Have you ever felt like no matter how much you try to explain yourself, people just don't really understand you? That feeling can seem like a relationship issue on the surface. But what if there is more happening underneath? In this short breakthrough episode, Brandy shares an important insight from working with a beautiful volunteer who had been dealing with recurring health challenges and had spent years working on healing, nutrition, positive thinking, and personal growth. Yet when Brandy began looking deeper, something unexpected surfaced: a strong emotional pattern connected with feeling unheard and misunderstood. What made it especially interesting was that the volunteer did not initially realize how much anger and frustration were connected to this pattern. As Brandy began addressing the feeling of being heard and understood, the volunteer immediately noticed a physical shift in her shoulders. In this episode, you'll discover: • Why feeling misunderstood can become a deeper emotional pattern • How frustration and anger can remain active even when you see yourself as positive and loving • Why the need to be heard can create ongoing inner tension • What to notice if feeling misunderstood has become a recurring theme in your life • How changing the emotional pattern may begin creating more connection, harmony, and freedom Sometimes the emotions affecting us most are not the ones we consciously recognize. And becoming aware of what is really happening underneath can be the beginning of a powerful shift. → Continue Your Self-Healing Journey Listen to the Full Volunteer Self-Healing Session Click here to access today's self-healing session as Brandy Gillmore works directly with Tasha Free Mind-Body Healing Training If you'd like a deeper understanding of mind-body healing and how self-healing works: Click here to join the FREE training.

Have you ever walked away from a conversation with your spouse thinking, "That's not what I meant at all"? Or wondered why you keep having the same argument over and over again? The truth is, most couples aren't struggling because they don't love each other, they're struggling because they communicate differently. In this episode, Dr. Kim is joined by licensed therapist and author Jason Van Ruler to unpack the five communication types and why understanding your spouse's communication style can completely change the way you approach conflict. They talk about why we so often take our differences personally, how stress affects the way we communicate, and why learning to truly listen may be the most powerful thing you can do for your marriage. If you've ever felt misunderstood or wished your spouse "just got you," this conversation will help you replace frustration with understanding and give you practical tools to communicate in a way that brings you closer instead of pushing you apart. Episode Highlights: Why communication breaks down—and why it's probably not for the reason you think. Discover your communication type and learn how it shapes every conversation with your spouse. Simple shifts that will help you feel more seen, heard, and understood in your marriage. Stop taking communication differences personally and start using them to grow closer. Quotes from This Episode: Jason VanRuler "We aren't very well versed in communicating for connection." "The more we feel we can't communicate, the more we believe the lie that our spouse must like it that way." "We're experts in what we meant, but we're not experts in what our spouse experienced." "Understanding your communication type takes the personal offense out of conflict and helps you ask, 'What did they mean?'" "A great communicator isn't someone who thinks they're communicating well—it's someone who understands how other people experience them." "When life gets hard, we all go back to our primary communication style. That's why understanding each other matters most in conflict." "From birth, we all want to feel seen, heard, and understood." Dr. Kim Kimberling "Most couples don't know why they struggle to communicate—they just know it creates distance." "We're fighting our differences instead of embracing them and learning how they can strengthen our marriage." "Bad communication gets in the way of being a great team." "When I really learned to listen to Nancy, it changed our marriage." "Sometimes the simplest advice is the most powerful: let your spouse finish." "If you attack the problem, you can find a solution. If you dance around it, you'll never solve it." "The healthiest marriages keep working on communication because every season of life requires new ways of understanding each other." Time to Talk About it: When do you feel the most heard and understood by me? Is there anything I could do differently to help you feel that way more often? Which communication style do you think describes each of us best, and how have our differences helped—or challenged—our marriage? What's one small change we could each make this week to communicate with more grace, patience, and understanding?

