In this throwback episode, Kevin and Zach are joined by their one time co-host Dr. Mac Jones to tackle the listener-requested topic of night guards and bite guards. The guys dive into their vastly different philosophies and approaches to fabricating and prescribing occlusal guards. Kevin represents the "pro" side, detailing his workflow involving sleep tests and NTI appliances. Mac takes a more skeptical stance, outlining his "Top 10" reasons why night guards are often problematic in his practice, leading him to make very few. Zach falls somewhere in the middle, making several types of guards in-house but struggling with patient acceptance despite lower fees. They discuss different guard designs, lab vs. in-house fabrication, costs, patient communication challenges, managing acute TMJ pain, and when to refer.

Which imaging techniques should you prioritize for TMD patients? Does a panoramic radiograph hold any value?  When should you consider taking a CBCT of the joints instead? How about an MRI scan for the TMJ? Dr. Dania Tamimi joins Jaz for the first AES 2026 Takeover episode, diving deep into the complexities of TMD diagnosis and TMJ Imaging. They break down the key imaging techniques, how to use them effectively, and the importance of accurate reports in patient care. They also discuss key strategies for making sense of MRIs and CBCTs, highlighting how the quality of reports can significantly impact patient care and diagnosis. Understanding these concepts early can make all the difference in effectively managing TMD cases. https://youtu.be/NBCdqhs5oNY Watch PDP223 on Youtube Protrusive Dental Pearl: Don't lose touch with the magic of in-person learning — balance online education with attending live conferences to connect with peers, meet mentors, and experience the true essence of dentistry!

Key Takeaways: Imaging should follow clinical diagnosis → not replace it. Every imaging modality answers different questions; choose wisely. TMJ disorders affect more than the jaw → they influence face, airway, growth, posture. Think beyond replacing teeth → treatment should serve function, not just fill space. Avoid “satisfaction of search error” → finding one problem shouldn't stop broader evaluation.

Send us a message!As if menopause didn't already bring enough changes, many women are surprised to discover that the hormonal rollercoaster doesn't just impact reproductive health—it can also wreak havoc on your jaw. Research shows that fluctuating estrogen levels during menopause can contribute to TMJ (temporomandibular joint) disorders, which can cause jaw pain, clicking or popping sounds, difficulty chewing or speaking, and even headaches or facial pain.

Hey Friend!   Do you struggle with TMJ or jaw pain? Maybe tension headaches or migraines from grinding your teeth? Or have you been told you grind at night and need to wear a mouth guard? If you have any of these TMJ dysfunction symptoms or any pelvic floor dysfunction symptoms like overactive bladder, pelvic pain, pain with intercourse, urinary urgency and more, then you will want to pay attention to this week's episode! I have mentioned many times throughout this show that the whole body is connected and I have even mentioned the connection between the TMJ and pelvic floor. However, this is a connection that is way more intimate and common than people may think.   So inside this episode I am diving much deeper into how the pelvic floor and TMJ or jaw joint are connected and how they influence each other. From understanding, anatomy, tension, posture and even tongue posture, we can start to connect and heal our body as a whole.  This is a connection I dive into inside RESTORE so check out the details for that below if you are interested!   RESTORE is my first 12 wk online signature program hosted inside my new platform that will be an APP soon Pelvic Floor, Core & More! Inside that program I walk you through the basics of healing, restoring your breathing, posture, core function and overall strength and return to impact and intensity.  All with the guidance of me, a Pelvic Floor PT, in your pocket making sure that you are getting individualized support and feedback through the program during our weekly group coaching calls! This option is great for those that can't afford a one-on-one session for $200-$240, those that don't have access to a pelvic floor PT in person or those that want to have a structured organized program with support as they are phasing out of acute therapy treatments and working more independently.

In this episode, we answer the questions you might have about common and lesser-known autoimmune diseases: whether you are more prone during menopause, how hormonal changes may impact autoimmunity, some of the easiest lifestyle changes you can implement starting today, and perhaps most importantly that you are not alone.  My guest today will share his unique experience with both arthritis and something I've dealt with in clients, spondyloarthritis. As a physician and a patient of arthritis, he has a very unique perspective on autoimmunity in menopause.   My Guest: Dr. Micah Yu is an integrative rheumatologist who incorporates complementary medicine with traditional rheumatology. He is triple board-certified in Rheumatology, Internal Medicine and Lifestyle Medicine. He obtained his MD from Chicago Medical School and holds a Masters in Healthcare Administration and Biomedical sciences. He completed his internal medicine residency and rheumatology fellowship at Loma Linda University in Southern California. He is a graduate of the Andrew Weil Integrative Medicine Fellowship at the University of Arizona. In addition, he is certified in functional medicine through the Institute of Functional Medicine. He is able to understand his patient's medical problems from a patient perspective. The foundation of his practice is to combine allopathic medicine with complementary medicine. He works with his patients to come up with a treatment plan that not only fights the disease but also is aligned with his patient's goals.   Questions We Answer in This Episode: [00:05:16] What is rheumatoid arthritis vs other types of arthritis? [00:16:00] How can people use integrative medicine to help with their autoimmunity? [00:18:21] Do people have to go on medications when they get diagnosed with a rheumatic disease? [00:26:01] Is there any connection whatsoever with post -exercise soreness and autoimmune response? [00:27:24] How will a plant-based diet sustain muscle? Don't Let Autoimmunity in Menopause Hold You Back What are the different Arthritis Disease? Gout NOT an autoimmune arthritis and NOT wear and tear. It's an arthritis that's inflammatory that's caused by uric acid deposition in the joints. Usually comes out as a single joint (e.g. big toe, knee) and get repeated over time. Rheumatoid Arthritis IS an autoimmune arthritis. Can attack multiple joints (e.g. fingers, toes, shoulders, elbows, knee) Usually come up with swelling, retinas, stiffness of the joints. Predominant in females Spondyloarthritis Overall arching term of different arthritis (e.g. psoriatic arthritis, Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis) Usually comes out in fingers, TMJ (temporomandibular joints), elbows, shoulders, knees, feet, ankles.   What is the medication for autoimmune disease? Depends on the background, beliefs, and severity of the disease. Some may use medications, others may use alternative medicines, supplements and therapists.   What is a Whole Food Plant Based Diet (WFPB)? Helped Dr. Micah with pain remission after 2 months Whole foods include beans, organic tofu, edamame, fruits and vegetables. No highly processed vegan protein, soy protein. Soy is included in WFPB Has phytonutrients Decreases breast cancers Use clean unprocessed soy (e.g. organic tofu, edamame) Does not include processed vegan meat Some people may be sensitive to soy.   What are Inflammatory Foods? Ultra-processed foods (e.g. fast food, chips, cookies, cakes, ham, pepperoni). Food with high salt. WHO says that diet must be up to two grams of salt.

