Azeez Al-Shaair, Will Anderson Jr and Sheldon Rankins, fresh out of a joint practice with the Las Vegas Raiders, sit down with Chris and talk all things Houston Texans. Azeez details his journey from homelessness to NFL star. He went to the Super Bowl as a rookie with the San Francisco 49ers but was listed as inactive for the game. That decision shaped his mentality as an NFLer, promising to show coaches that they will never feel that they can take him off the field again. Will Anderson and Sheldon Rankins then join Chris to go in-depth on d-line talk. Chris gives Will his flowers as a pass rusher (and Sheldon his flowers for his help in Will's development), and they discuss the Texans' defensive line mindset and their 'show up and fight' mentality.

Chef Olivia Geisler never planned on becoming a chef. Growing up in Ohio, medicine seemed like the logical path. She studied biology and chemistry with plans for a career in healthcare. But an experience in Costa Rica at seventeen, followed by an opportunity inside Mitchell's Ocean Club, introduced her to a completely different world. The kitchen won. Olivia went all in: culinary school, competition teams, restaurant openings, long days, motherhood and eventually the challenge of becoming Executive Chef of The Pearl in Tampa. Today, The Pearl has been recognized by the Michelin Guide three consecutive years. But Olivia doesn't measure success by plaques, titles or what comes next. For her, it's about the journey. The people who believed in her. The cooks she now gets to mentor. The team beside her. And the relentless pursuit of getting a little better every day. In this episode of Walk-In Talk, Chef Olivia Geisler talks about choosing the kitchen over medicine, traveling to Costa Rica at seventeen, becoming a mother while building a culinary career, opening The Pearl, Michelin recognition, mentorship, leadership and why hospitality has always been about people. "The guide isn't what defines us. It's the journey." — Chef Olivia Geisler Takeaways: She didn't grow up planning to be a chef. Medicine was the expected path, but the kitchen was where she felt alive. Costa Rica at 17 was a pivotal experience. It exposed her to food, culture, travel, risk and independence at a formative age. She is wired for challenge. She repeatedly describes herself as relentless, competitive and energized by discomfort. Her career was built through immersion. Culinary school, full-time work, competitions, volunteering, store openings, mentorship. Mentorship is one of the emotional cores of the episode. People invested in her early, and now she feels responsible for doing the same for younger cooks. Motherhood reshaped her ambition without killing it. She learned there are seasons when family has to come first and seasons when she can go full throttle professionally. Opening The Pearl was one of the hardest things she's done. First Executive Chef role, new concept, new team, opening pressures, construction, hiring, systems, all at once. Michelin recognition matters, but it doesn't define her. She is proud of it, but her identity is not built around awards. Her philosophy is rooted in hospitality. The biggest throughline is people, care, intention and giving others a great experience. Her cooking philosophy is deliberate. Nothing is on the plate by accident, down to the carrots, egg, acid, garnish and texture. Her best line may actually be this: "I'm relentlessly passionate about life." Another excellent line is: "The guide isn't what defines us; it's the journey."   The Companies Helping Shape Hospitality Metro Foodservice Solutions - Commercial-grade storage, transport, and workflow systems that help professional kitchens operate efficiently.

Noah Pines spent seven years as a prosecutor in Georgia — weighing sentences, navigating cases, trying to be a fair voice inside a system that does not always reward fairness — before leaving to become a criminal defense attorney and discovering what the justice system looks like from the other side of the courtroom. In this episode of Locked In with Ian Bick, he shares what being a Georgia prosecutor really required of him, why he left after seven years to defend the people he used to prosecute, what working Innocence Project cases and overturning twenty year wrongful conviction sentences actually involved, what the current problems with prosecutors in America actually look like from someone who spent seven years inside that world, and what representing people accused of the worst crimes available actually requires of the attorney who takes those cases. _____________________________________________ #lawyer #criminallaw #prosecutor #truecrimepodcast _____________________________________________ Thank you to CASH APP for sponsoring this episode: Download Cash App Today: https://click.cash.app/ui6m/6pao71et #CashAppPod Cash App is a financial services platform, not a bank.