What if the biggest problem facing men today isn't a lack of discipline, ambition, or opportunity? What if it's that most men don't actually know who they are? In this episode of The Super Human Life, Frank Rich sits down with Tim Couet, author of Identity Assignment, to unpack why so many men are winning externally while still feeling lost internally. Tim believes two issues sit underneath much of the chaos men experience today: Identity and priorities. Rather than building your identity around career, money, status, performance, or achievement, Tim argues that a man's identity has already been assigned by God. Using Genesis 2:15 as the foundation, Tim explains why the biblical assignment of man can be summarized in two words: Serve. Protect. From there, Frank and Tim explore what happens when a man begins living from that identity—and what happens when his priorities fall out of alignment. They discuss marriage, fatherhood, work, lust, pornography, achievement, the modern church, the loss of initiation into manhood, and why the thing many men are ultimately chasing may not actually be more success. It may be peace. In This Episode, You'll Learn Why identity and priorities are two of the biggest issues facing men today Why men often confuse what they do with who they are What Genesis 2:15 reveals about the assignment of men Why Tim believes men are called to serve and protect How work quietly becomes the highest priority for many men Why trust in marriage is rebuilt through evidence and consistency How identity can change a man's relationship with lust and women Why you cannot simply achieve your way out of internal struggles The difference between being a biological male and becoming a mature man Where the modern church may be falling short in developing men Why young men need intentional initiation into adulthood Why many men are chasing achievement when what they really want is peace How this framework applies to married men, single men, fathers, and men rebuilding their lives Why Jesus is the ultimate example of both a servant and protector About Tim Couet Tim Couet is the author of Identity Assignment and founder of Prodigal Man, a ministry focused on helping men understand their identity in Christ and become the leaders God has called them to be. He also hosts Altar'd Manhood and Mentoring Christian Men Worldwide. Tim and his wife, Mettina, have been married for more than 17 years and have four children. He currently serves as the Chief Deputy Tax Collector of Pasco County, Florida and is actively involved in men's ministry at Grace Family Church.

Martin Luther's outrage over a corrupt church selling indulgences helped ignite the Reformation, but the beliefs that grew out of that upheaval still shape Christianity centuries later. Zach, Al, John Luke, and Christian trace Luther's struggle with righteousness through Romans, his controversial problem with the book of James, and the tension between faith and works that Christians still wrestle with today. The guys confront the limits of human understanding, exploring whether our obsession with certainty leads us to argue over mysteries we were never equipped to solve. In this episode: Romans 1:16-17, 20; Romans 3; Romans 4; Romans 6-8; Romans 10; 1 Corinthians 15:1-4; James 2; Hebrews 11 Today's conversation is about Lesson 7 of Theology 101: The Western Theological Tradition taught by various Hillsdale Professors.

Have you ever chased connection until you felt rejected one too many times... and then suddenly found yourself pulling away?In this episode, we're exploring the push-pull pattern that happens when our attempts to feel safe accidentally keep the cycle going. I'm sharing how I learned to use distance to get connection, why we can move between chasing and withdrawing, and the question that helped me understand why the same relationship dynamics kept showing up in my life.If you've ever wondered, “Why do I keep ending up in relationships like this?” this episode will give you a different question to ask.This episode is for you if...* You keep finding yourself in anxious/avoidant or push-pull relationships* You chase connection until you feel rejected, then suddenly shut down* You judge yourself for how you've behaved in past relationships* You keep wondering why the same relationship dynamic follows youYour invitation…Instead of asking, “Why do I keep ending up in relationships like this?” try asking yourself:“What is the lesson I'm being invited to learn when I find myself in this relationship dynamic?”Actually write the answer down, and if you feel open to sharing, leave it in the comments.Maybe this relationship isn't proof that something is wrong with you. Maybe it's illuminating something you're finally ready to see.And if you want to go beyond understanding the push-pull pattern and actually tend to the part of you living inside of it, last week's members-only episode is a guided Shadow Work + Inner Child Healing practice specifically for this dynamic.Click here to learn more and join our growing Codependency Alchemy community on Substack This is a public episode.

This week on the KORE Women podcast, Dr. Summer Watson is joined by Becky Estby, who is the CEO of Next Monday, leadership consultant, executive coach, and author of the upcoming book Uncommon Courage. After years of working in senior HR and organizational development roles, Becky noticed a pattern among high-achieving women: many were succeeding professionally while quietly struggling with self-doubt, burnout, and a sense of misalignment. Today, she helps women challenge the belief that they are the problem and instead redefine success, courage, and belonging in ways that honor who they truly are. If you've ever questioned whether success should feel different, this conversation is for you.