In Part 2 of this interview, Irene discusses this tricky disorder with Dr. Tony Urbanek, who specializes in its treatment using wearable custom-made devices.

On this episode, Dr. Alex and Dr. Priya welcome Dr. Robert B. Kerstein DMD, a leading figure in digital occlusion. Dr. Kerstein shares his immense knowledge and expertise to explain how Disclusion Time Reduction (DTR) therapy and the T-Scan system, are essential in diagnosing and treating bite-related issues, including TMJ disorders, muscle pain, and even symptoms like tinnitus. Dr. Kerstein also shares some amazing images and videos to demonstrate how DTR works. This discussion will clue you into how DTR aims to control muscle activity originating from tooth contact and underscores the limitations and inaccuracies of traditional methods like articulating paper compared to the precision of digital occlusion analysis.

Pain is not merely a nuisance to be silenced—it's your body's sophisticated alarm system calling for attention. In this illuminating conversation with Dr. Scott J. Vrzal, we uncover how the location of your headaches serves as a roadmap to understanding deeper health imbalances throughout your body.Dr. Vrzal, a chiropractor specializing in applied kinesiology, shares his groundbreaking approach to decoding seven distinct headache patterns and their connections to specific organ systems. Did you know that a right-sided headache typically indicates gallbladder dysfunction, while temple pain often relates to hormonal imbalances? These connections, featured in his new book "The Headache Advantage," offer powerful insights for anyone seeking relief beyond medication.Our discussion ventures into surprising territory, revealing how TMJ issues often originate not in the jaw itself but from pelvic misalignment caused by chronic adrenal stress. We explore the counterintuitive truth that most acid reflux stems from too little stomach acid rather than too much, and how wheat consumption—particularly due to glyphosate contamination—compromises gallbladder function and triggers widespread inflammation.Perhaps most valuable is Dr. Vrzal practical wisdom about using proteolytic enzymes as powerful natural anti-inflammatories that can dramatically accelerate healing after dental procedures or surgery. This approach not only addresses pain but supports your body's inherent healing mechanisms without blocking crucial liver pathways needed for recovery.Whether you're dealing with persistent headaches, unexplained pain, or simply want to understand your body's signals more clearly, this episode offers a transformative perspective on health. As Dr. Vrzal reminds us, "Pain is intended to elicit change." By learning the language your body speaks, you gain the advantage of addressing root causes rather than merely silencing symptoms.

Today's Witnesses are from the Encounter Ministries NorthEast Regional Conference that I just attended this past weekend. I had the privilege of being on a prayer team with someone who I had never met before. This is how they usually do it. If you are selected for prayer teams, you are assigned a partner that you do not know. I like this because you get to meet someone new and also because you get to learn from that person. We all pray a bit differently, and we all hear the Lord differently. it was really great to experience praying with my partner, Lynn.We were asked to pray in three different ways. The first time we prayed, it was for a baptism in the Holy Spirit. I have done this type of praying before but not very often, and I was nervous I wouldn't know what to say. However, the Holy Spirit came through, as He always does, and it was great. The first person we prayed over was slain in the spirit. I had never prayed over anyone who was slain in the Spirit before. If you don't know what that means, it means that they are so filled with the Holy Spirit that they can no longer stand, and they fall backward and lay on the ground. Of course we have people catching them so they do not get hurt. They are not passed out, but they are not really awake either. Those who I have talked to who have been slain in the Spirit said it is really peaceful. When they get up, they are so full of peace and the love of the Father.When we asked people how they were feeling at the end of our prayer, most said either “really good” or “very peaceful.” God is so good. He gave each person exactly what they wanted. There were over 600 people attending the conference, and there were only about 30 prayer groups. So, we prayed over a lot of people each time.The next section was the Prophetic Sections. So when someone would come up to us for prayer, we would ask if they had anything specific they would like us to ask God about for them. Many of them said that they didn't have anything specific, and then some of them did. What we do when we pray for a prophetic word is we ask the Lord what He would like to say to the person, and then we are quiet and listen. Then we tell the person what we heard the Lord say, and then we ask them if what we said resonates with them or makes sense to them. This last part is mostly to help us grow in our gifts. The more we know about how accurate our prophetic words are, the more we can know what is the Lord's voice and what is not.It was exciting because everything we said seemed to resonate with the people we prayed with. God is so good, too, because He must have known that we were nervous that we might not hear His voice, so oftentimes, He would give me and my partner very similar messages so that we were able to be confident it was from the Lord. We also had several people who said that the word we gave them Friday morning during the prophetic part actually confirmed what their prayer team had told them the night before during the Baptism in the Spirit section.We had one person who told us He wanted God to confirm something for Him. He wanted us to pray that God would give him a message that would confirm either something he heard the other night or something he had been thinking about. He did not tell us what he wanted to be confirmed. He didn't have to because the words we were getting were coming from God, and he knew what this young man wanted to hear. We said we would ask the Lord and then tell him what we heard. We couldn't guarantee it would be what he wanted to hear.I closed my eyes, and I immediately got an image of a cross on a hill. At first, I couldn't tell if it was Jesus's crucifixion or not. Then I saw Jesus on the cross, and I heard very clearly, “Even if you were the only one, I would have still died for you. That is how much I love you.” The young man was shocked and started to cry. He said that did confirm what he was thinking. He said for some reason, this whole conference, he had been running away from God's love. He wasn't sure why. He felt God was trying to tell him how much he loved him, and he seemed to be running away. But now he was sure that God loved him. How amazing is that? We had no idea what this young man wanted to hear, but God did!We had so many beautiful experiences just like this. It is such an honor to witness people hearing what the Lord wants to say to them. It is an honor to be used as an instrument for the Lord to pass along His words, His encouragement, and his love to each and every person we prayed with. Each person left our prayer session feeling loved and seen. That is another superpower of the Lord. When you receive prophetic words, you are able to feel seen, truly seen, and known in a way that you have never felt before. God is so good!!The last thing we prayed over was for physical healing. There was a healing service first, and then we did individual healing. During an encounter ministry healing service, they always start with corporate prayer. During this section of the healing service, everyone is involved in prayer for those who need it. The person in charge of leading the healing service calls out a part of the body, and those who need healing for that part of the body raise their hand. Then those who don't need healing for that particular part of the body stand up and go find someone with their hand raised, and they pray with them.The leader of the healing service calls out what we are to say, and we all repeat after him or her. He or she calls our commands to our body, such as, “In the name of Jesus, I command all bones, ligaments, joints, and muscles associated with this pain to be healed now.” or “In the name of Jesus, I command all pain to leave now.” Everyone who is praying with someone will repeat what the leader says. Then, the person who was receiving prayer will take a moment and check it out and see how they are feeling. They check if the pain is gone. They check if they can do something they couldn't do before. Often, this is when we see the breakthrough. Once they step out in faith to “check” and see if they were healed, they notice they were healed.During the corporate part of the night, there were so many people who were healed at least 75% or better. There were two people who had stage 4 cancer who said their cancer hadn't been healed but that they did have healing from some of the symptoms.  One woman, Rolanda, has stage 4 cancer. It started as breast cancer but is now in her bones. She was in a lot of pain, but after the prayer, she said her knee pain and her back pain were completely gone. She still had some pain in her neck, but all the other pain was gone. Praise God!  I prayed with Rolanda during the prophetic, and I am praying that she is completely healed of her cancer and that she doesn't have to leave her children. Please, Lord, heal her!!During the corporate prayer, there were several college students sitting in front of us. One was healed when we prayed for all legs, hips, ankles, knees, toes, and anything else in that area. She had pain in her ankle, and after prayer, it was gone. She was so surprised she was crying. She couldn't believe the Lord loved her enough to heal her ankle. Next, two other college students suffered from TMJ in their jaw. One of the young ladies said it was very painful, and she had a constant click in the jaw. She was stunned that after prayer, she had no pain and almost no clicking. She decided to test it out by chewing a piece of gum. She said for a few seconds that her jaw would have usually locked up by now, but it didn't! She claimed healing, and when I saw her the next day, she said she was doing great!! The young man who suffered from the TMJ was also healed. He no longer had any pain or clicking. He was the boyfriend of the young woman whose ankle was healed!Another healing happened with a friend of mine who attended the Boston Campus of the Encounter Ministries. His name is Hugh, and he had surgery on his knee sometime last year in the spring. He is out of the cast and has been doing much better. However, earlier that day, we went to pick up pizza for our whole group. He was carrying some of the pizza down the few stairs in the park, and he said his knee was bothering him. He requested prayer during the corporate prayer section, and the pain was gone. He tested it out by showing us he could walk up the altar stairs without pain!! There were so many other people who were healed. It was amazing!!God is so good! He healed so many people that evening, whether it was when we were all praying in a group or when they went to the individual prayer teams. The whole weekend was amazing, and I am so glad I went I am so glad I volunteered to be on the prayer team. It was a truly wonderful experience.