Ask a question hereWhat does nearly 50 years in the swimming pool industry teach you? According to Jerry Wallace, there are no shortcuts, you never stop learning, and sometimes you need to show up with a rolling suitcase full of textbooks.Natalie Hood sits down with Jerry Wallace, president of Swim Chem and one of the 2026 Talking Pools Podcast Top Ten Pool Industry Mentors. Jerry shares how he entered the family business as a teenager, the mentors who shaped his career, and why mentoring is about leaving the industry better than you found it.Then Jerry puts his decades of water chemistry, plaster, and expert-witness experience to work busting some persistent myths about calcium nodules. Are they caused by excessive calcium hardness? Are they simply another form of scale? Can adjusting the water chemistry stop them?Jerry explains why calcium nodules are typically associated with voids, delamination, pinholes, or cracks beneath the plaster surface, not a pool professional's failure to maintain the water. His message to service professionals is blunt: educate yourself, document your work, demand an explanation, and stop allowing people to steamroll you.Jerry also discusses why manufacturers need to listen more closely to service professionals, what younger professionals bring to the industry, and the three groups every successful business must protect before looking at the profit-and-loss statement: family, employees, and customers.And, because this is Talking Pools, Natalie settles the critically important question of whether pineapple belongs on pizza.In This Episode How Jerry entered the pool industry at age 16  The mentors who helped shape his career  Why mentorship is about life lessons, not merely technical knowledge  How to recognize when someone is no longer coachable  Why there are no shortcuts to long-term success  The difference between calcium scale and calcium nodules  Why high calcium hardness does not selectively create isolated nodules  How voids, delamination, cracks, and pinholes contribute to nodule formation  Why changing the water chemistry treats the symptom, not the underlying problem  How service professionals can defend themselves against unsupported blame  Why pool professionals must become experts in their trade  What manufacturers misunderstand about real-world equipment retrofits  Why the industry needs stronger communication between engineers and field professionals  What younger generations are bringing to the pool industry  The three priorities Jerry's father used to measure a successful year  Jerry's controversial but unwavering defense of pineapple on pizza Jerry's Message to Pool ProfessionalsDo not assume a calcium nodule is your fault simply because someone points at the water chemistry. Test the water, investigate the surface, document the evidence, ask for the actual mechanism, and make the person assigning blame show their work.If you are going to work as a pool service professional, become an expert and stand up for yourself. Nobody else is going to do it for you.#TalkingPoolsPodcast #PoolIndustry #PoolService #SwimmingPools #PoolChemistry #CalciumNodules #PoolPlaster #Mentorship #PoolProfessionals #WaterChemistry #PoolEducation #SwimChem #JerryWallace #NatalieHood #MythbustingWednesday Support the showThank you so much for listening!

Why do we spend so much time worrying about the risks of making a change, but rarely consider the risks of doing nothing?In Part Two of Why Podiatrists Play It Safe, I explore 13 more reasons podiatrists resist change, even when they know their practice, career, or personal development could benefit from doing something differently.We look at the fear of being judged by your team, getting burnt by a previous experience, waiting for evidence before experimenting, comparing yourself with others, worrying about becoming too commercial and being afraid to stand out. I also explain why trying something new doesn't mean you're committing to it forever. Most business experiments can be tested, adjusted or reversed.But perhaps the biggest issue is that we often overestimate the downside of change while underestimating the cost of doing nothing. Not increasing your fees, improving your systems, learning new technology, developing your leadership skills or changing ineffective marketing all have a cost.And finally, there's an important distinction between discomfort and danger. Something feeling uncomfortable doesn't necessarily mean you shouldn't do it. Sometimes discomfort is simply evidence that you're doing something you haven't mastered yet.If you haven't listened to Episode 433, Part One, you can go back and hear the first 12 reasons, but you don't need to listen to the episodes in order. Together, the two episodes give you 25 reasons podiatrists play it safe and plenty to think about regarding where you might be playing it safe yourself.For additional show notes, please visit the Podiatry Legends Podcast WebsiteConnect With MeIf you'd like to learn more about being a guest on the show, my best email address is tyson@podiatrylegends.com.Become A Sponsor - Are you looking for an alternative way to be noticed by podiatrists?  Consider sponsoring the Podiatry Legends Podcast; many sponsorship opportunities are available.  Please email me or visit the Podiatry Legends Website to learn more. And if you've enjoyed this episode, I'd really appreciate it if you left a review on your favourite podcast platform.

