In this inspiring episode of Why Not Now? with Amy Jo Martin, we meet Dr. Shaggy, Dallas-based cosmetic dentist, entrepreneur and visionary. She is a Renegade in every sense of the word. Affectionately known as the “Frank Lloyd Wright of Smiles,” Dr. Shaggy is redefining what it means to build a brand through purpose, confidence, and function - one smile at a time. From launching her first dental practice during the peak of the pandemic to expanding into Austin, she shares how she's grown a multi-million dollar smile empire by blending aesthetics with rehabilitation, and business savvy with pure heart. This episode dives deep into what it means to invest in yourself. Dr. Shaggy gets candid about her nontraditional path, immigrant upbringing, what it took to bet on herself, and how she continues to elevate others, from her patients (including NFL players) to fellow dentists through her Veneer Mastery courses. You will walk away with insights on: Building and evolving a personal brand with intention Navigating imposter syndrome while scaling success Setting boundaries as a founder and business leader Knowing when to make things happen vs. letting them happen Investing in yourself to unlock new levels of confidence Whether you're in Dallas, Austin or beyond, Dr. Shaggy's story will ignite your belief in what's possible when you bet on yourself and lead with love.

This week, we attempt to unravel the knot of love and infidelity with two films that couldn't be more different in their approach: Ingmar Bergman's playful classic, Smiles of a Summer Night (1955) and Mike Nichols' modern, biting drama, Closer (2004). We'll see how these two wildly different takes on intimacy and humiliation reveal the uncomfortable truths about what it means to love someone deeply - and to completely mess it up. Hosted on Acast.

Pastor Tony Bourque's message from the weekly Water's Edge Online Experience.
I know how exhausting it can feel-carrying the weight of needing to have it all figured out.The late nights of overthinking. The silent prayers. The moments where nothing makes sense.But what if... just for today... you gave yourself permission to breathe?To not force the answers.To sit gently with the unknown.Sometimes, the most beautiful clarity doesn't come when we chase it—it arrives when we soften.When we stop demanding and start trusting.You're not falling behind.You're simply unfolding.Be kind to your heart today.You are exactly where you are supposed to be.Think of the song "December, 1963, oh what a night" ...oh what a week, oh what amonth, oh what a year!!!!Embrace your slownessPause and reflectEverything is working out ever better than you can possibly imagine.Smiles, Coach SonyaDig a little deeperTake an assessment ot twoWatch This recording #asksonya #afreshapproach #sonyajanisse #rightontime #evenbetter #lifechanginglifecoach #slowness #holistichealthcoach #linkinbio #podcastepisode #softness

In this episode of Quick Hits, DeAndre Coke breaks down a wave of updates shaking up the travel rewards space. From JetBlue's game-changing “25 for 25” promotion, which could land travelers 25 years of elite Mosaic status and up to 350,000 points, to Turkish Airlines' 6-Continents Challenge with a million-mile prize, there's no shortage of bold airline promos this week.

In this transformative episode of The Authentic Dentist Podcast, Dr. Allison House sits down with Dr. Brian Harris, a visionary cosmetic dentist who revolutionized his practice through authentic connection and innovative technology. Dr. Harris shares his remarkable journey from traditional general dentistry to becoming a leader in cosmetic dentistry and dental technology innovation.The conversation reveals how authentic leadership in dentistry can emerge when practitioners embrace vulnerability and genuine connection with patients. Dr. Harris's story demonstrates the power of aligning clinical expertise with personal values, showing how one dentist's willingness to step outside conventional boundaries created both sustainable success and meaningful patient transformation.Through candid discussion about his transition from general dentistry to exclusive cosmetic work, Dr. Harris illustrates how finding fulfillment as a dentist often requires the courage to pursue your authentic calling, even when it means deviating from traditional practice models. His experience mentored by his father—also one of Dr. House's mentors—showcases the importance of wisdom-based guidance in developing both technical excellence and authentic leadership.The episode explores how technology can enhance rather than replace human connection in dentistry, demonstrating that authentic dental practice isn't about choosing between innovation and relationships, but about using innovation to deepen meaningful connections with patients.
Podcast Title Title: Smarter Smiles : How AI is Transforming the Future of Dentistry Thumbnail Tagline: AI-Driven Dental Future Let's face it—dealing with insurance is the least favorite part of running a practice. But what if AI could take that burden off your plate without replacing your team? In this episode, I'm joined by Bruce Bell and Mike Nelson of Stratus, and we're breaking down how artificial intelligence is making life easier for your front desk, improving patient experience, and reclaiming your time—one insurance call at a time. AI isn't a trend—it's a tool. And it's changing how we work. In this conversation with Bruce and Mike from Stratus, we dive into how their platform helps practices automate insurance verification. Whether you're tired of hold music or frustrated by inconsistent EOBs, Stratus could be a total game-changer. We also explore how AI is showing up across the dental industry—from clinical tools like Pearl and Overjet to admin solutions that reduce overhead and burnout. You'll hear how practices are actually using these tools (and what most are missing out on). And if you're fee-for-service, yes—there's still a reason to listen. Finally, we walk through how to actually bring AI into your practice—without getting overwhelmed or oversold. Because this isn't just about adopting new tech. It's about building a smarter, leaner, more enjoyable practice—for you and your team. We covered a lot of ground in this episode—here are a few big takeaways I don't want you to miss: AI isn't here to replace your team—it's here to free them up to focus on what truly matters. Stratus automates insurance verification, reducing costly errors and cutting down time spent on the phone with insurance companies. Even fee-for-service practices are leveraging AI to offer added transparency and value to their patients. Most dental offices underutilize their software tools—AI can bring critical insights to the surface and help teams take smarter action. AI is a powerful enhancement, not a replacement—use it to support your systems, but always double-check when it matters. — Key Takeaways 00:44 Introduction to AI in Dentistry 02:33 Meet the Guests: Bruce Bell and Mike Nelson of Stratus 02:58 What Stratus Does and How It Streamlines Insurance Verification 07:52 Broader Impact of AI Across the Dental Industry 12:28 Is AI Replacing Jobs or Enhancing Roles? 17:03 How to Identify the Right AI Tools for Your Practice 19:28 Who Benefits Most from Stratus (and Why) 25:27 Addressing the Limitations and Misconceptions Around AI 28:40 Real-Life Wins: Saving Time, Reducing Write-Offs, and Improving Work-Life Balance 30:26 Final Thoughts and Lightning Round with Bruce & Mike — Connect with Bruce & Mike Learn more about Stratus AI: www.useStratus.com

