In a recent column, I argued that the concept of "baby bonds" — a verison of which is included in "big beautiful bill" President Donald Trump is backing in Congress — is something North Dakotans should implement whatever the federal government might do. We have hundreds of millions in revenue from the Legacy Fund's investments, and we have the Bank of North Dakota to administer the program. A rough estimate based on the average number of live births in our state every year is that this would cost the state about $20 million or so per biennium. After I published my column, Treasurer Thomas Beadle reached out, saying it's a topic that intrigues him as well. "I think that you get a little bit of a a stakeholder society," he said on this episode of Plain Talk. "Children are being set up with these accounts, and the parents are managing these accounts on behalf of their kids, so they will be vested. They might have a stakeholder interest in making sure that programs like this are viable." Speaking of investments, also joining this episode was Jodi Smith, executive director of the state Retirement and Investment Board, and Kodee Furst, a director 50 South Capital. They discussed the ongoing efforts to implement the Legacy Fund's in-state investment program. The goal is to have the Legacy Fund at $1.3 billion invested inside of the state by 2030. Some of the challenges in getting there early on were negotiating the producer-investor rules. State investment officials have a responsibilty to maximize returns, but with the in-state investment program, the idea is that some of those returns aren't in the form of interest on investments but rather economic development. This balance is important. "We're not providing a grant," Smith said. "We do expect a return to come back to us." If you want to participate in Plain Talk, just give us a call or text at 701-587-3141.

The cost of justice in Idaho continues to balloon by the day and there many factors at play that are moving the needle towards the red. Here are two of the issues that are driving costs through the roof as the state of Idaho continues to pursue a conviction against Bryan Kohberger.Capital murder cases typically cost more to prosecute in Idaho, as in many other states, due to several factors:Legal Representation: Capital cases involve complex legal proceedings, often requiring extensive legal representation. Defendants in capital cases are entitled to competent legal representation, which can include hiring experienced attorneys and investigators. The state may also appoint defense counsel, and these attorneys often require additional resources for research, preparation, and presentation of the case.Lengthy Trials: Capital murder trials tend to be longer and more complex than non-capital murder trials. These trials involve more extensive pre-trial motions, jury selection processes, and evidentiary hearings. The trial itself can last for weeks or even months, requiring court personnel, judges, jurors, and legal professionals to dedicate significant time and resources to the case.Expert Witnesses: Capital cases often require expert witnesses to testify on various matters, such as forensic evidence, mental health evaluations, and other specialized areas. Hiring and compensating these expert witnesses can add substantial costs to the prosecution.Appeals Process: Capital cases are subject to mandatory appeals, which can extend over many years. The appeals process involves additional legal expenses, including filing fees, court costs, and expenses related to appellate attorneys and expert witnesses. These costs can accumulate significantly, especially if the case proceeds through multiple levels of appeal, including state and federal courts.Security Measures: Capital cases often require heightened security measures due to the seriousness of the charges and the potential for public attention or emotional reactions. Additional security measures may be necessary to ensure the safety of participants in the trial, including judges, jurors, witnesses, and attorneys. These security measures can involve increased staffing, security personnel, and infrastructure upgrades, all of which contribute to the overall cost of prosecuting the case.Emotional Toll: Capital cases can take an emotional toll on all parties involved, including victims' families, defendants, jurors, and legal professionals. Providing support services, such as counseling and victim assistance programs, adds to the overall cost of prosecuting these cases.The combination of legal representation, lengthy trials, expert witnesses, the appeals process, security measures, and emotional support services all contribute to the higher costs associated with prosecuting capital murder cases in Idaho and elsewhere.Also keep in mind that the taxpayers of Idaho are also on the hook for Bryan Kohberger's defense fees.The cost to the state of Idaho, to defend an indigent defendant in a capital murder case can vary widely depending on several factors:Length of Trial: Capital murder cases often involve lengthy trials due to the complexity and seriousness of the charges. The longer the trial, the higher the cost as it involves paying attorneys, expert witnesses, court personnel, and other associated expenses.Legal Representation: Indigent defendants are entitled to legal representation, and in capital cases, this often involves hiring experienced defense attorneys who specialize in such cases. The cost can vary based on the hourly rates of these attorneys or the structure of their fees.Expert Witnesses: Capital cases typically involve the testimony of various expert witnesses, such as forensic experts, psychologists, and medical professionals. These experts often charge high fees for their services, adding to the overall cost of the defense.Investigation Costs: Capital cases require thorough investigation, including gathering evidence, interviewing witnesses, and conducting forensic analysis. These investigative costs can contribute significantly to the overall expense.Appeals Process: If the defendant is convicted and sentenced to death, the appeals process can extend for many years, adding further costs to the state.Miscellaneous Expenses: Other expenses, such as court fees, administrative costs, and overhead, also contribute to the total cost of defending an indigent defendant in a capital murder case.(commercial at 7:46)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Millions spent in case against Bryan Kohberger before trial | Idaho Statesman

Chiropractic care is a preventive healthcare measure that can lead to long-term savings by reducing the need for costly interventions…
On the Secret Witch Show today our guest is Siân Marie Pilkington. Siân is The Wild Mama who has raised her babies and has landed shakti-based, goddess-devoted, and in service to the taboos of blood, birth, sexuality and death. A queer celt, Magdalene, radical birth worker, herbalist, and ceremonialist, she guides femmes back to the Great Mother, blending primal intelligence with embodied, Earth-honoring magic. Siân now works purposefully to decolonize the rites of passage we've been taught to fear, reclaiming birth, postpartum, eros, and endings as sacred. Mentoring doulas and space holders in altered states, ecstatic birth, and collaborative community care, her work is a love letter to those ready to remember, rewild, and bring initiations home. In this beautiful episode about death we explore Siân's sacred and unique perspective around miscarriage as a natural, ancient healing ‘rite of passage' - rather than the taboo, over-clinicalised, sanitised, dissociative experience it can be created as by our world. Sharing the healing transformation she was able to reclaim from her own miscarriage, and the ancient wisdom passed down from elders, Siân shines a light on the interconnectedness of grief and initiation - and the role of ritual and ceremony in alchemy. Providing practical advice on holistic practices, herbs and remedies to support healing, she illuminates the powerful remedy that can be found (for us all) in learning how to see and hear ourselves and share our stories - touching on shame, rage and grief - and how the witch can help heal the societal avoidance of death and grief. What You'll Learn from this Episode: Miscarriage is over-sanitised in our patriarchal culture - which has it commonly not seen as the significant ‘peak experience' and transformative rite of passage that it can be, similar to live childbirth and other life transitions Miscarriage can be a deeply emotional and spiritual journey where we learn how to meet ourselves, face and process intense emotions, including grief and loss - and even pleasure - yet it is also often seen as ‘taboo' and shameful Left alone, and if we can allow ourselves to sit patiently, whilst allowing everything to move through us, the body has a natural wisdom in how to process miscarriage - and we can attune to our bodies to navigate this. We are broken in the process - we are giving birth to death - and, often, it is also the path to reclaiming our wisdom. If we have had an over-clinicalised miscarriage, we can still journey with reclaiming this rite of passage - this threshold - through ritual and ceremony, reclaiming parts of ourselves that have felt lost to this process.