Dr. Butler walks through four current projects including the networking breakfast, now in its third year with over 300 registrants, a manuscript on navigating conflict in surgical training, a critical review of the SCORE curriculum through a DEI lens, and a drowning prevention article highlighting disparate outcomes in Black and Indigenous communities.Dr. Strong then takes the spotlight to describe the DEI pipeline program, now entering its fifth year, which pairs high school students from underrepresented backgrounds with trauma surgeon mentors and provides a structured curriculum covering everything from resume building to suture skills. The episode closes with a candid conversation on workplace violence in trauma settings, why it is more visible now than ever, and what prevention, mitigation, and post-event support need to look like across surgical institutions. If you will be at the annual meeting in Dallas, the pipeline program skills day and networking breakfast are not to be missed.

Has your spiritual growth hit a plateau? Amy and I are back with our friends Cesar Delgado and Sam Tenney to share their journeys and the transformative power of honest feedback in spiritual growth. We aren't just talking about surface-level advice; we're getting real about trust, submission, and the beauty of doing life together. I'm sharing how honest, sometimes difficult feedback is actually the fuel that refines your character and sharpens your skills. If you've ever wondered why you aren't growing, this conversation might just be the wake-up call you've been waiting for. You'll hear about the power of personal investment and how biblical insights can completely shift your perspective on your calling. Mentorship isn't about knowing everything - it's about the transformative power of vulnerability.

The outdoor industry is growing faster than ever. More creators, influencers, podcasts, brands, and voices are entering the space every day. And while that growth is exciting, it also raises an important question: What kind of industry are we building?In this solo episode of Fall Obsession Podcast, Sam takes a look at the two very different sides of the outdoor industry. On one side are the people who believe in community—those who celebrate others, share opportunities, support smaller creators, build relationships, and genuinely want to see the people around them succeed. On the other are those who view everything through a transactional lens, constantly asking, “What can you do for me?”This isn't about calling out specific people or brands. It's about culture, character, and the kind of outdoor community we want to create. Follower counts, sponsorships, and reach don't tell the whole story. True influence isn't always measured in numbers—sometimes it's measured by the people you encourage, the opportunities you create, and the lives you impact.The outdoors has always been bigger than one person. It's about sharing experiences, passing down traditions, helping one another, and bringing people together. Because there should always be room for another person at the table—and maybe it's time we start making the table bigger.Fall Obsession Podcast is sponsored by:Hoot Camo Company (https://hootcamo.com/) - use code "fallobsession15" to save with HootBear River Archery (https://www.bearriverarchery.com/) - use code "fallobsession" when shopping online with Bear RiverTactacam Reveal Cameras (https://www.tactacam.com/)The Outdoor Call Radio App (https://www.theoutdoorcallradio.com/)

