TONIGHT 🔥🔥🔥🔥 👇👇👇 in the Nifty Thrifty FB group!

Webinar Wednesday is Back!
Are you a dental professional feeling unfulfilled or like you're meant for more?
Join us tonight for an inspiring webinar with Shawn Zajas, Founder of Zana. Shawn will share his vision for the future of dentistry—which promises to become even more remarkable in the next 5-10 years—and challenge you to step up and be part of pioneering that positive change.
He'll discuss overcoming the problems that hold us back from innovation—like fear of the unknown, limiting beliefs from past pain, the tension of taking risks, and more. If you're eager to unlock your full potential and make a more meaningful impact on the dental field, this is an event you won't want to miss.
When: 4/3 @ 7pm CST

Was honored to have the gifted writer, Maggie Augustyn, write a piece on me in Dentistry Today.

I remember meeting Maggie and finding it interesting how thoughtful she was about life.

But it wasn't until I interviewed her that I discovered the complexing and depth to this clinician, writer, artist, intellectual and philosopher that is Maggie.

Happy Tuesday... Here's to keeping the dream alive 🔥💪🏻

Self-Care Away from the Dental Chair
1 in 5 adults in America experience mental illness, and those in the dental community are no exception.