In this episode of the Journey of My Mother's Son podcast, I talk with Dr. Michael Hutchison. Dr. Hutchison is a cosmetic and Neuromuscular Dentist who lives in Traverse City, Mi and has researched, developed and patented a new technology that uses your body's physiology to increase your strength and lower the chance of concussion. While treating TMJ, Head and neck patients Dr. Hutchison discovered that there is a body mechanism that is found in the position of your jaw that either blocks or releases motor nerve communication to all the muscles in your body. When it is working correctly you can increase your strength and performance by 16.8% on average. While testing this mechanism, none of the subjects had a concussion for the 6 years of the study. These two factors led to the development of a new jaw positioning mouth appliance that immediately increases strength and lowers the chance of concussion down to 0.2%. This new technology is called NeuroGuard+. Its mission is to help prevent concussions in youth athletes. We want to teach everyone to embrace the discovery of Physiologic Jaw alignment when participating in sports because you will reduce the risk of concussive forces reaching your brain, and you will increase your strength and performance. All mouth guards keep you from breaking your teeth. But only the NeuroGuard+ can lower the G-Force impact to your brain. The NeuroGuard+ is a medically patented do it yourself home device that is designed to customize around an athlete's bite to maintain enforcement of a physiologically aligned jaw. The NeuroGuard+ establishes correct “Physiologic Jaw Position.” It fits on the LOWER TEETH and is designed to reduce and dissipate the G-Force upon impact and reduce injury. The precise jaw alignment that the NeuroGuard+ maintains will help an athlete: ∙ Increase strength and balance ∙ Increase performance and agility ∙ Decrease occurrences of headaches ∙ Reduce the G-Force produced in a collision ∙ Increase oxygen intake and ability to speak normally through lower arch placement  Scientific studies consistently demonstrate that maintaining physiological jaw alignment reduces risk of concussion. Everyone has a unique anatomy. The NeuroGuard+ is the solution to improving safety and performance. To find out more about this incredible game changing technology, check out the NeuroGuard+ website at https://www.neuroguardplus.com/.

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Rad, a leader in sleep apnea and gum health, to explore how low-level laser therapy (LLLT) is transforming modern dentistry. We discuss the profound connection between oral health and systemic disease, highlighting the role of advanced laser treatments in preventing and managing conditions like Alzheimer's, cardiovascular disease, and diabetes. Dr. Rad shares insights on how laser technology enhances healing, reduces inflammation, and improves outcomes for conditions such as TMJ, receding gums, and biofilm-related infections. We also examine the latest research on oral hygiene's impact on long-term health, providing actionable strategies to protect both dental and systemic well-being. Join us for a compelling conversation that redefines the role of oral health in disease prevention and longevity. Key Takeaways: Laser Dentistry: Low-level laser therapy is instrumental in reducing inflammation, postoperative pain, and healing time after dental procedures. Oral-Systemic Connection: Poor oral health can lead to severe systemic diseases, including heart conditions, Alzheimer's, and diabetes, emphasizing the importance of oral hygiene in overall health. Gum Health: Emerging studies suggest lasers could help revert gum recession non-surgically, enhancing gum health without invasive procedures. Sleep Apnea: A focus on diagnosing and treating sleep apnea highlights its importance in maintaining not just oral health but overall well-being, with Dr. Rad offering insights on home-based sleep studies. Preventive Measures: Essential daily practices like regular water swishing, strategic flossing, and use of non-fluoride products help in managing oral bacteria and maintaining oral health. More About Dr. Rad: Dr. Dar Radfar, better known as Dr. Rad, is an international speaker on Sleep Apnea/Snoring, Low Level Laser Therapy, Marketing, Medical Billing and much more! A practicing dentist of 22 years, he has a passion for speaking that includes personal development and strategies that help anyone manifest the life of their dreams!

