This week, I'm inviting you behind the curtain for a very real, very personal episode.As we officially wrap our 16th season at the studio, I'm sharing the 16 most powerful lessons I've learned from running a brick-and-mortar business—from the early hustle days to the now. The mistakes, the mindset shifts, the marketing wins, and the moments that changed everything.Inside this episode: ✨ Why hiring before you're ready might be the smartest move you make ✨ The onboarding experience your clients are craving (and how to create it) ✨ What happens when you stop trying to do it all yourself ✨ How to build trust in a world that's short on it ✨ And why your success line might not be what you thought it wasIf you're a studio owner who's ever felt the highs and lows of this business, this one's for you.

This is NOT your normal dentist! Dr. Yasamin Roland has re-invented her practice! Sure, you can get cleanings and fillings and all the standard dentistry at the Center for Transformative Dentistry; but Dr. Roland has transformed her vision to focus on the whole body and how dental health relates to it. Oxygen is critical for health and sometimes teeth may impede the flow as jawbones have shrunk as we have evolved. A nice smile is a mental boost to a giver or a recipient. She offers a different approach to dentistry. She provides a broad scope of dental and orthodontic techniques that address underlying causes, not just the symptoms. It's a “whole body approach” that is non-invasive for children and adults alike. There were several "a-ha" moments in here for me, and I am sure there will be for you as well! Have a listen!

OK, so the title is a little dramatic (and abbreviated). It is the title of a book by local author, Susan Moynihan -- 100 Things to Do in Annapolis and the Eastern Shore Before You Die!

Sure, it serves that purpose, but no matter if you are here for a few days, or have lived here your entire life, there will be something unexpected and cool you will discover! We all know about Chick & Ruth's Delly, but how many know about the Modern Stone Age Kitchen in Chestertown? That's the advantage of having a book written by an almost lifelong resident. It's a fast and easy read and is the perfect book to have around the house for when your guests say, "What should we do?" Own an Airbnb? Are you a realtor? Maybe you work at a local hotel?

Pets are family! And no one knows that better than Dr. Megan Martorana. After practicing for many years, Dr. Megan decided to put four wheels under her practice and bring the vet to you. Enter Annapolis Area Mobile Vet! Look it's stressful going to a people doctor. Imagine the stress for a beloved cat or dog? Here, get in this crate... drive around for a while and wham-- some guy in a white coat is poking your butt with a needle. Was it a trip to the vet? Or an abduction! Annapolis Area Mobile Vet takes a different approach. Think of her as your old-time primary care physician. She comes to your home (or wherever your loved one may be) and introduces herself and offers a treat and a belly rub to get acquainted. Once comfortable, your dog or cat can be cared for in the place where they are most comfortable. Need a bonus ? Instead of a quick check by the doc, Dr. Megan will spend as long as it takes to make you and your pet comfortable!Makes perfect sense to me! Do you have a four legged family member? Have a listen!

I hate to break it to you, but we all are getting older. And many of us have older parents and loved ones as well. When it comes time to care for an aging parent or loved one, one of the best choices may be to age-in-place in a familiar home--their own. Enter Interim Healthcare - Annapolis. Today, we speak with Art Dandridge who is the owner of Interim Healthcare - Annapolis headquartered right on Bay Ridge Avenue. We cover a lot of ground about aging in place-from the obvious benefits to the level of care they can provide. We learned that Interim Healthcare can handle a rehab assignment just as easily as they can a 24-7 situation. Maybe you just need a periodic well-check and organizational visit for mom or dad--Interim Healthcare can handle that as well. It is a real peace of mind for a child that may not be local. All of this is handled by a small army of CNAs and GNAs (employees, not contractors) who are overseen by a team of four RNs. And while honest, respectful, and competent care are the hallmarks of Interim Healthcare, they are quickly followed by effective communications. But enough of this... Have a listen!