Podcast Intro – Gums & Gossip Season 7 Opening Episode Hey y'all, it's Hope—your Gum Goddess Podcaster—back behind the mic and excited to kick off Season 7 of Gums & Gossip! Where have I been??? I've been on a solo journey lately, meeting people for a purpose, and gathering stories that go way beyond the dental chair. This season, we're diving deeper—into laughter, life, healing, and those unfiltered moments that remind us we're all human.Before we get rolling, I want to share 3 things I do daily to stay grounded and give a little Hope—pun intended.1. I find something that makes me smile. Whether it's a stranger's laugh, a memory, or a good lipstick moment in the mirror—smiles are powerful. And when I smile for myself, it naturally spreads to others. That's the kind of energy I want to share here.2. I get clear on what I don't want. Sometimes that clarity is more important than chasing what we think we want. Every “no” creates space for a better “yes.” It's how I stay aligned with what truly matters.3. I give Hope. Not just my name—but the feeling. Whether through a story, a guest's voice, or a little dental truth bomb, this show is here to inspire. To ease fears. To bring some heart into healthcare—and humanity.

I'm sure there have been people in your life you thought, “I'd like to be like her—or like him.” You saw things in that person which were attractive and endearing, and you desired those qualities for yourself. Well, I want to encourage you to have that attitude toward a man named Joseph. His name was Joseph, but the apostles called him Barnabas, which means Son of Encouragement. You can read about him in Acts 4. Imagine people calling you by a name that signified you were an encouraging person. I can't think of a greater compliment, can you? I want to show you how you can become a Barnabas in your workplace; you can be known as a person who encourages others. A good friend, Traci Mason, has compiled these ideas and allowed me to share them with you. We all recognize our workplaces can be full of discouragement, especially in these days of economic uncertainty. But this gives us a perfect opportunity to help others by becoming an encouraging person. Now, mind you, this will take some time and effort on your part, but the return on your investment will be eternal! So, here are some practical ways you can become a Barnabas where you work: Write notes. Handwritten notes are almost extinct. Keep a supply of note cards and encourage colleagues by placing a note on their desk, in their mailbox, or in their hand. It's easy to make personalized cards on our computers now; so, get creative and write a note just to encourage someone. Send e-cards. It's really easy to send an e-card to your coworkers to let them know you are thinking of them. You can even send the same card to multiple addresses. Employees receive messages that make requests and give instructions. They would surely welcome something more pleasant in their inbox, and an e-card would be a pleasant surprise. Remember birthdays. Find out the birthdates of coworkers, put them on your calendar, and simply give each coworker a birthday card to help them celebrate their special day. We send birthday cards here each month, and I've been amazed at how many people are encouraged to receive a special birthday card. It's so easy to do! Smile! Did you realize a simple smile can cheer up and encourage someone? Smiles are contagious and can brighten the atmosphere where you work. When talking to or passing by others, just turn up the corners of your mouth and flash them a radiant smile. It costs you nothing, and it can really make a difference in someone's day. Greet people! As you enter the workplace, greet coworkers with a simple, “Good morning.” You never know the energy it took for others to arrive at work. A pleasant greeting can start a person's day off right and possibly help them forget about their troubles. Be the Welcome Committee. When a new employee joins the team, introduce yourself and offer to be of assistance. Help that person find his or her way around, offer to have lunch together. Think how comforting it could be for that new colleague, because being the new person can be challenging and a little frightening. Share your lunch. Purposely take more than you can eat for lunch and invite a coworker to eat with you. Or if you baked something special and have some leftovers, bring it in for others to enjoy. You could go the extra mile and ask them ahead of time to share lunch with you the next day. You may be thinking these don't sound very impressive or important, but it is so often the little things we do can touch someone else. These things help them see they are not forgotten, and they are encouraged. Become an encourager on the job. It will make a difference. Here are some more creative ways you can be a Barnabas on the job: Offer to help your boss. That's what I said—offer to help your boss. Instead of running from work or assignments, ask your boss what you can do today to help him or her, especially if you know your boss is under a lot of pressure. Bosses need help just like everybody else, yet often they are overlooked.