What happens when traditional counseling meets energy medicine? Katie Kitzing's a Mental Health Therapist, Substance Use Disorder Counselor & emotion/ body code practitioner's transformative journey from drug and alcohol counselor to Certified Emotion and Body Code practitioner reveals the fascinating intersection where trapped emotions manifest as physical symptoms—and how releasing these emotional imprints can lead to profound healing.Katie shares her personal awakening moment when she discovered her body intuitively knew what was wrong and what it needed to heal. This revelation led her to explore how our bodies store emotional experiences like "big rocks" weighing us down, creating what we commonly call "emotional baggage." Through muscle testing techniques that communicate directly with the body's innate wisdom, Katie accesses information below the conscious level, bringing awareness to patterns that have remained hidden yet influential.The conversation ventures into remarkable territory when exploring generational trauma—emotional imprints passed down through DNA that can affect everything from our relationship with money to chronic pain patterns. A feeling of unworthiness or scarcity might trace back to an ancestor's experience rather than your own lifetime. Through energy healing, these generational patterns can be identified and released, freeing you from limitations you never consciously created.Most compelling are the clinical applications: digestive issues linked to emotional associations with food, hip pain connected to family relationships, TMJ disorders related to kidney energy. These patterns demonstrate why conventional treatments often bring only partial relief—they're missing the emotional component that maintains the physical condition. By addressing both nutritional and emotional roots simultaneously, Katie's approach helps clients achieve breakthroughs where other methods have fallen short.Curious about exploring the emotional roots of your health challenges? Katie works remotely, making this healing work accessible regardless of location. The body-mind connection isn't just metaphorical—it's the frontier where true healing begins.Ready to connect with Katie? Visit Honey Holistic Health Follow them on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/honeyholistichealthTo learn more about holistic dentistry, check out Dr. Carver's website:http://carverfamilydentistry.comTo contact Dr. Carver directly, email her at drcarver@carverfamilydentistry.comWant to talk with someone at Dr. Carver's office?  Call her practice: 413-663-7372Reverse Gum Disease In 6 Weeks!

We continue working our way through the alphabet in my drug pronunciation series. We're on the letter “K,” and today's drug is ketamine.    In this episode, I divide ketamine into syllables, tell you which syllable to emphasize, and share my sources. Written pronunciations are helpful, so look below for the written pronunciation. Once you've listened to this episode, practice saying ketamine. Repetition is the key to mastery.   Ketamine = KEH-tuh-meen   Keh, like keg Tuh, like tug And meen, as in, “Bullies are mean!”   Emphasize KEH.  Sources: My clinical experience as a pharmacist, Google, and m-w.com. I like how Google and M-W divide the syllables and pronounce the drug name.    Thank you for listening to episode 322 of The Pharmacist's Voice ® Podcast.

Did you know that the United States Adopted Names (USAN) Council advises against using the letter "K" in generic drug names? Some languages struggle with pronouncing “K.” In fact, four letters are generally avoided in naming drugs: H, J, K, and W. While the USAN guideline applies to generic drug names, brand-name drugs also tend to avoid these letters.   A Fun Thought Experiment If you've ever been told not to do something and immediately wanted to do it, you're not alone! Just for fun, I combined all four of the "forbidden letters" into a made-up drug name: Jawkherol Sounds like a treatment for TMJ, doesn't it?   Common Mispronunciations to Avoid Some sources—including YouTube videos with thousands of views—incorrectly pronounce ketamine. Here are three examples of how NOT to say it: KET-a-MIN ket-a-MEEN KEET-a-meen Mispronunciations can lead to confusion, especially for non-native English speakers or healthcare professionals giving presentations. That's why I create these episodes—to combat misinformation and make learning drug names easier.

Send me a DM here (it doesn't let me respond), OR email me: imagineabetterworld2020@gmail.comToday I'm honored to have back on the show: Satanic ritual abuse & MK Ultra survivor and whistleblower, mother, spiritual coach, child abuse and trauma advocate and educator, entrepreneur and owner of Positive Shifting, and self directed learner, Caylen HartwellIn case you're new here or missed Caylen's first episode we aired a couple years ago, here is a short overview of what we discussed: Caylen - once known as Kathy Collins -  was born into the shadows of a multi-generational ritual abuse and incest family. Caylen, like so many brave voices on this show, grew up under the illusion of a "mostly normal" family. Beneath the surface, however, whispers of dysfunction lingered in her memory. But it wasn't until adulthood - sparked by an unexpected encounter with TMJ - that the floodgates of buried truths began bursting open. Life as she knew it would begin shattering, leading her to discover the truth about the other side of the double-life she lived growing up. What emerged after this breakdown was a courageous break-through of remembrance, healing, and empowerment. And through her transformative work with Positive Shifting, Caylen now lights the way for other survivors, offering education, coaching, and a roadmap to wholeness.Trauma is a universal thread woven into the fabric of every human life, varying only in its shades and intensities. Yet, how astonishing it is that this profound force remains shrouded in mystery - even to the most learned minds. Therapists, counselors, and psychiatrists, for instance, are rarely versed in the realities of Dissociative Identity Disorder or the chilling depths of satanic ritual abuse. Caylen stands as a fearless bridge across this chasm of ignorance, guiding everyone - from survivors of MK ULTRA to therapists, and even those wrestling with the everyday weight of being human - toward a path of turning pain and trauma into beauty and purpose. With wisdom and grace, she unravels the intricate layers of trauma embedded in our bodies and spirits, revealing pathways to healing that are as revolutionary as they are liberating.The last time Caylen was on, we discussed some of her upbringing, her remembrance of her memories, and dove deep into journey of healing and in becoming a professional healer. Today, we will be diving even deeper into Caylen's story, including digging in more to her family history, her life in ‘the program', UAPs, UFOs, aliens and their relationship to MK ULTRA, her journey to healing, and so much more.CONNECT WITH CAYLEN:Website: Spiritual Coaching | Positive Shifting | United States Instagram: Caylen Hartwell (@caylenhartwell) • Instagram photos and videosTwitter: (2) Caylen (@CaylenHartwell) / TwitterCAYLEN'S RECOMMENDED LINKS:Dream Dictionary referenced in the interview:Dream Dictionary: Crisp, Tony: 9780760765357: Amazon.com: BooksITNJ Judicial Commission on Human Trafficking:Human Trafficking and Child Sex Abuse - Judicial Commission of Inquiry (itnj.org)Interview with Kristy Allen on SRA and MK Ultra:Kristy Allen ~ MK Ultra, SRA Survivor (ITNJ Seating) - YouTube(not all of the testimonies are available regrettably)CONNECT WITH THE IMAGINATION:All links: https://direcSupport the show

In this podcast, Dr. Glenn Clark examines the relationship between adolescent bruxism (teeth grinding) and TMJ disc displacement. He explains how increased deep sleep in adolescents leads to more micro-arousals and frequent bruxism, creating repetitive strain on the TMJ's lateral collateral ligament. Over time, this stress causes ligament deformation and laxity, compromising joint stability and resulting in disc displacement. Podcast created using Notebook LM.

