“Dentists, we have a really sucky job at times. Letting one another know we care can make a world of difference.” – Dr. Chad Johnson
Brief Overview:
Running a practice, leading a team, balancing family, and trying to maintain your own health can leave little room for anything else. In this episode, Regan and Chad strip things down to the essentials: what’s one thing you can do right now to move toward better balance, better health, or stronger relationships? From mouth taping to sending a simple text, they show how small choices create a big impact.
What This Episode Reveals:
• Why waiting for “perfect timing” is keeping you stuck
• The overlooked value of micro-decisions in daily life
• How encouragement from friends can spark powerful momentum
What You’ll Learn:
• How to identify the one change you’ve been avoiding
• Why community and friendship matter more than balance
• Practical tips (like sleep hacks and allergy relief) that help you show up stronger
If This Sounds Familiar:
• You’ve been putting off something simple for months
• You feel isolated in your role as a dentist or business owner
• You tell yourself you’ll make changes “someday,” but someday never comes
Next Steps:
Make one decision today. Call a friend. Send that text. Try that new habit. Then share your “one thing” with Regan at regan@productivedentist.com.
