E77: New Year, New Deposit Strategy

This past year marked a turning point in my journey as an in-home dentist when I received my first one-star Google review after years of house calls with five-star feedback. While some could view it as a setback, it offered invaluable insights. The review originated from an encounter with a patient who had severe scent sensitivities, which required me to adjust not only my professional protocols but even my personal hygiene routines. Despite my many efforts to meet his unique needs, the situation unraveled, leading the patient to demand a refund of his $50 dollar deposit. When my assistant politely explained that the deposit was non-refundable a negative review followed quickly. It was a moment that highlighted that going above and beyond might not always meet everyone's expectations, but it also taught me to set firmer boundaries. Determined not to let one unfavorable experience define my practice, I made essential changes to our booking process. By increasing the deposit from $50 to $200 for new patient reservations, I effectively filtered out those who might cancel or reschedule casually. This move underscored the unique value of in-home dental care and attracted patients who truly appreciated the service. It was a bold step, but it paid off. Business surged with patients who respected both my time and expertise, and cash flow improved without needing a price hike for the services themselves. Ultimately, this experience has taught me that adjusting business practices to reflect one’s worth is vital. The lesson I learned is essential for any professional: ensure that the logistics of your service support your passion's sustainability. Changing the deposit protocol not only optimized the patient experience but also enhanced my peace of mind. As my practice, AccommoDental, continues to thrive, I want to share this insight with fellow practitioners considering or already offering niche services like in-home visits. Don't shy away from asking for what you need to make your work fulfilling and financially viable. Happy New Year and best wishes in 2025!

Exactly what I'd prioritise if I wanted to go from £4-5k months to £10k+ cash months

In this episode, I share exactly what I’d prioritise if I wanted to go from 4-5k months and double my revenue to 10k+ cash months. And I share how we can do this WITHOUT you launching new offers, throwing out discounts, hustling or handling objections in the DMs. All of these things are going to take you down the path to burnout, and you’re still going to be attracting clients who fill you with dread every time you open up Telegram. When you’ve removed the barriers that are stopping your best clients from investing today, and your messaging articulates exactly why they're going to thrive with you, you'll attract these clients like clockwork. If you’re done with the spaghetti throwing and asking what MORE you need to be doing to double your income and you want a mentor who will help you to implement everything I’ve said so far in a hands on way (AKA I’m all up in your google docs, making direct edits to your copy), you need to be in my 1:1 mentorship. DM me on Instagram to chat about my 1:1 mentorship: https://www.instagram.com/annarumbold.co/

Joe Biden's Domestic Policy Legacy

During his presidency, Joe Biden achieved significant legislative victories, including the American Rescue Plan Act and the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, which aimed to address pandemic recovery and improve infrastructure. His Build Back Better agenda focused on human capital investments but faced challenges in Congress, leading to a scaled-back version with the Inflation Reduction Act and the Chips and Science Act. Despite these achievements, inflation and border policy remained contentious issues, highlighting the complexities of Biden's domestic policy legacy and the potential implications of a future Trump-led administration.

Biden's domestic policy record reflects a series of significant legislative achievements aimed at economic recovery, but public perception remains heavily influenced by inflation and cost of living pressures, presenting a complex narrative for the upcoming elections.
The American Rescue Plan Act, despite being divisive and criticized for large spending, played a crucial role in providing economic relief during the pandemic and reducing poverty for many American families.

Government Shutdown Averted, German Christmas Market Attack, Netflix And The NFL

Congress successfully passed a short-term spending package to avert a government shutdown, overcoming significant GOP opposition, particularly related to the debt ceiling. A tragic car attack occurred at a Christmas market in Magdeburg, Germany, killing five and raising questions about the attacker's motives. Chancellor Scholz emphasized national solidarity while investigations continue. In media news, Netflix aims to stream NFL events live during Christmas and has secured rights for future FIFA Women's World Cups, although their cautious approach reflects past challenges in sports streaming.

The bipartisan short-term spending deal represents an effort to maintain government functionality amidst political tensions. The complexities of legislative actions are magnified by influential figures like Trump and Musk.
The struggle over the debt ceiling reveals deeper fractures within the Republican Party, showcasing division in strategy and priorities, especially with respect to upcoming elections.

GOP Stopgap Bill Fails, Battle For Ukrainian Town, Syria's Interim Government

As Congress faces a looming deadline to fund the government, Republican divisions emerge exacerbated by influences from Elon Musk and Donald Trump, leading to the rejection of a bipartisan funding plan. Meanwhile, the battle for the Ukrainian town of Pokrovsk intensifies with significant Russian military losses, posing risks to nearby urban centers. In Syria, the rebel group HTS is grappling with forming an inclusive government after the fall of Assad, as citizens express desires for a secular state through recent protests.

Congress faces significant challenges in reaching a consensus for federal funding, marked by partisan divisions exacerbated by external influences. This reflects a broader difficulty in governance where non-political actors can derail legislative processes.

Hopeful or Hopeless??

Miranda asked me, “What do I do? My spouse is hopeless that we can save our marriage. I’m losing hope, too." A while back, I did a training for members of my VIP Program, noting three barriers in the way of a spouse working on the marriage… along with how to respond. One of those barriers is hopelessness. But if a spouse is hopeless… how can you hold onto hope? There is an equation of hope: hope = goal + pathways to goal + action to get there. If you noticed from the equation, a spouse (you) can choose hope, even when a spouse is hopeless. Especially if you recognize that the hopeless spouse cannot see that goal… cannot see a way forward (a path)… and therefore, can’t see a way to take action. There are traps at each of those three elements of hope… and if one is not present, it isn’t really hope. So, let’s talk about how to grab each element, keep it in place, and keep moving forward.

‘A Sword and a Shield’: How the Supreme Court Supercharged Trump’s Power

Recent Supreme Court decisions have significantly expanded presidential power, particularly through immunity protections for actions taken in office, allowing Trump a 'sword' for decisive action and a 'shield' against accountability. The implications of this power shift are examined, especially regarding presidential control over executive agencies and the recent overruling of the Chevron doctrine, which alters regulatory authority. The conversation highlights the implications for governance and individual liberties, amid a growing skepticism towards administrative capacities and a potential weakening of the regulatory state.

Recent Supreme Court decisions have significantly shifted the balance of power towards the presidency, granting expansive authority and reducing constraints on presidential actions.
The ruling in Trump vs. United States exemplifies a critical transformation in presidential immunity, raising concerns about the implications for accountability and oversight within the federal government.