Where do our fights really come from?In Part IV of Street Smart, we turn to James 4 and discover that the conflicts around us often begin with something happening within us. Behind our anger, arguments, frustration, and offense are often unmet desires—a need to be right, respected, recognized, comfortable, or in control.James challenges us to stop looking only at the person across from us and examine the battle happening within our own hearts. Sometimes we're not peaceful people who suddenly get provoked; we're already carrying hurt, anger, exhaustion, and unmet expectations that spill out when something finally pushes us over the edge.But Scripture offers another way.Rather than adopting the world's mindset of grabbing, winning, climbing, and getting more, James calls followers of Jesus toward humility and surrender. God doesn't abandon us when we fail—He gives more grace.Through James 4, we discover five steps toward handling conflict differently:Recognize the source of the conflict.Realize there are consequences.Repent of the attitude.Resist the devil.Rest in God.Real peace isn't found in finally getting everyone around us to behave the way we want. It's found when we submit ourselves to God, draw near to Him, surrender our pride, and allow Him to work within us.The world tells us the way up is to climb over everyone else.James gives us a radically different kind of street wisdom:The way to the top is to get down.
Pags dives into the Enes Kanter Freedom and Royce White WNBA controversy, finding plenty of hilarity in a debate that raises a very serious question about the future of women's sports. The phones light up as listeners say they've had enough of institutions bending over backward to accommodate a tiny percentage of the population. Then YouTuber, reporter and storyteller Alessi Allaman joins Pags for a disturbing deep dive into Flock cameras and America's rapidly expanding surveillance network. What exactly are these cameras collecting? Why are some positioned near parks and swimming pools? Who has access to the data? And what about allegations of law-enforcement officers misusing surveillance systems to track women? Allaman reveals what he's uncovered, what Americans aren't being told, and why the cameras popping up seemingly everywhere deserve a much closer look. Learn more about your ad choices.

Thought leader and researcher Penny Kelly joins the Thrive Hour for an in-depth conversation about consciousness, human potential, and where humanity may be headed. Kelly's life took an extraordinary turn after what she describes as a spontaneous kundalini awakening in 1979. At the time, she was an engineer with Chrysler Corporation. That experience led her down a completely different path, dedicating her life to understanding the brain, consciousness, intuition, and the untapped capabilities of the human mind.You can learn more about her and her work at PennyKelly.com.See the extended segment with Penny Kelly at SarahWestall.Substack.com.
The next great shift in philanthropy may not be about younger donors. It may be about who makes the decisions. Women increasingly influence financial decisions and are positioned to inherit (and ultimately direct) enormous amounts of wealth. Fundraisers need to rethink how they build relationships with couples, surviving spouses, and families.
What happens when judges discover that a decision they reached - properly, carefully, and according to the evidence before them - was terribly wrong? The Torah's law of Eidim Zomemim - plotting witnesses - presents an extraordinary case. A second pair of witnesses establishes that the original witnesses could not possibly have seen what they claimed to have seen. The Torah prescribes a unique punishment: the false witnesses are subject to the punishment they sought to impose on the defendant. But Rabbi Henoch Singer points to a deeper lesson. The new testimony doesn't only expose the original witnesses. It forces the judges to confront the fact that testimony they had accepted as valid was false - and that their judgment could have cost an innocent person his life. Their response is a model of humility for judges, leaders, and every one of us. They don't defend the earlier decision simply because it was theirs. When new evidence establishes that they got it terribly wrong, they act to correct it. An ancient and highly technical rule of Torah evidence thus teaches something urgently relevant to our own lives: being responsible doesn't mean never getting it wrong. It means having the humility to recognize when we did - and the courage to make it right.

Interior design, visual clutter, nervous system regulation, and psychology-led design may be more connected than you realize. The spaces we live and work in don't just affect what we see—they can influence how we feel, focus, function, and experience everyday life. In this episode of the Starter Girlz Podcast, Jennifer Loehding sits down with interior designer Loren Ng for a fascinating conversation about why good design goes far beyond aesthetics. Loren takes a holistic approach to understanding how people actually live in their spaces, including the conscious and subconscious needs they may not know how to articulate. From the visual clutter we eventually stop noticing to the small frustrations she calls “quiet friction,” she explains how our environments can either work with us—or quietly work against us. The conversation explores nervous system regulation, invisible wellness, clutter, functionality, and why creating a space that truly supports you begins with understanding the person living inside it. ABOUT LOREN NG Loren Ng is the founder and principal designer of Loren Ng Designs. Her approach to interior design goes beyond aesthetics, focusing on understanding how people experience and interact with the spaces around them. Through a holistic design process, Loren works to uncover her clients' conscious and subconscious needs, identify pain points and “quiet friction,” and create environments that support the way people actually live. Her work extends beyond residential design into commercial spaces, where she also considers how an environment can shape the experience of customers and support a business's brand.

