Episode Overview In this episode of Thriving Practice, I speak with Sarah Clark, founder of Sarah Clark Consulting, who helps medical, dental, and chiropractic practices transform operational chaos into sustainable calm. Sarah's approach combines fractional practice administration with process improvement strategies that allow providers to focus on patient care rather than administrative burdens. We explore how small, intentional changes in technology and workflow can dramatically improve both the patient experience and staff satisfaction. Sarah shares concrete examples of how simple solutions like automated appointment reminders have freed up staff time and improved patient punctuality by 30% in one practice. Her compassionate, results-driven methodology emphasizes that providers don't need to make sweeping changes all at once – even incremental improvements can lead to significant positive outcomes for practice efficiency and provider wellbeing. Featured Quotes "What I do is I help private medical, dental, chiropractor, anything in that field...turn their chaos into calm. And I sort of make a joke of, well, not all the way calm, more like calm-er. Because if it's really quiet and it's really calm, that's probably also like it's never really gonna happen that way." "Burnout is not just taking care of the patients and dealing with that burden that gets put onto their shoulders, but having to run an office when a physician did not go to business school becomes really difficult...It's overwhelming. That's a full-time job." "There are ways that you can do that and take some of the manual part of the stuff that leads up to that diagnosis...once the clients, once the business owners understand that it's okay to elevate something else off of you, to give it to somebody that has the experience and the time and the understanding to do it, it is, I mean, I have two clients that will just send me a text message about whatever it is and they used to say just handle it, now that just handle it is understood." What You'll Learn Listen for these key insights: How the "Four P's" framework (People, Paperwork, Processes, and Patients) can transform your practice Why technology adoption doesn't have to be overwhelming—and how small changes like automated appointment reminders can have outsized impacts The surprising connection between provider burnout and patient experience How fractional practice administration can provide expert support for practices that can't justify a full-time administrator The critical importance of developing a strategic plan for your practice, including your eventual exit strategy Why compassion isn't just good medicine—it's good business (with scientific evidence to back it up!)

We're digging into how to believe that your body wants to procreate when you have low AMH. Dealing with a low AMH may have you on a rollercoaster of emotions. From hope and excitement one minute to devastation the next. The fertility journey can impact every aspect of your life. If someone hasn't been through it, they may not understand why you feel triggered by certain people, events, or places. It's not about catastrophizing every time your period comes (or is absent or late); it's about leading with your intuition and/or leaning in on your faith so you can feel a sense of peace. Plus, you can dig deeper to see what your doctor is missing. So, how do we visualize a path forward on our own terms as we enter 2025 (and have a successful pregnancy)? This episode is for you if: - You've been told you have low AMH, and your REI has said IVF or donor eggs are the only options - AMH is very triggering and has you catastrophizing - You know there is something missing with your health, and you're ready to make changes   In this episode, you'll learn: 1) Why focusing on AMH wastes time and what to do instead 2) How to open up space for your baby now and put joy back on the table 3) How to differentiate between your logical thoughts and emotions from the heart (and why breathing into your heart can reduce stress and promote DHEA) 4) How to look beyond the AMH number to determine precisely which biomarkers can shift the needle and improve pregnancy success (i.e., thyroid, glucose, iron, vitamin D). Normal levels are very different than optimal.   --- RESOURCES: Fab Fertile Method https://www.fabfertile.com/what-we-do/   Ultimate Guide to Getting Pregnant This Year If You Have Low AMH/High FSH - https://fabfertile.clickfunnels.com/optinvbzjfsii   --- I just put together a new guide, “Reconnecting With Your Fertility: Preparing Your Body With Diet” that I'm going to give you pro bono (aka, free