The cost of justice in Idaho continues to balloon by the day and there many factors at play that are moving the needle towards the red. Here are two of the issues that are driving costs through the roof as the state of Idaho continues to pursue a conviction against Bryan Kohberger.Capital murder cases typically cost more to prosecute in Idaho, as in many other states, due to several factors:Legal Representation: Capital cases involve complex legal proceedings, often requiring extensive legal representation. Defendants in capital cases are entitled to competent legal representation, which can include hiring experienced attorneys and investigators. The state may also appoint defense counsel, and these attorneys often require additional resources for research, preparation, and presentation of the case.Lengthy Trials: Capital murder trials tend to be longer and more complex than non-capital murder trials. These trials involve more extensive pre-trial motions, jury selection processes, and evidentiary hearings. The trial itself can last for weeks or even months, requiring court personnel, judges, jurors, and legal professionals to dedicate significant time and resources to the case.Expert Witnesses: Capital cases often require expert witnesses to testify on various matters, such as forensic evidence, mental health evaluations, and other specialized areas. Hiring and compensating these expert witnesses can add substantial costs to the prosecution.Appeals Process: Capital cases are subject to mandatory appeals, which can extend over many years. The appeals process involves additional legal expenses, including filing fees, court costs, and expenses related to appellate attorneys and expert witnesses. These costs can accumulate significantly, especially if the case proceeds through multiple levels of appeal, including state and federal courts.Security Measures: Capital cases often require heightened security measures due to the seriousness of the charges and the potential for public attention or emotional reactions. Additional security measures may be necessary to ensure the safety of participants in the trial, including judges, jurors, witnesses, and attorneys. These security measures can involve increased staffing, security personnel, and infrastructure upgrades, all of which contribute to the overall cost of prosecuting the case.Emotional Toll: Capital cases can take an emotional toll on all parties involved, including victims' families, defendants, jurors, and legal professionals. Providing support services, such as counseling and victim assistance programs, adds to the overall cost of prosecuting these cases.The combination of legal representation, lengthy trials, expert witnesses, the appeals process, security measures, and emotional support services all contribute to the higher costs associated with prosecuting capital murder cases in Idaho and elsewhere.Also keep in mind that the taxpayers of Idaho are also on the hook for Bryan Kohberger's defense fees.The cost to the state of Idaho, to defend an indigent defendant in a capital murder case can vary widely depending on several factors:Length of Trial: Capital murder cases often involve lengthy trials due to the complexity and seriousness of the charges. The longer the trial, the higher the cost as it involves paying attorneys, expert witnesses, court personnel, and other associated expenses.Legal Representation: Indigent defendants are entitled to legal representation, and in capital cases, this often involves hiring experienced defense attorneys who specialize in such cases. The cost can vary based on the hourly rates of these attorneys or the structure of their fees.Expert Witnesses: Capital cases typically involve the testimony of various expert witnesses, such as forensic experts, psychologists, and medical professionals. These experts often charge high fees for their services, adding to the overall cost of the defense.Investigation Costs: Capital cases require thorough investigation, including gathering evidence, interviewing witnesses, and conducting forensic analysis. These investigative costs can contribute significantly to the overall expense.Appeals Process: If the defendant is convicted and sentenced to death, the appeals process can extend for many years, adding further costs to the state.Miscellaneous Expenses: Other expenses, such as court fees, administrative costs, and overhead, also contribute to the total cost of defending an indigent defendant in a capital murder case.(commercial at 7:46)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Millions spent in case against Bryan Kohberger before trial | Idaho StatesmanBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

At the heart of the gospel is a story of Christ's redeeming work. How we understand this story impacts who we understand God to be, how we see ourselves, and how we relate with God. In this series, we will consider what Jesus accomplishes in his life, death, and resurrection, and we will seek to live in the fullness Christ's atoning work. This week, we considered the Orthodox story of atonement. Jesus in his life, death, and resurrection is victorious over the evil one. This story invites us to consider God's great love which leads to the Lord: Offering forgiveness without the need for payment. Providing a path from healing from the sickness caused by sin. Going through death into Hades to defeat the evil one, and Giving himself in sacrifice to seal a new covenant and offer us union with God.