Episode 236 with Linda Latsko Lockhart, Founder and CEO of Global Give Back Circle, an organisation focused on expanding education, financial inclusion and pathways to dignified work for women and girls across Africa. Since 2006, Global Give Back Circle has supported more than 6,000 girls through tertiary education, engaged more than 4,000 mentors and built programmes across Kenya, Rwanda, Uganda, Tanzania and Ghana.At the centre of its economic empowerment work is HER Lab, a model designed around the realities facing young women in rural communities. Rather than treating education as the end goal, HER Lab connects vocational skills, mentorship and personal development with employment, entrepreneurship, financial inclusion and access to markets. It also works with families and community leaders to address the social expectations that can prevent women from participating fully in economic life. Through its Economic Empowerment 4 HER partnership with Mastercard Foundation, Global Give Back Circle is now scaling the model across rural Kenya, with the ambition of reaching 3,000 young women directly by 2028.In this episode, Linda explains why women's economic empowerment requires much more than simply providing education or vocational training. She explores what Global Give Back Circle has learned from two decades of working with women and girls, why entrepreneurship has become such an important pathway for rural women, and how access to finance, markets and supportive communities determines whether skills actually translate into income.What We Discuss With LindaIs Africa underestimating the economic cost of keeping millions of women out of work, entrepreneurship and financial systems?Why 76 percent of the HER Lab boarding graduates surveyed became entrepreneurs, and what that reveals about the shortage of formal employment opportunities in rural Africa.Why teaching someone to start a business is not enough, and why access to real customers and commercially viable value chains matters more.What happened when attitudes towards women working in construction shifted from just 19 percent to 94 percent in the surrounding community.Could artificial intelligence widen the economic divide facing rural African women, or give them an opportunity to leapfrog it?Did you miss my previous episode where I discuss Why Isn't Africa Turning Its Science Into Billion Dollar Companies?

In this Beyond Real Estate episode of So You Want to Be a Real Estate Agent, Meredith Fogle sits down with Lauren Kerschen, founder and team leader of DFW's Finest Real Estate Group, to explore what happens when you build a real estate team with a bigger mission: not simply producing more transactions, but developing better agents and elevating the level of professionalism they bring to their clients.Lauren shares how she is intentionally building a team where mentorship, transparency, collaboration, and professional development are part of the value proposition. Rather than fearing that developing great agents will eventually cause them to leave, she believes in making the value of the team so tangible that successful agents understand exactly what they gain by being part of it - and how she's using AI to help make that vision possible.

In this episode, Colonel Chevasco “Chevy” Cook sits down with MWI's Charlie Faint to recount a career that took him from a South Carolina JROTC classroom to West Point and then on to combat deployments, the psychological operations career field, academia, and ultimately the Joint Staff, where he advised senior national security leaders on nonkinetic effects. Chevy reflects on how early mentors, wartime service, and unconventional assignments taught him to see military problems from increasingly broader perspectives, describing his philosophy that luck is really the combination of preparation and opportunity. He discusses the distinctive role of psychological operations, where influence and communication can accomplish national-level missions without relying on lethal force, as well as his work integrating capabilities such as cyber, space, deception, and information operations to provide strategic options for national leaders. The conversation also explores his commitment to education, professional writing, character development, and mentorship, including his belief that leaders must be capable communicators and continually level up as their responsibilities grow. Chevy closes by encouraging young leaders to understand who they authentically are without allowing their present identity to limit who they can become, emphasizing a career-long theme of preparation, intellectual growth, service, and investment in others.

For years, I struggled with what it truly meant to be a man, trying on different masks and pushing extreme boundaries just to figure out who I was. It was not until I hit a self-induced rock bottom and experienced the overwhelming responsibility of fatherhood that I began to understand the real path to male maturity. In this episode, I unpack why so many men feel lost today and why confronting our own powerlessness is an essential part of initiation. Join me as I share how embracing mentorship, rebuilding trust in brotherhood, and modeling strength for the next generation can help us transition from boyhood into true manhood.SHOW HIGHLIGHTS00:00:00 - The Search for Worth and Potency00:01:22 - Trying On Masks and Pushing Boundaries00:03:48 - Three Core Truths of Manhood00:05:29 - Rock Bottom and Psycho-Spiritual Initiation00:08:49 - Confronting Powerlessness and the Need for Mentors00:11:50 - Returning to Serve the Community00:12:42 - Fatherhood and Unbearable Love00:15:39 - Raising Boys in a Lost Culture00:17:52 - Reclaiming Brotherhood and Trusting Other Men00:20:07 - Mentorship as Purpose and Duty00:22:13 - The Humility of Being a Student00:25:39 - Growing Deeper Into Who You Are***Tired of feeling like you're never enough?

