Beyond the Story Hearts Talk Podcast, Ciara M. Clark delves into the SMC way—Soulful, Mindful, and Continuous—encouraging listeners to break free from limiting beliefs and embrace their highest potential.Main Content:1. **Understanding the SMC Way** Sierra introduces the SMC way as a framework for personal growth. She emphasises that S stands for Soulful, M for Mindful, and C for Continuous. This approach encourages individuals to continuously engage with their inner selves, allowing for personal transformation. She notes, "This is a continuum of bursting ourselves off and getting ourselves back up again."2. **The Concept of Superlative-ness** Exploring the term "superlative," Ciara defines it as being in our highest form. She shares how understanding this concept shifted her narrative, reminding listeners that no matter their circumstances, they remain their superlative selves. She states, "When you realize that you are your highest degree in your highest form, no matter what happens, you are still your superlative self."3. **Breaking Predated Narratives** A significant portion of the discussion revolves around the impact of predicated narratives—beliefs shaped by our upbringing, society, and self-doubt. Ciara urges listeners to recognize and challenge these limiting beliefs, sharing personal anecdotes that highlight her journey of overcoming self-doubt and negativity. "We find ourselves believing in predated narratives about ourselves, which leads to self-hate and stinky thinking," she explains.4. **The Black Friday Investment Series** As the episode wraps up a special series, Sierra emphasises shifting the focus from consumerism to self-investment. She introduces the acronym BLACK, which stands for Break cycles, Learn yourself, Align your story, Choose conscious connections, and Keep blooming. Each component encourages listeners to take actionable steps toward personal growth, transforming their narratives from victimhood to empowerment.5. **Historical Context and Resilience** Ciara discusses the importance of understanding our history as a foundation for growth. Drawing on her personal experiences and cultural narratives, she highlights the resilience of the Black community, emphasising that despite obstacles, the ability to rebuild and innovate remains strong. "No matter how many obstacles Black communities have faced, we always can rebuild, re-innovate, restore, and re-imagine," she asserts.Conclusion: The episode serves as a powerful reminder that we all have the capacity to transcend our limiting beliefs and embrace our true selves. By breaking free from predated narratives and investing in ourselves, we can cultivate a life that reflects our highest potential. As Ciara beautifully states, "You are fully capable of blooming from what you have gone through."Key Takeaways: - Embrace the SMC way: Soulful, Mindful, and Continuous.- Recognise and challenge predicated narratives that limit your potential.- Focus on self-investment rather than consumerism, especially during times like Black Friday.- Understand your history to inform your future and cultivate resilience.#personalgrowth, #selfimprovement #podcasthighlights, #resilience #selfdiscovery #empowerment #breakingnarratives #BlackFridayinvestment #SMCway, #superlativeself.

On today's episode, Gary Bird, founder of SMC, joins Dr. Mark Costes to unpack the real reasons most dental marketing fails—and why operations are often the true growth limiter. They discuss the dangers of focusing on “activities” like websites or SEO instead of real outcomes, and how busyness is often mistaken for productivity. Gary shares why 35% of calls in dental practices go unanswered during business hours and how that one stat alone crushes marketing ROI.   The conversation dives deep into the link between lead gen and operational execution, including conversion rates, appointment availability, and the need for follow-up systems. Gary also explains why his agency focuses more on operational performance than flashy marketing tactics—and why that gives their clients a competitive advantage. If you're looking to double your new patient flow but your schedule is already full, this episode is a wake-up call you don't want to miss.