From Michelin Stars to Mission-Driven ImpactYannick Alléno is best known for revolutionizing French cuisine. But in recent years, he's stepped into an entirely different arena—road safety advocacy. After his son's life was taken in a senseless car crash, Yannick transformed his grief into action, founding an association to tackle road violence through legislative reform, youth support, and technological innovation.Launching the “Impact” Initiative at VivaTechAt VivaTech 2025, Alléno launched the Impact initiative—the first platform rallying civil tech actors to combat road deaths globally. The effort brought together over 120 startups from 42 countries, proposing solutions spanning AI, sensor tech, vehicle safety systems, and behavior-change tools. Three standout projects were showcased:A steering wheel sensor detecting alcohol levels through perspirationA motorcycle safety application enhancing rider visibilityA chemical grip agent reducing aquaplaning on roads“Tech can save lives, and it can be a good business too,” Yannick says.The Power of Storytelling & CultureBeyond policy and startups, Impact uses art and storytelling to change public perception. Its signature performance, Fragiles, fuses dance, music, and testimonies - including from perpetrators of road violence - to humanize the statistics and engage younger audiences.This intersection of emotional resonance and policy innovation is at the heart of the project's approach.Advocacy Through Law, Support, and AwarenessImpact's mission rests on three pillars:Legal reform: Contributing to the reclassification of reckless road violence as homicide in FranceFamily support: Providing psychological and financial help to families, especially children impacted by the loss of siblings or parentsCultural transformation: Running awareness campaigns that challenge outdated narratives around driving, alcohol, and responsibilityScaling a Global CauseFrom France to New Delhi, Alléno's ambition is global. He's seeking partnerships with governments, insurers, mobility companies, and tech leaders to embed road safety solutions at scale. Renault is already an anchor partner, providing both financial and strategic support.This isn't bad luck, it's preventable.

Kiera is joined by Dr. Christy Moore of Moore Smiles to talk about how Dr. Moore has maintained her passion for dentistry over the decades, including providing solid leadership for your team, keeping an amazing culture, and branching out to services like Botox. Episode resources: Subscribe to The Dental A-Team podcast Schedule a Practice Assessment Leave us a review Transcript: Kiera Dent (00:01) Hello, Dental A Team listeners, this is Kiera. And today I have such a special guest. I love this woman so much. She has been a client of ours. She's been a dear friend of mine. This woman just makes you want to be a better human. And she's an incredible dentist, has some really fun ideas. I want her to come on and just share like a super unique way she runs her practice and just let you guys know this woman who I've just been so lucky to know for so long. Welcome to the show, Christy Moore. How are you today, Christy? Dr.Christy Moore (00:27) I'm doing great, Kara. Thank you so much for that introduction. How about yourself? Kiera Dent (00:30) Yeah, I'm doing really, really well. It's been a podcast full day, but it's been fun. You're my last podcast of the day. So always an exciting thing. But Christy, you're such an incredible human. I feel like the world needs more Christy's. So I feel like you should tell them a little bit about who you are, where you're practicing, a little bit about your journey to practice ownership. And then like I said, she's doing something so special that so many offices are trying to do that can't do it successfully and Christy, you've done it. So. Dr.Christy Moore (00:45) Thank you. Kiera Dent (00:57) Just kind of tell everybody, like, how did you get into dentistry? What's kind of your path to where we are today? Dr.Christy Moore (01:03) Yeah, so I actually started in dentistry all the way back in 1995, which was quite a few years ago. I started out as a dental assistant and then went to high-teen school, work, yeah. Kiera Dent (01:13) That's why I like you. I had no clue you were a dentalist. This is why we connect, Christy, all right? It says so much about you now. I get it, I understand. Dr.Christy Moore (01:18) Yeah. So I did, I did hygiene for about 10 years and then I went to dental school. I got out of dental school in 2012 and knew that I wanted to own my own practice and came out of the gate purchasing a practice from a previous Dr. Moore, no relation. We still kind of get people wanting to know like if that's my dad or my uncle, there's no relation whatsoever. But it came out in 2012, bought my own practice and started, started right out of the gate being an owner at that point. Kiera Dent (01:52) That's incredible. And do you regret it? Because so many students straight out of school are like, ah, like, I don't think I'm ready. most of them are like, no, just buy. Are you so glad you bought right from the get go? Or do wish you would have like done an associate ship if you could do it all over again? Dr.Christy Moore (02:06) I'm glad that I bought straight out of the gate. I kind of had an idea of like how I wanted to run the practice. I think being in dentistry for a few years before I even went to dental school, I knew what I liked, I knew what I didn't like. So being able to just start out and then own my own practice and then kind of build it from there was kind of nice. You know, I didn't go in and change things immediately that the previous owner had been there for 40 years And so like I kind of slowly started implementing things and changing things like he didn't even have Computers so, you know you come out there's they were still scheduling on the little piece of you know The book we had to like erase it and all that stuff So ⁓ it we didn't have internet in the building, you know, and I come from like having internet. Yes. Yes 2012 Kiera Dent (02:50) 2012? Dr.Christy Moore (02:53) So it was an event to get things up to par. But I'm so glad that I did it that way because the team that I lost team members, of course, but then the team members that stuck it out with me, like I still have one to this day. And she's one of my ride or dies and just levered her dead. Kiera Dent (03:04) course. That's amazing. I think that that's something like, I can't imagine. I mean, this is a true definition of a sleeping practice, Christy. Like I tell everybody, like, you want to buy a sleeping practice, like paper charts. I've never had anybody with no internet. And when I first started assisting, so let's think it would have been in 2003. So that's when I first heard we had a paper book and they like erased it, but that was 2003. I mean, you were multi-years post that and still Dr.Christy Moore (03:35) Mm-hmm. yeah. Kiera Dent (03:41) Yeah, and I remember like erasing, like Terry was her name up front, it was my first office. They had the like suction, we're gonna spit in it. I thought it was disgusting, but I'm like, sweet, now don't have to worry about the UV light. I have no way to suction as an assistant, so that was kind of handy for me, but also disgusting. But I remember like, erase it out. I'm like, this seems so archaic, but YOLO. So here we go. Wow, okay. So then you bought the practice in 2012, no nothing. Dr.Christy Moore (04:00) Yes. Yes. Kiera Dent (04:09) kind of walk me through your practice journey. Like where did you go? Like how many team members? What was kind of the, I mean, you basically had like nothing