From there, we examine the science of psychoneuroimmunology — the field that studies how the brain, immune system, and endocrine system communicate continuously.We break down how emotional states translate into hormone signals, how those signals influence immune behavior, how immune activity affects inflammation and fatigue, and how this feedback loop shapes symptom patterns across diagnoses.This is not about positive thinking or denying medical treatment. It is about understanding that the brain and body operate as an integrated system, and that internal experience influences measurable biology.In this episode, you'll understand:How thoughts and emotions trigger real immune and hormonal changesWhy the nervous system acts as a regulator of inflammation and repairHow chronic emotional patterns can influence symptom intensity and recovery capacityWhat placebo and nocebo research reveals about the brain's role in physiologyPractical, grounded ways to support mind-body regulation without forcing positivityInstead of seeing the mind-body connection as abstract or mystical, you'll understand it as a biological communication system that operates whether we acknowledge it or not.Listen now to understand how your internal experience may be influencing your immune and healing systems and begin experimenting with one simple practice that signals safety to your body this week.DisclaimerThis podcast is for educational purposes only and does not offer medical advice.

“I think that there was a catalyst moment in my life, and so, life took me into education, but if I had been paying attention, I would have known that this is where I was supposed to be all along.”Ms. Shanelle SmithPrincipalhttps://www.hbcuwalkingbillboard.org/“My new message became y'all can accomplish a whole lot more together than apart.”In this powerful episode, we sit down with Principal Shanelle Smith of Lincoln College Preparatory Academy — her very own alma mater — to explore the profound impact Black educators have on their students and communities. Shanelle opens up about her unexpected path into education, from navigating personal loss after her mother's passing to discovering a deep passion for working with underserved youth. She reflects on what she calls the "learning behind the learning" — the cultural wisdom, code-switching skills, and sense of belonging that Black teachers uniquely provide, and why their presence in schools remains as vital as ever.“I think that in order to really break down the state of education in Black America, we got to look at it in America as a whole.”Shanelle also shares the inspiring story behind her nonprofit, HBCU Walking Billboard, which started with something as simple as wearing an HBCU shirt and grew into a full 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to bringing awareness of historically Black colleges and universities to Kansas City. From scholarships and college tours to annual send-off celebrations, the initiative reflects Shanelle's belief that students deserve to see every door that is open to them. As she puts it, her life's work is about liberation — giving students the tools, the pride, and the pathways to chart their own futures.

Peter and Eden kick off with Eden's very dramatic Iowa snowstorm (back of the house: buried; front of the house: a dusting) and a quick check-in before diving into their respective "what have you been checking out" updates — Eden on two gloriously bad movies from March Badness, plus a deep dive into obscure 80s/90s indie comics; Peter on the new Lamb of God album, Dungeon Crawler Carl Book 4, and the news that he scored VIP tickets to the Rest Is History Festival in London. The main event is a 64-entry tabletop/board/card game bracket that Peter built himself, working through matchups fast and loose until Uno improbably but correctly takes the whole thing.SHOW NOTESEden's snowstorm saga — A dramatic morning shoveling reveal: six inches of heavy, shovel-sticking snow piled against the back door; the front walkway needed about five seconds of clearing. Wind had blown everything to one side of the house.March Badness — Eden attended a bracket-format bad movie night with friends. The event has been running since 2022 and involves voting down from 32 trailers to four films, then watching two. This year's picks: Oblivion (1990s sci-fi western featuring the very tall man from Twin Peaks in a towering top hat — "boring bad") and Hell Squad (1986 exploitation film about Vegas dancers recruited as mercenary commandos — "the second worst movie I've ever seen," edged out only by the 2025 War of the Worlds with Ice Cube).Defiant Comics / Warriors of Plasm / Ms. Mystic — Eden acquired Issue Zero of Warriors of Plasm, which was released as a series of trading