Kiera is here with a gift to make your practice even better: The three most common mistakes dental practices make, and guidance on how to get out of them. Is your practice making one of these mistakes? Delegating tasks without ownership Avoiding hard conversations Flying blind on your numbers Episode resources: Subscribe to The Dental A-Team podcast Schedule a Practice Assessment Leave us a review Transcript: The Dental A Team (00:00) Hello, Dental A Team listeners, this is Kiera and today is one of my favorite topics of all time. It's how to avoid the pitfalls because I feel like these are costly mistakes that dental practice owners make. We make these costly pitfalls. We go into them. We don't know about them. And you guys, if you know me, I have a mantra and I say, don't lose money. I hate losing money. It's one of my biggest pet peeves and I don't want you to lose money. So I'm excited to talk about it. I hope you guys are excited because...   The reality is like so many people talk about like, success leaves clues and it does, but so does failure. And I I talk about this a lot when I present and when I speak and I say like success and failure are truly not radically different. They're not, they're like small little things. It's like successful practices are consistent. Successful practices put systems in, successful practices look at their KPIs, successful practices have team meetings that are effective. Successful practices have CEO time.   Successful practices have delegation and ownership. Successful practices ⁓ follow through. They look at their case acceptance. They make their re-care calls. They do their reactivation. They do different verbiage. Like that's what they do. Failure practices don't stay consistent. They always have an excuse. They're always blaming. ⁓ They don't check their case acceptance. They don't track their KPIs. They don't look at their numbers. They don't take CEO time. Like these are just little steps. And like with my fingers, if you're just listening, I'm like,   almost like scallops, like if we've got a middle point, success is I checked my KPIs, failure is I didn't check my KPIs. And while that's not like a huge move, it is moving you points away to where you end up either closer to success or closer to failure. And so I think when we realize this, these are the ones, like, how can I help you guys avoid these costs and mistakes? How can I like motivate and inspire you and like, not just motivate, but genuinely change you?   So that way it's not this I like, well, shoot, we're on failure row. Shoot, like, I don't really know about this. Like, I just want to talk about three of the most common mistakes that people make and how do you correct course because you're going to make mistakes. But like if I'm doing the scallops again, successful offices realize like we didn't do the KPIs. So we're going to start doing the KPIs and we don't miss those. We're going to hold the meetings and we don't miss those.   they course correct before they end up in the failure or the success bucket. They're course correcting constantly. And so this is just like where I'm at coaching hundreds and thousands of offices, team members galore, our team, like literally, I feel so blessed that we get to serve so many offices. I just saw like this really awesome highlight reel of all these doctors that came in person and I was watching it with Jason and I look over and Jason's just the sweetest thing. He's tearing up and he said, Kiera.   I knew when you started Dental A Team, it was going to be like, he's like, I never imagined it being what it is today. He said, but all those people's lives, including all of you listening to the podcasts, all of those lives that we've been able to change because of Dental A Team Gosh, that is just such a blessing. It's such a beautiful thing. And I just want to say thank you. Like, thank you for being here. Thank you for being a part of the offices. Thank you for being a part of my Dental A Team podcast family. Thank you for just showing up. Thank you for changing lives through dentistry. Thank you for giving people a gift of confidence. Like,   And for me to be able to give you a gift to make your practice even better, that's what I'm here for. That's what Dental A Team's about. So like we're here to help you recognize patterns. We're here to help you avoid burnout. We're here to help you make small changes before they become giant snowballs. And I think like my thought process has always been I'm here to positively impact the world of dentistry in the greatest way possible. We're here to share this podcast message with every single office out there. We're here to help offices realize like running a successful practice.   does not have to be hard. It can actually be easy. And let's give you the tools, the tips, the resources, all of that to make your life a grand success. So if that sounds great to you, we'll rock on. So step number one, mistake number one that's very costly is delegating tasks without ownership. So like so many offices, hear them like, Kiera, I listened to the podcast and we implemented it, but like it just didn't work out. And I'm like, yeah, cause you delegated it and you didn't have the structure, didn't have the ownership, you didn't have the accountability, you didn't have the metrics. Like, okay.   One of the doctors called this doctor out and they said, this doctor is a walking cheat, like cheat code. Go talk to him, go ask him what he does because he's been able to take his practice for massive success, which is true. When I met them, were doing about 1.5. Now we're clearing five. We're going to be crushing six to seven. And I just like, gosh, the giddiness in me for this office. Like they deserve the sun, the moon, the stars. Like you name it.   