but up from where you started. So that was a positive, like internet, paper charts. So kind of walk me through, you started there, where are you now today? What does your practice kind of look like? And then I'm gonna ask another question. I just wanna like get to that. Then I have. Dr.Christy Moore (04:21) Yes, yes. Yeah, so when I started out, I bought the practice and we had two hygienists, an assistant and a lady up front. And when I came in and told them that we were gonna go, yeah. Kiera Dent (04:40) I wanted to die. You're like, I'm gonna take away your paper and pencil and she's like, what? ⁓ Dr.Christy Moore (04:45) yeah, she quit immediately. Like I told her we were going to get the computers and she turned in her notice. So yeah, that was immediate. So that was like the first change I had to overcome. So that was kind of interesting. ⁓ But yeah, so every, it was always funny because every time we had a change, things just got better. Things got better each time, you know, and like even like one of the hygienists that I had. Kiera Dent (04:51) believe it. Yeah. Dr.Christy Moore (05:09) I told them we were gonna get digital x-rays, know, because we still had the old school x-rays for a while. When we went and got the digital x-rays, she prayed that Jesus would come back because she didn't want to have to do the training. I was like, seriously? Like you prayed that so that we didn't have to do the training? But yeah, there's people, people don't really like change, I found out. So. Kiera Dent (05:19) What? you No, not at all. Wow. I used to pray, I remember telling a dentist, I had a really strict dentist on our x-rays and I remember saying like, I hope I can make it into heaven if I can't pass x-rays off with you. Like I had a lot of sass as an assistant and that was what I was praying for Jesus for, but not to not have to learn it. Cause honestly, man, cause in dental school, like assisting school, I learned on film, like, which is so... Dr.Christy Moore (05:42) haha Yeah. Mm-hmm. Kiera Dent (05:54) embarrassing because I don't feel like I'm really that old but like truly I did. I remember taking the x-rays on Dexter and then when I went to a practice and it had digital I'm like hallelujah you can actually see where your misplacement of your x-ray machine is. I'm like this is so much faster like rather than waiting for it to come through then you're like oh shoot we cone cut and I had no clue like I can't imagine why anybody would be stressed to learn that because I'm like it was so much easier than film. So much easier. Dr.Christy Moore (06:01) yeah. Yes. Yeah. Yes, yes, absolutely. But that was the thing, like I think that you were a better, you know, x-ray taker before because you did not want to have to wait, you know, five minutes and then retake it and made another one. So you're like, okay, I want to make sure that I know how to do this and do this efficiently so that I don't have to take it again. Kiera Dent (06:39) mean, maybe that is why, because I was the one who actually trained a lot of the Midwestern students on radiology. They were having the doctors teach it and I was like, listen, guys, I'm not trying to tell you what to do, but I know you're not good at this and I'm actually really good at this. So why don't I teach these doctors how to like crush their FMX rather than you like, I'm like, you cone cut left and right guys. Like again, nothing personal. I'm just really good at this. So, but yeah, maybe that's why, cause I did learn on film originally and then went to. Dr.Christy Moore (06:59) Yes. Kiera Dent (07:06) by digital, but okay. So you go through this, you have an assistant praying for Jesus to come such an afternoon. Just go, okay. Now, now where are you at, Christy? Where's, where's life on the practice for you? Dr.Christy Moore (07:12) Yes, yes. So now we ⁓ practice in Sweetwater, Tennessee. So it's a small rural town. I have no idea how many people are there, but it's not a whole lot. But it's funny because now we have three doctors. I think we have four assistants. We have four hygienists, a treatment coordinator, an office manager, and an insurance coordinator, and two girls up front. Kiera Dent (07:43) So, and she has internet and likes computers. So we're good on that. That's incredible. You went from two to four and are you working on a second location? I feel like I've heard from Tiffany, like there's a mix with your friend, but like, is there a second location, just a solo location? What's kind of your plan with Dr.Christy Moore (07:47) Yes. Yes. It's a solo location, but I do have a friend that I went to dental school with and she actually is working in an office that's really just kind of down the street from me. And so we've been, I've been helping her quite a bit with that because she didn't really want to like, you know, run the practice or anything like that. And so I was like, well, I'll help you all that I can. So that's what we're kind of doing there, but it's an endo practice and I do not want to do endo at all. Kiera Dent (08:26) You're like, you will say good friends, you do your thing, I'll do my thing. And yeah. Exactly. And I know Tip just loves you. She loves coming to you. I know something that you have highlighted for me, like just in my time knowing you is one, you're always so positive and you're so fun. You make me laugh. But I think about your Christmas parties, like your holiday parties with your team. It's like sleepover at Christy's house, which. Dr.Christy Moore (08:30) Yeah, I'll refer all my endopations to you. Kiera Dent (08:48) Most doctors would never do that. And I just love you like, yeah, they love it. They come over, we do party, we have a slumber party, which I just think says a lot about you. So I'm curious, Christy, like something I think you do really well. Don't worry, there is a teaser. I want you guys to hear something she does really special, but I think you also do incredible for culture. What would you say to like owner doctors going from where you were to where you are today, having the culture that you built? What are some of the tips that you think you've done specifically as the owner and with your team? to have this amazing culture that you run, Christy. Like you just have a fun culture that's amazing. Dr.Christy Moore (09:20) ⁓ I think that my biggest thing is that I just try to treat people and treat my team the way I would want to be treated. You know, I was a team member for so long that that's all that I really knew. And sometimes I think it kind of came back and bit me a little bit just because I did allow things to go on a little bit longer in the beginning. But ⁓ I think treating people the way that I wanted to be treated has just been my motto for everything. The same way it was like dental stuff. Like I do for people in their mouth what I would want done. in my mouth, you know? So I think if you kind of live by those rules, then how can you go wrong? Kiera Dent (09:57) No, I agree with you. And Christy, this is just like your Southern hospitality. I'm always like, I want to go to Sweetwater and just have you be my dentist and work for you. Like just an amazing place that you do. I think kudos to you for doing that. I have a question. If you were to go back to 2012, you're buying this practice, what would be like the one, two or three, I'll allow it to three, things that you would tell yourself to get into place or things to know? Because I think so many owners are maybe where you were in 2012. Again, I have Wi-Fi. probably have at least a computer in the practice. But you know, you never know. I'm always shocked at what I, I walked into