What if the reason you're struggling to create something new isn't because you don't know how to manifest — but because you're still identifying with the version of yourself that created your current reality?In this episode of Fran's Wisdom, we're going deeper into one of the most important pieces of conscious creation: your identity.You can desire more money, deeper love, greater success, a new business, or a completely different life — but if your thoughts, beliefs, expectations, and choices are still rooted in an old version of you, you may continue recreating what you've already outgrown.Manifestation isn't simply about changing what you have. It's about changing who you are being as you create.In this episode, you'll explore: How your self-identity influences what you believe is possible Why old beliefs can keep recreating familiar circumstances The connection between self-concept and manifestation How to recognize when you're operating from an outdated identity Why expansion can require you to release familiar ways of thinking and behaving How to begin embodying the version of yourself who is available for more The difference between wanting a new reality and becoming available for it This isn't about pretending to be someone you're not. It's about allowing yourself to evolve beyond the identity that was built around old experiences, limitations, expectations, and survival patterns.Your next level may require a new way of thinking, choosing, receiving, and moving through the world.Because you cannot consistently create from an identity you've already outgrown.The life you're asking for may require you to become available to a new version of yourself.Few Things to Support You On Your Journey

You've hit the same income ceiling more than once now, and every time you've answered it the same way. You worked harder. It didn't move.So this episode isn't about strategy, because strategy was never what was holding you. It's the five patterns I see in almost every capable woman who's stuck at a number well below what she's worth, and how each one quietly runs her business for her.In this episode, you'll learn:Why your state of being is the reason nothing new is landing, and what all that over-delivering is actually doing for your income The stress response you've been running your business on for years, and why it was never built for women in the first placeThe client you've already outgrown, and why letting her go feels like a betrayal even while it's keeping you out of the room you wantWhat the words "no pressure at all" at the end of a message are really doing to the saleThe reason a record month arrives as anxiety instead of celebration, and what your body is protecting you from when it doesThis is part three of the high value woman series.If any of this landed too close to home, my Private 1:1 Accelerator is open by application.

But God designed your brain with the ability to change. Through renewing your mind, speaking Scripture, and intentionally declaring who you are in Christ, you can begin creating new thought patterns filled with faith, hope, peace, and joy. In this message, Kathy DeGraw shares her personal journey of overcoming a negative mindset and explains the power of biblical declarations. Proverbs 18:21 reminds us that death and life are in the power of the tongue. What are your words producing in your life? Start declaring: I am valuable. I am healed. I have peace. I have hope. I have a sound mind. I am blessed. Even when your emotions haven't caught up yet, continue speaking God's Word until faith rises within you. Your words matter. Your thoughts matter. Renew your mind, speak life, align with heaven, and begin declaring what God says about you. #RenewYourMind #BiblicalDeclarations #SpeakLife #PositiveThinking #FaithInGod **Connect with Us** - Website: https://www.kathydegrawministries.org/ - Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/kathydegraw/ - Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kathydegraw/  Podcast - Subscribe to our YouTube channel and listen to Kathy's Podcast called Prophetic Spiritual Warfare, or on Spotify at https://open.spotify.com/show/3mYPPkP28xqcTzdeoucJZu or Apple podcasts at https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/prophetic-spiritual-warfare/id1474710499 **Recommended Resources:** - Receive a free prayer pdf on The Power of your Words at https://www.kathydegrawministries.org/declarations-download/ - Receive a free prayer pdf on Anointing Oil at https://www.kathydegrawministries.org/anointingoil/ - Kathy's training, mentoring and e-courses on Spiritual Warfare, Deliverance and the Prophetic: https://training.kathydegrawministries.org/ - Healed At Last ~ Overcome Sickness and Receive your Physical Healing: https://www.kathydegrawministries.org/healed-at-last/ - Mind Battles – Root Out Mental Triggers to Release Peace!: https://www.kathydegrawministries.org/product/mind-battles-pre-order-available-january-2023/ -Kathy has several books available on Amazon or kathydegrawministries.org **Support Kathy DeGraw Ministries:** - Give a one-time love offering or consider partnering with us for $15, $35, $75 or any amount!