cards you assemble into comic pages. This spiraled into a rabbit hole of obscure 80s/90s indie publishers, including Continuity Comics (founded by Neal Adams), and Eden declaring that Ms. Mystic — a character with 15 issues total — is now her favorite superhero on the strength of her zipatone-gradient costume alone.Lamb of God — Into Oblivion — Peter's been on repeat with the new Lamb of God album (released Friday). Highlight: the single "Sepsis," which opens as an unexpectedly sludgy, slow-burn bass groove before shifting into more traditional territory. Peter calls it his favorite LOG album since Resolution (2012). Ten songs, 39 minutes — "comes in, punches you in the nuts, and leaves."Dungeon Crawler Carl — Peter finished Book 4 on the drive back from Boise and is into Book 5. The epilogue of Book 4 opens up the surface-level lore in a meaningful way.Rest Is History Festival — Peter won a lottery for VIP tickets to the inaugural Rest Is History Festival, July 4–5 at Hampton Court Palace (Henry VIII's palace) in London. He and his wife are planning a 10-day trip around it. He notes the podcast pulls ~45,000 paying subscribers and around a million YouTube streams per episode.The Board Game Bracket — The main segment: Peter built a custom bracket website (following his tier list site) and ran a 64-entry tabletop/card/board game tournament with Eden. Notable moments: near-unanimous hatred of Monopoly (Eden explains the original Quaker socialist two-part design that Milton Bradley gutted), Cards Against Humanity deemed fun exactly twice before becoming "the Edgelord game," and genuine anguish over Little Flower Shop vs. Carcassonne in the Final Four ("Sophie's Choice").The Winner: Uno — Uno defeated Little Flower Shop in the final. Both agree it's the rare game that works straight out of the box, with house rules, and across weird spin-off versions. Eden: "Maybe the quintessential card game."Notable early exits: Settlers of Catan (Eden: "Fuck Settlers of Catan" — Cassie concurs), Ticket to Ride (fun twice, then "okay"), Munchkin (Eden used to own five versions; now owns zero).

As Donald Trump flings the world into an energy crisis with his war in Iran, his administration is apparently trying to resurrect the ghosts of past environmental catastrophes with deepwater drilling in the Gulf of Mexico and an oil pipeline off the coast of California. Rachel Maddow looks at how Donald Trump's fast talk and gaslighting can't change the reality of the mess he has made in the Strait of Hormuz as allies resist his bullying and rivals and opportunists take advantage of him to enrich themselves. Donald Trump's avoidance of accountability or even having to give any real answers on his decision to go to war against Iran may be coming to an end as Senate Democrats are poised to bring the business of the Senate to a grinding halt by forcing a wave of votes on U.S. military action in Iran. Senator Cory Booker talks with Rachel Maddow about Trump's handling of his attack on Iran and the questions Senate Democrats want answered.   And the disaster at the Department of Homeland Security did not end with the firing of Kristi Noem. Wall Street Journal reporter Michelle Hackman discusses with Rachel. Want more of Rachel?

Last week, Judge James Boasberg checked in the Justice Department by quashing two subpoenas against Federal Reserve Board Chair Jerome Powell, intended to pressure him into "voting for lower interest rates or resigning.” Finding “essentially zero evidence” of criminal behavior, Mary and Andrew explain how these subpoenas were issued as retribution and retaliation against Powell, as Boasberg cited over 100 statements that the president and his deputies made attacking him. Next, the co-hosts dig into the disciplinary proceedings against President Trump's pardon attorney Ed Martin, who, while serving as DC's interim U.S. Attorney, pressured Georgetown Law School to change its curriculum. Last on the agenda, Mary and Andrew highlight the case that AI firm Anthropic filed against the Defense Department over being essentially blacklisted. The case is centered around the Pentagon labeling the AI firm a “supply chain risk” after they asked the Pentagon not to use their “Claude” AI technology to do two things: “deploy lethal autonomous warfare without human oversight” and use it for “mass surveillance of Americans.” Further reading:  Here is the complaint Anthropic filed against the government: Complaint For Declaratory And Injunctive Relief Here once again is the Federal Register if you'd like to enter public comment: Review of State Bar Complaints and Allegations Against Department of Justice Attorneys Sign up for MS NOW Premium on Apple Podcasts to listen to this show and other MS podcasts without ads.