this office, he's elite, you know him, he's in our group. And I walked into his practice, I've been coaching for a while, like this man is doing really, really well in his practice. And I walked in and I was like, you have paper charts? Like you didn't bother to tell me for a year that this was maybe an issue? And he was like, no, it's fine. And I'm like, it is not fine. Like, what are you doing? Dr.Christy Moore (10:45) you It is not fine. Kiera Dent (10:51) like let's get you updated real quick. Kudos to him. I don't think usually doctors are that open to changing and he did so like mad kudos to him. I was like, Christy, I'll tell you off podcast air who this was and you will be shocked to like, wait, what? He's so like up to date on things. And I was like, okay, here we are. But if you could tell yourself back in 2012, what are like one, two or three things that you feel would just be good tips of advice for someone buying a practice or taking over a team or the growth you've had in the last 13 years? to get to the level that you are, because you're still happy, you still love dentistry, you still enjoy it, like there's still sparkle in your eye, don't, like every time you come to our calls, I don't feel like Christy's like dead on the ground, like she hates her life. Like I know you have moments of that, but I still think you're very happy. So what would be some things you would tell yourself going back into that back in 2012? Dr.Christy Moore (11:39) I think one of the biggest things, this is like no plug for the DLAA team or anything like that, but ⁓ I did not get a coach until about three years out of practice. ⁓ So I had practiced three years, I really wasn't growing, I really wasn't like going backwards, but I really wasn't growing or anything like that. And so at that point, that's when I actually brought on a coach. And I didn't bring on a coach because I was seeking one out. I had one just kind of show up at the office. And then it's like, he's... He's here, you know, like I can't like say, she's busy because, you know, he's sitting out in the reception room, like waiting for me. And so like, but it was one of the best things that I did. It was hard just because, you know, they offer advice that works for, you know, like a generalized, you know, group of dentists. ⁓ And so being able to take some of that advice, but also being able to put my own spin on it. ⁓ helped me out and I probably probably listening to the coaches a little bit more than what I did because they did allow grace for me to like drag my feet a little bit, you know, because there was things that had to be done that I didn't really want to do. ⁓ I'm you know, I've been on the disc profile for every, you know, so I'm definitely an IS. So I don't like to rock the boat and I like to have a good time. So like having tough conversations is one of the things that I do not like to do. Kiera Dent (12:56) Yes you are. Dr.Christy Moore (13:05) ⁓ So the other thing that I think that I would probably do is like make sure that I'm reading more books, learning how to be a leader and how to have those conversations, how to have it in a way that it's not like, I'm being the bad guy or I'm having to, you know, like be mean to somebody, but actually being able just to talk to them and just a conversation. And I've heard you say this a million times, it's a conversation, not a confrontation. And just knowing that because being clear is kind and I... not always as clear as what I needed to be. I just wanted everybody to have fun and like me and so I let things go that probably shouldn't have been able to continue. So that's probably the two biggest things is just working on myself as a leader and you know bringing somebody in to help me a little bit earlier. I'm glad that I did bring somebody in at three years ⁓ just because like I knew I didn't know what I didn't know. And I was like, well, I I think I need to be growing a little bit more than what I am, you being right out of dental school. So bringing somebody in, was definitely something I'm glad I did. I just wish I would have done it a little bit sooner. Kiera Dent (14:17) Sure. And Christy, I'll take all the plugs. Like, of course, the Dental A Team, like, yeah, having a coach is always a good thing. We love you as a client. And Tip, I know I really just watched you grow. And I do think that having someone teach you what you don't know. And mean, Christy, you came in with a lot of experience. So even like dentists who weren't assistants, weren't hygienists, I mean, you already came with a pretty good dental pedigree chart to you ⁓ to have that. agree. And even for me, I'm like, I coach businesses and yet having a coach, having someone guide me that's been there, done that, done that successfully, I think. Dr.Christy Moore (14:20) Ha Kiera Dent (14:47) is so helpful and I agree the leadership piece it's like well you did four years of dental school to learn how to get that prep get that crown it's like well let's also do at least that amount of time to be leaders and leadership is not like something you you end up at you get your degree it's a forever journey so it's like all right here we are let's settle in like this is what we elected to do but Christy I do and Tiff will say that she's watched you grow a lot which is really fun for us to see you grow and evolve too ⁓ but Dr.Christy Moore (15:01) No. Yeah. Kiera Dent (15:15) I've teased this out a couple of times. Christy has the Botox practice. Like they, she actually has done it. She's cracked the code. So many offices are like, no, I only have Botox in here to do my own face. So Christy, I want to talk about this because I've been jonesing to talk about this. I secretly want to know too, but how on earth have you cracked the code to get Botox to be a profitable portion, a big piece of your practice? ⁓ Because I think like everybody wants to do this and no one knows how to do it. Like literally, I think you are my first office to ever. actually have it be successful. So Christy, take us away on Botox. I know people, I'm I've been waiting to drop this because I'm like, it's going to be so great. No one knows how to do this other than Christy Moore. So let's let it rip. Dr.Christy Moore (15:57) Well, the thing too is like anybody can do it. Like if I can do it in Sweetwater, Tennessee, like anybody can do this anywhere. Actually, I started with the first course that I ever took was probably, I think it was like 2016 or something like that. And the only reason I took the course was because I had the girls in the office wanted me to do it and a couple of patients. Yeah. And so I went and took the course and while I was at the course, I ended up signing up for the TMD course like the next day. Like that wasn't even on the plan. Kiera Dent (16:15) Yep. ⁓ Dr.Christy Moore (16:26) but I went ahead and signed up for that. And that was like a true passion for me just because I was like, wow, like this does more than just, you know, helps with wrinkles. This can actually help patients. This is problems that they're having when they come in the office. And so like I did that part and then I come back to work and it's like, okay, now what? You know, so like one of the things that I started doing was I was like, okay, girls, you got to get in the chair. We're going to do some, we're going to do some Botox on you, you know? And so that was kind of how it started. We, did the team members. Kiera Dent (16:51) Yeah. Dr.Christy Moore (16:54) I had a few steady patients that would come in, but it really didn't go quick. It was a slow going thing at first. ⁓ And then I started talking to patients