They're just such good humans. And so when I think about this, like we're talking, this is a practice that went from like 1.5, 2 million up to this six, $7 million practice now, something I've noticed. And like I said, this doctor is a walking cheat code. They, when we go in and we're like, okay, we're going to roll out this new process. So we're going to do a new process on how we do case acceptance, or we're going do new process on how we do cancellations. They don't just go to the team and be like, all right guys, we're going to do cancellations. They are like, we're going to build an SOP.   we're gonna have a team training, we're gonna have a metric, we're gonna do it for these four weeks. And they don't take a long time to execute on that. So it's like, perfect, we're gonna have this done in the next three weeks. But they execute, it's rolled out, it's like, it's very, very thorough. And this is a practice of a very large team and they all do it consistently. And when something gets off, they just go right back to the SOP, they update the SOP, where was it missed? What do we need to do? Let's do a team training on it. But I will say I've coached hundreds of offices and this is one office that I watch   constantly that is able to delegate, have ownership and be able to have a full team move and stay hyper accountable. So this is just like, you've got to have ownership. You've got to have SOPs. You've got to roll it out to the team, make sure everybody's aware. And then we've got to have the metrics and the check-ins to make sure something's not off. And if it is off, we follow through on it. So people know that when we roll out new processes, they're here to stick. They're not just like a flash in the pan of like, I heard it on a podcast. Let's try it out.   No, it's very, very, very thorough. So a quick check for you is like, go back and look at the last three things that you delegated. Did you assign them? Did you own them? And did you have follow up on it?   crickets. Yeah, yeah, because you did it. Darn it. But you're going to do it in the future. Or maybe you did. And I'm high fiving you. But most of the time, people don't. And this is so costly because then you can't ever be free. You think you're moving. You're taking one step forward, but you're actually taking like 500 steps backwards because nothing's actually getting delegated. Nothing's actually moving forward. And you're only relying on your A plus star players that are building all these ownership accountability pieces. And people are like, but I want everybody to be that way. And I'm like, human nature is not. Tell me how you're doing on your New Year's.   resolutions, probably not great because human nature by default doesn't stay accountable. Why do think I'm in business? because people, they know what they need to do. People are like, Kiera, I pay you to tell me like what to do that you do on the podcast. And it's like, yeah, because human nature is not follow through. Why do I pay a gym trainer? I've got all the resources, I got all the tools. I need somebody to literally hold me accountable to make me show up to work out. So look at the last three tasks. Did you delegate them? Was their ownership?   Did you follow up on them? Did they have a metric? If not, it up, fix that and start to delegate with ownership and accountability. So mistake number two, are you guys ready for this? It's avoiding hard conversations. ⁓ man, that's a crowd drop off. This is so real though, because we don't have like Patrick Lanziani has the five dysfunctions of a team. And if you and your team have not read this, I highly recommend it's a very easy fable. Have it as like some like,   evening reading. It's so fast, it's so easy and it's very, very great. And I think it's a reread. So if you've listened to it in the past or you read it, maybe do a reread. ⁓ But when we don't have trust and vulnerability and then we don't have healthy debate, AKA hard conversations, what happens is like little small issues become cracks and cracks aren't bad. But if cracks stay there, they actually break and then it becomes toxic and then it arose the entire team. So in leadership, we've got to have, let's like,   I coached his office. guys might know him. He's incredible. ⁓ They've got a lot of offices. think I did seven office visits ⁓ in three days. We were hauling booty. And I love this doctor because he pays for me to come in to coach his teams, to teach them how to have uncomfortable conversations, to remind them like this is why we're here. And the more we have just a few of these and we get away from the fear of discomfort.   and wanting to keep the peace, which is actually artificial harmony, we like care, we align and we move forward. And we use the sports analogy on this of, can you just imagine like pick your favorite sports team, basketball, baseball, soccer, I don't care what it is. Can you imagine for one second, like we'll just use basketball for instance, or football. Like if the quarterback or the point guard goes in, like let's do football, because they get thrashed. Like if that quarterback gets thrashed because his defensive line is not protecting for him.   or no one's open because they didn't follow the play, can you just imagine if that quarterback runs off the field and is like, hey coach, could you tell the defensive line to cover for me next time? Like absolutely not. Or if that quarterback is just like, I'm just so angry with my defensive line. Like they didn't block for me. Like, no, can you imagine? Like, no, they call it out. Like you got a freaking block for me. Like we need to win this game. I need this to happen. And they do it in real time because everybody on the team,   is committed to winning and they call each other in real time of their blind spots. Like my brother said, I'll play basketball. I played tennis. You got to call it in the moment. Like my dad is like, you got to call it in real time. You got to say, Hey, I need you to block. I need you to box out for me. I need you to like throw the ball. Like I'm here. Like I need you guys to get open, whatever it is. But like, if we can get a little bit better, that that's our culture rather than a, we sit here pretending to be perfect, but ultimately hating each other.   and hate's probably a strong word, but creating gaps. And so what I encourage is we normalize uncomfortable conversations. We normalize and encourage it. We push on peer to peer accountability. We have each other instead of it being up to the coach, AKA office manager or doctor, to each other, peer to peer, to where we talk about it. We wanna get the W, we wanna win. And so helping your team realize that this is going to be the best way for us to win is to have these hard conversations.   And it's not, I say it's not confrontation. It's just a conversation. Like let's take that hard out of there, but let's say what needs to happen. And so I would say, doctors, one of the worst things you can do to your great players is to tolerate the poor performance of a lower player. ⁓ Because they're watching you. They're watching to see standards are not what you say. They're what you tolerate. And so when you're A plus players are watching, like, well, doctor is going to do this constantly or doctors are not going to care about that. Now team members, can rise up and you can take care of things too.   