This episode is all about the simple power of a morning huddle. Tiff and Trish talk about the why behind these daily meetings, including what to include versus not include, how to look for opportunities in the schedule, why everything goes a lot smoother with a bit of communication. Episode resources: Subscribe to The Dental A-Team podcast Schedule a Practice Assessment Leave us a review Transcript: The Dental A Team (00:00) Hello, Dental A Team listeners. We are back at you again. We've got another fun topic today. This is one, honestly, we talk about these a lot. We talk about morning huddles. That's what we're gonna do, spoiler alert, morning huddles. We talk about these a lot, but I feel like we have not had an awesome recording, an awesome podcast recording on this in quite a little while. So I'm actually super excited for what's to come. And I've got Ms. here with me today. ​ cleared her calendar for some podcasting time with me today, which I always appreciate and adore. And we're actually, we pre-record these, you guys know this, so I'm just gonna drop this now. It kind of makes it a little funky, because this may be the end of March. I'm not sure where you're gonna get this, where this drops, so enjoy. But we're getting ready for our in-person mastermind. We'll be having another one in September, so that's why I don't mind talking about it. It's the end of February now, recording for March. But we're getting ready for our in-person event. ​ Literally two days from now. I can't believe that I moved podcasting here, but Trish I think we were I was at least sick I had to reschedule everybody's been sick, but holy cow what an amazing week I feel like the energy and the team is is crazy We've got a slew of doctors and office managers coming to Phoenix tomorrow ⁓ At the airport is gonna be wild and I'm excited to see everybody in person Trish. How are you? How excited are you for this mastermind? ​ Trish Lee Ackerman (01:26) so jazzed. They've just been so fun. It's one, it's always just neat to actually be able to like touch the people that we work with, hug the people that we work with, shake hands with the clients, with the new clients, and just on site is always just really, really, really fun. So I am very, excited for this and our weather is perfect for the people that are coming from the cold. So they'll be very happy. The spouses that are attending will really be enjoying the pool. It's just going to be a great, a great experience for everybody. ​ The Dental A Team (01:43) I agree. ​ I agree. think end of February in Phoenix has to be one of the best ideas we've ever had. I remember a couple years ago I have a practice out in Georgia and she and her girlfriends do, they do trips every year and it's this girls trip and it's so cute and it's so fun and they came out here and it was, it would have been like two weeks ago our time now so beginning of February which is always, February in Phoenix is, I think it's the best time. ​ of the year to be in Phoenix. Hands down, February in Phoenix is my favorite month. And it poured. And it was freezing. And she's like, girl, we came here because it was snowing at home. And I was like, I they went to Sedona and it was freezing. And I was like, ⁓ dang it. But now, fast forward, this weekend ⁓ is literally the best time of the year to be here. And when we go in person, the reason this is super relevant is we do ​ Trish Lee Ackerman (02:34) I bet. ​ The Dental A Team (02:51) Morning huddles we implement with all of our practices. We strongly believe in them. We will tell you why. When we come in person to you, we get this really cool energy. And gosh, we love being boots on the ground in offices, seeing where you guys work, seeing how you work together, getting that intel and that information. And it's just, I think all consultants can say, sets us on fire. Having you guys all come to us is just like heartwarming in a way. ​ It touches our souls that you want to be here with us and it's just a different, it's a different energy, a different vibration and having so many really cool brains and minds melding together to help one another and seeing the community and the camaraderie is just so cool. And I just, I'm so excited. So we're, we're stoked. The next one's in September. If you're not coming to this one or you're not, by the time you listen to this, you're not reminiscing on how cool it was. ​ You better be here in September. Hello@TheDentalATeam.com. That's how you're going to get your ticket. You tell us you want to be here, we'll figure out a way. with that, we won't be talking about morning huddles this week because we do them as consultants. But Trish, morning huddles, I know, are super important. think every consultant probably on Earth right now is like, you should be doing morning huddles, especially Dental A Team consultants. What