We're digging into how to improve pregnancy success in 2025 when you have low AMH and/or high FSH. Focusing on the AMH biomarker wastes time. After all, it's used to see how well you'll do with IVF. It doesn't predict your ability to get pregnant naturally, measure egg quality, or check your uterine receptivity. The bottom line is that it's extremely triggering and scares women into rushing to IVF or thinking donor eggs are the only option. We've helped couples with an AMH of 0.02 ng/mL at the age of 44 get pregnant naturally after they were told donor eggs were the only next step. So, what are the next steps for low AMH, and how can we get pregnant in 2025?   In this episode, you'll learn: 1) Why AMH is not useful to determine why you are struggling to conceive 2) The final word on HRT and what you need to consider (especially if you're dealing with certain symptoms) 3) Cutting-edge functional lab testing that can get to the bottom of why it's not working 4) The final word on PRP (platelet-rich plasma) ovarian rejuvenation and when/if to start this 5) How to improve egg quality and get pregnant with low AMH and/or high FSH --- RESOURCES: Fab Fertile Method https://www.fabfertile.com/what-we-do/   Ultimate Guide to Getting Pregnant This Year If You Have Low AMH/High FSH - https://fabfertile.clickfunnels.com/optinvbzjfsii   --- I just put together a new guide, “Reconnecting With Your Fertility: Preparing Your Body With Diet” that I'm going to give you pro bono (aka, free

We're digging into how to address erectile dysfunction during the fertility journey. Erectile dysfunction (ED) impacts over 30 million men in the United States. Beyond the impact on intimacy, it also is a barometer of a man's overall health. It's not a normal part of aging but rather a sign to dig deeper to address underlying health issues. When you're on the fertility journey, ED can reduce the frequency of sex, often making it difficult to coincide with the fertile window. And while medications such as Viagra can help manage the symptoms of ED, it does not address why it's happening in the first place. While ED doesn't necessarily mean there's a problem with sperm health, the health of the male partner is essential when you are TTC (it's not just about focusing on egg health). So, how do we address ED naturally and improve the chances of pregnancy success? I'm excited to welcome Dr. Anne Truong to the podcast. Dr Anne has 25+ years of experience in anti-aging and cellular medicine. She is an expert in intimate health and a leader in biologic regenerative medicine. In this episode, you'll learn about: 1) Mistakes that can make ED worse 2) Reasons for low libido and the role of gut health 3) Testing to consider (i.e. cardiovascular, adrenals, hormones) 4) Supplement and diet/lifestyle recommendations   --- RESOURCES: Fab Fertile Method https://www.fabfertile.com/what-we-do/   Ultimate Guide to Getting Pregnant This Year If You Have Low AMH/High FSH - https://fabfertile.clickfunnels.com/optinvbzjfsii   --- I just put together a new guide, “Reconnecting With Your Fertility: Preparing Your Body With Diet” that I'm going to give you pro bono (aka, free

We're digging into how to get pregnant with an autoimmune disease. A theme we see with low AMH, high FSH, diminished ovarian reserve, or premature ovarian insufficiency is autoimmune disease (i.e., Hashimoto's Thyroiditis, Celiac, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Multiple Sclerosis, Lupus, Psoriasis, Type 1 Diabetes, Chron's, Pernicious Anemia, and way more). There are over 80 different autoimmune diseases, with the prevalence increasing more than 3-12% per year. In the United States, Type 1 Diabetes has doubled in the last 40 years, celiac disease has increased fivefold in the last 30 years, and multiple sclerosis has increased by 30% since 2013. In 1/5 of premature ovarian insufficiency cases, there is an autoimmune disease present, which is often overlooked as a factor with conventional medicine. It's not about taking more medication to manage the autoimmune disease and pushing your body to conceive with IVF. This can lead to cancelled cycles, poor response to medication, abnormally tested embryos, and implantation failure. So, how do we prevent and reverse autoimmune disease so that you can get pregnant in 2025?   In this episode, you'll learn: 1) Conventional versus functional medicine approach to treating autoimmune disease 2) Factors that influence autoimmune diseases and what you can do to reverse autoimmune disease  3) Biomarkers to ask your doctor to check that help address underlying factors  4) Diet, lifestyle, and supplement recommendations to address autoimmunity and get pregnant in 2025   --- RESOURCES: Fab Fertile Method https://www.fabfertile.com/what-we-do/   Ultimate Guide to Getting Pregnant This Year If You Have Low AMH/High FSH - https://fabfertile.clickfunnels.com/optinvbzjfsii   Get your free copy of our Autumn Fertility Recipe Guide (includes 5-day meal plan/grocery shopping list, all free from the TOP allergens) at https://www.fertilitydietfreebie.com/.   --- I just put together a new guide, “Reconnecting With Your Fertility: Preparing Your Body With Diet” that I'm going to give you pro bono (aka, free