Have you ever found yourself in a bad situation, made a poor choice, and made the whole mess ten times worse? When you're sitting at rock bottom—basking in your own mistakes and wondering, "God, now what?"—where do you turn? In this message, "Confidence in Troubled Times," we dive into Psalm chapter 3 to look at a dark, messy moment in King David's life. Facing a heartbreaking family betrayal and fleeing for his life from his own son Absalom, David was in a pit of despair—much of it brought on by his own passivity and poor choices. Yet, in the middle of chaos, David learned that when you've hit rock bottom, there's only one direction left to look: UP. Join us as we explore how God meets us in our deepest messes, restores our peace, and proves that if you still have breath, you still have hope. Key Takeaways & Questions to Ponder: • What do you do when a bad situation gets worse? Learn why trying to "dig yourself out" only gets you deeper in the mud—and why crying out to God is the only way out. • Can God still use a broken life? Discover the comforting truth that God regularly uses sinful, imperfect servants to display His incredible grace. • How do you find sleep when anxiety is racing? See how David slept peacefully surrounded by thousands of enemies because he knew the Lord was his shield and sustainer. Are you called to walk with someone in their mess? Realize how you can be an unmentioned hero by bearing another's burden during their most difficult season. If this message encouraged you today, please share it with someone who needs a reminder of God's grace in troubled times! #Psalm3 #ConfidenceInTroubledTimes #Sermon #ChristianFaith #KingDavid #GraceAndMercy #PeaceInTheStorm #Hope

Why can the final moments of an experience shape how we remember the whole thing?In this Think Thursday episode, Molly explores the peak-end rule—the brain's tendency to remember an experience largely through its most emotionally intense moment and the way it ended.You'll learn:What Daniel Kahneman's cold-water experiment revealed about memory and discomfortWhy patients sometimes remembered a longer medical procedure more favorably when it ended more gentlyThe difference between the experiencing self and the remembering selfHow endings influence what the brain expects and whether we are willing to try againWhy a difficult day, conversation, workout, or imperfect attempt does not have to end as a verdictThree questions that can help create a more useful ending:What happened?What did I learn?What is the next best step?The goal is not to pretend that every experience was positive. It is to recognize that endings become part of the story the brain carries forward.Key takeaway: One difficult moment does not have to write the final sentence. Ending with clarity and agency can shape what you remember—and whether you are willing to begin again. ★ Support this podcast ★
It's a common trajectory: Dental schools create great dentists, but they don't create good business owners. Kiera shares three critical (but attainable!) tips for creating a profitable, scalable, and enjoyable practice, so doctors can continue doing the work they love. Episode resources: Subscribe to The Dental A-Team podcast Schedule a Practice Assessment Leave us a review Transcript: Kiera Dent- Dental A Team (00:00) Hello, Dental A Team listeners. This is Kiera. And today I'm excited to chat with practice owners, office managers, and to kind of just talk about like what every practice owner should know. But I think a lot of us learn that too late. Myself included, I feel like business owners, I feel like we are great at our craft, but at business we learn it a little too late. And so I think that like I looked at all of our students at Midwestern and they learned how to be great dentists, but they didn't. learn how to become great business owners. And we hear this all the time. I'm not saying anything new. I just think that a lot of practices hit ceilings because it's not their clinical skills. It's the business outgrows their knowledge. It's like, hey, take me to the moon. You're like, I've never been to the moon. And so I think just being able to help practice owners today realize in office managers, like leadership systems and financial decisions really are like the core. That's why we call it the yes success model. So you, that's the leadership, systems and earnings. Like that's really what makes up a successful practice. But I feel like that feels so easy. But I want to just walk through like what are three things that every business owner needs to know to have a profitable, scalable and enjoyable practice. You guys the Dental A Team like we work with hundreds of practices across the nation from startup practices to multi-million dollar offices. And what I realize is the challenges are all the same. Like it's fundamentally stays the same. It just gets bigger or smaller based on the size of practice that you're in. And so I think so many people know how to work really hard. I think so many people outproduce their problems. I think so many people they just it I hear all the time when people are calling to work with us, like Kiera, I just don't know what I don't know. And so today I just want to go through like, let's just talk about three things that I feel like every single business owner needs to know and some tactical ways that you can implement this. So hopefully it takes you from being stuck to unstuck. If you've heard this in the past, maybe you're hearing it at a different time. I know for me these are three fundamentals that I go back to no matter what phase of the business I'm in. No matter what size of practice