Lonny's childhood was marked by poverty and family challenges—a world without spiritual foundation. Yet even as a little girl, standing at the door of a church longing to belong, God was working behind the scenes, preparing her heart for a future transformation.Once an atheist, Lonny now reflects on the power of God to heal generational wounds, rebuild families, and provide for every need—even at the kitchen table during desperate nights as a single mom.Today, she shares about the struggles of motherhood, her unexpected love story, learning to let go as her daughter spread her wings, and the importance of finding community and mentorship. Her story is a testament to God's faithfulness: how He places the right people in our lives, redeems brokenness, and calls us to reach out to others.If motherhood has left you feeling alone, overwhelmed, or unsure how your past fits with your future, this episode will remind you that you are never alone—and that God always has a hope-filled plan, just for you.

In this episode, hosts Brooke and Chad sit down to talk about what mentorship really means to them and why it matters so much, both in life and in their work with SPARK. They dig into the different forms a mentor can take: a teacher, a boss, an older sibling, or someone who never fits neatly into any of those categories at all. Sometimes the most influential mentors show up in the most unlikely places. Brooke and Chad share who their own biggest mentors have been and how those relationships shaped the people they are today. They talk about how mentors move in and out of our lives at different stages, showing up exactly when we need guidance and stepping back once we've found our footing. A good mentor doesn't hand you the answers. Instead, they point you in the right direction and help you realize the confidence and strength that was already inside you. The conversation also turns local, with Brooke and Chad reflecting on SPARK Mentoring Programs and what it looks like to be a mentor in this community every day. At the heart of it all is presence: showing up, staying connected, and letting someone know they're not navigating things alone. Tune in for an honest, heartfelt conversation about the people who guide us, and how each of us has the power to do the same for someone else.

Dexter emphasizes the importance of coalition-building and reminds leaders that even the strongest individuals and organizations can accomplish more when they work with trusted partners.The conversation ultimately returns to purpose, mentorship, and taking care of people. Mark shares the story of an executive protection agent whose life changed after being given an opportunity, while Dexter reflects on his father's advice to always take care of your people.

This week we're talking about the things couples don't always want to hear.Ego. Mentorship. Loyalty. Money. Accountability. Compromise. Growth. Intimacy. And whether your spouse should simply accept you—or challenge you to become better.We get into whether your spouse should always take your side, why telling the truth can sometimes hurt more than protecting someone's feelings, when loyalty becomes enabling, and why money arguments can quickly become arguments about everything.We also get real about keeping affection alive after years together, changing vs. growing with your spouse, and the difference between wanting someone and needing someone.Because after 20+ years of marriage, one thing we've learned is this:Your partner should be your safe place—but they should also be willing to challenge you.And sometimes the person who loves you the most is the person who is willing to tell you what you DON'T want to hear.This is MTMJ Podcast w/the Wife.Real marriage. Real conversations. No filter.Question for you: Would you rather have a partner who agrees with you or makes you better?Follow MTMJ Production everywhere and join the conversation.

Want to learn how to leave a leadership role without burning bridges? I've learned the hard way that transitioning in ministry isn't just about the "next thing"- it's about how we honor the "now thing." In this episode, Amy and I sit down to get real about the messy, beautiful journey of mentorship and leadership development. We're sharing our own stories of growth, grief, and the lessons we've picked up along the way. If you're searching for a mentor or trying to figure out how to pour into the leaders rising up around you, we made this for you. We're walking through the practical, heart-level steps to honoring your past while stepping boldly into your future. I often think about how every community has its own unique sound. Learning to lead isn't about changing that sound to match yours; it's about learning to honor the harmony that was there before you arrived. I want to help you process the mixed emotions of transition so you can lead with a clear heart. If you found something to hold onto throughout this mentoring series, tag @biancajuarezofficial and @amylynnettee on social media to let us know. We would love to continue the conversation there.