The pressure of the season may have you feeling overwhelmed or burnt out. Visiting friends and family and seeing coworkers who ask that intrusive and annoying question, “Do you have kids yet?” So many of us have been on the TTC journey for years.

We're digging into how the immune system impacts fertility. To get pregnant and have a healthy pregnancy, we need a robust immune system. Pushing your body with hormones and medications is not the answer. This can lead to cancelled cycles, poor response to medications, abnormally tested embryos or pregnancy loss. Remember, the majority of us can get pregnant naturally. So, how do we boost our immune system and improve the chances of pregnancy success? Today I'm welcoming Dr. Sarah Wilson, ND, to the podcast.

We're digging into why panic attacks matter when TTC. One in ten adults have a panic attack each year, and they usually begin between 15-25. Anyone who has experienced a panic attack may feel like they're losing control or even dying. So, what do panic attacks have to do with your reproductive health? Panic attacks can be caused by nutrient deficiencies, mineral deficiencies, poor gut microbiome, hormone imbalance, caffeine intolerance and trauma. We regularly see anxiety, depression and panic attacks lessen or even be eliminated when addressing our health in a targeted manner. Let's discuss some steps you can take right now to stop panic attacks so you can focus on your health and improve pregnancy success. I'm excited to welcome Dr. Sandra Scheinbaum to the podcast. Dr. Scheinbaum is CEO of the Functional Medicine Coaching Academy, a collaboration with The Institute for Functional Medicine and a leader in the field of health coaching education.

Guests:  Luke Nikas, partner in Quinn Emanuel's New York office and Quinn Emanuel associates Sarah Clark, Jennifer Stern, and Stephanie KelmanJohn is joined by four members of the trial team that obtained a dismissal of all charges in the recent New Mexico manslaughter case against Alec Baldwin.  Mr. Baldwin was charged by the State of New Mexico with involuntary manslaughter following the death of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins on the set of the film Rust when a prop gun Mr. Baldwin was holding accidentally discharged.  They discuss the events of the tragic accident and the initial investigation by the District Attorney's office, which did not suggest any intent to charge Mr. Baldwin with a crime until about ten minutes before the press release announcing the manslaughter charges.  They also discuss the resignation and replacement of the first Special Prosecutor, the FBI's destruction of the gun while testing it and the prosecution's subsequent dismissal of charges without prejudice, only to suddenly refile the charges later.  Luke describes the team's pretrial motions to dismiss based upon the destruction of the gun, the withholding of evidence from the defense, and improper conduct by the prosecution before the grand jury.  On the question of why there was live ammunition on a movie set, a critical breakthrough came during trial when witnesses testified that a former law enforcement officer had informed the prosecution that he had stored live ammunition for the film's prop supplier. The testimony revealed that these live rounds were potentially mixed in with dummy rounds used to train actors on other movie sets, offering a plausible alternative explanation for the live bullets found on the Rust set.  The prosecution withheld this information from the defense before trial even though it cast doubt on the prosecution's theory that the film's young armorer was responsible for introducing live rounds to the set.  The judge, after learning that the concealed bullets matched the type used in the fatal shooting, ruled that the prosecution had failed to disclose critical evidence and dismissed the charges mid-trial due to prosecutorial misconduct. Podcast Link: Law-disrupted.fmHost: John B.

