It has been a while since Bethany and Dr. Kuba have tackled the ugly topic of insurance. They jump right into tough topics in their first 2026 episode together! Insurance ranks at the top of their list. After a recent incident with a parent who was frustrated about insurance coverage (or lack, thereof), the situation was brought to Dr. Kuba’s attention and ultimately to Bethany’s attention as well. It reopened dialogue regarding the shenanigans of dental insurance. Listen in to this refreshed conversation!

There is no better way to kick things off in 2026 than to get some inspiration from nature – specifically from Bethany’s Nigerian Dwarf goats! In this episode, Bethany shares the lessons she has learned over the last couple of weeks as she has helped 7 of her goats get through birthing a total of 15 kids. Nature is a powerful teacher, so there are core lessons that we can ponder upon and ultimately incorporate into life and practice ownership.

Happy Holidays! With time off (hopefully) in the not-so-distant future, it is important that your patients AND team are prepared for any holiday closure time. Patients should ideally be made aware of any practice closures in advance. Emails, texts, or custom recorded voicemails are the best way to ensure that patients know you are closed AND know what to do if they have a dental emergency. Your team also needs to know the expectations for checking email, voicemail, and text messages while the practice is closed. Listen in to these reminders to ensure that you are fully prepared for any time off this week!

This time of year can be incredibly hard for dentists and practice owners because there are so many decisions to make when it comes to showing appreciation for team members. Should I do cash, a gift card, or a bonus through payroll? How much should I pay my team members? Should I do an equal amount or vary the amounts based on longevity? If we do a Holiday party, should I pay the team for the hours? All of the questions and more are covered by Dr. Kuba and Bethany in this episode. The end of the year is an important time to show appreciation, but there is much to consider and weigh out. So, listen in!

 It is that time of year – you have a list of things to do that is nearly a mile long. Your mind is scrambled, and you are trying to remember what you need to do for the practice and team to wrap up 2025 nicely. Dr. Kuba and Bethany are here to help! Together, they put together a list of their top year-end tips and reminders. Some of the items are easy to forget, like evaluating your fee schedule, while others are more challenging like evaluating your A/R trends. Nonetheless, this episode will help you maximize the last few weeks of this year to ensure that everything is checked off your list (and hopefully you don’t have to check it twice!).

It is not often that Bethany’s plans are usurped, but Dr. Jones pulls it off today. Bethany had teed up a completely different subject for today’s episode, but Dr. Jones had a different plan and turned the tables! He took a trip down memory lane and focused on the story of Bethany’s life, all of the nitty-gritty details that made Bethany squirm in her seat. As they reflect together, they marvel at how when we lean into our natural strengths, we can end up with a career that really does bring us joy. Grab your popcorn and listen to Bethany squirm on this one!