about TMD issues, clenching and grinding, they're coming in with headaches. Men typically don't have pain associated with it, but a lot of women do. And so I would say, well, you know what? What's really helped me is that I can go in here and treat your masseters. and with some Botox there and then that can help you quit clenching and it helps with headaches. I'm going over that and then their next thing out of their mouth is, well, if you can do my massagers, can you help my face too? And I'm like, oh, well, actually, yes, we can. We can help you out there. And then it just kind of get a little bit more, a few more patients, word of mouth. And it really wasn't until probably about two or three years ago. you know, we just doing more and more people. And then I brought in a marketing person who's actually my daughter and she's my treatment coordinator as well. And she's just really put it out there on social media. And she got these PowerPoints together and this is what we play. Like it's in the reception room, it's in all the treatment rooms. And it's just like what can be done, what all we offer. And so from 2016 to now, Like we've moved from just doing like Botox, but we kind of do like all the stuff. You know, we do filler, we do threads, we do smooth threads, we do lifting threads, we do micro-needling. And then we recently just got a laser as well. So, you know, that's one of the things that just kind of getting the word out and letting people know is the biggest hurdle. And that was probably the biggest thing that helped us for sure about getting the word out. Now we have people... that call in and like we just recently had a guy call in and he wanted to a coupon. I want to know if we had coupons for the wife because he wanted to give her a gift certificate for a Botox. He found us online. So just getting the word out there is probably the hardest thing, but it's the best thing to do. treating your team members because they're walking advertisements. And who better to practice on than your team members because Kiera Dent (18:55) Thank Dr.Christy Moore (19:11) You know, if you mess up, which you can, you know, they're more forgiving and then you get, you know, the next time around you get another little chance to do it a little bit better. And then you're like, okay, now you're learning. So not only are you getting advertisement out there, but you're learning as you go too. And I've done like all kinds of training. And I don't just go with one person. Like I've done like several different. I've done faces, I've done metastatics, I've done the AAFE, I did a couple of different individual people because I feel like if you can learn from everybody and take a little bit from everybody and then you bring it in and make it your own and I think that's kind what we've done at our little office. Kiera Dent (19:56) I love it, Christy. Okay, let's talk about it. A few things I've noticed is you guys have a big Botox sign in your practice. I think it's hot pink. Is this really true? I'm pretty sure. I thought about you, right? Okay, so. Dr.Christy Moore (20:05) Mm-hmm Yeah, we have a slideshow and it's got it's got all the talks it's got everything on there. Yeah The neon sign Yeah Kiera Dent (20:13) Yeah, so one thing is, it's neon. That's what I'm saying. It's like a tube neon, Botox across her wall sign that I'm like, okay, number one, yes. This is what I'm talking about. When you wanna market something and people are like, I can't get Botox. I'm like, well, nobody even knows that you even do it. So, Christy, you're like loud and bold about it. It's a hot pink sign that I remember. I saw people under it. I've seen it on your social. But one of the things, like how else? Dr.Christy Moore (20:23) Says less talks about it. Yeah. yeah. Kiera Dent (20:42) I also love that you talked about you treatment plan it in. Like you as a dentist are treatment planning this Botox and looking at their masseter muscles, just like anything else. I feel like you've done a really good job of pulling that into just even do it clinically, not just aesthetically, which I think that's also really great. But what would you say if I'm a new dentist? And I also love these to have taken it from so many people because I did have someone give me Botox and I full blown got a halo. Like it was so thick, it was so heavy. And I'm like, oh my gosh, I've never, like, I need my eyebrows off my eyes. Like get that up. It feels terrible. So I'm glad to hear that you're like just constantly going, but what would you say? Okay, new dentist, I just took the course. I'm super excited. I think one, it bold. Two, do the masseters. Cause that's a very easy way to start treatment planning and talking about it for word of mouth. But what else would you say to do? Like, I mean, you got the whole PowerPoint. So. What would you say would be avenue one, two or three to really grow this to get it as a big portion of my practice? Dr.Christy Moore (21:39) Working on friends and family, working on your team, that's the number one thing. And then just getting it out there on social media. Having your team, even if you're doing injections on them, videoing that, getting out there and doing stuff. like Laken, she makes me do things that is uncomfortable for me. And so she's like, oh, you'll be fine. You're gonna get out here and you're gonna do it. She did like a... a Facebook live where I'm doing filler and she asked me a question and I don't answer her and she's like, what? was like, well, maybe I didn't know the answer. So if I don't know the answer, I'm just not gonna answer you. And she's like, well, it's okay. I'm just doing filler words here. We're just trying to make the conversation go. And I'm like, okay. But getting out there and just letting people know, that is the biggest thing. It's new to our practice. It's, let's. do specials, like we've done Botox parties. ⁓ We did like a Sips and Scans and Botox. We've done kind of all types of little things where we've actually give people discounts just to get them in. We've actually gone out and gave ⁓ like little coupons out to like the different salons in the area, just trying to get the word out there any way that we can to let people know, hey, we're doing this. Who's gonna know your face better than anybody than a dentist? I mean, we have like a whole semester on just head and neck anatomy. And so like that's, it's just the thing that they're like, I didn't know a dentist could do that. And you know, and it's like, well, yeah, like we're probably really good at doing it. You know, just because we do know the muscles, we do know everything as far as like this works this way, this works that way, you know, making sure that you're treating the patient, not just the face, like making sure that we're, cause I do have people come in and they're like, well I want some Botox up here. Kiera Dent (23:15) Thank Dr.Christy Moore (23:33) And it may be like older ladies and like they've already got the hooded eyelids. And I'm like, honey, I can't do a lot of Botox up there. Like I can take away your wrinkles, but if I do that, like you're not gonna be able to hold your eyelids up. So it's gonna make it harder for you to see. When they're like, oh, well, I don't want that. So just kind of knowing your anatomy, knowing what muscles do what, and then not being afraid to go in and just try it. Just get in there and do it. It's not. Even if you think you've messed somebody up, I mean, it's what, three months? So it's not anything that you can't recover from. And then patients are very forgiving. They're very understanding. ⁓ In my time of doing it, I've had two