Everyone Has Their Own Everest to Climb
<p>In this episode, Dr. Martin Mendelson and Dr. Kyle Stanley tackle the lack of empathy showing up in the dental community toward colleagues who are struggling. The data isn't subtle: dentists are 17 times more likely to die by suicide than the general population. Two and a half times more likely to suffer from anxiety and depression. That's not a mindset problem. That's a profession in pain.</p><p>Kyle admits he used to be that guy — the one who thought struggling dentists just weren't working hard enough. Then burnout hit. He was on the 5-yard line with every advantage, and still fumbled the ball. That's the point.</p><p>Not everyone's Everest looks the same. The phrase comes from Martin's friend Sean Swarner — a man who climbed Mount Everest with one functioning lung after surviving two unrelated cancers before age 18. Everyone is climbing something. The least we can do is not mock the people still on the way up.</p><p>If someone in your life is struggling, be the person who shows up.</p><p>For more info or to join their live CE course, go to <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="http://www.wellnessindentistry.com">www.wellnessindentistry.com</a></p><p>Join Carabelli Club here and save $600 on your yearly membership: <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://hubs.la/Q03QQGmD0">https://hubs.la/Q03QQGmD0</a></p><p>If you'd like to chat with Martin about disability insurance, you can click here to find a time on his calendar.

The Emotional Cost of Being the Responsible One
<p>Being the responsible one in dentistry isn't just exhausting. It's expensive — emotionally.</p><p>In this episode, Dr. Martin Mendelson and Dr. Kyle Stanley dig into why dental practice owners carry so much weight, and how much of that weight is self-imposed. You're the clinician, the CEO, the problem-solver, and the last line of defense — all at once. No wonder you're waking up at 5am worrying about Mrs. Jones at 9.</p><p>The good news: a lot of this is fixable. Kyle breaks down why most dental practices are structured like a flat line instead of a pyramid — and what happens when you actually empower a lead assistant and an office manager to handle 95% of the problems before they reach you. Martin walks through his "treatment plan" approach to stress: identify the stressors, assess how long they take, and make a real decision about what to delegate, automate, or hand off.</p><p>Then there's the simple but underrated power of capture. Write it down. Put it somewhere. Stop keeping it all between your ears. Because the emotional cost of being responsible shrinks dramatically when you stop relying on memory and start relying on systems.</p><p>You're responsible for a lot. But probably not as much as you think.</p><p>For more info or to join their live CE course, go to<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="http://www.wellnessindentistry.com"> www.wellnessindentistry.com</a></p><p>Join Carabelli Club here and save $600 on your yearly membership:<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://hubs.la/Q03QQGmD0"> https://hubs.la/Q03QQGmD0</a></p><p>If you'd like to chat with Martin about disability insurance, you can<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://calendly.com/metamorphcoach/45-minute-business-meeting"> click here</a> to find a time on his calendar.

The ADA Not Supporting DSOs
<p>The ADA announced it's pulling back support for DSOs. The internet lost its mind. Kyle and Martin didn't.</p><p>In this episode, Dr. Kyle Stanley and Dr. Martin Mendelson break down what the ADA's shift actually means — and what it doesn't. The ADA is a for-profit business. DSOs aren't all created equal. And dental insurance is a defined benefit plan, not insurance. We've done a terrible job letting people call it otherwise.</p><p>But here's what really gets Kyle fired up: dentists who complain about insurance reimbursements while staying in network. A dentist in Fresno went out of network, lost 50% of his patients, and now takes home 20% more. Do the math before you say you can't.</p><p>The real message: stop spending energy on things you can't control. Don't like the ADA? Cancel your membership. Hate your reimbursements? Drop the plan. Dentistry has more models, niches, and paths than almost any profession out there. Pick one and go.</p><p>Complaining on the internet is not a strategy.</p><p>For more info or to join their live CE course, go to <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="http://www.wellnessindentistry.com">www.wellnessindentistry.com</a></p><p>Join Carabelli Club here and save $600 on your yearly membership: <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://hubs.la/Q03QQGmD">https://hubs.la/Q03QQGmD</a></p><p>If you'd like to chat with Martin about disability insurance, you can click here to find a time on his calendar.