I'm in, none of that. So number one is going to be your leadership is like completely the like growth of your business. And your business will never outgrow your leadership. And so your business is a reflection of you as the leader. I remember reading Jocko Willink's book about that extreme ownership. And it was like everything about your business is a reflection of you. And when so when I'm frustrated of the systems or the scalability or the lack of accountability, that's me. And so when we have that. I hate this, but I love this. Is where can we get consistency? Where can we stop the firefighting? Where can we like make sure that we've got stronger accountability? And where can we make sure that the doctor's not carrying everything? Because I think so many doctors are like, I'll just do it. I got this. Like, I I'm a hard worker. I know how to GSD. I know how to get through this. But I'm like, okay, we've got to figure out how like being a leader is not just a title. How do we create more clarity and how do we create more consistency? And how do we develop leaders and owners within our organization? And so for this, like when I look at our leadership and how for you not to get stuck in that, like being a great leader is being able to make hard decisions. Being a great leader is how do I create clarity and consistency for my team? Being a great leader is how do I make sure that my team understands the numbers and we use those numbers to guide our decisions. we were going through a whole list the other day of of topics of leadership. And I was like, gosh, I like leadership is It's a journey. It's an evolution. It's not something that you just do overnight. and I think about Kiera as a leader when I first started and she was erratic. I was like, I was turbulent. I had so many pieces. but leadership is maturity. it's how do I get people to buy into a vision? How do I rally them and how do I get them to buy into a vision? How am I to be a CEO versus a manager and really understanding the difference of those two hats? How do I have time management where I Truly focus on the most important things, not just because I'm capable of doing it, but because I'm the only one that can do it. How do I delegate and work through my team? How do I like learn people and work to their strengths and work to their superpowers? Working through my team, not just working with my team, using my team. How do I have the art of influence? How do I grow my team members into incredible people? How do I see that potential when I'm hiring? How do I hire better? How do I figure like leading, managing, and holding people accountable. How do I have consistency? How am I an example, but not the one who has to do everything? how do I value my team? Do I see them as an asset or a liability? How do I help my team feel valued without being the one who does it all? Like there's a there's a there's a great quote over here today that says I cannot give you the formula for success, but I can give you the formula for failure, which is try to please everybody. And that's by Herbert Swoop. And I thought about that as I was prepping for the podcast today of That's I think in leadership where I'm not trying to please everybody. I'm going to make decisions that upset people, but I'm always going to make decisions that are in the best interest of the business. how do I own my mindset and make sure that I'm showing up with that clear, sharp mind? How do I have like mental health and grit and make sure I'm having that? What about creating culture, getting a team of ownership, having like my office manager, doctor, duo and having that relationship? What about performance management of my team? So when I look at this and I think about this, like leadership, like you developing and growing as a leader. And I think that when I go back to this of like a lot of owners just think like I owned it, I got the title of a leader. But leadership is this evolution and this journey. It's becoming, it's evolving. It's all those pieces I listed off, and yet it's not a, it's not a checklist. Like, how do I learn to listen and not react? How do I learn to have my team come up with solutions rather than me? So I rattled off a lot and all those can hit people at different phases of business. And I believe that I can check one of those off and then I can move. And then my team will double in size or our business will double in size. And I might have to go back to the beginning and the basics again of like, all right, I gotta figure out again how to work through my team. we went from having where me and our team was doing it to where now we're bringing on the C suites and the leader I need to become to manage a C suite versus the leader I needed to be. Run when Tiff and I were just running the business together. The way I act and interact with my EA and personal assistant today versus when I first had one. It's an evolution. It's a leadership. It's an evolution of who you are. And so it's how do how do we become better at leadership? And I would say listen to podcasts, read books. some I I go back to fundamentals. I read the go giver constantly, I read traction a lot. It's so but boring. Like, sorry, Gino, it's very boring. read the book, How to Be a Great Boss, Crucial Conversations, Discipline Without Punishment. Those are just some great books, but also look at great leaders and what do they do. For me, I'm a big mimic and mirror. So I talk to people, I talk to dentists that have really great cultures. This is why I love our mastermind group. I bring the best of the best of the best together. And I know because we work with all of them and I