Rather than pouring resources into passive marketing channels, we explore how becoming an integral part of your community can lead to sustained patient acquisition. From partnerships with schools, gyms, and community centers, we delve into how connecting with organizations that matter to your target audience can establish you as the trusted local dental provider. Schools, with their network of families, present a multitude of opportunities, whether through PTA involvement, educational workshops, or sports team collaborations. Gyms and community centers are also massively valuable, where offering services like free oral health screenings can cultivate trust and lead to steady referrals.You'll hear a captivating case study of a dentist from the Ground Marketing Course who leveraged these strategies with exceptional success, achieving remarkable patient growth and slashing marketing costs. By emphasizing social proof, consistent partner engagement, and maintaining strong relationships, this approach not only brings in new patients but also fortifies your practice's reputation as a community asset.What You'll Learn in This Episode:Techniques for creating impactful partnerships in your community.How schools can serve as a hub for patient acquisition.The importance of value-first strategies in gym partnerships.Ways to leverage community centers for trust and exposure.Tactics for building a robust referral system.Insights from a successful case study in ground marketing.The role of social proof in enhancing reputation.Methods for sustaining long-term partnerships for ongoing growth.Press play to learn how local partnerships can revolutionize your practice and boost patient growth!‍‍Learn More About the Ground Marketing Course Here:Website: https://thedentalmarketer.lpages.co/the-ground-marketing-course-open-enrollment/‍Other Mentions and Links:‍Businesses/Brands:PlexCrossFitDymatize ProteinMuscle MilkBig Brother Big Sisters of America‍Software/Tools:Excel‍If you want your questions answered on Monday Morning Episodes, ask me on these platforms:My Newsletter: https://thedentalmarketer.lpages.co/newsletter/The Dental Marketer Society Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/2031814726927041‍Episode Transcript (Auto-Generated - Please Excuse Errors)‍Michael: All right, we're going to be talking about building local partnerships that matter. So that's the key word here is that matter. Sometimes it's easy to build local partnerships with, other potential businesses or locations that aren't as important as. It should be to you or they really just don't matter.we'll see what I mean by that the episode goes along, but why partnerships? So most dentists rely on passive marketing ads. SEO, social media, but local partnerships allow you to integrate into the daily lives of your target audience. So instead of spending thousands on marketing, you become the community's trusted dental provider by leveraging existing relationships.This isn't just about getting your name out. It's about becoming the go to dentist in your town. That's the goal here, the go to dentist. So we're going to be discussing that throughout this time and how to do that. But like I always mentioned, if you want the scripts, you want the videos, you want the in depth, more of all of this, the templates.And if you want more one on one time with myself and my team. Any questions or concerns with the crowd marketing, then please feel free to join the ground marketing course, we continue to add to that course. It's an amazing course. It's going to be, in the show notes below.There's a link there. It's the first link in the show notes below. So definitely go check it out and just go check out everything you can see inside of the course and check out what everybody else is getting and the results that they're seeing and how it's improving their, practice their community.Let's dive into this, understanding the psychology of local partnerships. Now to truly embed, and that's the key here. You need to understand how and why local decision makers agreed to partnerships. And that's the key. You want to embed yourself into the community, but let's understand how and why local decision makers agree to partnerships. There's three ways. Number one is, people don't promote businesses, they promote relationships.A gym owner won't push your services unless they genuinely like and trust you. A school principal won't let you do a talk unless they see value for their students and parents. And a community director won't recommend you unless you make their job easier. Promote relationships, okay? Remember this principle, the principle of reciprocity.Give before you ask before asking for referrals, offer something of high value, make it feel like a favor. So for example, a gym owner is more likely to refer patients. If you offer something for free to their athletes, first, Or you want to give something where that benefits them first and it doesn't have to be, Hey, we're offering free whining.Would you like free whining? No. It can be, Hey, do you have any business cards? I'd love to give it to our patients. We're doing a health and wellness thing this month and we'd love to have your information in our hygiene kits. That's perfect. They're like, yes, more clients, more business.Yeah. I love to do that. You're offering first and then three positioning, right? Embed, don't sell. Okay. That's how you want to position. Instead of saying, can I promote my practice here, which from this point on, I never want you to do that, right? Can I promote my practice here?No. You want to notice the pain points, right? Hey, I noticed many gym members struggle with teeth grinding, right? I have a lot of patients who come to this gym and they, suffer from teeth grinding and I'd love to help your athletes with some free night guards. Or maybe there's kids in your school that are high risk for cavities and you say, quite a bit of kids come to my practice in this school and they're high in cavities and I'd love to do a, you fun presentation about oral health and nutrition.Or you can say many of your community members may be unaware of oral cancer if you're at a senior home, right? Can I do free screenings at your next health event? Would that be okay? You're making people's job easier. You're showing that you care. There's a principle of reciprocity and you're promoting relationships.So the goal is to position yourself as a valuable asset. Not an advertiser. I want you to get out of the mindset of, Oh my God, I got to promote my practice, I guess, get all these new patients. I got to meet production, get collection, get paid profits. And I want you to position yourself as a valuable asset.Okay. I am an asset to the community, which means my practice is a humongous asset to this community. Let me show them position yourself. And so how are you going to do that as we're going to kind of, scratch the surface on three main things, schools, gyms, and fitness centers, and then community centers.Okay. And then we're going to discuss how to make these partnerships self sustaining. And I'm going to give you a case study, an example of how this worked for a practice member. So. number two right, school is the most powerful and overlooked partnership. Schools are an ultimate hub of families.They have parents, kids, and teachers all in one place, and this is a gold mine for patient acquisition. Many times we go after the kids and we forget about the parents, or we go after the kids and the parents and then we forget about the teachers. We go after the kids, parents, and teachers, and we forget about the staff besides the teachers.I mean, There's a lot of people there, unless you're a pediatric practice, right? But there's a lot of people there who are not your patients who can become your patients. Definitely keep that in mind. Schools already have a health and wellness mandate. If you align with their mission, they will welcome you.Just figure it out. And I'm going to discuss how you can do that right now. And then three, schools have high trust in medical professionals, meaning your practice gains instant credibility. You want to be the go to practice for emergencies. But also the go to practice for whatever comes to top of mind when it's oral or dental related for these teachers, staff, and so forth, the schools.Schools are the ultimate hub of families, understand that. Now, understanding key decision makers in schools. There's a couple. There's the PTA president, they control parents, engagement programs. There's the school nurse, handle student health and make, good referrals. Three, principal, obviously, right?They