Hey there Voices of the Bench community, this is Trish Jones with Ivoclar. If you've been curious about fast-firing zirconia to improve efficiency but aren't convinced it can deliver predictable, high-quality results, I'd encourage you to connect with us. Our new IPS Emax Zirconia offers multiple fast-fire protocols designed to help save you valuable production time while maintaining consistent results. Time is money in every lab. Don't wait. Reach out to your local Ivoclar rep today and discover how IPS Emax Zirconia can help streamline your workflow. As full-arch dentistry continues to grow, so do the demands on today's dental laboratories. That's why Knight Dental recently launched SimplyARCH Studio, a dedicated production environment built exclusively for full-arch restorations. To support this specialized workflow, Knight invested in an XTCERA milling system and carefully evaluated multiple CAM software solutions before choosing hyperDENT. The decision came down to exceptional milling quality, minimal hand finishing, and impressive production efficiency. But what truly set hyperDENT apart was the implementation process. From the very beginning, the team provided more than software training—they shared the knowledge and experience needed to build an optimized workflow for complex full-arch cases. With proven expertise in advanced milling strategies and laboratory production, hyperDENT helped ensure SimplyARCH Studio was designed for long-term success from day one.Matt Everatt joins Elvis and Barb for a fascinating conversation that takes a deep dive into his journey through the dental laboratory industry and the story behind his book, The Invisible Profession. From discovering dental technology at 16 and specializing in maxillofacial prosthetics and orthodontics to working in hospitals, developing early sleep-apnea appliances, and nearly leaving the profession altogether, Matt's career has taken some seriously interesting turns. Eventually, he helped co-found S4S, building a successful business around sleep-apnea appliances, occlusal splints, orthodontics, and more before eventually stepping away from ownership. From polishing hearing-aid earpieces to becoming the first female clinical dental technician to qualify in the UK, Caroline Kirkpatrick has taken a pretty incredible—and definitely unconventional—path through dental technology. Caroline joins Barb and Elvis to talk about how a broken denture repair sign outside a dental laboratory sparked her interest in the industry, her early years learning crown and bridge, orthodontics, and working in a dental hospital, and how her curiosity pushed her to learn every side of the profession. Eventually, that curiosity led Caroline to become one of the first four technicians accepted into the UK's pioneering clinical dental technology program in 2010. But Caroline's story doesn't stop at the bench. She built her own laboratory, taught dental technology, treated patients clinically, raised a family, and continued pushing herself into digital dentistry. She shares how she experimented with early digital workflows, 3D printing, digital dentures, and eventually exocad—and why she believes the best digital workflow isn't necessarily the fanciest one, but the one that actually works in the real world. Caroline also talks about working with her sister and daughter in the family lab, the importance of exposing young technicians to different laboratories and workflows, and why sharing the mistakes you've made can sometimes be one of the best ways to help someone else learn. From Scotland to the world of digital dentures, this is a great conversation about curiosity, adaptability, education, and never being afraid to learn something new. You know what's expensive in a dental lab? Most people would say the mill, but the real cost is downtime. When production stops, everything backs up—cases get delayed, technicians get frustrated, and customers start asking questions. That's why reliable equipment matters. Roland DGA's DGSHAPE DWX milling solutions are built for dependable production, helping labs stay on schedule and keep work moving day after day. Less downtime means fewer surprises and more time doing what your lab does best. And when your equipment is reliable, your customers notice the difference. Reliability isn't just a feature—it's the foundation of a successful lab. Visit rolanddental.com to learn more about Roland's DGSHAPE DWX milling solutions.Special Guest: Caroline Kirkpatrick.

Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Dr. Isaiah Tatum. A 24-year-old entrepreneur, touring artist, and hotel owner:

This week Aaron Miller joins Alan Altizer to discuss our responsibilities as traditional bowhunters, and how to share the lessons and ethics that a traditional bowhunter learns over their lifetime of experiences. “We have been blessed to have hunted the hard way.” But this path has taught the bowhunter so many things and has provided teaching tools which can be used to mentor the next generations. These tools can be used to teach them how to be better hunters, but more importantly, life lessons which teach them to be better men and women. Too few kids today have guidance and mentorship in the outdoors. Whether it is a person's own children, or someone else's, it is our responsibility to share our knowledge and passion for the outdoors. The best part to bowhunting is sharing the knowledge we have with others and seeing their success as we watch the next generations become better than us.
