October is Dental Hygiene Awareness month, and while most realize the importance of healthy teeth and gums, many might not fully appreciate all the ways what’s going on in the mouth impacts other aspects of our health. I was delighted to be joined by Megan DeWalt, to explore all the things. She covers the basics and introduces us to myofunctional therapy, a non-invasive protocol that resolves many of the issues we’ve grown accustomed to dealing with every day. I was so fascinated I signed up for a session with her to learn more about myself with a myofunctional therapy comprehensive exam, and all I can say is WOW. I hope to have Megan back for a follow up episode because this information must be shared! In the meantime, schedule an appointment for yourself.

Polly Letofsky gives new meaning to the phrase, “going for a walk.” At age 12 she had a big hairy idea to walk around the world and kept this a secret until her mid 30s, when she realized time was running out to get it done. Being a champion for breast cancer awareness and support, Polly embarked on a world tour that resulted in a lifetime of treasures. Her conversation with Michelle offers a tiny glimpse of her experience and a robust view of all that was earned and learned along the way.