approve in school partnerships. Four is the athletic director. They manage sports programs. It's perfect for those mouth guard campaigns. And then five, after school program coordinator, right? They organize extracurricular activities. So these are like the five ones. Now, if you want to go above and beyond, contact The school district in your town. to be honest with you. That's what I go for right from the back is I contact the school district. I even go inside the school district facility, where it's just the district pocket up with the people there because they oversee not just one school, right?They oversee multiple schools in the whole district. So, If you get cool with them, you're going to be able to get cool with those other schools, right? school nurse, principal, athletic director, afterschool program coordinator, their boss is. if you're able to contact the school district, get an amazing partnership with them, get them to come to your practice, the people in the district, then everything else pretty much becomes easy peasy from that point on.And in the ground marketing course, I show you how I do that contact the school district. And I give you the script and everything like that, but I also give you the script for you know, the principals and the school nurses, wellness directors, and things like that, because you can do that as well.Cause sometimes the district will tell you, we'll contact the principal and then. They will let you know. But like I said, in the course, there's so much more detail with all of this. I'm kind of just scratching the surface for everything. Cause I want you to get just a bit right now. So those are the people you can contact.They're the key decision makers. Anybody else besides that? You're just talking to someone who thinks they a decision maker, but they're not. And you may get a no from someone who that no doesn't even matter. And so what I mean by that is maybe they may say, no, you cannot come in here. And that was like the administration office.It don't even matter what they say, if the principal says yes, then, all you did was just contact the wrong person and got the wrong answer, which happens so often. So I need you to understand that you have to contact decision makers, not anybody else, not the front office, not the person answering the phones.Reach out to these people. PTA president, school nurse, principal, athletic director, afterschool program coordinator, the district, right? Reach out to them because they will most likely give you a yes. And if they do perfect, but if it's anybody else, they may give you a no, cause they don't know the answer.And now you're just not attempting to go anymore because you talked to the wrong person who doesn't even know what they're doing. So I would hate for that to happen to you. So understand the key decision makers. That's huge. Then the next step is tactics for breaking into schools or like getting into schools.So the PTA approach, the parent network hack, right? You want to attend PTA meetings, introduce yourself as a resource, not a salesperson. Offer a 10 minute talk, right? With free giveaways for kids. Propose a parent education night, examples, you can do a cavities and nutrition, what every parent needs to know, what I like to do is offer something, where every attendee can come to my practice, So offer free whitening coupon, offer something specific where you know they will come into your practice. You can also do the next approach, which is the school nurse connection. This is a referral pipeline. So offer to train the school nurse on dental emergencies. You also want to provide free dental first aid kits that can be like gauze, floss, mouth rinse, referral sheet to your office.Provide these to the schools. I cannot tell you how crucial this is, to getting new patients. Hey, instead of hygiene kits, which you can just break apart a hygiene kit, And then make it into a free dental first aid kit for the school nurses. Hey, here's free dental first aid kits. We'd like to give it to our schools.We want to make sure you guys are stocked and ready to go for this season. Let me know if you need more at any moment. I will come by maybe like in a month or so. you need any more, but also here's the signup sheet to refer, here's also our number and we always can come by like every, month or so to pick up the signup sheet to see if there's any names or numbers or anything like that that gives you like more opportunity to show your face in front of them, but at the same time, more opportunity to drop off free dental first aid kits for the children.And at the same time, it gives you more, of an opportunity to drop off more referral sheets or maybe pick up the referral signup sheet and see the names and numbers. Great. But most likely they will call you and refer you that way, but that's huge. dental first aid kits huge, huge, huge. If you can start doing that today, if you haven't do that with the schools, you want to offer VIP fast pass for urgent student cases, right?Whenever the nurse sees a dental issue, they call your office directly and you can get a same day appointment. So make that a huge thing. Okay. Like, Hey, if you ever have an emergency, here's the same day appointment pass. Okay. Like, Just let us know it's from you. You can also sponsor school events. That's visibility on steroids.I mean, Sports teams, they offer free custom mouth guards. You can do that. Career days, give a talk on what it's like to be a dentist, instant credibility with parents right there. Teacher appreciation provided teacher smile program, maybe discounted whitening or priority scheduling. They always have teacher appreciation.See how you can participate in that. Don't just let that slide make those teachers come to your practice. Be a part of the teacher appreciation program and then offer something specific just for the teachers. That's a humongous gift. And then you can have like library and reading incentives. This happens a lot.I a sponsor of for smiles, challenge kids who read 10 books, get specific goody bag, right? Like a dental hygiene kit just for them with fun stuff in it. And also information about your practice, things like that and so forth. And then you can also do summer camp and afterschool programs.You want to offer a free dental checkup day at summer camps possible. And then you can have school fundraising and referral loops. So you can offer a free dental day where a percentage of proceeds goes to school programs. Create a referral contest where the class with the most referrals wins a pizza party.Make it fun, when you're getting these referrals and you want to have them be a part of it. You can also donate a portion of every referred new patients. First visit fee back to the school as well. That's a huge way to support the school and they're going to continue to refer and so forth.So this is for school. Schools are huge. Gyms and fitness centers. That's the secret to high value patients. Gyms are huge. This is something I started. This was one of my first ever locations I went to ground market to and have yet to stop. It's incredible. They're health conscious people. That value wellness.Many gym goers suffer from teeth grinding or dry mouth and acid erosion from fitness drinks. And then trainers and gym owners are influencers. If they trust you, they will refer their entire client base. So how can you establish that? The gym owner angle, the business partnership play, You want to approach the gym owner, not as a dentist, but as a business owner.Always. They're on the lookout to get clients. You're on the lookout to get patients. So offer a value exchange, right? Go in there, offer free oral health screening days for gym members, discounted whitening for trainers, things like that. What I like to do, honestly, is keep it simple. I just, hey, can I have some of your information?I love to put it in my hygiene kits. And then say, why, maybe you're off, you're doing something that month or you want to partner up with them, They'll be ecstatic. And then at the same time, Hey, by any chance, can I give you guys some of our information as well? Yeah, cool. Awesome. And then drop off a signup sheet for the employees and the trainers there.Hey, this month, we wanted to give you guys just the employees here, this boom. And then from that point on, you're able to do more. Now, like I said, in the course, we dive way deeper in gym. So you can go ahead and check that out and become a member of the ground marketing course there. And then you want to do campaign for athletes.If this is like a specific location, like Plex, that's a gym in Texas. I