Doctors, we've also got to make sure that we're encouraging and we're having the hard conversations too. I don't think you know how much I do not enjoy hard conversations, but I know as a leader, as a boss, as a CEO, as a consultant, I have got to have the hard conversations and I'm going to keep having them. They're not easy, but they are my responsibility and I'm going to show up as a good team member because actually that's better than living in artificial harmony. It's so much better. So there's a great quote.   If you want it, your success and happiness, that's my add on your success and happiness are directly proportional to the number of uncomfortable conversations you're willing to have. So if you want to grow, if you want to rise, how many of you look at your KPIs or your numbers like, gosh, freaking schedule is not full. Like, oh, like our profitability, like, but I go to my team meetings and I'm like, great job guys, you're doing great. Why don't we call it out? Hey, profitability is not where it needs to be.   What are our solutions to get it to where it needs to be? I'm not being a jerk. I'm not sitting here sizzling. Hey, our schedule is not up to goal. What are we doing to get that fixed? Let's have a conversation. Let's fix it. Let's normalize that. That's calling out in real time. Hey, our schedule is not to goal. Like what's our solution? How are we going to get there? It's like it's a huddle. It's a genuine huddle. Think about sports players. Like they get together. Like you need to block. I need you to call that person. I need you to do this. You guys need to call that all the hygienists. If you've got downtime, call seven patients, whatever it is. That's how we get the W.   something rude, let's normalize that we are a team. We call each other out. We celebrate when we win. Also like on the flip, like let's go to basketball, let's go to football. When they score a touchdown, the whole team that was just calling each other out of like, I need you to block, I need you to do this. They also go to the end zone and they freaking celebrate. They lift each other up, they're high-fiving. It's both. So let's make sure that we're calling each other out and normalizing that. And we're also celebrating and normalizing that as well. So this is something of, I would just encourage you to have   one honest conversation, and also I'd recommend in your next team meeting, let's have this if that's a standard, put it up in the break room. We normalize hard conversations. We encourage hard conversations. We are a company that does not sit in artificial harmony. Whatever it is, plaster that, build that into your culture. This is something you've got to like, if you guys could see, I'm like boxing out, like I'm pushing the defense. Like you've got to push this through all the way for you guys to get this to be that and to avoid that costly mistake.   All right, mistake number three. This one should come as a no brainer. You guys know I love numbers and numbers love me. It's flying blind on your numbers. So I think that production feeds the ego, profit feeds the family. So when I look at this, so many doctors are like, well, Kiera, I know you say that the numbers are there, but I don't have any money. And I'm like, yes, but making haphazard, crazy decisions because you're not looking at your numbers and you're not using them as a roadmap, you're just   flying by the seat your pants. And so when you look at this, you've got to know like, here's just a, guess, I guess to help you see like, am I flying blind on my numbers or do I maybe know my numbers? Question number one, what's your breakeven number? Now that's twofold. What's the breakeven number on the practice and what's the breakeven number paying you? Two questions, okay? My question is, what is your overhead on your supplies? What percent, what is your current overhead?   What is your debt services taken out of your overhead? What is your EBITDA? What is your net profit? AKA cashflow. Of that profit, are you saving your taxes? Hmm, something to think about. Fascinating, right? That's how you know. And if you can't answer those questions right now.   I know you're probably flying a little blind. Maybe you even just have like a eye patch on. That's okay. Maybe you're only half blind, not all the way blind. Or maybe you're like, Kiera, I'm walking in the dark. I don't even know any of that. don't even know where to find the PNL. It's fine. Wherever you are, you've got to get this dialed. Like I am a sticky broken record. haven't talked to her. Oh man, I'm so excited. She's going to get on podcast with me. And last year we were chatting and she was like, Kiera, like we were debating. Is she going to join consulting? Is she not going to join consulting? And she's like,   I have got to get profitable. And I said, all right, rock on, challenge accepted. We are going to get you profitable. I have been a broken record with this poor doctor for an entire year. It's production, profit, production, profit, production, profit, production, profit. Head down, produce, make sure your team's collecting and make sure we're profitable. That is what we've done all year long. And guess what? Come the end of the year, she's like, Kiera, I have so much money, I got to pay taxes on it. Like we did it.   and she did it in 11 months. So production, profit, production, profit. If you're producing, but you're not collecting and you're not looking at your numbers, you're not going to be profitable. If you're not planning for taxes and you're not saving for taxes, you're not gonna be profitable. If you don't know what your breakeven is on the practice and then what the breakeven is and what it needs to produce with you in there, you can't project this out and you can't forecast it and we can't figure out what your daily goal needs to be. And then you're just producing for the sake of producing for your ego.   