.

After Kevin Abel died, and his death was ruled a suicide, Stacie Reeves was scared. Kevin’s friend Jordan said that Stacie told her that Kevin was in serious trouble - that he owed a lot of drug money to people - and that she was planning on talking to police officers about what she knew. One of the officers she spoke with was Jerome LaStraps, an officer Jordan didn't trust. There’s no evidence that Jerome LaStraps did anything wrong, but police did later call him in for questioning about KK’s Corner, asking what he knew, and when he knew it. We’re trying to understand all these relationships, because in Calcasieu Parish, they run deep. Jordan told us about one of her last conversations with Stacie: "Stacie goes, 'Hey, do you know a Jerome LaStraps?' And I looked at her and I said, 'Yes, I do.' And she said, 'Because I've been talking to him about Kevin's case.' And I said, 'Stacey, you don't need to do that. He's dirty.' She said, 'Well, I know who killed Kevin.' And I said, 'Who?'"