is your why behind a morning huddle? ​ How do you explain the practices? How do we convince the people here that are like, we don't need morning huddle. What's your why? ​ Trish Lee Ackerman (04:28) My why is because number one, communication to me is always like, you're never going to lose from communicating. When you have everybody on the same page in the morning to kind of start to direct the show for the day, it prepares you for those hiccups that can actually come up. There's this, I might have shared this with you, Tiff, there's this, and I don't remember the name of it, but it's a Navy SEAL video. And basically the title of it is like, if you want to change the world, make your bed every morning. ​ The Dental A Team (04:55) Yes. ​ Trish Lee Ackerman (04:58) When I watched that, was like, making the bed every morning, that's the morning huddle for the dental teams. And what he shares is like, if you can't do a simple task, like make your bed in the morning, how are you supposed to be prepared as your day goes on to face something more challenging? Because that's a simple task. The morning huddle is also, it's a pretty simple task, but it's kind of a big one because you get to look at this. Yes, you get to look at the schedule as a team. ​ We don't need to go patient by patient by patient. Everybody can see that they're on the schedule. What we're looking for is our opportunities and to celebrate a win. Like do we have a win from yesterday? That will certainly get the team charged up. But what is happening today? Who's coming in and where are the opportunities, especially like say from the hygiene department, who's coming in on the hygiene schedule today with an existing treatment need? It's clear it's there because they didn't do it last time. ​ We talk to them about it. when can we collaborate real quick on what are we going to do differently today? Do we need new photography? Like what's the story with that patient? But it's to align us as a team, note, like find our places. Like this would be a good place for an emergency. And, and again, just create clarity and accountability on what that day looks like right now. We know the dentistry changes many times and can throughout a day. ​ However, again, when we orchestrate together as a team in the morning and we start to direct the show, those days will, it's almost like it's guaranteed they're going to flow easier. They just are. ​ The Dental A Team (06:38) Yeah, ​ in compare to pull out your, your Navy SEAL video and like really combine those pieces. What you, what you said in there was preparing for preparing for the day. If you can do this task, like when something more difficult comes along. So it made me think as you're speaking there, you're saying, talk about the unscheduled treatment and what are we going to do differently? Because what I, what that said to me that I smashed those two things together in my brain. And I thought, well, if I'm the ​ hygienist or dental assistant and then I'm like, okay doc, what do you want to do? One, efficiency is my jam. One, that is a waste of time. If I've got the patient there but I have to wait for the doctor to come in to have a conversation about the treatment that was on there, we're losing time, we're losing trust, we're losing an opportunity. And then two, if I have to troubleshoot those all day, we haven't already troubleshot them, I'm troubleshooting those all day. ​ and my mill breaks, my mill, my crown broke in the mill. And now I'm troubleshooting that. Plus I've got another patient coming in that has unscheduled treatment that I'm responsible for that I have to get scheduled and I have to get their re-care. But this thing just over here, and now the ultrasonic is spilling water all over the floor. Like if I could have gotten all of those other small, like making the bed style stresses out in the morning with my team informed plans, this broken crown. ​ The ultrasonic, the phones went down, the internet isn't working today. My car broke and I can't get to my appointment. All of these things, these happen every day, every single day. So I think Trish, you'd like, I talk about morning huddles all the time, you guys, but you just changed it. You just even changed the small perspective for me just now and got me lit up of how can I help practices reduce small variable stresses. ​ so that those big stresses have space to live. ​ Trish Lee Ackerman (08:37) Right. Yep. That's exactly it. And if the doctor, you know, let's say there is a nine o'clock patient coming in that has unscheduled treatment from the last visit, but the doctor is now, like his time has now been used up with an emergency and his other patient has three composites that are trying to That's how he's fun. Now, hygienist is always already prepared because we talked about it this morning. We know new photography is