Who was that a rank? Could you tell us there? If you like that email me Hello@TheDentalATeam.com. I might rap it. You guys, I used to have a rapper name Skittlez with a Z so I could wrap with Eminem. Tell Eminem I'd love to wrap with him. I've never gotten that far, but you know, Skittlez, Skittlez and Eminem. I don't know why I just told you that. Email me Hello@TheDentalATeam.com. If you think I should be Skittlez and rap it out. I'd love to hear from you. I genuinely love a good pen pal. So write me. But you've got to know your numbers. You have to.   non-negotiable. And this is, think, where accountability as a coach comes into play. I force our clients with our consultants to know their numbers. We call it the yes model. You've got to have your vision. That's the Y. E stands for earnings. You've got to be profitable, non-negotiable, otherwise go be an associate. And S stands for systems and team development. If we know the vision, when we look at the numbers, it's going to tell us the systems and team development we need to do, period. Period. That's the formula. That's all it is. So if you're flying blind on your numbers, like, ugh.   Guys, I'm scratching my head over here. This is stress. If you ever see me fluff my hair, it means I'm stressed, okay? My team has told me they're like, Kiera, what you do is it's a little like side fluff. And right now it's both hands fluff. Like I'm stressed out for you because I used to fly blind on numbers. So many clients flying by on non-numbers. They don't look at it. They've got multi-practices and they don't break it down. You guys, these are costly pitfalls. So remember, go back to the success and failure. They're not radically different. It's failure to look at the numbers.   It's failure to say like, I don't care if you don't know numbers or not, I don't know numbers either. But guess what? Kiera freaking loves numbers and numbers freaking love Kiera. That is how this works. It is, I'm going to force myself to learn this. You guys, on my goal board, I'm not joking you. I should like take pictures of this so you guys can see it. In my bedroom, Jason and I made this like joint goal board. If you guys wanna get your spouse involved in your life, cause you feel like you're just driving and growing without them.   Joint goal board between the two of us has been amazing and it sits in our bedroom. It's not pretty It was built on Canva. It cost me eight bucks. It took us a Sunday to do it together But I literally have this like sign and it says tax expert ahead. I Did not know taxes. I was getting burned every single year I was crying every single December and I was like I am never doing this again I'm going to become a freaking tax expert. I started reading books on it. I called up the CPAs. I started researching it I was like, okay, it's just a formula. Yes, of course. They're like all these ways I can reduce it   But at the end of the day, it's really just a very simple formula. Whatever my profit is, whatever my tax bracket is, I know, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, this is a very simplified version. CPAs don't come after me right now. It's just truly like, if I can take that, I'm always gonna have a slush and I'm not gonna cry. And I figured it out. And for you, I want you to take it on like, you're gonna learn taxes. You're going to be profitable. I want your goal for 2026, 2027, 2028, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, forever that you are profitable always.   I have a mantra and I say, Kiera Dent does not lose money. And I want you to be the same way. Always profitability, profitability, profitability, get the production, get the profitability. We got to, and again, the way we increase profit, increase production, increase collections, decrease costs. Those are the three levers. So look at the numbers, get your team bought in. This is a costly mistake that I don't want you to make. So commit that by Friday, you will have a KPI scorecard in place, or you're going to call Dental A Team.   TheDentalATeam.com go on over, email me, hello, book a call, whatever it is, I will help you out, but you are going to learn your numbers. There's no more excuses. It's not that hard. I promise you, our fee will offset the amount of money you are going to make. Most of our clients are like a two to one, eight to one, 10 to one ratio, meaning we are making that much more money. So a 10 to 30 % increase in production, 30 % would be a three to one ratio. Like you guys, it's insanity what we're able to do for offices. I love it. We usually pay for ourselves in the first couple of months.   So it's 100 % worth it. Know your numbers. You just knowing your numbers and tracking and measuring will make you more profitable. So don't be the person that has these costs and mistakes. You gotta take ownership. Like bottom line, the way we had this, mistake number one, delegating tasks and not having ownership. So think back to that. We gotta delegate like that office I told you about. Again, this is a $7 million practice. You wanna be like a $7 million? Do the things today to be the $7 million practice.   You've got to have the hard conversations, normalize that, have that be a part of your culture. And number three is you've got to freaking know those numbers. I love numbers, numbers love me. And if you're not great at this, that's why I've got the podcast. That's why we're here. Reach out, Hello@TheDentalATeam.com. Do not do this alone. Do not spend another minute struggling through these costly pitfalls. You don't deserve it. Your team doesn't deserve it. Your patients don't deserve it. So reach out, it's time. Hello@TheDentalATeam.com. But please commit to yourself that you're going to do this.   You're not failing. You're not clear over the failure bucket. You're just a few little shifts away from it. And again, remember success and failure are not radically different. They're just small little micro steps. You can quickly make those back and get closer to where you actually want to be. It's not huge. It's not hard. It's not all these crazy things. It's small incremental changes that are going to radically change your life. So make the call, make the changes, commit. You're worth it. You deserve it. And as always, I'm cheering you on forever and ever.   I'm here on your team. I'm here in your corner. I'm here in your air pod. Wherever I'm at, just know I'm rooting for you. You deserve it. Let's do this together. Let's have you do this on your own, whatever it's going to be, but commit to not having these costly mistakes be your mistakes. And as always, thanks for listening. I'll catch you next time on the Dental A Team Podcast.  