know our dentists personally, I have a lot of my great core leaders that I know are just dynamite leaders. I have them share what do they do? How do they have it? How do they have performance reviews? How do they give cr like critical feedback? Some of the dentists early on in my career. I had them practice these conversations with me, like literally would have to send me voice memos. Practice your leadership skills. Use a consultant. Let's talk through how we're gonna have this conversation, how are we gonna talk to our team about this? But really I think like if I break it down to the nuts and bolts, it's how do I get a team to buy into a vision? How do I make sure that we hold accountability and ownership? And how do I make sure that I maintain consistency and clarity? I think if I boiled it down and that's a rift on my own side, like not prepped, those would be the pieces I'd boil down. And so how do you become a stronger leader in those areas? And again, there's just indecision is worse than a wrong decision. And so just making those decisions, being more confident in yourself. someone once said like 2.0 is sitting here, and I think about Kiera 2.0, like she wasn't born, she was created. Leaders are not born, they're created. You've got to like flex and strengthen that leadership skill because your practice can never outgrow your leadership. And if you want to get to the next level of growth, whether that's financially, whether that's profitability, you have to flex and become a different leader. If you've got pure chaos in your office, that's you. If you've got people who aren't falling through, that's you. And that doesn't mean you have to go fix it. I mean, that's you tolerating that. And that's the standards of your practice. Your business will always fall, not to what you say, but what you tolerate. And so being that leader that raises the standards, I this year I was annoyed. I was like, okay, we're going for outcomes over activity. I realized I was tracking activity, but that's not moving our company forward. We need to be tracking outcomes. Our team is flourishing. But me as a leader, I need to be looking down the line and seeing, and I need to be developing myself as well. I go to the gym, I put myself into a complete fitness competition where I wanted to get to my best physical, like PRs, physical fitness. I went through A cut. I've never done a cut before. I push myself physically, mentally, often because to me that's a a different pressure test that's gonna sh like allow me to show up better as a leader as well. So it doesn't even have to just be within your practice. Discipline at the gym, discipline in working out, discipline in how you show up, discipline in how you eat, those things are going to make you a far superior leader. I will tell you. Going through a cut where I had the least amount of calories, I was the strongest, most sharpest leader I've ever been. And I was exhausted. But I knew I needed to show up and I needed to be stronger and I needed to think better ways. So those are going to be some zones hopefully that will help you on leadership. The other one that I found that a lot of people miss is we talk about so often, but systems truly do create freedom, not restrictions. And I think people think that they need to have really strong and lots of systems. And even our team was doing this, but realistically. There's just a few core systems that need to be in place. There's not a lot of systems that actually need to be there, but they do need to be consistent. They do need to be scalable, and they do need to be followed through on. And so when we look at it, our team was going through and there's there's business fundamentals like core value, vision, mission, org chart, meeting cadences, figuring out our BAM, figuring out our projections, looking at our overhead. Like those are business fundamentals. And then there's systems. And we actually broke it down and we're like, gosh, if we just put into place like 10 core. Most things are going to get better. Most things are going to get fixed. Most things are going to get resolved. But they're not sexy. They're not fun. They're not things that I'm like, my gosh, like, let me get on a podcast and tell everybody, like, let's just fix these seven items. But that's all it really is. But I think that what happens is we want to continue to scale. We want to continue to build. For me, I want to reinvent, reinvent, reinvent, reinvent. But that's actually not something that's going to grow us. And so it's like, Just having KPIs that we track and monitor and we use those to make our decisions, having a solid morning huddle with an agenda, following set meeting cadences, having proper handoffs, having a proper scheduling protocol, having case acceptance protocols, having a collections protocol, working on new patients and referrals, having a period protocol, recare reactivation. Like those are really core items that if you have those systems where you follow them and we scale them and everybody's doing it the same way, 95% of your problems get fixed. Of course, there's other ones. There's hiring, there's onboarding, there's leadership, there's all these other ones. But I think so many people don't want to just be at the basics. We want to reinvent the will. We want to do these things, like have job descriptions at the end of days. Like just do it. It's boring. It's not fun. People are like, wow, wow. We have to have a a morning huddle prep sheet. Why do pilots have checklists? Like the checklist manifesto. They create freedom, they create predictability, and they create systemization. That's all you need