remember it was just for athletes or any other type of gym. That's just for athletes, like weightlifters and CrossFit athletes. You can provide night guards, yoga practitioners. You can do something where mindfulness and oral health connection, cyclists and runners, hydration and oral health education.This one was huge bodybuilders. acidic protein shakes and enamel damage prevention. Now something we did this is what I think personally will be incredible that you should do on social media. There's a hundred and one protein shakes, a hundred and one, pre workouts, post workouts, intro workouts, all these things.How bad is each of them or how good is each of them for your oral health, How do we take this? Do we take it just with water? Some people just take it straight. I've taken it just straight and then pour water Later on how should this be taken and then rate each of them like make a video for each today, we're checking out.I don't know Diametized protein see how bad it is good it is for your teeth depending on the ingredients and then you're tasting it and then boom Okay, this is not that bad one out of ten. It's gonna be like a four and then you do muscle milk Oh, man, this has arsenic. It has lead has cadmium. Not only is it bad for your oral health, but it's also bad for this.This is a, definitely a one I do not recommend, right? Kind of A thing like that. Make videos like that. Trust me, Nobody's done it yet, So if I were you, if you are into that, this is something I'd attack and I would say, okay, we're going to do this campaign.We're going to do a hundred videos, different proteins. Right. doesn't have to be all in one day. It can be, you know, within year's worth if you want, but. Make sure you, become known as that. And then not only are you niching down on a specific target audience, which is bodybuilders who are people who care about their physique, they care about how they look and things like that.They care about their health, but at the same time, you're helping them prevent an enamel damage. So that's something to think about. And then you can also do sponsorships like at local CrossFit competitions hydration stations at 5k races or marathons, and then exclusive gym membership. You can have the trainer referral incentive.I know this is something we did. Any gym trainer that refers five patients, it's something specific. In our practice, sometimes they wanted a percentage off where they wanted, Invisalign or they even wanted just rewinding. As much as they could, right? And so we would offer that depending on how many they refer.And then eventually they just continue to refer without, getting any type of incentive, which is fantastic. So you can definitely do that. And then you can always participate in their events as well, which they have a lot of events all the time, gyms and fitness centers. So huge, huge, huge. And then, finally would be community centers the trust builder.Now this is just an example, right? There's many locations you can go to gyms corporations, salons, all these things. But. For this episode, I'm just going to be covering, like I said, schools, gyms, and community centers, and then I'm going to give you a case study of someone who attacked these three and the results that they got.finally this community centers and community centers are crucial. They serve families, seniors, low income individuals. I mean, There's a huge patient segment and community centers already have structured health programs, so you can seamlessly integrate. They have established trust. People trust community based recommendations over ads.Michael: Now, the best community partnerships, best hands down is senior centers and retirement homes. I mean, They offer a ton of stuff and there's somebody specifically there who's called the activities coordinator or director who's looking for you to do things for their seniors, for their residents.You can offer free oral cancer screenings. You can host dentures and implant Q& A sessions. You can provide a senior smile program, which is a dental discount for seniors. Your membership program, you can offer a ton of stuff. Best thing to do though, is just do a Q& A session. Once one or two of them start asking questions, the whole room is going to ask questions.And it's just up to you to coordinate it to guide the questions and answer them. And you'll notice a theme of the questions, and then you can create a program tailored just for them. If you would like, so that's something best community partnerships, senior homes, and we have a whole unit on senior centers, independent living facilities, retirement homes.You can even see me in real life doing the strategy, setting up at events, signing up people and so forth, beautiful location. love senior homes. I love working with them. It's fantastic. But like I said, strategies, scripts, templates. Live examples. You can see that in the ground marketing course, doing it there.So that's number one, Senior centers and retirement homes. The next one would be youth centers and afterschool programs, right? Partner with big brother, big sisters. You can offer free checkups, sponsor sports leagues. If you'd like create a smile scholarship for underprivileged kids. So like X dollar amount per new patient goes into a dental fund for them, right?Specific things like that. And so that's going to be it right there, right? Kind of On how you can do that with community centers. So how to make these partnerships self sustaining You want to leverage social proof and community testimonials? So always capture video testimonials from gym owners pta leaders and community members and features success stories on social media And newsletters automate and scale your outreach So use a CRM to track partnerships and follow up quarterly.In the course created for you the ground marketing worksheet. And in there, it's just literally a template. You just download it on Excel and that's it. And you can see exactly how to follow up quarterly or often what you need to write down so forth, because you can lose track if you are not organized.So you want to automate and scale your outreach, track your partnerships, follow up, create a dedicated community liaison role. So assign a team member to manage partnerships. This is what business development is. You're going to see a lot of larger corporations, larger businesses. They have a business development, partner, a business development person in their organization, in their, job who's just dedicated to developing business partnerships. So sign that, and this can be the ground market. in your team and then recurring checkpoints with partners. You want to schedule quarterly check ins with school nurses, gym owners, and community leaders.And then you want to offer new partnership ideas to keep the collaboration fresh, and this comes naturally. So don't overthink it. This is going to come naturally. Every time he's like, Hey, I ran out of hygiene kits or, Hey, I ran out of first aid, dental health kits, or, Hey, I need some more of your business cards.Quarterly check ins happen naturally if it's the right partnership. Okay. So the best marketing doesn't feel like market. When you build partnerships, patients don't need to be sold on your services. They already trust you before they walk through the door. That's what partnerships do. .Now we're going to go into the case study. Now this doctor is a member in the course and she lives in a midsize suburban town and she struggled with slow new patient growth, despite a strong online presence.Instead of pouring more money into ads, she embedded her practice into the community using a strategic partnership approach. It took her a year. Within 12 months, she increased new patient flow, reduced marketing costs, but she built a self sustaining referral system with schools, gyms, and community centers.Here's exactly how she did it. Step one, schools, the long term growth machine. The plan is instead of cold emailing schools, she identified key decision makers and provided value up front. She attended PTA meetings and introduced herself as a community resource, not a business. She connected with school nurses and provided emergency dental first aid kits.She offered a free workshop for teachers about oral health's impact on kids focus. And attendance and the teacher saw that was incredibly valuable. So they wanted the parents to come and then eventually the parents came as well to see that. So that was a workshop that was offered and shown more than once.So that was tactic number one, PTA and school nurse relationship building. Number two was monthly school visits and parent education. She