In this episode, we explore postpartum care through the ancient wisdom of Ayurveda and the deeply nourishing concept known as the “sacred window.” Joining me is Christine Eck, founder and director of the Center for Sacred Window Studies, an educational resource dedicated to Conscious Postpartum Care rooted in Ayurvedic tradition.Christine breaks down what Ayurveda is and how it views the postpartum period as a critical time for healing, restoration, and long-term well-being. We dive into the meaning of the first 42 days postpartum, why this window is considered sacred, and how intentional practices during this time can support a mother's physical recovery, emotional balance, and spiritual integration after birth.We also discuss the essential role of food, rest, daily rhythms, and ritual in postpartum healing, along with practical, accessible ways modern moms can bring Ayurvedic principles into their own recovery—even without formal support or traditional care. This conversation is a grounding reminder that postpartum isn't something to “bounce back” from, but a time to be held, nourished, and honored.Whether you're newly postpartum, expecting, or supporting new mothers, this episode offers a compassionate and holistic perspective on caring for the birthing body and spirit.Connect with Christine Eck:Official Website: https://sacredwindowstudies.com/postpartum care ayurveda, ayurvedic postpartum traditions, sacred window postpartum, postpartum healing ayurveda, 42 days postpartum ayurveda, conscious postpartum care, ayurvedic postpartum practices, holistic postpartum recovery, postpartum rituals after birth, traditional postpartum care practices, postpartum healing rituals, ayurvedic care after childbirth, postpartum care traditions around the world, how to heal postpartum naturally, ayurveda for new moms, postpartum rest and nourishment, sacred postpartum traditions, emotional healing after birth, postpartum support for moms, fourth trimester care, holistic motherhood, natural postpartum recovery, maternal wellness postpartumwww.NewMomTalk.comBuy Me A CoffeeIG: @NewMomTalk.PodcastYouTube: @NewMomTalkMariela@NewMomTalk.comInterested in being a guest?

In this episode, Monique explores a moment so many high-achieving women experience. That moment an opportunity appears and you quietly start building a case for why you shouldn't take it.Using the launch of her new YouTube channel as a real-time example, Monique shares what it looks like to move forward without waiting to feel “ready.” She unpacks the familiar fears that often surface when visibility increases, such as What if it flops? What if people judge me? What if I'm not enough? and offers a grounded reframe.For anyone sitting on a pivot, a transition, or a new chapter, Monique encourages you to shoot the shot, stop self-disqualifying and see what happens. LINKSJoin Monique's NewsletterApply for her upcoming Retreat March 1-4, 2026 in Palm Springs, CAGEMS DROPPED“​Don't ​count ​yourself ​out ​before ​​you ​give ​it ​a ​shot.”“We ​have ​this ​​very ​interesting ​relationship ​to ​our ​achievements ​as ​high ​achievers ​where ​it's ​like ​as ​soon ​as ​you ​achieve ​something, ​you ​write ​it ​off. ​It's ​just ​like, ​okay, ​on ​to ​the ​next.We ​have ​just ​been ​dismissing ​over ​and ​over ​and ​over ​again, ​not ​enoughing ​over ​and ​over ​and ​over ​again. ​Through ​every milestone, ​every ​point ​of ​new ​expansion, ​every ​big ​lesson ​learned, ​or every ​iInternal ​shift.

