Laura and Leanna are back for Episode 2 of The Horton Hangout — and it’s packed with laughs, honesty, and their signature segments: The Banned Word, The Confession, and The Horton Hangout Question! 🎧

As summer wraps up, the pair talk candidly about surviving the long school holidays, juggling work-from-home chaos, and the reality of balancing business with family life ☀️👩‍👦.

This week’s Banned Word will make every dental professional stop and think — why the word “injection” has no place in the surgery chair! 🚫💉

Then, in The Horton Hangout Question, they tackle a tough listener dilemma about inappropriate comments from a colleague — and share supportive, empowering advice for anyone facing similar behaviour in practice. 💬💪

It’s real, relatable, and full of humour — classic Horton energy from start to finish.