going to be necessary and ask the right question. The doctor may not even need to go in there. ​ The Dental A Team (08:55) Yeah. ​ Trish Lee Ackerman (09:07) during that particular time. So it's just the organization of those what ifs that can happen throughout the day. Many teams, what do they usually tell us Tiff? Our huddles aren't productive and we'll go what? Because they literally just sit there and review the schedule. We don't need to. Yeah, I know me too. I'm like, well, no wonder it's boring. That's 15 minutes of your life that you could have slept in 15 more minutes. But when they do just kind of just pull out the meat and potatoes. ​ The Dental A Team (09:08) Yeah. ​ Yeah. ​ And drive's been crazy. ​ Seriously. ​ Trish Lee Ackerman (09:36) Where do we have opportunities on the schedule today? If that, nine o'clock hygiene patient does have existing treatment needs, are we able to slide them over and say, 10, can we make some other things work? And when they do it more like that, when they look at it more as like they're trying to design the business for the day versus just review who's coming in for the day, then they do find them way more productive. ​ The Dental A Team (10:02) Yeah, I completely agree. I thought, Trish, as you were talking there too, I thought how many doctors complain, how many team members are listening today and you can hear your doctor say, how do you not have an x-ray? Or they come in the room or how many hygienists, I know even as a dental assistant, I get so frustrated if he walked in the room and he's like, I need an x-ray. And I'm like, ⁓ I could have had that for him. Like I could have been prepared. I want to be a step ahead. ​ so that we're saving those spaces. And you mentioned like doing the treatment today, same day treatment. If we've already talked about it as a dental assistant, I've preset a tray, not opened, right? But I've got everything that I need that I can throw in a room for when that patient says yes, because we already talked about it. But being a dental assistant, and I speak from the dental assistant space, because I was a dental assistant for a really long time, and I loved it. And being the dental assistant, it would drive me nuts when I didn't have ​ the space, the capacity or the forethought. I didn't know something was coming. And then the hygienist comes at me frantic and rushed because she's like, my gosh, he wants to do this now. And he said it and I didn't, and I'm like, okay, like I'm taking on your energy. And I'm like, my gosh, like now everybody's frantic. And now the feeling goes wrong. And what should have been 30 minutes just took an hour and a half. And the patient that should have been fine, that had a scheduled appointment is now waiting because we just, we weren't prepared. ​ And then I think I offended an office once I didn't mean to but I think I did because they're they loved the doctors loved to go through every single appointment and literally to the point of like 20 modl and I'm like, are we talking about it because it should be a crown? No, that's what we're doing And so I told them like you're just basically telling your team that you can't they can't read a schedule ​ Trish Lee Ackerman (11:48) I'm not wearing glasses. ​ That's exactly it. ​ The Dental A Team (11:57) you should ​ have already done this. Everyone should have already looked at the schedule and if you want to meet with your dental assistants and powwow for every single appointment that way, by all means, but your hygienist in your front office, they were checked out 20 minutes ago. They're out. I think I slightly offended them, but they changed it and they left it. It was fine. Sometimes that's my job, right? It's like, sometimes we have to say the things you don't want to hear and move forward with grace. So we did it. ​ And then you you mentioned well when you mentioned a lot of practices are like they're not productive. I agree. So Trish agrees Sometimes they're not productive. So we come in and we help you make them productive another thing that I hear that I've had to troubleshoot with some offices and I know you have as well is We can't all be there early enough right maybe I have some doctors right I have some moms that drop their kids off in the morning and so they're really kind of skating in or some hygienists that are kind of skating in and ​ Or they've got split shifts. So they've got so many people that they've got multiple, you know, shifts coming in. And I've got some things that I've trouble shot, but what do you, how do you help them navigate that as well Trish to still get the prep and we call it like winning your day. Like how are we, how are we going to win today? ​ Trish Lee Ackerman (13:11) That is a common one, especially for like the larger practices. You know, I have a doctor, I have a practice that there's five