scheduled quarterly classroom visits. She brought fun tooth fairy kits for kindergarteners. She hosted a smile superhero contest for older kids could maintain the best brushing habits.And then she set up a free online dental Q and a for parents hosted on the school's Facebook page. Tactic number three, referral partnerships with school sports teams. She provided custom mouth guards for the local youth soccer and football teams branded with her office's logo. And then she created a VIP referral system.Every student referred by a school nurse or coach got priority scheduling and a free treat, a specific to what they needed. And the results were incredible. Over 400 new patient referrals in the first year, teachers and school staff became loyal patients after she provided an exclusive teacher discount.And the school sports partnerships created a word of mouth effect. Parents saw her logo on their kid's mouth guard cases and so forth. And kids knew who they were. was just amazing how the word of mouth effect happened here. So that was schools.Step two was gym partnerships. Which was a hidden gold mine. The plan was she identified three high end gyms and CrossFit boxes in her area and offered value first tactic. One gym trainer and member benefits. She offered free night guard fittings for trainers who suffer from teeth grinding. She gave each trainer five VIP dental passes worth a hundred dollars each to give to clients experiencing TMJ issues and Want to put a little asterisk here.besides free nightguard fittings. She offered for you teeth whitening So it was one or the other on that for the personal trainers and the gym members. She provided an exclusive fit smile package, teeth whitening, free fluoride treatment, discounted nightguards for heavy grinders, or an asterisk here too.She also offered a discount on cleanings. So that was the fitness smile package it wasn't like a whole type of, Hey, we're doing this as long as you remember, no, it was just, Hey, we're doing this for this summer only kind of a thing. So urgency was created. Tactic 2, gym event sponsorship, so she sponsored a gym hydration challenge, she tied hydration to oral health, she set up a free dental checkup day at the gym, and then she cross promoted her practices blog on the gym's website and social media.So the results were over 50 high value patients from gym trainers and referrals nightguards became a profitable service for her. And Jim started organically promoting her practice because she helped their members.So that was two, and then three was community centers. Instant trust and mass exposure. So she partnered with local senior centers, afterschool programs to gain instant community trust. So tactic one, the senior centers, the hidden patient base, she hosted free oral cancer screening events. She created a senior dental membership plan, right?So she discounted specific services. She became a guest speaker at community wellness talks, covering topics like how oral health affects brain function in seniors and much more. This was fantastic. She continues to do this. Tactic two, low income community dental support. She partnered with a local nonprofit organization to offer low cost cleanings.She created a dental scholarship fund where 10 from every new patient fee went toward helping undeserved kids, and then she hosted a free smile day. So every quarter for families who couldn't afford to care. And this established an incredible powerful reputation. As a dentist who gives back, she was able to obtain over 200 new patients from senior centers and community programs.And she was even featured in local newspapers and community newsletters for her charitable efforts. So that was free publicity. So it was fantastic. So scaling partnership into a self sustaining referral machine. she leveraged all of this through social proof and community testimonials. She filmed short video testimonials, school nurses about her educational talks.Jim trainers about how she helped their clients, senior center directors, praising her community involvement. And she posted these testimonials on social media and her website to reinforce credibility. I mean, You're doing all this work. Might as well go for the ask. Say, Hey, can you record a short 30 second video for me, please?You can even say 15 second video. Can you record a short 15 second video? boom. And then just record a short 15 second video on your phone. Little do you know that 15 second video will be up them talking about you for five minutes. Or three minutes, right? But that's it. That's all you got to say. So leverage it to create a community referral program.So any partner, right? School gym, community center that referred five plus patients got a special sponsorship for their events. So create something like that community centers and schools started reaching out to her instead of the other way around. So instead of her having to reach out to them.They started reaching out to her and three schedule, quarterly check ins with partners. Maintain these personal relationships with school staff, gym owners, and community leaders. Always ask, Hey, what would be most helpful to you right now? How can I help you or how can I help your members or how can I do this?How can I help your residents this quarter? Be specific like that. How can I help you guys this quarter? What are you guys doing? How can I help you? And then see how you can fulfill that need. And then offer new partnership ideas to keep engagement high. This will come naturally all the time.The new partnership ideas. So key takeaways for this is stop relying on hold ads and start embedding your practice into trusted community. Networks who is school gyms and community centers provide built in credibility and trust. If you offer value first three, once partnerships are established, referrals become self sustaining, establish these partnerships for social proof, testimonial from school nurses, gym owners, and community leaders, compounds growth five, less reliance on expensive marketing, more on relationships.will equal long term success. So I hope you understand, right? I'm not saying you need to do these three specific things. if you're a member in the ground marketing course, then you already know that you've done probably gyms. I know for sure you've done senior centers and then at the same time, schools, so you can attack it like that, And then continue to nurture these locations. But this is where her target patients were. And she wanted it. So we kind of extracted that and said, okay, let's look at the three strategies she mainly did and bada bing, bada boom. It's fantastic. So leveraging partnerships is key. The easiest way to grow a dental practice isn't by spending more on marketing.It's by becoming the dentist everyone in the community already trusts before they ever meet you. Always remember that creating these partnerships are huge, and in the ground marketing course, I teach you exactly how to do this. I teach you how to create these pipelines. So referrals are coming to you consistently, okay, for years, not just once in a while, but they're coming consistently and they're compounding.So then you just depend on, I need to nurture this relationship, or I just need to continue what I'm doing and the way I'm working and being fantastic. Because now they're referring to me, my referrals are referring other people. And that happens all the time. So you want to continue to build local partnerships that matter. And if you want more information on this, not just information, but strategies, you want to learn exactly how to do this, get the exact results or better. And at the same time, build partnerships with all your schools and your community, partnerships with all the gyms and fitness centers, partnerships with all the senior centers.You want to be a part of their events. You want to be a part of their. Specific health fairs, things like that. You want to create incredible referral systems and partnerships. I teach you all that in the ground marketing course. I give you the scripts, I give you the templates, I give you the examples, the lives, everything.And at the same time, you're able to talk with me more one on one. In the ground marketing course.

In this episode, Rachel walks us through her insane surgical journey—from bone saws to gold weights implanted in her eyelid, the facial paralysis that followed, and the emotional rollercoaster of waking up with a face that felt like someone else's. This is a story about identity, survival, and the body's wild ability to rebuild itself.Be sure to catch the full video version of this episode on YouTube!
