Episode Notes
I just got back from a weekend in Wimberley, Texas, and what I witnessed at a little breakfast joint might change how you think about leadership, team training, and systems. In this 5 Minute Friday, I break down how a tiny café—with no consultants, no fancy software, and no orthodontic experience—ran circles around what I’ve seen in some of our most beautiful, expensive offices.
This episode isn’t about fancy technology or elaborate org charts. It’s about the basics: communication, training, and leadership. I share a personal story that made me stop and reflect on where most practices—including mine—drop the ball, and what you can do this week to start fixing it. If you think your systems are “dialed in,” this episode will challenge that belief—in the best way.