And automakers pull back from Super Bowl ads, choosing more flexible, efficient buys.Only two automakers — Toyota and Cadillac — are confirmed for Super Bowl 2026, as most brands step away from the pricey event. Facing budget pressure and chasing efficiency, car companies are shifting spend to longer campaigns across other live events.Brands like Ford, BMW, Kia, Honda, Nissan, and Stellantis are sitting it out, citing affordability and better ROI elsewhere.With a $9 million price tag per 30 seconds plus production, the Super Bowl is losing appeal amid industry cost pressures.Automakers are turning to the Olympics, World Cup, and NBA All-Star Game for more cost-effective, multi-week campaigns.“There's no secret that the premium of being in the Super Bowl certainly would come at the expense of having some additional investment,” said Sean Gilpin, Hyundai CMO.Waymo is becoming a real contender in ride-hailing while Tesla goes for a classic price war play. A new Obi study compares autonomous and traditional services, showing a market reshaping rapidly — especially in San Francisco.Waymo's robotaxi pricing has dropped and is now only 12.7% more than Uber and 27.3% more than Lyft, compared to 30–40% higher in mid-2025.Tesla Robotaxi leads on price at just $8.17 per ride, but lags with 15.32-minute average wait times.Obi CEO Ashwini Anburajan: “They're using the playbook that Uber and Lyft used... and we know that playbook works."Consumers now prioritize customer experience over price with 59% abandoning a brand after one bad experience versus 55% fleeing due to price hikes, according to a global Havas CX study. Consistency and emotional connection are key drivers of loyalty.A global survey of 59,000+ shoppers shows experience matters more than cost — more consumers ditch brands after poor service than high prices.Consistent, seamless experiences across digital and physical channels top what customers value most.Emotional connection and personalization now weigh as heavily as functional efficiency in shaping CX.“Loyalty can only be earned by delivering unwavering consistency, authentic personal connection, and experiences that create lasting emotional memories,” says David Shulman.This episode of the Automotive State of the Union is brought to you by Amazon Autos: MeetJoin Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

Kristin and I read through listener comments, including theories about how I can create characters without an inner monologue, and real-world ophthalmology stories that lead me to beg you, once again, to call your eye doctor before going to the ER. We also talk about scrubs, fashion, and the fact that someone published a real scientific paper about what patients think doctors should wear. Then we play a game where Kristin has to guess what medical procedures are, when they were invented, and which ones humanity probably regrets, from trepanation and lobotomies to CPR, anesthesia, dialysis, vaccines, C-sections, and appendectomies. Takeaways: Plane Etiquette Is a Minefield: Leg contact, armrests, and the silent rules no one agreed on. Brains Are Loud: Why some people can't turn their thoughts off, and why meditation advice often backfires. Eye Emergencies: When floaters mean “call now” and why your ophthalmologist wants you to skip the ER if possible. Research Reality Check: How mandatory med-student research may be diluting science instead of advancing it. Medicine's Wild History: From trepanation and lobotomies to vaccines, dialysis, and CPR, proof that progress is messy. — To Get Tickets to Wife & Death: You can visit Glaucomflecken.com/live  We want to hear YOUR stories (and medical puns)!

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1254: GM takes a multibillion-dollar EV hit but says 2026 looks brighter, white-hat hackers cash in by cracking EV chargers and infotainment systems, and the airline industry gets its annual report cardGeneral Motors closed 2025 with a wider quarterly loss after taking billions in EV and China-related charges. But underneath the headline number, core profits held up, cash flowed in North America, and GM is signaling confidence that 2026 will be stronger.GM reported a $3.3B Q4 net loss after booking more than $7B in charges, largely tied to cutting back EV production and restructuring its China joint venture.Adjusted EBIT rose 13% in the quarter, and GM earned $10.5B in North America for the year, resulting in profit-sharing bonuses up to $10,500 for UAW workers.EV losses are projected to improve by $1B–$1.5B in 2026CEO Mary Barra told shareholders the company sees stability ahead: “We expect the U.S. new vehicle market will continue to be resilient… 2026 should be an even better year for GM.”From EV chargers to infotainment systems, the Pwn2Own Automotive 2025 competition exposed how much of the industry is still very hackable.Hackers earned $886,250 uncovering nearly 50 zero-day vulnerabilities in EV chargers, infotainment systems, and automotive softwareInfotainment systems from Kenwood, Sony, and Alpine were successfully exploited, along with chargers from ChargePoint, Autel, Ubiquiti, Phoenix Contact, WolfBox, and Tesla.Tesla Wall Connectors alone accounted for more than $140,000 in payouts, while the overall winning team, Summoning Team, took home $222,250.Notably, no one attempted to hack a Tesla vehicle, despite a car and large cash prizes on the table.If 2025 felt like a rough year to fly, you're not wrong. But turbulence hit everyone. What separated airlines wasn't the chaos—it was execution. The Wall Street Journal's airline scorecard crowns a new winner and reshuffles the pecking order.(Worst → Best): Frontier (T-last), American (T-last), JetBlue (7th), United (6th), Spirit (5th), Alaska (4th), Delta (3rd), Allegiant (2nd), Southwest (1st).Southwest wins for the first time since 2020, ending Delta's four-year streak with strong all-around operations and industry-low complaints.Explaining Southwest's edge, COO Andrew Watterson said the airline avoids the “easy” option when things go sideways: “It's very easy to cancel a flight. That's the path of least resistance.”This episode of the Automotive State of the Union is brought to you by Amazon Autos: Meet customers where tJoin Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

4.6 million podcasts exist. Only a tiny slice stay active. The difference isn't gear or luck. It's whether you respect the listener's attention (and measure it).In this episode, I'm joined by my husband (and longtime podcaster) Badr Milligan to recap what we learned at Podfest Orlando and how to apply it to your company's show.Takeaways:Track completion rate (aka average consumption). It tells you what's working way faster than download counts.Fix your first minute. Say what the listener will get, then get to it.Stop “one recording, everywhere” thinking. Audio and video need different context and editing.Consistency is a moat. Most shows quit. That's the opportunity.Build diehard fans you can identify and activate, not a random pile of downloads.Fav quote from the episode: “It's never been easier to make content, but now you have to make the editorial choice of what you're going to produce, and why?”Links: Badr's podcast, The ShortboxJax Podcasters UnitedPodfest websiteWatch this episode on YouTube Feedback?