people that I've actually give a little crooked smile to. And both of them are like, it's okay. Don't worry about it. And I feel horrible. And they're like, no, it's okay. It'll be better. It's not really that noticeable. And I'm like, Kiera Dent (24:06) Exactly. Dr.Christy Moore (24:31) I notice it, you know? So I'm just doing it because people, want it. They don't want to go anywhere else. They want you to be able to do it. And if you can do it, then why not? You know? So I think that just not being afraid just to try it and do it and just, even if you're scared, like do it scared. Like I heard, I seen that the other day and it was like, you I'm nervous every time I get up and speak in front of somebody and they're like, well, how do you do it? He said, I just get up and do it scared. I'm like, that's... Kiera Dent (24:42) Mm-hmm. Dr.Christy Moore (25:00) That's so interesting because a lot of people, they're like, well, I'm scared. I'm not going to do it. And so if you don't do it, you're never going to not get scared or not get you. You got to get comfortable. You got to be comfortable being uncomfortable. And that's the only way to do it is just to get in there and do it. Kiera Dent (25:17) I agree. Christy, I love that. And I love that you just talked about, like, I think something that you did differently is you decided this would be a portion of your practice. It's not just for the ladies in the practice. You're like, no, we're going to have this as a portion. We're going to make this like it's a full procedure in our office. I'm not just doing it for like our team. And I think that that's something where you went in with that attitude. I think there's a huge passion that you have on it, but I agree. think there are girls like, Kiera, who does your Botox? I'm like, the dentist. And they're like, what? Dr.Christy Moore (25:45) Mm-hmm. Kiera Dent (25:46) And I'm like, yeah. Dr.Christy Moore (25:46) Yeah. Kiera Dent (25:47) And I also love dentists because I went to a dentist versus an esthetician versus an MD. I've gone through three different people. The esthetician gave me the most amount of Botox. That's the one where I got the hood. Like, believe it or not, she's the one who gave it to me. And like, the amount of Botox she put in me was incredible. Then I went to an MD who was doing it. And he also like it was a lot like my face was frozen solid, frozen, frozen. And I'm like, all right, so we're like, he did bro-tox, which that's a good phrase. I think that if you wanted to target the men, he called it bro-tox for the men, which I that was super clever. But my husband even like, he could not move his face at all. So it was a little, in my opinion, excessive. But dentists I feel are more conservative on the botox level. You don't tend to go quite as much as the estheticians or the MDs, which I appreciate. ⁓ Like you said, you know the muscles, you know the anatomy super well. And I think like, go for it, have it as a portion. Dr.Christy Moore (26:21) Mm-hmm. Kiera Dent (26:43) So with your numbers, because Christy, I know you know your numbers, like what percentage of your practice does Botox bring in? Do you know that? I could be putting you on the spot. So maybe I'm like, you're taught her and I'm asking you questions you don't. Dr.Christy Moore (26:53) Yeah, I'm not really 100 % sure to be honest with you. I would say it's at least probably at least 10%. You know, I would like for it to be more. And that's one of my goals is to get that side of the business to be, you know, grow and be more because like for me, like as a dentist, we hear all the time, you know, I hate the dentist. Oh, no offense, but I hate the dentist. Are you going to stick that needle in my mouth? Are you going to stick that in my guns? You know, I've never had one person ever say, Kiera Dent (27:01) I think so too. Dr.Christy Moore (27:23) I hate my injector. You know, are you going to stick that needle in my face? Like, no, they love you. They want the, and they, they, they will pay money for it. You don't have to worry about insurance, you know, when you're doing that part. So I would definitely like for that to be more like, if I can have my whole day just doing like the aesthetic stuff, like that would be my ideal day, you know, because that's, it's, it's almost like, it's like a masterpiece. You know, you've got, you've got this canvas and you're not changing people. You're just enhancing what they already have. Kiera Dent (27:43) was amazing. Dr.Christy Moore (27:53) You know, like I don't want to go in, my goal is that when somebody leaves the practice that they don't actually look like they've had Botox or they don't look like they've had filler. I want them to look fresh, not frozen, like you said. And so like, you know, that goes back to like knowing the muscles, watching the patient, treating the actual patient instead of like the cookie cutter, you know, oh, well, to treat the glabella, you know, you need, you know, 20 to 24 units, you know, to treat the frontalis, you need 20 to 24 units, you know. It's like, okay, well, they pull really hard here, but they don't really pull hard here. So let's treat it this way, you know? And so, like, so, cause each one of them are like FDA approved for a certain amount, you know? And that, and that's like the standard, but everybody's different. And so that's my, you know, I just want to make sure that I treat the patients, treat the patient the way the patient needs to be treated. Kiera Dent (28:30) Yeah. Amen. And I love that about Christy and I think like, okay, I just did some math. So let's say you have a million dollar practice 10 % that's 100 grand pulling in, which I know Christy, your practice is not the million dollar practice. You guys can do the math, you can figure it out. But like if it's 10 % think about that, that's an extra hundred thousand. The overhead on it's pretty minimal. It's a great piece. Like you said, you're able to do these extra pieces. And you're right, there's no insurance. People pay top dollar to stay looking young. It's incredible. Like Dr.Christy Moore (29:11) the Kiera Dent (29:12) ⁓ I also was thinking of there's people all around here and they're called like the injection queen or they're like, so it's like really on their social media. It's not just their dentistry piece, but it's this whole portion of aesthetics that people then are coming for it because they want to look good. I saw an office at dental practice and they literally have a Botox membership plan. And I was like, that is freaking clever. Yeah, tell us about it. Okay, tell more about this. How does it work and do people really sign up for it? Cause I think it's so smart. Dr.Christy Moore (29:32) We have that. Yeah. Absolutely, absolutely they sign up for it. And so I, of course, I don't try to reinvent the wheel. I got it from somebody else, but it's basically a membership plan. They pay for 20 units for the year. So it's 20 units for four times throughout the year. If they don't use it, they lose it. But once they pay for that, so their initial upfront payment is probably a little bit more, but it ends up saving them about $300 throughout the year. Kiera Dent (29:58) Mm-hmm. Dr.Christy Moore (30:07) but it actually like they pre-play for 20 units each time. so, you know, so it's just, and then they get a discount on the actual dollar amount that they actually get. So, you know, like if you have somebody that typically gets 50 units, then they only have to pay for 30 units each time that they come in. So it actually, and I tell them, they're like, ⁓ that's a whole lot better, because then my husband don't ask