The phrase “at the end of the tunnel” can be reminiscent of death. While this podcast isn’t about death itself, it often addresses the death of the part of ourselves that believes we don't have what we need in order to pursue our passion, our purpose, or our calling in life. It's a rebirth of what's truly important, which is saying yes to whatever is in our hearts. These conversations are about real people, with real obligations and real obstacles, that have somehow found the courage to say yes to what was in their heart. As a result, they found themselves on quite the adventure! This week's guest could be the poster child for that paradigm. Her name is Pam Grout, and she's a New York Times bestselling author, a travel blogger who has visited every continent except for Antarctica, and a student of A Course in Miracles. In this episode, Pam talks candidly about the loss of her daughter, the little rituals they shared, and how she has coped with the grief of her daughter’s passing. She shares the wisdom that she's gleaned from her adventures and from the rocky parts of her journey as well, because, even for those who know full well that we co-create our reality, life is still going to test us. Pam also describes her writing journey, the process of writing her bestseller, E-Squared, and her advice for those looking to write spiritual guidance books. Pam’s definition of success, after everything she has been through and after writing 20 books, is to see the face of God in every person she meets, and her whole story is incredibly inspiring, so make sure to tune in today!Key Points From This Episode:Pam’s favorite activity as a child was going to the library and reading.Listeners hear a bit more about Pam’s childhood, growing up in Kansas.If she wanted to achieve her dreams, Pam realized she had to come up with creative capital.Why Pam believes she always saw herself becoming a writer, even as a teenager.Pam’s first job at a newspaper and why she doesn’t consider herself a corporate person.What it meant to Pam to become a New York Times best-selling author.Choosing experiences over material things and becoming a travel writer in her 20s.Finding her spiritual foundation in a loving, benevolent force and learning to trust in it.Hearing God’s voice, questioning the source, and studying A Course in Miracles (ACIM).Pam provides a synopsis of what ACIM is and how it helped her choose a different path.How a psychic reading predicted her pregnancy and how Pam chose to see things differently.The affirmation or appeal to the universe Pam repeated when her daughter was a baby.Self-publishing Jumpstart Your Metabolism – why Pam decided to write that book.Links Mentioned in Today’s Episode:Pam Grout on TwitterPam Grout on LinkedInPam Grout on FacebookPam GroutA Course in MiraclesGod Doesn’t Have Bad Hair DaysTaz Grout’s 222 FoundationE-CubedLight Watkins

If something happened to your loved ones, is there a plan in place? Pam says COVID-19 has been a time where people are thinking about their estate planning more than ever. In this episode, Pam Maass dives deep into her law background, the importance of self-care, and her passion for women's empowerment, with Dax Hamman (Partner @ FIRESIDE).Pam has dedicated her career to advocating for and protecting children and families. As a former Felony Deputy District Attorney, Pam saw first-hand the challenges families face in the legal system. Pam founded Maass Law to empower families with a better approach. Pam also represents survivors of sexual assault and abuse with the challenges she saw first-hand for survivors when opposing powerful institutions and persons. Headquartered in Denver, Pam provides legal planning support to families and represents women throughout Colorado and is available to act as co-counsel for victims of sexual assault throughout the U.S. Regardless of where you live, Pam can help answer your questions or will listen if you need someone to talk to.In this episode, Pam Maas speaks about the inspiration behind her law career. Actually, her family wasn't super pumped when she decided to study law. Pam started her career as a District Attorney. On the first day of the job, Pam was sent to a crime scene and saw a dead body. The DA office is passionate about observing everything as much as they can – that's why the DA is often sent to a crime scene. One of Pam's passions is helping survivors after violence and sexual assault. There is a massive weight to living in that narrative - self-care is essential when you live in that world. Self-care isn't about doing a gigantic thing; it's about building a bank up inside of you. For instance, listening to music and talking a walk. So, when something intense happens, those actions can take the edge off.Mentally, it was challenging for Pam to take the entrepreneurial leap into private practice. It took a lot to get over her fear of personal and financial failure. However, Pam was able to muster up the courage and dive deep into her life's work. There is a lot of opportunity in law to find excitement in larger firms or on your own. In a lot of ways, the legal field is behind in the times on gender equity. Most women leave the legal profession within the first ten years. The women who don't leave will start their own law firms. A big motivator for Pam to start her firm was because she wanted a child. It didn't seem possible to stay at the big firm with a child. However, COVID-19 has allowed Pam to practice virtually – it has made being pregnant so much easier.Then, Pam talks about communication in her practice - most of Pam's clients have been very comfortable using Zoom. There is more of an urgency for estate planning during COVID-19. If something happens to your loved ones, then what is your plan? People have been starting to consider this more often and need assistance with their estate planning. There is so much that we can't control, but estate planning is something that we can. Pam always does estate planning with a couple – they need to consent to work together. Her background is in women's empowerment, so she attracts a lot of women to her practice. Sometimes, there is a more dominant person in the conversation when it comes to estate planning. It's Pam's job to let both people feel comfortable enough to speak up. Stay tuned as Pam dives deep into her business, about hiring business coaches, and how Pam markets her practice. In this Episode: About Pam Maass [ 0:20 ]What it’s like in the DA’s office [ 1:45 ]How Pam practices self-care [ 4:50 ]The transition to Pam’s private practice [ 7:00 ]Finding excitement in law [ 12:00 ]Pam’s typical customer [ 17:15 ]Estate planning with women  [ 21:20 ]About Pam’s business [ 26:15 ]Why Pam hired a business coach  [ 31:10 ]How often Pam engages with her coaches [ 36:30 ]How Pam markets her business [ 38:15 ]Quotes: “A silver lining of COVID-19 has been moving to virtual practice; it has gone really well, and my clients love it.”“People are more motivated to get their estate plans in place during this time.”“My process is aimed to bring people together.”“I notice how much my mindset played a role in my achievements.”“I need all the coaches!”“Go all in and trust yourself.”Links Mentioned: Maass LawFind PamFollow Pam on InstagramFIRESIDE for small business marketingS’Mores, By FIRESIDEDownload Waking Up app

This week Michelle and Andrew continue their 4-part cariology series, where they consult with the experts on how to properly diagnose, treat and prevent cavities that makes up so much of our profession. Returning for part two is Pam Maragliano-Muniz, Editor-in-Chief of Inside Dental Hygiene, the owner of Salem Dental Arts, and an experienced prosthodontist/hygienists.  In this episode, Pam breaks down how she categorizes and treats patients by risk, discusses the importance of documenting each patient, and explains the counterintuitive impact sealants have on caries.

QUOTES: “I can’t express enough that we have to get patients to own their problems.” “Whatever is something that is doable for you—every single patient, every single appointment—I say just do it.” “If you are using arginine as part of your protocols and you’re having amazing luck with, I say do it!” “If they’re subconsciously drawn to beverages, snacks, foods, it’s oftentimes the body seeking more salivary flow.” “At the end of the day if the patient says ‘no,’ we really need to document that.” LINKS: Pam’s email: senoritadiente100@gmail.com Pam on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drpamela_maraglianomuniz/ Inside Dental Hygiene: https://idh.cdeworld.com/ IDH on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/insidedentalhygiene/   Mouthwatch is the official sponsor the Cariology Series this month.
