Hygiene Happy Hour (Jamaica Edition) with Misty Mattingly, Jaimee Sixty and Rafeal Rondon
Live from the Summit We're poolside in Jamaica for a special live episode of Hygiene Happy Hour, recorded at the Hygiene Leadership Summit 2.0 hosted by Clarify! Misty's sipping and chatting with two incredible guests who prove that hygiene leadership is all about community, mentorship, and never losing that hunger to grow. First up: Jamie, a hygienist from Wisconsin who's been on a mentorship journey with Misty for nearly a year. They get real about what it actually takes to step out of the chair and into leadership, reading lists (hello, The Way of the Shepherd and Crucial Conversations), Sunday accountability calls, and the difference between being pushed and being led. Then Misty's longtime friend and OG hygiene leadership pioneer Raphael Rondon pulls up the mic for a walk down memory lane, from "Chief Hygiene Administrators" before "Director of Hygiene" was even a title, to building some of the first comprehensive care programs in the country two decades ago. Plus, a taste test you didn't know you needed: Misty puts Smile Sip to the test live, talking through why it's a game-changer for caregivers, kids, and anyone looking for an easier path to a cleaner smile. Grab your cup, pull up a chair, and join the conversation, this one's full of heart, hustle, and hygiene wisdom straight from paradise.

Hygiene Happy Hour with (Jamaica Edition) Misty Mattingly & Mandy Dennis
Live from the summit! In this episode, Misty sits down with returning guest Mandy — hygiene leader, children's book author, and creator of a game-changing scheduling model — to talk about what makes this gathering feel less like a conference and more like a true working summit. Mandy breaks down her practice's unique 7-to-7 schedule, including weekend hours and a built-in two-hour lunch designed around real patient behavior, and explains how it's helped her retain hygienists by giving them full-time benefits on a 3-day work week. The conversation also touches on balancing motherhood and career without sacrificing either, growing a 12+ office DeNovo practice (with a few acquisitions in the mix), and why solving the hygienist shortage might be less about headcount and more about appointment availability. Plus, Mandy shares a peek into her children's book, I Spy With My Little Eye at the Dentist, designed to turn a child's first dental visit into an adventure instead of an appointment.

Hygiene Happy Hour (Jamaica Edition) with Misty Mattingly and Brittany Lonas
This episode, Misty sits down with Brittney Lonas, Director of Hygiene at Gen4 Dental Partners, for an unfiltered, beachside conversation about leadership, voice, and what it really means to think for yourself in dentistry. Brittney opens up about her journey from "people-pleaser by nature" to a leader who isn't afraid to call out generalizations in the room even when it's uncomfortable. The two dig into a question that's stuck with hygienists for generations: is the instinct to agree, to defer, to say "right, right" instead of speaking up rooted in being a woman, or in being conditioned as a dental hygienist who's historically been told what to do rather than asked what she thinks? Brittney shares how she's learned to pause, digest, and ask herself "is that really my thought?" before falling into autopilot agreement and why pushing back on easy generalizations (like "nobody recommends fluoride") matters for moving the profession forward. A candid, off-the-cuff conversation about authority, perspective, and finding your own voice in dental hygiene.