We're digging into how to balance blood sugar when you are TTC. If your blood sugar is on a roller coaster every day, this can impact the menstrual cycle, disrupt ovulation, and negatively affect implantation. I know you may have been told that your blood sugar is normal. But is it optimal? Optimal biomarkers are needed for preconception health. You may be experiencing mood swings, poor sleep, sugar cravings, or you may feel hangry. This could be a sign that your blood sugar is imbalanced. So, how do we balance our blood sugar and get pregnant this year?   In this episode, you'll learn: 1)What insulin resistance is, and why it matters when we are trying to conceive 2) How and when to test blood sugar 3) What it means for our fertility when we experience sugar cravings, mood swings, poor sleep, and that "hangry" feeling 4) How stress and sleep impact blood sugar 5) What high and low blood sugar means for fertility and health 6) How to balance blood sugar and the best diet to regulate your blood sugar   --- RESOURCES: Fab Fertile Method https://www.fabfertile.com/what-we-do/   Ultimate Guide to Getting Pregnant This Year If You Have Low AMH/High FSH - https://fabfertile.clickfunnels.com/optinvbzjfsii   --- I just put together a new guide, “Reconnecting With Your Fertility: Preparing Your Body With Diet” that I'm going to give you pro bono (aka, free

We're digging into hormone replacement therapy and when/if you need to use it during the fertility journey. We get so many questions about hormone replacement therapy. Especially if you're dealing with low AMH and/or high FSH. You may be experiencing hot flashes, night sweats, insomnia, low libido, painful sex or mood swings. So, how do we know when to use hormone replacement therapy (HRT)? What is the difference between synthetic and bioidentical hormones? Plus, could topical hormone therapy be an option? Today, we're breaking down what you need to know about HRT and fertility. I'm excited to welcome Carol Petersen to the podcast. Carol is an accomplished compounding pharmacist with decades of experience helping patients improve their quality of life through bio-identical hormone replacement therapy. In this episode, you'll learn about: 1) The difference between synthetic and bioidentical hormones 2) When to use hormones and how this can impact preconception health 3) The impact of progesterone on fertility and health 4) The controversy over hormone replacement therapy and potential health risks   Carol Petersen offers a FREE minute consult: https://thewellnessbydesignproject.com/free-15-minute-consultation/   --- RESOURCES: Fab Fertile Method https://www.fabfertile.com/what-we-do/   Ultimate Guide to Getting Pregnant This Year If You Have Low AMH/High FSH - https://fabfertile.clickfunnels.com/optinvbzjfsii   --- I just put together a new guide “Reconnecting With Your Fertility: Preparing Your Body With Diet” that I'm going to give you pro bono (aka, free

In the second half of the first hour of "Connections with Evan Dawson" on Oct. 7, 2024, we talk with Sarah Clark, candidate for NYS Assembly, about her priorities for District 136, if re-elected.

We're digging into how to boost estrogen levels naturally to improve pregnancy success. Many of us are struggling with symptoms such as hot flashes, night sweats, low libido, and irregular or absent periods. Your doctor may have told you to rush to IVF or that donor eggs were your only hope. Maybe they told you to get on hormone replacement therapy (HRT) right away to protect your heart and your bones. But why is your estrogen low, and how do you boost it naturally? Let's figure out the factors that influence estrogen and the steps you can take right now to improve pregnancy success.   In this episode, you'll learn: 1) The most common signs of low estrogen and why going on HRT is a band-aid approach and doesn't uncover the reason it's low in the first place 2) The factors that influence estrogen (i.e. thyroid, gut microbiome, adrenals, mineral deficiencies) 3) Specific steps to take right now to balance hormones and improve estrogen levels   --- RESOURCES: Fab Fertile Method https://www.fabfertile.com/what-we-do/   Ultimate Guide to Getting Pregnant This Year If You Have Low AMH/High FSH - https://fabfertile.clickfunnels.com/optinvbzjfsii   --- I just put together a new guide, “Reconnecting With Your Fertility: Preparing Your Body With Diet” that I'm going to give you pro bono (aka, free

