All of the top level athletes have coaches. Many have multiple. But when it comes to our careers, our business and our lives we tend to take it all on ourselves without asking for the help we need.
If we really think about this, it doesn’t make sense. And talking with Brett Churnin really hits home for me in this episode.
Brett has been coaching dentists with Prime Practice for over 17 years. His passion and effectiveness in what he does really shows through in this discussion. We even get into the weeds with something I’ve been wanting to change for a while, incidentally highlighting the accountability factor a good coach can provide.
If you’re wondering – yes, I did trial my new way of presenting photos to patients (but decided it was not better!) and yes Brett did follow up!
Enjoy the insights from someone who has been passionately serving the dental industry for decades.