to do. And I found that when offices follow it, when we have it in place. And for me, I also don't want systems to be something that people have to remember. How can I have it as a true system like Chick-fil-A where their burgers come out with three pickles every single time? How do I make sure that our schedule has the same system every single time? How do I make sure that our our handoffs have the same thing every single time? And I don't have to hope that 15 team members remember it. We're gonna put this in to where we have it consistent every single time, no matter who's doing it, no matter what new team member comes in. That is scalability with systemization. And so have it documented, have it simple, have it repeatable. That's gonna get duplicated. So I think for offices, systemization really that that's the core. That's the systems. It's not sexy, but it is very, very effective. And then the third things that I think a lot of people don't realize, including myself, is you have to know your numbers better than anyone else. That's better than your CPA, better than your financial advisor. You have to know, and that's not just production, that's profit. Like I remember someone said, production feeds the ego, profit feeds the family. And I think about this all the time. Like, you have to know your production. And I'm talking net, not gross, your collections, your overhead. Then within your overhead, like what is our payroll? What is our supplies? What's our marketing? What are our labs? What's our profitability? And then what's our billing and our AR? You know those numbers. You're solid. You can make so much stronger decisions. You don't, you have financial surprises, you make poor decisions, you're on reactive rather than proactive. You grow, but you don't have profit. Like, I can't tell you how many offices I've that are singing the five, six, seven, eight million and they have no money. And I'm like, golly, you're making so much money, but you don't know how to keep the money. You gotta make the money and you gotta keep the money. All right. Like that's what we gotta do. So you have to make sure that our profit is there and we can't be willy-nilly. To me, you guys know I talk about the MMs. I do money and meditation in the morning. So triple for you morning, meditation, money. Look at it every single day. Look at your P and L. If you don't know your overhead and your profit right now without looking, you gotta know it better. You have to. And that's a doctor and an OM. You must know this number. This number creates all the drive. Profit is the only number I actually care about. Like I can sit here, we can track all the KPIs, so many things, but if your profits down, everything else in your life is hard. Your profits up, most things in your life are really easy. Money solves a lot of problems. And so let's have profit. Let's have like I'm stressed out, I'm moving my hair around. Like I don't enjoy this. This stresses me out because you've got to know your numbers better than anyone else. You don't sit here and lie, if your CPA is not delivering to you by the second of the month, like the second week of the month, get a better CPA. Like they work for you. You have to know your numbers. You have to be confident in them. And if things fill off, challenge it, question it until it gets right. Don't just sit here haphazardly. That is not a strong business owner. This one fires me up more than anything because I used to not know my numbers. My husband was like, Kiera, I don't get it. Why are you broke? And like, I don't know. Well, I learned this great thing about AR. I had like a hundred grand sitting in AR that I didn't know about. We weren't collecting properly. You better believe I fixed that real fast to where I'm never gonna be in that situation again. And you layer by layer by layer, you get more and more and more financially savvy, but you have to know your numbers better than anyone else. You know your production numbers or so, I hope. If you don't know that number, but do you know your collections? Do you know your collection percentage? Do you know your overhead? Do you know your payroll percentage? Do you know your supply sip? If you don't, You must learn that. So I'll get off my rant. But this was funny. They said production is a vanity, profitability is a reality. And I think that that's a good anchor line of yes, it is. Profitability is your reality. So your numbers are gonna tell the truth whether you choose to look at them or not. The truth is always there. Some of us don't want to like get on the scale and say weigh. I had a great trainer tell me, she's like, Kiera, that number means nothing other than giving us data and information. It's not my Self-worth, it's nothing. Just like your profitability is just a number on a scale. It just gives us data. If we spend more money on payroll, this is the number that we get. We make better decisions if we know. But I will tell you, your success, your happiness, your stress is all tied to you knowing these numbers or not. And a lot of people are like, no, no, no, I don't want to. Yeah, right. You're sitting in stress constantly that you don't even realize. So know your numbers. Schedule a monthly financial review. Commit to knowing the story behind your numbers. Like, do money meditation with me every morning. Just have your bank account on there. Just look at it every morning. Look at your PL every day. I don't care. Do not sit in excuses on your money. You're a business owner, you've got to know this. So I hope that wasn't too much of a rant. But I hope it gave you some good tips on how to have leadership. some