We're digging into lipid replacement therapy while TTC. You may have heard of intralipid therapy. Many fertility clinics are offering this service to improve pregnancy outcomes (especially for recurrent pregnancy loss or elevated natural killer cells). Intralipids are synthetic and made from soybean, egg yolk, glycerine and water. Possible side effects are headache, dizziness, nausea, sweating, or vomiting may occur. Is there a better way to boost the immune system naturally and support our mitochondrial health? Our bodies weren't meant to handle all the high toxin exposure, and this may be impacting your ability to get pregnant and carry a baby to term. Lipid replacement therapy may be an option to consider. I'm excited to welcome Dr. Carolyn Messere to the podcast. Dr. Carolyn is a seasoned Functional Medicine MD with a decade of expertise dedicated to empowering individuals battling fatigue, anxiety, and hormone imbalances.   In this episode, you'll learn: 1) What is lipid replacement therapy, and how can it help when you are TTC 2) The difference between synthetic intralipid therapy being offered at the fertility clinic and lipid replacement therapy 3) How lipid replacement therapy can help with Lyme disease, EBV, autoimmune conditions, chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia and mitochondrial dysfunction   Get your free guide to lipid replacement therapy - https://www.drmessere.com/free-gift   --- RESOURCES: Fab Fertile Method https://www.fabfertile.com/what-we-do/   Ultimate Guide to Getting Pregnant This Year If You Have Low AMH/High FSH - https://fabfertile.clickfunnels.com/optinvbzjfsii   --- I just put together a new guide “Reconnecting With Your Fertility: Preparing Your Body With Diet” that I'm going to give you pro bono (aka, free

We're digging into reproductive immunology and why this can help pregnancy outcomes. Reproductive immunology is a hot topic in the fertility space. There are some cutting-edge therapies that can help address diminished ovarian reserve, repeat miscarriage, elevated NK cells, positive antinuclear antibodies (ANA), secondary infertility and unexplained infertility. I've hosted the Get Pregnant Naturally podcast for over 6.5 years, and I know that when we work on our health, we can reverse infertility. In all those episodes, I have not interviewed anyone from the conventional fertility industry. We are not anti-IVF, but I believe strongly that the first step for anyone on the fertility journey must include a targeted assessment and action plan to improve our health. Skipping this part is what leads many to experience poor outcomes with assisted reproductive technology. I wanted to bring this episode to you to discuss some therapies to consider after you've conducted functional testing, optimized your biomarkers and implemented a targeted plan to address the underlying reasons for your fertility diagnosis. Today, I'm excited to welcome Dr. Marco Mouanness to the podcast. Dr. Marco is a published author and expert on several fertility topics, such as ovarian rejuvenation, PCOS, endometriosis, recurrent implantation failure, and the impact of COVID-19 on fertility and pregnancy. In this episode, you'll learn about: 1) Factors that indicate the need for immune testing (i.e. NK cells, ANA, recurrent miscarriage, low egg count and more) 2) Cutting-edge therapies such as uterine PRP (platelet-rich plasma therapy), vaginal ozone therapy and lipid infusion 3) If and when to use these therapies and how to know if they are right for you when you are TTC   --- RESOURCES: Fab Fertile Method https://www.fabfertile.com/what-we-do/   Connect with Dr. Marco at https://www.rejuvenatingfertility.com/   Ultimate Guide to Getting Pregnant This Year If You Have Low AMH/High FSH - https://fabfertile.clickfunnels.com/optinvbzjfsii   --- I just put together a new guide, “Reconnecting With Your Fertility: Preparing Your Body With Diet” that I'm going to give you pro bono (aka, free
