Tyler brings George Hariri on as they celebrate one year of The Pursuit of Ownership being on air! They talk about the concepts that have become most valuable to our clients, how to know if you're a solo vs. group practice owner, and the ins and outs of fear and discomfort. Plus, how to buy a practice for GROWTH; not size (equity is key).

Richard Lam joins us today! Having built a dental startup in the middle of the 2020 craziness, Richard Lam brings his experience in design frustrations, building a social-media-worthy office from the ground up, and the details of blowing up on TikTok! @Dr.RichardLam on TikTok

Dr. Alex Sharp, head of Mastermind at Shared Practices, joins Matt today. He uproots meaningful topics discovering your own preferences; feeling overwhelmed with staff, patients, and family; plus, ways to improve a lacking hygiene department.

Real-student-fake-name "Payton" joins Tyler today. This young and ambitious dental student shows us a practice as we investigate his hesitations about buying right out of school. He has an ideal practice in his head. After discussing this one in detail...will it be the one?

Some people do an acquisition. Some people do a startup. Dr. Skylor Morton is crazy enough to do both. Today we talk unemployability, helping patients recover from bad experiences, and the nightmare scenario of a flooded office!

George and Matt reconvene after the new year to bring practicing dentists valuable Q&A. Sourcing from his ongoing Dentaltown thread, George is asked: What do you have to do to remove yourself, clinically? Also: Will books help me be a better leader? How do you implement Traction to run your office? dt.sharedpractices.com

Dr. Husnain Shahid returns, continuing the digest of his ownership journey. He outlines key details of the deal with his seller, tells about his new-owner staff turnover, and warns us with a red flag his lawyer saw on the seller contract.

Continuing our season on Growth, we welcome Dr. Matthew Standridge. Through trial and error, he's grown in a variety of ways. Today we talk the evolution of his Ortho Foundation course, his fortunate fall into multi-practice ownership, and why it absolutely did not work out--at first.

Richard, George, Matt, and Tyler--the primary hosts of each of our segments--combine forces to lay out the history of Shared Practices. More importantly, we take a look into the future of ownership for young dentists.