According to recent data, fewer than half of Multnomah County residents were born in Oregon — meaning most Portlanders aren't actually from here.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1253: Today we're digging into why fixed ops is carrying the dealership profit load, how dealer-focused AI just landed serious funding, and why Ford teaming up with Carhartt is about a lot more than merch.With new-car sales slowing, aging vehicles and a technician shortage are putting service departments squarely in the profit hot seat. Dealers are leaning into mobile service, tech, and creative staffing strategies to protect margins and make every service lane interaction count.Service departments drive 85–90% of revenue for many dealersVehicle age hit 12.8 years in 2025, boosting service demandMobile service is gaining traction despite $100K startup costs, while AI and video tools improve efficiency—but dealers must balance tech with personal service.“There is not a department in any dealership in America more important than the service department,” said Tom McCollum, chairman of the Audi National Dealer Council.As dealerships increasingly lean on conversational AI to handle customer communication at scale, book more appointments, and squeeze more revenue out of every lead, Mia Labs has raised a hefty Series A round.Mia Labs raised $20 million, bringing total capital raised to $29 millionThe platform now serves 350+ franchise dealerships and enabled more than $45 million in dealer revenue in 2025 alone.Mia's AI has powered over 1 million customer conversations, booked 130,000+ sales and service appointments, and saved 1.5 million human-hours.The company has new product launches teased for NADA 2026, with CEO and co-founder Brian Hoang saying “We're building the most sophisticated AI super employee in the automotive space,”Ford is teaming up with Carhartt in a multiyear partnership that blends brand, philanthropy, and workforce development. The goal: get more people into skilled trades, support technicians, and celebrate the work ethic that keeps dealerships, trucks, and communities moving.The partnership includes co-branded gear, uniforms for technician trainees, and a Carhartt edition 2027 Ford Super Duty with design cues inspired by real job-site textures.Ford, Carhartt, and partners are backing technician training through scholarships, tools, and support programs aimed at lowering barriers to skilled trades careers.“This is such a great match because we're all committed to making sure workers have the best equipment and gear that they can get,” said Ford CEO Jim Farley.This episode of the Automotive State of the Union is brought to you by Amazon Autos: Meet customerJoin Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

Welcome to another episode of the Sustainable Clinical Medicine Podcast! In this episode, Sarah invites Dr. Elizabeth Beg Hall, an expert in adult ADHD and psychiatrist, to discuss executive function challenges faced by physicians, particularly those with ADHD. Dr. Hall shares her professional journey from family medicine to psychiatry, highlighting the importance of psychoeducation and executive function skills development. They explore common struggles such as time management, charting, and the impact of life transitions like menopause and parenthood. Dr. Hall offers practical advice on enhancing productivity, using tools like time tracking and setting realistic goals. She also emphasizes the importance of self-awareness, kindness, and understanding one's strengths to manage executive function effectively. Tune in to gain valuable insights into managing ADHD and improving executive function skills in the demanding field of medicine. Here are 3 key takeaways from this episode: ADHD in High-Achieving Physicians is Real—and Often Missed: Intelligence, creativity, and strong relationships help many physicians compensate for ADHD symptoms through medical school. Diagnosis often comes later when scaffolding disappears—starting practice, having children, menopause, or taking on leadership roles. The myth that "you can't have ADHD if you're a doctor" keeps many from getting help. Executive Function Skills Matter for Everyone, Not Just ADHD: Supporting your executive function—through proper sleep, regular meals, movement, and brief breathing breaks—benefits all physicians. These aren't just "ADHD strategies"; they're fundamental tools for managing cognitive fatigue and the overwhelming administrative burden of modern medicine. Start Small: Track, Reflect, and Be Kind to Yourself Instead of trying to fix everything at once, try tracking your time for just one hour or one morning. Then reflect: What were your expectations? Were they realistic? This awareness helps you adjust without shame. Multiply your time estimates by three, control your environment (headphones, closed doors, no wifi), and remember—you're not going to do groceries in a 20-minute break. Meet Dr. Elisabeth Baerg Hall: Elisabeth Baerg Hall MD, CCFP, FRCPC As a respected speaker, educator, and therapist specializing in adult ADHD, Dr. Baerg Hall is known for her leadership in building capacity to care for and improve services for adults with ADHD. She is passionate about advancing physician wellness, particularly in supporting medical professionals who have ADHD, through her targeted physician program, Build a Better Core and other Executive Function Workshops. She directs the ADHD Centre for Education and Training. She led development of ADHD Skills Builder, an online modular ADHD psychoeducational program funded by the James Family Foundation.