good money books. I love Profit First by Mike McAllicks. I also love Money Master the Game by Tony Robbins. That was a long book, but it taught me a lot. there's some great financial podcasts out there. there's also some really crummy ones. I The Psychology of Money was another great one that I read that was on financial. systems, the checklist manifesto is a great one. Come up for air is a great book. There's several great books based on where you're struggling. But if you notice, this is our yes success model. You as a leader, earnings and profitability, system structure and scale. That's what it is. And every single one of those will give you the yes success model. You've got to take care of them. You've got to do leadership. You've got to do profitability. You gotta do systems. The yes success model follows constantly. So what part are you the weakest in? What part are you the strongest in? And where do you need to grow? This is the zone like you're not a great practice is not built by accident. It's intentional, it's focused, it's consistent. I had another great trainer. She said, Kiera, it's not about perfection, it's about consistency. That's I don't care if last month you didn't look at your numbers. I do care if you consistently are not looking at the numbers. You aren't, I'm not expecting perfection, but we do have to have consistency. So how can you have more consistency? And if you're feeling overwhelmed, it doesn't mean you're failing. It just means that you've outgrown the current systems, you've outgrown where you're at, you've outgrown the knowledge. It's kind of like the Wi-Fi symbol. You're just popping up to the next level. And your next level of growth comes from working harder. Like it can, but it usually comes from knowing your business better, leading better, making better decisions with finances. So this is what we're obsessed with. I love to help you. I love our team to help you. I love you to be a part of our community. We talk about this every single month. We talk about this in person. Come be a part of it. Like for me, I'm not going to get a six-pack without a trainer overseeing me. You might not be able to grow your business without a trainer overseeing you, an advisor helping you, somebody getting you out of the rut, somebody helping you get to that next Wi-Fi symbol. So let's help you out. Reach out. Hello at the Hello@TheDentalATeam.com. You guys, this is your life, your practice. And I feel like these things are not known. I feel like they're kind of known. But knowing and executing are the difference between winning and losing. Are you just gonna know the facts or are you gonna actually execute on it? The challenge is there, the choice is there, and I hope that you choose to be somebody who executes. Reach out, let's get you out of the hole. Come on, let's do Hello@TheDentalATeam.com.

Southeast Baptist Podcast features the preaching and teaching of Pastor John Ray, the senior pastor of Southeast Baptist Tabernacle in Indianapolis, IN. His preaching is biblical, conversational, and encouraging as you pursue a Christlike walk.
When you feel weak, forgotten, or ready to quit, Jesus does not measure your life by its headlines. He calls you to hold fast, trust His authority, and stay faithful.In this message, you'll explore Jesus' encouragement to a church that had little worldly strength but refused to abandon its faith. The message confronts our instinct to force doors open, control outcomes, and measure success by influence, while pointing us back to dependence on Christ. Jesus is the One who opens doors, strengthens the weak, and gives His people an identity that cannot be shaken.Whether you're discouraged in your marriage, parenting, work, ministry, or calling, this message speaks to the part of you wondering whether you can keep going. If prayer feels unanswered or life feels unstable, discover how faithfulness in your current assignment can become an act of trust.In this message you'll discover:— Why Jesus' authority matters when you are trying to force doors open.— How God works through dependence and weakness rather than self-sufficiency.— Why your neighborhood, workplace, family, and current season are not accidents but assignments.— How to stop fighting every critic, hold fast to Jesus, and keep going when quitting feels easier.Key Scriptures: Revelation 3:7–13, Isaiah 22:22, John 10:9, Matthew 5:3, Galatians 6:9, Romans 12:19, Psalm 59:16
It's a beautiful prayer that we read every single week at Celebrate Recovery. This prayer, written by Reinhold Niebuhr, is more than just a rote group of words that we recite for convenience to close out our CR services and small groups. No, these are deeper words with a great meaning to help us in our day-to-day recovery interactions. In this episode, Rodney Holmstrom, Global Field Director of Celebrate Recovery, recites the prayer and gives some thoughts around the meaning for some central phrases in this important prayer.
In this message, Matt explores the conclusion of Romans 11, where Paul stops trying to explain every mystery and simply stands in awe of God’s wisdom and mercy. After three chapters of wrestling with difficult questions about faith, rejection, and God’s purposes, Paul realizes that God’s plan is far bigger than anyone expected—and that every person in the story needs mercy. This message speaks to anyone carrying unanswered questions, wondering what God is doing, or struggling to trust when life doesn’t unfold the way they hoped. It’s an invitation to see that faith isn’t the absence of questions, but learning to trust the character of God even when some questions remain.