questions on, it's less, that's less about. And I'm like, yeah, absolutely. And I've had people actually even put money in, pay throughout that just so that they have it. And that's when I was like, well, why don't we do a membership plan? That makes it a whole lot easier. And also I wanted to reward my patients that have been loyal, that have been coming in. Times are changing, and so prices go up. Kiera Dent (30:46) yet. Dr.Christy Moore (30:56) And so like I didn't really want to have to like increase my price just because, know, you know, I've been doing it for a while. I've really not changed my price and I didn't want to have to change my price. So my people that have been coming in and loyal to me, I wanted to be able to give them, give back to them and give, you know, give them the opportunity to keep it at the price that I was doing it for. And so that's kind that was one of the other, you know, benefits for me is so that I could actually give back to those people that trusted me with their face. when I was still learning and stuff. ⁓ And so it's worked out really well. I don't know how many people we have on it now, but we get people like just about every day when they come in, we'll have at least like one or two a week that'll sign up on the membership plan. Kiera Dent (31:41) which is so smart because Botox is like better than profies. Like they have to come in every three months rather than every six months. ⁓ It is something where I'm not gonna lie. Like my husband, it was random. He did tell me, I got it done. And a couple of days later, he didn't know. Cause I get it on the road, Christy. I'm one of those, I mean, I work with a lot of dentists. So when I'm traveling around, I get my face frozen and I came home and my husband's like, gosh, Kiera, you look a lot better. Like what, did you change your hair? And I was like, Dr.Christy Moore (31:45) Mm-hmm. Kiera Dent (32:09) No, my face just looks younger and you can definitely tell and I appreciate that. And when you get that reinforcement, you're like, yes, I'm going to keep up with this and I want to. And it's the only like proactive preventative way right now. Like there's biohacking on all the levels, but just having that as a piece for it. And so I think it's just an awesome, awesome thing to do. I love the membership plan. I love that you're growing it. Like this is where I saying, like you have cracked the code on how to do it. And I was like, I've got to dig into this. And I want people to hear because Dr.Christy Moore (32:16) Yes. Kiera Dent (32:37) I think Christy, it also keeps your excitement for dentistry alive. I think you get passionate because it's a new passion project. It's fun for you. It's something different. I love that you said like, I want you looking fresh, not frozen. It made me giggle. like, you want me to still look alive rather than dead in my coffin? Like, God, I agree. That's how I want to feel too. So thank you. ⁓ But any other thoughts you have of practices wanting to put in Botox or anything else about your practice? Because this is like Dr.Christy Moore (32:44) Mm-hmm. Yes. Kiera Dent (33:02) the nuts and bolts of what I want to talk about tonight. So any last thoughts you have around it, because I truly appreciate you just coming on and sharing what you're doing in your practice. Dr.Christy Moore (33:11) I think the biggest thing is just, you you just have to do it. You know, like I said before, if you're scared to do it, just do it scared. You know, after so many times, it's not as scary anymore. Like we actually have ⁓ in our schedule, like we have blocks for like our tox patients for them to come in. And so, you know, those may get filled, they may not get filled. But when they get filled, like it's always like, it's usually an extra anywhere between 500 to $1,000. for just a little extra that doesn't really take me that long. Like I come in and I look and I'm like, okay, this is what we're gonna do. The girls draw it up, they have it already. I come back in, the face is clean, the photos are taken. We did injections and then the patient's out the door. And so it's basically like a hygiene check for me. So I'm in and out quick. But the patients have been in there with a team member, so they feel like they're getting heard. Kiera Dent (34:00) Mm-hmm. Dr.Christy Moore (34:09) They know all of their concerns are being addressed. so, you know, just having a team there that supports you and believes in you. And like once they believe in you, then, you know, then that's how the patients start believing in you. Kiera Dent (34:22) Awesome, Christy. I love that so much. I'm like, gosh, doctors, when you're complaining to us about your Delta Dental ⁓ exam pricing, well, maybe throw a little bit of those botox ones. Like you said, I'm like, $500 exam versus my $30 exam feels a little bit more fun, a little more fun for you. But Christy, kudos to it. And all of you listening, I hope you just took notes. You realize like you can add these as portions of your practice and not just like a small sliver, but a true like 10 % of your practice bringing that in. having it be a big portion of it. And like you said, giving back to people. I prefer a dentist to do my Botox over an esthetician or an MD. And that's me personally, who's gone to several different people, people who are the best, people who are over that. And I mean, Botox are paying $10 to $12 a unit with Botox or Disport. That's a pretty good gig all the way around. And I just think it's a fun thing. So Christy, thanks for being in our life. These are the things, the way I found out was in our doctor mastermind. We have our doctor only, and I was like. Christy's doing Botox, I'm gonna put it on the podcast and talk about this more. So this is fun stuff to also have you as a client, to have you in our life, to have you in our world. You just bring a wealth of goodness, Christy. So thanks for being on the podcast. I know it's the end of your day, so thanks for coming. Yeah, of course, super happy to have you. Of course. And for all of you listening, go figure out how to put Botox in your schedule. Go figure out how to do this. Do it scared, whatever it is for you, do it scared. If we can help in any way, reach out Hello@TheDentalATeam.com. And as always, thanks for listening. We'll catch you next time. Dr.Christy Moore (35:28) Well, thank you. Thank you. Kiera Dent (35:47) The Dental A Team podcast.

What unique or creative referral ideas could you implement in your own business to stand out and stay memorable in your industry? Are your referrals driven by genuine advocacy, or by what's in it for them? In this episode, I shared insights on building a strong referral system that truly works. I talked about how referrals remain one of the most powerful ways to grow your business, especially as traditional selling methods slow down. I explained the importance of understanding whether someone refers you for the love of you or for the love of themselves. This means knowing who truly advocates for you and who needs a little something extra to promote your work. I shared real-life stories, like my experience purchasing a bulk order of Mike Michalowicz's book to access a unique bonus, which led to creative ways to connect with my own network. I emphasized the value of making your referral requests simple, providing resources like swipe copy, and focusing on the overlap between those who believe in you and those who benefit directly. If you found these ideas helpful and want to build a referral strategy that feels good for everyone involved, please share this episode with friends or colleagues who might benefit too.