This week I'm uncovering a lost city that was left out of my lost cities two parter (episodes 131 and 132). Nineveh, the capital of the ancient Assyrian Empire, is mentioned in the Bible no less than 19 times. But, for millennia we weren't sure if it was a fictional setting or a real place. All of that changed in the 1840s when British explorer Austen Henry Layard discovered the ruins of a vast metropolis on the banks of the Tigris River that could only be Nineveh. Within those ruins he found a palace and within that palace a library, the Library of Ashurbanipal. The information held within Ashurbanipal's library told us everything we never knew about the Assyrian Empire, once the largest empire in the world. So, what did those clay tablets say?

Guest Author: Paul GregoryHeadline: Escalation: From General Walker to New OrleansSummary: In April 1963, a shaken Lee confessed to Marina that he had attempted to shoot General Edwin Walker. Following this, Lee moved to New Orleans to manufacture credentials as a pro-Castro radical, hoping to manipulate his way into obtaining visas for Cuba and the Soviet Union.Article: On the night of April 10, 1963, Lee returned home visibly agitated and confessed to Marina that he had fired a shot at General Edwin Walker, a planned assassination attempt that Marina kept secret to her later regret. Following this event, Lee moved to New Orleans to establish himself as a pro-Castro radical, hoping to use these fabricated credentials to secure a visa for Cuba and the Soviet Union, though his focus remained on international travel rather than a plot against Kennedy at that time.

This episode we tackle something a lot of people are quietly worried about: virtual residency interviews. Are they here to stay? Are they fair? And how exactly are programs supposed to deal with applicants using AI to help answer questions in real time? Then we get into the eyeballs. A young woman with hair growing where hair absolutely should not exist. A 78-year-old with “sudden vision loss” that turns out to be anything but. And two diagnoses that are oddly satisfying, very treatable, and a reminder that not every scary presentation ends in disaster. Takeaways: Why virtual residency interviews save enormous time and money, but introduce brand-new problems no one anticipated. How AI-assisted interview answers are becoming the newest ethical headache for program directors. The telltale clue that turns a “chalazion” into a congenital dermoid cyst hiding in plain sight. How a patient can suddenly realize they've had major vision loss for months and why it's more common than you think. The single pupil exam finding that separates a true eye stroke from a very fixable cataract.

When Sergio Cilli https://www.imdb.com/name/nm1826186/ made his first AI film, it really didn't get noticed. And neither did many others he made. Sure they were good. But what got noticed more was the one video he made, which showed why AI isn't quite and why it's not yet the monster filmmakers fear.Sergio joins Kristyna Archer https://www.archer.vision/ to talk about making AI films. What works, what doesn't, and how filmmakers can be ready for what comes next.Matt and Oren dive into how much it costs, where commercial budgets might be headed, and how AI will be adopted into filmmaking and commercials. And Sergio and Kristyna bring two different perspectives.Kristyna is an Adobe Firefly, an AI ambassador for Adobe, and has a background working with LED volume walls, Unreal Engine, and generally skews to the tech side of things. Sergio came from fear. It was only after his wife encouraged him to experiment that he discovered his desire to explore AI and filmmaking.This is a conversation about AI that tackles the elephant in the room from a variety of perspectives from working commercial directors. And it's not just talk, it's commercial directors who've actually explored the tools and put out some stuff – that if it wasn't impressive, it could cast a shadow on their directing careers. Or as Oren's friend likes to say, it tackles the “elephant that AI'nt in the room”.See Sergio's AI Audition video at https://youtu.be/AEbqJj2hIjgAnd find Sergio and Kristyna on Instagram @sergiocilli and @archerstudioooooo---Help our Patreon! https://www.patreon.com/JustShootItPodMatt's Endorsement: MoldQuestVHS on Instagram @moldquestvhsOren's Endorsement: The Pitt on HBO and the video "Beat Any Escape Room- 10 proven tricks and tips" from Mark Rober https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zwgaTYOx0RISergio's Endorsement: "Extraordinary Things to Cutout and Collage", the book. https://www.mariarivans.com/extraordinary-things-to-cut-out-and-collage and Four Sigmatic Mushroom Coffee https://us.foursigmatic.com/products/original-mushroom-coffeeKristyna's Endorsement: The Wonder App has a great community of artists, producers, conversation and more, https://app.wonderstudios.com/ And also the Endel App https://endel.io/ for people with ADHD.