doctors, everybody's coming in at different times. So what we have done with that team is they just have, have like mini huddles with their OM. So before, you know, if the, let's say one group comes in at eight, next group comes in at nine, that group comes in at 8.45 and they meet with the OM. So the OM sometimes it's like on some days does depend. She's having three separate huddles. ​ but she's running them just as efficiently as if it was an entire group. So those team members that are coming in at the later shifts, their focus is on like their columns, their hygienists that they're working with that day and the doctor. But as far as like getting out of it, there's always a solution to have a huddle, like always. Some teams will say like, well, we could do the end of the day. I never, ever, ever, ever recommend that. ​ The Dental A Team (13:59) always. ​ Trish Lee Ackerman (14:09) People want to go home. Dentistry is hard. It takes a lot out of us. And if you expect a team to want to sit with you at 4 p.m. or 4 30 p.m. to review tomorrow, it's probably going to land on deaf ears. But those other split shifts, that's the way it's handled. So you have your key people. They meet with the O.M. that is, you know, that was present for the main, the big morning. It's just delivered in a smaller group, but the alignment gets to stay the same. ​ The Dental A Team (14:30) All the other ones. ​ Yeah. ​ Yeah, it's like you're running it like there, you have so many doctors. So you're running it, those doctors are essentially working as an office, right? So you're running them as an office rather than like the full office because you're doing that doctor, their assistants, their hygienist and the crew that will be together. So I love that. I've also had a, I've had a doctor, he was, he was a really funny guy, is Louisiana. ⁓ ​ Trish Lee Ackerman (14:46) Exactly. Yeah. ​ The Dental A Team (15:04) And so he just, he was just a funny guy, you know, and he was like, well, me and my truck, right? Like he's coming in with his big dually from an hour away because he lives on a farm. And he's like, I can't, I can't leave any earlier. And I was like, that's fine. You've got speakerphone in your, your truck. It's going to be surround sound. You're there with them on surround sound in your truck. And he was like, you're right. And I'm like, there's no excuse. You're not doing anything else. You're just driving. So. ​ Trish Lee Ackerman (15:29) Okay. ​ Yes. ​ The Dental A Team (15:33) get there and he actually ended up more often than not getting there on time to do the huddle because he was intentional about it. was just, you just have to, you have to get through the block. You know, you have to see that there is a way around and normally you're gonna accomplish what it is that you're trying to do. I also have another office, both of us have been into this office together. We've done them together and they are really good at ​ Blocks, very good at blocks and they have a lot of blocks, a lot of blockers for huddle because they just, they just, they do. The timing is just not right for 90 % of the team. And that's really, that's really hard. And it's kind of, it was kind of defeating almost to them. Like, this is something that I'm hearing you, we should do this, but like, can't, you know, and it was defeating for them. And I was like, cool, do it at lunch. ​ So what they do is they'll do a 15 minute huddle at the end of their lunch hour. So they go to lunch a little early, you know, they kind of adjusted their schedule there and they'll huddle for the next 24 hours. So they do this afternoon and tomorrow morning and then look at tomorrow afternoon, but then split the day. So they're kind of adjusted it a little bit, but they're still meeting. And what you said in the beginning Trish was communication. And for most of my practices, and I think ​ We all experience this, Trish. Doctors come in and they're like, we need systems and our communication sucks. I'm like, well, you have systems and your communication is because you're not talking to each other. And so they're all in their own little worlds. They're in their own lanes. And what happens is we get this idea of what we want it to be in our lane. know my patients. I'm handling my patients. You do you. And we get siloed. And this and handoffs force communication. ​ Trish Lee Ackerman (17:10) Yes. ​ The Dental A Team (17:33) so that the team is a team. We can't be a team without actually talking to one another and it forces that. And so even for the practices that have to do splits, but they're talking to their OM, their OM is the glue, which actually Trish, what you did there and what they've done is solidify even more that the office manager is the glue of the practice because she's the one that they rely on. ​ Trish Lee Ackerman (17:58) the heart of cell. ​ The Dental A Team (18:02) to ensure that they're communicating correctly. it doesn't, morning huddle, nothing we do. Nothing we do has to be exactly the same as the way somebody else did it. And I think that's the beauty of our consulting and the way that we work with our clients is that we are going to take the system and the idea that we know works and we're tailor it around what's going to work for you. So it's not a one size fits all. It's not an everyday at 7.45, everyone in the country. ​ is meeting for a morning huddle. It's just not. And I have other practices that will do it by video, by Slack. So they'll record the morning huddle, and then the office manager is responsible for meeting with them, and they watch the video together. And kind of very similar, but they've got the video, so they've got the input from the first team, because the doctors and the assistants do kind of mingle a little bit more. ⁓ So it's kind of stacking communication throughout the day. ​ But I think the biggest piece there is it's, yeah. ​ Trish Lee Ackerman (19:01) That's another good one. That is a good ​ one. I personally have not had to roll it out, but I've worked with some practices that have done that. And I mean, there was no complaints and I was on a call with Kiera and ⁓ she was talking to a practice about doing that. So mean, there's always a way. There's always a way. It would just be 15 minutes to look at today and maybe even tomorrow, depending on the size of the team. today, today is really the most important. If we can get 15 minutes. ​ The Dental A Team (19:17) Yes. Yes. ​ Trish Lee Ackerman (19:30) somehow, someway, everybody seeing the plan for the day, then it's probably going to be a much better day than it could have been if you didn't have the 15 minutes set aside for this. ​ The Dental A Team (19:41) I agree. ​ I agree. All right, Trish. So thank you. I really wanted this to be on the go. A why on morning huddles? Because we've talked about morning huddles so much before. And most of our practices, at least, are doing them. I think our action items should be, if you are not doing a huddle, what are the top three things, Trish, that you would tell the doctors and practice managers out there to implement tomorrow if they are not doing morning huddle already? ​ Trish Lee Ackerman (20:10) and not even considering it like they're not gonna have it. Okay, then they've got to do, then they've got to have some form of like say a shared Google Doc where there's the schedule and they can put notes. Somebody's gotta have, they've got to have a view of the day with some kind of commentary that they can go in and I mean, Slack there's that, but maybe just the Google Drive, the schedule's there, they add their commentary, it's reviewed. ​ The Dental A Team (20:13) Yep. ​ Trish Lee Ackerman (20:38) They may be even initial so that they've read it. They can add more commentary, but something with this day in the office has got to be reviewed by the key team members for sure. And if that is something that they do, via a shared document, then that's what they do. it's got, like it's kind of a non-negotiable. It's got to happen. They're going to run into chaos. It's not fair to them. ​ and to have just something at a glance, that wouldn't even take 15 minutes. That'd probably be more, maybe even like five if they were doing it individually. But each provider does need to have a key team member with them. They need to review the day and add commentary and read any other commentary that was placed there. ​ The Dental A Team (21:26) Awesome. Thank you. Thank you. Perfect.

From PRP (platelet-rich plasma) therapy and rapamycin to senolytics, peptides, and low-dose naltrexone (LDN), this conversation dives into emerging tools that may support egg quality, ovarian function, and fertility after 35. They also challenge long-standing scientific dogma around ovarian aging and discuss whether women are truly born with all the eggs they'll ever have. If you're navigating diminished ovarian reserve, PCOS, endometriosis, insulin resistance, or age-related fertility concerns, this episode offers cutting-edge insights and practical hope grounded in evolving research. Key Takeaways: PRP ovarian rejuvenation may improve ovarian function and support natural conception in some women. Emerging research questions the belief that women are born with all their eggs, opening new conversations about ovarian aging and regeneration. Rapamycin and senolytics (like fisetin) are being studied for their potential role in delaying ovarian aging and reducing inflammation. Peptide therapy may support hormonal balance, egg quality, insulin sensitivity, and conditions like PCOS. Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN) may help regulate immune function, reduce inflammation, and support fertility outcomes in certain cases.
